Abụ Ọma 81

1 Abụ Ọma nke dịrị onyeisi Abụ. Abụ nke Asaf nʼusoro gittit. Bụkuo Chineke bụ ike anyị abụ ọṅụ, tikusie Chineke Jekọb mkpu ike!

To him that excelleth upon Gittith. A Psalme committed to Asaph. Sing ioyfully vnto God our strength: sing loude vnto the God of Iaakob.

2 Bidonụ iti egwu, kụọ ihe iti egwu, kpọọnụ ụbọ akwara na-enye abụ ụtọ na une.

Take the song and bring forth the timbrel, the pleasant harpe with the viole.

3 Fụọnụ opi ike nʼoge ọnwa ọhụrụ, na mgbe ọnwa gbapụtara nʼuju ya, nʼụbọchị mmemme anyị;

Blowe the trumpet in the newe moone, euen in the time appointed, at our feast day.

4 nke a bụ iwu dịrị Izrel, ụkpụrụ Chineke nke Jekọb.

For this is a statute for Israel, and a Law of the God of Iaakob.

5 O mere ka o guzosie ike dịka iwu nye Josef mgbe ọ pụrụ imegide Ijipt. Anụkwara m olu nʼasụsụ nke m na-amaghị, ka ọ na-asị:

Hee set this in Ioseph for a testimonie, when hee came out of the land of Egypt, where I heard a language, that I vnderstoode not.

6 “Ewezugala m ibu arọ site nʼubu ha; aka ha abụọ nwere onwe ha site nʼịrụ ọrụ.

I haue withdrawen his shoulder from the burden, and his handes haue left the pots.

7 Nʼime ihe mgbu unu, unu kpọrọ oku, anapụtara m unu, azara m unu site nʼegbe eluigwe; anwara m unu na mmiri nke Meriba. (Sela)

Thou calledst in affliction and I deliuered thee, and answered thee in the secret of the thunder: I prooued thee at the waters of Meribah. (Selah)

8 “Nụrụnụ, ndị m, aga m adọ unu aka na ntị, a sịkwarị na unu ga-ege m ntị, unu ndị Izrel!

Heare, O my people, and I wil protest vnto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken vnto me,

9 Unu agaghị enwe chi ndị mba ọzọ nʼetiti unu; unu agaghị akpọkwa isiala nye chi si ala ọzọ.

Let there bee no strange god in thee, neither worship thou any strange god.

10 Abụ m Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu, onye kpọpụtara unu site nʼala Ijipt. Meghe ọnụ unu ka ọ saa mbara, aga m emeju ya.

For I am the Lord thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide and I will fill it.

11 “Ma ndị m ekweghị ige m ntị. Izrel emekwaghị dịka m gwara ha.

But my people would not heare my voyce, and Israel would none of me.

12 Ya mere, ahapụrụ m ha na ndụ isiike ha, ka ha soro nchepụta nke echiche ha.

So I gaue them vp vnto the hardnesse of their heart, and they haue walked in their owne cousels.

13 “Ewoo, a sị na ndị m gaara ege m ntị, a sịkwa na Izrel ga-eso ụzọ m niile.

Oh that my people had hearkened vnto me, and Israel had walked in my wayes.

14 Ọ gaghị adị anya mgbe m ga-eji ike m, wezuga ndị iro ya site nʼọnọdụ ha. Aga m eweli aka m, megide ndị iro ya niile.

I would soone haue humbled their enemies, and turned mine hand against their aduersaries.

15 Ndị niile kpọrọ Onyenwe anyị asị, ga-ada nʼihu ya nʼụjọ. Ịta ahụhụ ha ga-adịgidekwa, ruo ebighị ebi.

The haters of the Lord should haue bene subiect vnto him, and their time should haue endured for euer.

16 Ma a ga-eji ụtụ ọka wiiti kachasị mma, nyejuo unu afọ; aga m ejikwa mmanụ aṅụ nke sitere nʼoke nkume, nyejuo unu afọ.”

And God would haue fedde them with the fatte of wheat, and with honie out of the rocke would I haue sufficed thee.
