Psalms 116
1 I have loved, because the Lord will hear the voice of my prayer.
Èmi fẹ́ràn Olúwa, nítorí ó gbọ́ ohùn mi; ó gbọ́ ẹkún mi fún àánú.
2 Because he hath inclined his ear unto me: and in my days I will call upon him.
Nítorí ó yí etí rẹ̀ padà sí mi, èmi yóò máa pè é ni wọ́n ìgbà tí mo wà láààyè.
3 The sorrows of death have encompassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow: (Sheol h7585)
Okùn ikú yí mi ká, ìrora isà òkú wá sórí mi; ìyọnu àti ìbànújẹ́ borí mi. (Sheol h7585)
4 And I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, deliver my soul.
Nígbà náà ni mo ké pe orúkọ Olúwa: “Olúwa, èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, gba ọkàn mi!”
5 The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy.
Olúwa ní oore-ọ̀fẹ́, ó sì ní òdodo; Ọlọ́run wa kún fún àánú.
6 The Lord is the keeper of little ones: I was little and he delivered me.
Olúwa pa àwọn ọlọ́kàn fífúyẹ́ mọ́ nígbà tí mo wà nínú àìní ńlá, ó gbà mí.
7 Turn, O my soul, into thy rest: for the Lord hath been bountiful to thee.
Padà, ìwọ ọkàn mi, sí ibi ìsinmi rẹ, nítorí Olúwa ṣe dáradára sí ọ.
8 For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling.
Nítorí ìwọ, Olúwa, ti gba ọkàn mi kúrò lọ́wọ́ ikú, ojú mi kúrò lọ́wọ́ omijé, àti ẹsẹ̀ mi kúrò lọ́wọ́ ìṣubú,
9 I will please the Lord in the land of the living.
nítorí èmi yóò máa rìn níwájú Olúwa ní ilẹ̀ alààyè.
10 I have believed, therefore have I spoken; but I have been humbled exceedingly.
Èmi gbàgbọ́; nítorí náà mo wí pé, “èmi rí ìpọ́njú púpọ̀”.
11 I said in my excess: Every man is a liar.
Àti nínú ìdààmú mi mo wí pé, “Èké ni gbogbo ènìyàn”.
12 What shall I render to the Lord, for all the things he hath rendered unto me?
Kí ni èmi yóò san fún Olúwa nítorí gbogbo rere rẹ̀ sí mi?
13 I will take the chalice of salvation; and I will call upon the name of the Lord.
Èmi yóò gbé ago ìgbàlà sókè èmi yóò sì máa ké pe orúkọ Olúwa.
14 I will pay my vows to the Lord before all his people:
Èmi yóò mú ìlérí mi ṣẹ sí Olúwa ní ojú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.
Iyebíye ní ojú Olúwa àti ikú àwọn ẹni mímọ́ rẹ̀.
16 O Lord, for I am thy servant: I am thy servant, and the son of thy handmaid. Thou hast broken my bonds:
Olúwa, nítòótọ́ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ni mo jẹ́; èmi ni ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, ọmọ ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ; ó ti tú mi sílẹ̀ nínú ìdè mi.
17 I will sacrifice to thee the sacrifice of praise, and I will call upon the name of the Lord.
Èmi yóò rú ẹbọ ọpẹ́ sí ọ èmi yóò sì ké pe orúkọ Olúwa.
18 I will pay my vows to the Lord in the sight of all his people:
Èmi yóò mú ìlérí mi sẹ sí Olúwa ní ojú gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀,
19 In the courts of the house of the Lord, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem.
nínú àgbàlá ilé Olúwa ní àárín rẹ̀, ìwọ Jerusalẹmu. Ẹ yin Olúwa.
