Abụ Ọma 94
1 O Onyenwe anyị, Chineke onye na-abọ ọbọ, o Chineke, onye na-abọ ọbọ, zipụta onwe gị.
O Lord God the auenger, O God the auenger, shewe thy selfe clearely.
2 Bilie, o Onye Ikpe nke ụwa; kwụghachi ndị nganga ụgwọ ọrụ ruuru ha.
Exalt thy selfe, O Iudge of the worlde, and render a reward to the proude.
3 Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụ ruo ole mgbe? Ọ bụ ruo ole mgbe ka ndị na-eme ajọ omume ga-anọgide na-aṅụrị ọṅụ?
Lord how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?
4 Ha na-ekwuwapụ okwu mpako; ndị niile na-eme ajọ ihe jupụtara nʼitu ọnụ.
They prate and speake fiercely: all the workers of iniquitie vaunt themselues.
5 Ha na-azọpịa ndị gị, O Onyenwe anyị; ha na-emegbu ihe nketa gị.
They smite downe thy people, O Lord, and trouble thine heritage.
6 Ha na-egbu ndị di ha nwụrụ na ndị ọbịa; ha na-egbu ndị na-enweghị nna.
They slay the widowe and the stranger, and murder the fatherlesse.
7 Ha na-asị, “Onyenwe anyị anaghị ahụ ihe ndị a; Chineke Jekọb na-agba nkịtị.”
Yet they say, The Lord shall not see: neither will the God of Iaakob regard it.
8 Lezienụ anya, unu ndị amamihe kọrọ nʼetiti ndị m; unu ndị nzuzu, olee mgbe unu ga-amụta ihe?
Vnderstande ye vnwise among the people: and ye fooles, when will ye be wise?
9 Ọ pụtara na onye kpụrụ ntị anaghị anụ ihe? Ọ pụtara na onye kere anya anaghị ahụ ụzọ?
Hee that planted the eare, shall hee not heare? or he that formed the eye, shall he not see?
10 Ọ pụtara na onye na-adọ mba niile aka na ntị agaghị ata ha ahụhụ? Ọ pụtara na onye na-ezi mmadụ ihe enweghị ihe ọmụma?
Or he that chastiseth the nations, shall he not correct? hee that teacheth man knowledge, shall he not knowe?
11 Onyenwe anyị maara echiche obi mmadụ; ọ maara na ihe mmadụ na-eche nʼobi ya bụ naanị ihe na-enweghị isi.
The Lord knoweth the thoughtes of man, that they are vanitie.
12 Onye a gọziri agọzi ka mmadụ ahụ bụ, onye ị na-adọ aka na ntị, O Onyenwe anyị, onye ahụ ị na-akụziri ihe site nʼiwu gị;
Blessed is the man, whom thou chastisest, O Lord, and teachest him in thy Lawe,
13 ị na-enye ya izuike site nʼụbọchị nsogbu; tutu ruo mgbe a ga-egwuru ndị ajọ omume olulu.
That thou mayest giue him rest from the dayes of euill, whiles the pitte is digged for the wicked.
14 Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị agaghị ajụ ndị ya; ọ gaghị agbakụta ihe nketa ya azụ.
Surely the Lord will not faile his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
15 Ezi omume ga-abụ ntọala ikpe ikpe niile; ndị niile ndị ziri ezi nʼobi ga-agbasokwa ya.
For iudgement shall returne to iustice, and all the vpright in heart shall follow after it.
16 Onye ga-ebiliri m imegide ndị ajọ omume? Onye ga-eguzo nʼọnọdụ m imegide ndị na-eme ajọ ihe?
Who will rise vp with me against the wicked? or who will take my part against the workers of iniquitie?
17 A sị na Onyenwe anyị abịaghị nyere m aka, agaara m rịị abụ onye nwụrụ anwụ.
If the Lord had not holpen me, my soule had almost dwelt in silence.
18 Mgbe m kwuru sị, “Ụkwụ m na-agbuchapụ,” ọ bụ ịhụnanya gị, O Onyenwe anyị, kwagidere m.
When I said, My foote slideth, thy mercy, O Lord, stayed me.
19 Mgbe oke nchekasị obi batara nʼime m, nkasiobi gị wetara mkpụrụobi m ọṅụ.
In the multitude of my thoughts in mine heart, thy comfortes haue reioyced my soule.
20 A ga-ejikọta gị na ocheeze ọchịchị ya rụrụ arụ, nke na-eweta mmekpa ahụ site nʼiwu ya?
Hath the throne of iniquitie fellowship with thee, which forgeth wrong for a Lawe?
21 Ndị ajọ omume na-ejikọta onwe ha imegide ndị ezi omume na-amakwa ndị aka ha dị ọcha ikpe ọnwụ.
They gather them together against the soule of the righteous, and condemne the innocent blood.
22 Ma Onyenwe anyị a bụrụla ebe mgbaba e wusiri ike nye m, na Chineke m na oke nkume ebe m na-ezere ndụ.
But the Lord is my refuge, and my God is the rocke of mine hope.
23 Ọ ga-akwụghachi ha ụgwọ ọrụ kwesiri mmehie ha, lakwaa ha nʼiyi nʼihi ajọ omume ha; Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị ga-ala ha nʼiyi.
And hee will recompence them their wickednes, and destroy them in their owne malice: yea, the Lord our God shall destroy them.
