Abụ Ọma 89
1 Abụ maskil nke Etan, onye Ezra. Aga m abụ abụ banyere oke ịhụnanya Onyenwe anyị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi; aga m eji ọnụ m mee ka ọgbọ niile mara maka ikwesi ntụkwasị obi gị.
[A Psalm] of instruction for Aetham the Israelite. I will sing of your mercies, O Lord, for ever: I will declare your truth with my mouth to all generations.
2 Aga m ekwupụta na ịhụnanya gị na-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi; na i mere ka ikwesi ntụkwasị obi gị, guzosie ike nʼeluigwe.
For you have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: your truth shall be established in the heavens.
3 Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Mụ na onye m họpụtara agbaala ndụ. Aṅụọkwala m iyi nye ohu m Devid sị,
I made a covenant with my chosen ones, I sware to David my servant.
4 ‘Aga m eme ka agbụrụ gị guzosie ike ruo mgbe ebighị ebi meekwa ka ocheeze gị dịgide ruo ọgbọ niile.’” (Sela)
I will establish your seed for ever, and build up your throne to all generations. (Pause)
5 O Onyenwe anyị, eluigwe na-eto ọrụ ebube gị niile, na ikwesi ntụkwasị obi gị, nʼetiti nzukọ ndị dị nsọ.
The heavens shall declare your wonders, O Lord; and your truth in the assembly of the saints.
6 Nʼihi, ọ bụ onye nʼeluigwe niile, ka a ga-eji tụnyere Onyenwe anyị? Onye yiri Onyenwe anyị nʼetiti ndị mmụọ ozi niile?
For who in the heavens shall be compared to the Lord? and who shall be likened to the Lord among the sons of God?
7 Na nzukọ ndị nsọ, Chineke bụ onye a na-atụ oke egwu; ọ dị oke egwu karịa ndị niile gbara ya gburugburu.
God is glorified in the council of the saints; great and terrible toward all that are round about him.
8 O Onyenwe anyị Chineke Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, onye dịka gị? Gị, O Onyenwe anyị, dị ike nke ukwuu, ikwesi ntụkwasị obi gị na-agba gị gburugburu.
O Lord God of hosts, who is like to you? you are mighty, O Lord, and your truth is round about you.
9 Ị na-achị osimiri nke ji ike na-asọ; mgbe ebili mmiri ya na-amali elu; i na-eme ka ha dajụọ.
You rule the power of the sea; and you calm the tumult of its waves.
10 Ị zọpịara Rehab dịka otu nʼime ndị ahụ e gburu egbu; jiri aka gị dị ike chụsasịa ndị iro gị.
You has brought down the proud as one that is slain; and with the arm of your power you has scattered your enemies.
11 Ọ bụ gị nwe eluigwe; gị nwekwa ụwa, ọ bụ gị tọrọ ntọala elu ụwa dum, na ihe niile dị nʼime ya.
The heavens are your, and the earth is your: you have founded the world, and the fullness of it.
12 Ọ bụ gị kere ugwu na ndịda; Taboa na Hemon na-abụ abụ ọṅụ nʼihi aha gị.
You have created the north and the west: Thabor and Hermon shall rejoice in your name.
13 Aka gị ka e mejupụtara nʼike; aka gị dị ike, a na-ebuli aka nri gị elu.
Your is the mighty arm: let your hand be strengthened, let your right hand be exalted.
14 Ezi omume na ikpe ziri ezi, bụ ntọala ocheeze gị; ịhụnanya na ikwesi ntụkwasị obi, na-aga nʼihu gị.
Justice and judgment are the establishment of your throne: mercy and truth shall go before your face.
15 Ndị a gọziri agọzi ka ndị ahụ bụ ndị na-eji olu iti mkpu ọṅụ na-abụku gị abụ, ndị na-ejegharịkwa nʼìhè nke ihu gị, O Onyenwe anyị.
Blessed is the people that knows the joyful sound: they shall walk, O Lord, in the light of your countenance.
16 Ha na-aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼaha gị ogologo ụbọchị niile; ha na-aṅụrị nʼezi omume gị.
And in your name shall they rejoice all the day: and in your righteousness shall they be exalted.
17 Nʼihi na ị bụ ebube na ike ha, site nʼihuọma gị, ị na-ebuli mpi anyị elu.
For you are the boast of their strength; and in your good pleasure shall our horn be exalted,
18 Nʼezie, ọta anyị bụ nke Onyenwe anyị, eze anyị bụkwa nke Onye nsọ Izrel.
for [our] help is of the Lord; and of the Holy One of Israel, our king.
19 I kwuru okwu otu mgbe site nʼọhụ, nye ndị gị kwesiri ntụkwasị obi sị: “Enyela m otu onye dị ike agha ike; Ebuliela m otu nwa okorobịa elu site nʼetiti ndị m.
Then you spoke in vision to your children, and said, I have laid help on a mighty one; I have exalted one chosen out of my people.
20 Achọtala m Devid ohu m, were mmanụ nsọ m tee ya.
I have found David my servant; I have anointed him by [my] holy mercy.
21 Aka m ga-agba ya ume; nʼezie, aka m ga-eme ka ọ dị ike.
For my hand shall support him; and mine arm shall strengthen him.
22 Ọ dịghị onye iro ga-abịakwasị ya, na mberede; ọ dịghị onye ajọ omume ga-emegbu ya.
The enemy shall have no advantage against him; and the son of transgression shall not hurt him again.
23 Aga m etigbu ndị iro ya niile nʼihu ya. Aga m emekwa ka ndị niile na-akpọ ya asị laa nʼiyi.
And I will hew down his foes before him, and put to flight those that hate him.
24 Ịhụnanya m kwesiri ntụkwasị obi ga-adịnyere ya, site nʼaha m, a ga-ebuli mpi ya elu.
But my truth and my mercy shall be with him; and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
25 M ga-edo aka ya nʼoke osimiri, dokwaa aka nri ya nʼosimiri niile.
And I will set his hand in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
26 Ọ ga-akpọ m sị m, ‘Ị bụ Nna m, bụrụkwa Chineke m, na oke Nkume nzọpụta m.’
He shall call upon me, [saying], You are my Father, my God, and the helper of my salvation.
27 Aga m eme ya nwa mbụ m, onye kachasị dị elu nʼebe eze niile nke ụwa nọ.
And I will make him [my] firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.
28 Aga m eme ka ịhụnanya m nwere nʼebe ọ nọ dịgide ruo ebighị ebi, ọgbụgba ndụ mụ na ya ga-adịgidekwa.
I will keep my mercy for him for ever, and my covenant [shall be] firm with him.
29 Aga m eme ka agbụrụ ya guzosie ike ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, ocheeze ya ga-adịgidekwa dịka eluigwe na-adịgide.
And I will establish his seed for ever and ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30 “Ọ bụrụ na ụmụ ya elefuo iwu m niile anya, gharakwa ijegharị nʼụzọ m niile,
If his children should forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;
31 ọ bụrụ na ha elelịa ụkpụrụ m niile anya, hapụkwa idebe ihe m nyere ha nʼiwu,
if they should profane my ordinances, and not keep my commandments;
32 aga m eji mkpọrọ taa ha ahụhụ maka mmehie ha, tikwaa ha ụtarị maka njehie ha;
I will visit their transgressions with a rod, and their sins with scourges.
33 ma agaghị m ewezuga ịhụnanya m, nʼebe ha nọ. Ma ọ bụ laa azụ nʼikwesị ntụkwasị obi m.
But my mercy I will not utterly remove from him, nor wrong my truth.
34 Agaghị m emerụ ọgbụgba ndụ m. Agakwaghị m agbanwe ihe ọbụla siterela nʼọnụ m pụta.
Neither will I by any means profane my covenant; and I will not make void the things that proceed out of my lips.
35 Ejirila m ịdị nsọ m ṅụọ iyi, kpebie na m apụghị ịghara Devid ụgha,
Once have I sworn by my holiness, that I will not lie to David.
36 na agbụrụ ya ga-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, ocheeze ya ga-adịgidekwa nʼihu m ka anyanwụ na-adịgide.
His see shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me;
37 Ọ ga-adịgide ruo ebighị ebi dịka ọnwa. E, dịka ọnwa ahụ, onye akaebe m kwesiri ntụkwasị obi na mbara eluigwe.” (Sela)
and as the moon [that is] established for ever, and as the faithful witness in heaven. (Pause)
38 Ma ị jụla, i werela nlelị jụkwa, i na-ewe iwe dị ukwu megide onye gị e tere mmanụ.
But you have cast off and set at nothing, you has rejected your anointed.
39 Ị jụla ọgbụgba ndụ gị na ohu gị gbara i merụọla okpueze ya nʼime ntụ dị nʼala.
You have overthrown the covenant of your servant; you has profaned his sanctuary, [casting it] to the ground.
40 Ị kụtuola mgbidi gbara ya gburugburu, i meela ka ebe ya niile e wusiri ike bụrụ ihe dapịara adapịa.
You have broken down all his hedges; you have made his strong holds a terror.
41 Ndị niile si ụzọ ahụ na-agafe, ezuruchaala ihe niile o nwere. Ndị agbataobi ya na-akwakwa ya emo.
All that go by the way have spoiled him: he is become a reproach to his neighbors.
42 I meela ka aka nri ndị iro ya dị elu; mekwaa ka ndị iro ya ṅụrịa ọṅụ.
You have exalted the right hand of his enemies; you have made all his enemies to rejoice.
43 I meela ka aka o ji jide mma agha ya sụọ ngọngọ, i nyereghị ya aka mgbe agha dara.
You have turned back the help of his sword, and have not helped him in the battle.
44 I meela ka ịma mma ya gwụsịa. Ị tụdakwala ocheeze ya nʼala.
You have deprived him of glory: you have broken down his throne to the ground.
45 I meela ka ụbọchị ndụ nke okorobịa ya dị mkpụmkpụ. I ji ihere dịka akwa kpuchie ya.
You have shortened the days of his throne: you have poured shame upon him. (Pause)
46 Ruo ole mgbe Onyenwe anyị, ka ị ga-ezonarị onwe gị? Ruo ole mgbe ka iwe gị dị ukwuu ga-eregide dịka ọkụ?
How long, O Lord, will you turn away, for ever? shall your anger flame out as fire?
47 Cheta, na ndụ m bụ ihe na-agafe ngwangwa. Nʼihi ihe efu gịnị ka i ji kee mmadụ niile!
Remember what my being is: for have you created all the sons of men in vain?
48 Olee onye ahụ nwere ike ịdị ndụ ghara ịhụ ọnwụ anya, maọbụ zọpụta onwe ya site nʼike nke ili? (Sela) (Sheol h7585)
What man is there who shall live, and not see death? shall [any one] deliver his soul from the hand of Hades? (Pause) (Sheol h7585)
49 O Onyenwe anyị, olee ebe oke ịhụnanya mbụ dị, nke i sitere nʼikwesị ntụkwasị obi gị ṅụọrọ Devid nʼiyi?
Where are your ancient mercies, O Lord, which you sware to David in your truth?
50 Onyenwe m, cheta otu e si leda ndị ohu gị anya, otu m si anagide nʼime obi m ịchị ọchị niile nke ndị mba niile.
Remember, O Lord, the reproach of your servants, which I have borne in my bosom, [even the reproach] of many nations;
51 O Onyenwe anyị, ịchị ọchị nke ndị iro gị ji akwa m emo, nke ha ji lelịa nzọ ụkwụ niile nke onye gị i tere mmanụ.
wherewith your enemies have reviled, O Lord: wherewith they have reviled the recompense of your anointed.
52 Otuto dịrị Onyenwe anyị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
Blessed be the Lord for ever. So be it, so be it.
