Abụ Ọma 83
1 Abụ, bụ Abụ Ọma Asaf. O! Chineke agbachikwala nkịtị. Biko, Chineke, ahapụkwala ikwu okwu, anọkwala jụụ.
A song, [or] Psalm of Asaph. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy 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 lo, thy enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee 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 thy people, and consulted against thy 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 thee,
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.
[Who] perished at En-dor: 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 burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth 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 thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy 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 thy 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 thou, whose name alone [is] JEHOVAH, [art] the most high over all the earth.
