Abụ Ọma 97
1 Onyenwe anyị bụ eze, ka ụwa niile nwee obi ụtọ; ka ndị niile bi nʼebe dị anya ṅụrịa.
For the same David, when his land was restored again to him. The Lord hath reigned, let the earth rejoice: let many islands be glad.
2 Igwe ojii na oke ọchịchịrị gbara ya gburugburu; ezi omume na ikpe ziri ezi bụ ntọala ocheeze ya.
Clouds and darkness are round about him: justice and judgment are the establishment of his throne.
3 Ọkụ na-enwu enwu na-aga nʼihu ya ọ na-erepịasị ndị iro ya nʼakụkụ ya ọbụla.
A fire shall go before him, and shall burn his enemies round about.
4 Amụma ya na-acha chazuo elu ụwa niile; ụwa niile na-ahụ ya na-ama jijiji.
His lightnings have shone forth to the world: the earth saw and trembled.
5 Ugwu niile na-agbaze dịka mmanụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, nʼihu Onyenwe ụwa niile.
The mountains melted like wax, at the presence of the Lord: at the presence of the Lord of all the earth.
6 Eluigwe na-ekwuwapụta ezi omume ya; ndị niile bi nʼụwa na-ahụkwa ebube ya.
The heavens declared his justice: and all people saw his glory.
7 A na-eme ka ihere mee ndị niile na-efe arụsị niile a pịrị apị ofufe, ndị na-anya isi na chi niile e jiri aka mee feenụ ya ofufe, unu chi niile!
Let them be all confounded that adore graven things, and that glory in their idols. Adore him, all you his angels:
8 Zayọn na-anụ ma na-aṅụrịkwa ọṅụ, obodo nta niile nke Juda na-enwekwa obi ụtọ nʼihi ikpe gị, O Onyenwe anyị.
Sion heard, and was glad. And the daughters of Juda rejoiced, because of thy judgments, O Lord.
9 Nʼihi na gị, O Onyenwe anyị, bụ Onye kachasị ihe niile elu nʼụwa niile; ị bụ onye e buliri elu karịa chi ndị ọzọ niile.
For thou art the most high Lord over all the earth: thou art exalted exceedingly above all gods.
10 Ka unu, ndị hụrụ Onyenwe anyị nʼanya, kpọọ ihe ọjọọ asị, nʼihi na ọ na-echebe ndụ ndị nke ya, ndị tụkwasịrị ya obi ma na-anapụtakwa ha site nʼaka ndị ajọ omume.
You that love the Lord, hate evil: the Lord preserveth the souls of his saints, he will deliver them out of the hand of the sinner.
11 Ìhè na-amụkwasị onye ezi omume, ọṅụ na-adịkwa nʼime obi onye na-eme ihe ziri ezi.
Light is risen to the just, and joy to the right of heart.
12 Ṅụrịanụ ọṅụ nʼime Onyenwe anyị, unu ndị ezi omume, tookwanụ aha nsọ ya.
Rejoice, ye just, in the Lord: and give praise to the remembrance of his holiness.
