Abụ Ọma 95

1 Bịanụ ka anyị jiri ọṅụ bụkuo Onyenwe anyị abụ; ka anyị tikuo oke nkume nzọpụta anyị mkpu ọṅụ.

The praise of a Song by David. Come, let us exult in the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to God our Saviour.

2 Ka anyị jiri ekele bịakwute ya jirikwa iti egwu na ịbụ abụ jaa ya mma.

Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise to him with psalms.

3 Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke dị ukwuu, eze ukwuu kachasị chi niile elu.

For the Lord is a great God, and a great king over all gods: for the Lord will not cast off his people.

4 Ebe niile michasịrị emi nke ụwa dị nʼaka ya, ebe kachasị elu nke ugwu niile bụkwa nke ya.

For the ends of the earth are in his hands; and the heights of the mountains are his.

5 Osimiri niile bụ nke ya, nʼihi na ọ bụ ya kere ha, aka ya kpụrụ ala akọrọ niile.

For the sea is his, and he made it: and is hands formed the dry land.

6 Bịanụ ka anyị kpọọ isiala nʼofufe, ka anyị gbuo ikpere nʼala nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, onye kere anyị;

Come, let us worship and fall down before him; and weep before the Lord that made us.

7 nʼihi na ọ bụ Chineke anyị anyị bụkwa ndị ọ na-azụ dịka atụrụ, igwe atụrụ ọ na-elekọta anya. Taa, ọ bụrụ na unu anụ olu ya,

For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.

8 “Unu emela ka obi unu sie ike dịka unu mere na Meriba, maọbụ dịka unu mere nʼụbọchị ahụ na Masa nʼime ọzara,

To-day, if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, according to the day of irritation in the wilderness:

9 ebe nna nna unu ha nwara m, nʼagbanyeghị na ha hụrụ ihe niile m mere.

where your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works.

10 Iri afọ anọ ka m were iwe megide ọgbọ ahụ; ekwuru m sị, ‘Ndị a bụ ndị obi ha na-akpafu akpafu site nʼebe m nọ, ha amatabeghị ụzọ m niile.’

Forty years was I grieved with this generation, and said, They do always err in their heart, and they have not known my ways.

11 Nʼihi nke a, aṅụrụ m iyi nʼiwe, sị, ‘Ha agaghị abanye nʼizuike m ma ọlị.’”

So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.
