Psalms 59
1 For the choirmaster. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Miktam of David, when Saul sent men to watch David’s house in order to kill him. Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; protect me from those who rise against me.
Fún adarí orin. Tí ohùn orin “Má ṣe parun.” Ti Dafidi. Miktamu. Nígbà tí Saulu rán àwọn olùṣọ́ sí ilé Dafidi kí òun bá le rí i pa. Gbà mí lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá à mi, Ọlọ́run; dáàbò bò mí kúrò lọ́dọ̀ àwọn tí ó dìde sí mi.
2 Deliver me from workers of iniquity, and save me from men of bloodshed.
Gbà mí lọ́wọ́ àwọn oníṣẹ́ búburú kí o sì gbà mí lọ́wọ́ àwọn ènìyàn tí ń pòǹgbẹ ẹ̀jẹ̀.
3 See how they lie in wait for me. Fierce men conspire against me for no transgression or sin of my own, O LORD.
Wò ó, bí wọ́n ṣe ba ní bùba dè mí! Àwọn alágbára ń gbìmọ̀ lòdì sí mi kì í ṣe nítorí ìrékọjá mi tàbí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mí, Olúwa.
4 For no fault of my own, they move swiftly to attack me. Arise to help me, and take notice.
Èmi kò ṣe àìṣedéédéé kan, síbẹ̀ wọ́n sáré wọ́n ṣetán láti kọlù mí. Dìde fún ìrànlọ́wọ́ mi, kí o sì wo àìlera mi.
5 O LORD God of Hosts, the God of Israel, rouse Yourself to punish all the nations; show no mercy to the wicked traitors.
Olúwa Ọlọ́run Alágbára, Ọlọ́run Israẹli, dìde fún ara rẹ kí o sì bá àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè wí; má ṣe ṣàánú fún àwọn olùrékọjá búburú nì. (Sela)
6 They return in the evening, snarling like dogs and prowling around the city.
Wọ́n padà ní àṣálẹ́, wọ́n ń gbó bí àwọn ajá, wọ́n ń rìn yí ìlú náà káàkiri.
7 See what they spew from their mouths— sharp words from their lips: “For who can hear us?”
Kíyèsi ohun tí wọ́n tú jáde ní ẹnu: wọn ń tú idà jáde láti ètè wọn, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Ta ni ó lè gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ wa?”
8 But You, O LORD, laugh at them; You scoff at all the nations.
Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ, Olúwa, yóò fi wọ́n rẹ́rìn-ín, Ìwọ ó yọ ṣùtì sí gbogbo àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè.
9 I will keep watch for You, O my strength, because You, O God, are my fortress.
Ìwọ agbára mi, èmi ó máa kọrin ìyìn sí ọ; nítorí ìwọ Ọlọ́run ni ààbò mi,
10 My God of loving devotion will come to meet me; God will let me stare down my foes.
Ọlọ́run àánú mi ni yóò ṣáájú mi. Ọlọ́run yóò sì jẹ́ kí èmi rí ìfẹ́ mi lára àwọn ọ̀tá mi. Yóò sì jẹ́ kí n yọ ayọ̀ ìṣẹ́gun lórí ìfẹ́ àwọn ọ̀tá mi.
11 Do not kill them, or my people will forget. Scatter them by Your power, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.
Ṣùgbọ́n má ṣe pa wọ́n, Olúwa asà wa, kí àwọn ènìyàn mi má ba à gbàgbé. Nínú agbára rẹ, jẹ́ kí wọn máa rìn kiri, kí o sì rẹ̀ wọ́n sílẹ̀.
12 By the sins of their mouths and the words of their lips, let them be trapped in their pride, in the curses and lies they utter.
Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ẹnu wọn, ní ọ̀rọ̀ ètè wọn, kí a mú wọn nínú ìgbéraga wọn. Nítorí èébú àti èké tí wọn ń sọ,
13 Consume them in wrath; consume them till they are no more, so it may be known to the ends of the earth that God rules over Jacob.
pa wọ́n run nínú ìbínú, run wọ́n di ìgbà tí wọn kò ní sí mọ́. Nígbà náà ni yóò di mí mọ̀ dé òpin ayé pé Ọlọ́run jẹ ọba lórí Jakọbu. (Sela)
14 They return in the evening, snarling like dogs and prowling around the city.
Wọ́n padà ní àṣálẹ́, wọn ń gbó bí àwọn ajá wọ́n ń rin ìlú náà káàkiri.
15 They scavenge for food, and growl if they are not satisfied.
Wọ́n ń rin kiri fún oúnjẹ wọ́n sì ń yán nígbà tí wọn kò yó.
16 But I will sing of Your strength and proclaim Your loving devotion in the morning. For You are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.
Ṣùgbọ́n èmi ó kọrin agbára rẹ, n ó kọrin ìfẹ́ rẹ ní òwúrọ̀; nítorí ìwọ ni ààbò mi, ibi ìsádi mi ní ìgbà ìpọ́njú.
17 To You, O my strength, I sing praises, for You, O God, are my fortress, my God of loving devotion.
Ìwọ agbára mi, èmi ó kọrin ìyìn sí ọ; ìwọ, Ọlọ́run, ààbò mi, Ọlọ́run ìfẹ́ mi.
