Abụ Ọma 50
1 Abụ Ọma Asaf. Onyenwe anyị, Chineke, Onye kachasị chi niile, ekwuola okwu ma kpọkọta ụwa niile, site na ọwụwa anyanwụ ruo na ọdịda ya.
The mighty God, even the LORD, has spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.
2 Chineke na-enwupụta dịka ìhè, site na Zayọn, nke zuruoke nʼime ịma mma.
Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God has shined.
3 Chineke anyị na-abịa, ọ gaghị emechikwa ọnụ; ọkụ na-erepịa erepịa dị nʼihu ya, oke ifufe na-efesi ike gbakwara ya gburugburu.
Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.
4 Ọ na-akpọku eluigwe na ụwa ka o kpee ndị ya ikpe: Ọ na-asị,
He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that he may judge his people.
5 “Chikọtaranụ m ndị m e doro nsọ, bụ ndị mụ na ha ji ịchụ aja gbaa ndụ.”
Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.
6 Eluigwe na-ekwupụta ezi omume ya, nʼihi na Chineke nʼonwe ya bụ onye ikpe. (Sela)
And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge himself. (Selah)
7 “Nụrụnụ, ndị m, m ga-ekwukwa, Izrel, aga m agba ama megide unu, Abụ m Chineke, Chineke unu.
Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against you: I am God, even your God.
8 Anaghị m abara unu mba nʼihi ịchụ aja unu, na aja nsure ọkụ unu nke na-adị m nʼihu oge niile.
I will not reprove you for your sacrifices or your burnt offerings, to have been continually before me.
9 Enweghị m mkpa maka oke ehi unu site nʼụlọ anụmanụ unu maọbụ mkpi site nʼọgba igwe ewu na atụrụ unu,
I will take no bullock out of your house, nor he goats out of your folds.
10 nʼihi na ụmụ anụmanụ niile nke oke ọhịa bụ nke m, ha na ehi niile nọ nʼelu otu puku ugwu.
For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.
11 Amaara m ụmụ nnụnụ niile nọ nʼelu ugwu niile, ihe niile e kere eke nọ nʼọhịa bụ nke m.
I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are mine.
12 Ọ bụrụ na agụụ agụọ m, agaghị m agwa gị ya, nʼihi na ụwa na ihe niile dị nʼime ya bụ nke m.
If I were hungry, I would not tell you: for the world is mine, and the fullness thereof.
13 Ana m ata anụ oke ehi, ka ọ bụ ọbara mkpi ka m ga-aṅụ?
Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
14 “Chụọrọ Chineke aja ekele, mezuo nkwa i kwere Onye kachasị ihe niile elu,
Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay your vows unto the most High:
15 ma kpọkuo m nʼụbọchị nsogbu gị, aga m agbapụta unu, unu ga-enyekwa m nsọpụrụ.”
And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me.
16 Ma Chineke na-agwa ndị na-eme ihe ọjọọ okwu sị, “Olee, nkwuwa okwu unu nwere ịgụgharị iwu m, maọbụ kwupụta ọgbụgba ndụ m nʼọnụ unu?
But unto the wicked God says, What have you to do to declare my statutes, or that you should take my covenant in your mouth?
17 Unu kpọrọ ndụmọdụ m asị, na-atụfekwa okwu m nʼazụ unu.
Seeing you hate instruction, and casts my words behind you.
18 Mgbe unu hụrụ onye ohi, unu na ya na-ejikọta aka; unu na ndị na-akwa iko na-ekekọkwa oke.
When you saw a thief, then you consented with him, and have been partaker with adulterers.
19 Ọnụ unu na-eme ọsịịsọ ikwu okwu ọjọọ, okwu aghụghọ na nke rere ure na-esikwa nʼọnụ unu na-asọpụta dịka iyi.
You give your mouth to evil, and your tongue frames deceit.
20 Unu na-ekwugide ụmụnna unu mgbe niile, na-ekwutọkwa nwanne unu nwoke.
You sit and speak against your brother; you slander your own mother's son.
21 Ihe ndị a ka unu mere ma agbachiri m nkịtị; unu chekwara na adị m ka unu. Ma aga m abara unu mba ma bokwaa unu ebubo unu nʼihu unu.
These things have you done, and I kept silence; you thought that I was altogether such an one as yourself: but I will reprove you, and set them in order before your eyes.
22 “Tụgharịa uche na nke a, unu ndị na-echefu Chineke, ma ọ bụghị ya, aga m adọrisi unu, ọ dịkwaghị onye ga-agbapụta unu.
Now consider this, all of you that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.
23 Onye na-eji ekele achụrụ m aja, na-asọpụrụ m, ọ bụkwa onye na-edozi ụzọ ya, ka m ga-eme ka ọ hụ nzọpụta Chineke.”
Whoso offers praise glorifies me: and to him that orders his conversation aright will I show the salvation of God.
