< Abụ Ọma 83 >
1 Abụ, bụ Abụ Ọma Asaf. O! Chineke agbachikwala nkịtị. Biko, Chineke, ahapụkwala ikwu okwu, anọkwala jụụ.
Keep not you silence, O God: hold not your peace, and be not still, O God.
2 Lee na ndị iro gị nọ na-ebigbọ, ndị kpọrọ gị asị na-eweli isi ha.
For, see, your enemies make a tumult: and they that hate you have lifted up the head.
3 Ha ji aghụghọ na-agba izu imegide ndị gị; ha na-atụ atụmatụ ọjọọ megide ndị ị hụrụ nʼanya.
They have taken crafty counsel against your people, and consulted against your hidden ones.
4 Ha na-asị, “Bịanụ ka anyị laa mba a nʼiyi, ka a ghara ichetakwa aha Izrel ọzọ.”
They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
5 Ha ji otu obi na-agbarịta izu; ha agbaala ndụ imegide gị,
For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against you:
6 ụlọ ikwu niile nke ndị Edọm, na ndị Ishmel, na ndị Moab, na ndị Haga,
The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7 na ndị Gebal, na ndị Amọn, na ndị Amalek, na ndị Filistia, ha na ndị Taịa.
Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 Ọ bụladị ndị Asịrịa esorokwala ha, ịgba ndị agbụrụ Lọt ume. (Sela)
Assur also is joined with them: they have helped the children of Lot. (Selah)
9 Mee ha dịka i si mee ndị Midia, na dịka i mere Sisera na Jabin, nʼakụkụ iyi Kishọn,
Do to them as to the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
10 ndị lara nʼiyi nʼEndoa ma ghọọ ihe dịka nsị anụ e kpofuru ekpofu nʼala.
Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.
11 Mee ka ndị ọgaranya ha dịka Oreb na Zeeb, ka ụmụ ndị ikom eze ha niile dịka Zeba na Zalmuna,
Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yes, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
12 ndị sịrị, “Ka anyị nwetara onwe anyị, ebe ịta nri ụmụ anụmanụ niile nke Chineke.”
Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
13 O Chineke m, mee ha ka dịka ahịhịa ifufe na-efegharị gburugburu, maọbụ dịka igbugbo ọka nʼebe ifufe dị.
O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
14 Dịka ọkụ na-erepịa oke ọhịa, maọbụ nke na-ere nʼelu ugwu,
As the fire burns a wood, and as the flame sets the mountains on fire;
15 si otu a were oke ifufe chụọ ha ọsọ, jiri oke ifufe nke na-eso mmiri ozuzo mee ka ha nọrọ nʼọnọdụ obi ọlụlọ mmiri.
So persecute them with your tempest, and make them afraid with your storm.
16 Were ihere kpuchie ha ihu, ka ndị mmadụ si otu a chọọ aha gị, O Onyenwe anyị.
Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek your name, O LORD.
17 Ka ha nọdụ nʼọnọdụ ihere na ịda mba mgbe niile; ka ha laa nʼiyi nʼọnọdụ mweda nʼala.
Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yes, let them be put to shame, and perish:
18 Mee ka ha mata na gị, onye aha ya bụ Onyenwe anyị, na ọ bụ naanị gị bụ Onye kachasị ihe niile elu nʼụwa niile.
That men may know that you, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, are the most high over all the earth.
