Psalms 41
1 For the end, a Psalm of David. Blessed [is the man] who thinks, on the poor and needy: the Lord shall deliver him in an evil day.
Fún adarí orin. Saamu Dafidi. Ìbùkún ni fún ẹni tí ó ń ro ti aláìní: Olúwa yóò gbà á ní ìgbà ìpọ́njú.
2 May the Lord preserve him and keep him alive, and bless him on the earth, and not deliver him into the hands of his enemy.
Olúwa yóò dáàbò bò ó yóò sì pa ọkàn rẹ̀ mọ́: yóò bùkún fún un ní orí ilẹ̀ kò sì ní fi sílẹ̀ fún ìfẹ́ àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀.
3 May the Lord help him upon the bed of his pain; thou hast made all his bed in his sickness.
Olúwa yóò gbà á lórí àkéte àìsàn rẹ̀ yóò sì mú un padà bọ̀ sípò kúrò nínú àìsàn rẹ̀.
4 I said, O Lord, have mercy upon me; heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.
Ní ti èmi, mo wí pé “Olúwa, ṣàánú fún mi; wò mí sàn, nítorí pé mo ti ṣẹ̀ sí ọ”.
5 Mine enemies have spoken evil against me, [saying], When shall he die, and his name perish?
Àwọn ọ̀tá mi ń sọ̀rọ̀ mi nínú àrankàn, pé, “Nígbà wo ni yóò kú, ti orúkọ rẹ̀ yóò sì run?”
6 And if he came to see [me], his heart spoke vainly; he gathered iniquity to himself; he went forth and spoke in like manner.
Nígbàkígbà tí ẹnìkan bá wá wò mí, wọn ń sọ̀rọ̀ ẹ̀tàn, nígbà tí àyà rẹ̀ bá kó ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ jọ sí ara rẹ̀; nígbà tí ó bá jáde lọ yóò sì máa tàn án kálẹ̀.
7 All my enemies whispered against me; against me they devised my hurt.
Àwọn ọ̀tá mi gbìmọ̀ papọ̀ nípa mi; èmi ni wọ́n ń gbìmọ̀ ibi sí,
8 They denounced a wicked word against me, [saying], Now that he lies, shall he not rise up again?
wọ́n wí pé, “Ohun búburú ni ó dì mọ́ ọn ṣinṣin àti ní ibi tí ó dùbúlẹ̀ sí, kì yóò dìde mọ́.”
9 For even the man of my peace, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, lifted up [his] heel against me.
Pàápàá, ọ̀rẹ́ mi tímọ́tímọ́, ẹni tí mo gbẹ́kẹ̀lé, ẹni tí ó ń jẹ nínú oúnjẹ mi, tí gbé gìgísẹ̀ rẹ̀ sókè sí mi.
10 But thou, O Lord, have compassion upon me, and raise me up, and I shall requite them.
Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ Olúwa, ṣàánú fún mi; gbé mi sókè, kí ń ba lè san fún wọn.
11 By this I know that thou hast delighted in me, because mine enemy shall not rejoice over me.
Èmi mọ̀ pé inú rẹ̀ dùn sí mi, nítorí ọ̀tá mi kò borí mi.
12 But thou didst help me because of [mine] innocence, and hast established me before thee for ever.
Bí ó ṣe tèmi ni ìwọ dì mímú nínú ìwà òtítọ́ mi ìwọ sì gbé mi kalẹ̀ níwájú rẹ títí láé.
13 Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. So be it, so be it.
Olùbùkún ni Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli, láé àti láéláé.
