Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous! Praise is fitting for the upright.
2 Werenụ ụbọ akwara too Onyenwe anyị; werenụ une nke nwere akwara iri kpọọrọ ya egwu.
Give thanks to the LORD with the lyre. Sing praises to him with the harp of ten strings.
3 Bụkuonụ ya abụ ọhụrụ; were ǹka kpọọ ụbọ akwara ma tiekwa mkpu ọṅụ.
Sing to him a new song. Play skilfully with a shout of joy!
4 Nʼihi na okwu Onyenwe anyị niile ziri ezi bụrụkwa eziokwu; o kwesiri ntụkwasị obi nʼọrụ ya niile.
For the LORD’s word is right. All his work is done in faithfulness.
5 Onyenwe anyị na-ahụ ezi omume na ikpe ziri ezi nʼanya; ụwa niile jupụtara nʼịhụnanya ya nke na-enweghị ọgwụgwụ.
He loves righteousness and justice. The earth is full of the loving kindness of the LORD.
6 Ọ bụ site nʼokwu ọnụ Onyenwe anyị ka e ji kee eluigwe niile, jirikwa nkuume nke ọnụ ya mee anwụ, na ọnwa na kpakpando niile.
By the LORD’s word, the heavens were made: all their army by the breath of his mouth.
7 Ọ bụ ya kekwara osimiri niile chịkọta ha nʼotu ebe, kpaa oke ebe ha ga-anọ dịka ụlọakụ dị ukwuu.
He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap. He lays up the deeps in storehouses.
8 Ka ụwa niile tụọ Onyenwe anyị egwu; ka mmadụ niile bi nʼụwa sọpụrụ ya.
Let all the earth fear the LORD. Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9 Nʼihi na o kwuru okwu, okwu ahụ mezukwara; o nyere iwu, iwu ahụ guzokwara chịm.
For he spoke, and it was done. He commanded, and it stood firm.
10 Onyenwe anyị na-emebi atụmatụ mba niile; ọ na-emebi ebumnobi ụmụ mmadụ.
The LORD brings the counsel of the nations to nothing. He makes the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.
11 Atụmatụ Onyenwe anyị na-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, ebumnobi ya ruo ọgbọ niile.
The counsel of the LORD stands fast forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12 Mba a gọziri agọzi ka mba ahụ bụ, bụ ndị Chineke bụ Onyenwe anyị ha; bụ ndị ọ họpụtara ka ha bụrụ ihe nketa ya.
Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance.
13 Onyenwe anyị si nʼeluigwe na-ele ndị mmadụ bi nʼụwa anya. Ọ na-ahụzu ụmụ mmadụ niile anya.
The LORD looks from heaven. He sees all the sons of men.
14 O sitere nʼebe obibi ya na-ele onye ọbụla bi nʼelu ụwa anya.
From the place of his habitation he looks out on all the inhabitants of the earth,
15 Ebe ọ bụ ya kpụrụ obi mmadụ niile nʼotu na otu; ọ na-ahụzu, na-amazukwa ihe niile ha na-eme.
he who fashions all of their hearts; and he considers all of their works.
16 Ọnụọgụgụ ndị agha eze apụghị ịzọpụta ya; o nweghị onye agha ọbụla na-azọpụta onwe ya, site nʼịdị ukwuu nke ike ya.
There is no king saved by the multitude of an army. A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.
17 Ịnyịnya agha ezukwaghị iwetara ndị na-agba ha mmeri nʼagha. Ọ bụ ezie na ịnyịnya dị ike, ma ha apụghị ịzọpụta ndị nwe ha.
A horse is a vain thing for safety, neither does he deliver any by his great power.
18 Ma Onyenwe anyị ji anya ya na-eche ndị niile na-atụ ya egwu nche, ya bụ ndị niile na-atụkwasị obi ha nʼịhụnanya ya, nke na-adịghị agwụ agwụ.
Behold, the LORD’s eye is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his loving kindness,
19 Ọ ga-anapụta ha site nʼaka ọnwụ. Ọ ga-echebekwa ha ọ bụladị nʼoge ụnwụ.
to deliver their soul from death, to keep them alive in famine.
20 Anyị ji olileanya eche Onyenwe anyị; ọ bụ ya bụ inyeaka anyị na ọta anyị.
Our soul has waited for the LORD. He is our help and our shield.
21 Obi anyị na-aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼime ya; nʼihi na anyị tụkwasịrị aha nsọ ya obi.
For our heart rejoices in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
22 O Onyenwe anyị, ka ịhụnanya gị na-adịgidere anyị, dịka olileanya anyị dị na gị.
Let your loving kindness be on us, LORD, since we have hoped in you.
