Abụ Ọma 92

1 Abụ Ọma. Abụ maka ụbọchị izuike. Ọ bụ ihe ziri ezi ito Onyenwe anyị, na iti egwu nye aha gị, gị Onye kachasị ihe niile elu,

IT is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:

2 ikwupụta ịhụnanya gị nʼụtụtụ, na ikwesi ntụkwasị obi gị nʼabalị,

To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,

3 jiri ihe iti egwu ụbọ akwara na une bụọrọ gị abụ dị ụtọ.

Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound.

4 Nʼihi na ị na-eme ka obi dị m ụtọ, site nʼọrụ gị niile, o Onyenwe anyị, Ọ bụ ya mere m ji na-abụ abụ ọṅụ.

For thou, Lord, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.

5 Lee ka ọrụ gị si dị ukwuu, Onyenwe anyị. Leekwa ụdị echiche miri emi ị na-eche.

O Lord, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.

6 Ndị uche kọrọ amaghị nke a, ndị nzuzu enweghị nghọta,

A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.

7 ọ bụ ezie na ndị ajọ omume na-etopụta dịka ahịhịa ndị na-emekwa ajọ ihe na-eto na-awasa, a ga-ala ha nʼiyi ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.

When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:

8 Ma gị, O Onyenwe anyị, bụ onye e buliri elu ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.

But thou, Lord, art most high for evermore.

9 Nʼezie, ndị iro gị niile, Onyenwe anyị, e ndị iro gị niile ga-ala nʼiyi; ndị niile na-eme ajọ ihe ka a ga-achụsasị.

For, lo, thine enemies, O Lord, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

10 I meela ka mpi m dị elu dịka oke ehi na-akpa ike; awụsala m mmanụ dị mma.

But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.

11 Ejirila m anya m abụọ hụ ka e meriri ndị iro m; ejirila m ntị m nụ maka ịla nʼiyi nke ndị iro m afọ tara mmiri.

Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.

12 Ma ndị ezi omume ga-awa igu dịka osisi nkwụ; ha ga-ebukwa ibu dịka osisi ukwu sida nke Lebanọn,

The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13 nke a kụrụ nʼime ụlọ Onyenwe anyị, ha ga-eto, wasaakwa nʼime ogige Chineke anyị.

Those that be planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.

14 Ha ga-amị mkpụrụ, ọ bụladị mgbe ha mere agadi. Ha ga-ejupụtakwa nʼahịhịa ndụ,

They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;

15 na-ekwupụta, “Onyenwe anyị bụ Onye ziri ezi; ọ bụ Oke Nkume m, ọ dịkwaghị ajọ omume dị nʼime ya.”

To shew that the Lord is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
