Abụ Ọma 115
1 Ọ bụghị anyị ka ọ dịrị, o Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụghị anyị ka ọ dịrị, kama ọ bụ aha gị ka ebube na-adịrị, nʼihi ịhụnanya gị na ikwesi ntụkwasị obi gị.
Not to us, Yahweh, not to us, but to your name bring honor, for your covenant faithfulness and for your trustworthiness.
2 Gịnị mere ọtụtụ mba niile nke ụwa ji na-ajụ sị, “Olee ebe Chineke ha nọ?”
Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?”
3 Chineke anyị bi nʼeluigwe. Ọ bụkwa ihe tọrọ ya ụtọ nʼobi ka ọ na-eme.
Our God is in heaven; he does whatever he pleases.
4 Arụsị ha niile bụ ọlaọcha na ọlaedo ka e ji kpụọ ha, ha bụ ọrụ aka mmadụ.
The nations' idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
5 Ha nwere ọnụ ma ha adịghị ekwu okwu, ha nwere anya abụọ ma ha adịghị ahụ ụzọ;
Those idols have mouths, but they do not speak; they have eyes, but they do not see;
6 ha nwere ntị ma ha adịghị anụ ihe, ha nwekwara imi ma ha adịghị anụ isisi ọbụla;
they have ears, but they do not hear; they have noses, but they do not smell.
7 ha nwere aka, ma ha adịghị emetụ ihe ọbụla aka, ha nwere ụkwụ, ma ha adịghị eje ije; ha enweghị ike iji akpịrị ha mee mkpọtụ ọbụla.
Those idols have hands, but do not feel; they have feet, but they cannot walk; nor do they speak from their mouths.
8 Ndị na-eme ha ga-adịkwa ka ha. Ndị na-atụkwasị ha obi ga-adịkwa ka ha.
Those who make them are like them, as is everyone who trusts in them.
9 Ụmụ Izrel, tụkwasịnụ Onyenwe anyị obi ọ bụ onye inyeaka ha na ọta ha.
Israel, trust in Yahweh; he is your help and shield.
10 Ezinaụlọ Erọn, tụkwasịnụ Onyenwe anyị obi. Ọ bụ ya bụ onye inyeaka ha na ọta ha.
House of Aaron, trust in Yahweh; he is your help and shield.
11 Unu ndị na-atụ egwu ya, tụkwasịnụ Onyenwe anyị obi ọ bụ onye inyeaka ha na ọta ha.
You who honor Yahweh, trust in him; he is your help and shield.
12 Onyenwe anyị na-echeta anyị, ọ ga-agọzikwa anyị, ọ ga-agọzi ndị ya bụ Izrel, ọ ga-agọzi ezinaụlọ Erọn,
Yahweh takes notice of us and will bless us; he will bless the family of Israel; he will bless the family of Aaron.
13 ọ ga-agọzi ndị niile na-atụ egwu Onyenwe anyị, ma onye nta ma onye ukwu.
He will bless those who honor him, both young and old.
14 Ka Onyenwe anyị mee ka unu mụbaa, unu na ụmụ unu.
May Yahweh increase your numbers more and more, yours and your descendants'.
15 Ka Onyenwe anyị onye kere eluigwe na elu ụwa gọzie unu.
May you be blessed by Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.
16 Eluigwe niile bụ nke Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụkwa ya nyere ụmụ mmadụ elu ụwa niile.
The heavens belong to Yahweh; but the earth he has given to mankind.
17 Ọ bụghị ndị nwụrụ anwụ na-eto Onyenwe anyị, ndị na-arịda nʼebe ịnọ duu;
The dead do not praise Yahweh, nor do any who go down into silence;
18 ọ bụ anyị ga-aja Onyenwe anyị mma, site ugbu a ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Toonu Onyenwe anyị.
But we will bless Yahweh now and forevermore. Praise Yahweh.
