< Psalms 57 >

1 For the music director. According to “Do Not Destroy.” A psalm (miktam) of David concerning the time he fled from Saul and hid in the cave. Please be kind to me, God! Be kind to me because I come to you for protection. I will shelter under the shadow of your wings until the danger is past.
Fún adarí orin. Ní ohùn “Má ṣe parun.” Ti Dafidi. Miktamu. Nígbà tí ó sá níwájú Saulu lọ sínú ihò òkúta. Ṣàánú fún mi, Ọlọ́run, ṣàánú fún mi, nítorí nínú rẹ ni ààbò ọkàn mí wà. Èmi o fi ààbò mí sí ibi ìyẹ́ apá rẹ títí tí ewu yóò fi kọjá lọ.
2 I cry out for help to God Most High, to God who vindicates me.
Mo kígbe sókè sí Ọlọ́run Ọ̀gá-ògo jùlọ, sí Ọlọ́run tó ń pa májẹ̀mú rẹ̀ mọ́ fún mi.
3 From heaven he sends his help, and he saves me. He defeats those who persecute me. (Selah) God sends me his unfailing love, showing he is completely trustworthy.
Òun yóò ránṣẹ́ láti ọ̀run wá, yóò sì gbà mí, bí ẹni tí ń fẹ́ gbé mi mì tilẹ̀ ń kẹ́gàn mi. Ọlọ́run yóò rán àánú rẹ̀ àti òdodo rẹ̀ jáde.
4 I am surrounded by man-eating lions—I am forced to live with them! Their teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongues are swords.
Mo wà ní àárín àwọn kìnnìún; mo dùbúlẹ̀ ni abẹ́ àwọn ẹ̀dá búburú, àwọn ènìyàn tí eyín wọn dàbí ọ̀kọ̀ àti ọfà ẹni tí ahọ́n rẹ̀ jẹ́ idà mímú.
5 God, your greatness is above the highest heavens; and your glory covers the whole earth!
Kí a yìn ọ́ Ọlọ́run, ju ọ̀run lọ, kí ògo rẹ kò ju ti gbogbo ayé lọ.
6 They set a trap to catch me. I was so depressed. They dug a pit on my path but they were the ones who fell into it. (Selah)
Wọ́n ti ta àwọ̀n sílẹ̀ fún ẹsẹ̀ mi: a tẹ orí ọkàn mi ba nínú ìtìjú, wọ́n gbẹ́ kòtò sí ọ̀nà mi: ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n ti jì síbẹ̀ fún ara wọn.
7 I have confidence in you, God, I have confidence in you. I will sing songs of praise to you.
Ọkàn mi ti múra Ọlọ́run; ọkàn mi ti múra, èmi ó kọrin, èmi ó si máa kọrin ìyìn.
8 I say to myself, “Wake up!” Wake up, harp and lyre! I will wake up the dawn!
Jí, ìwọ ọkàn mi! Jí, ohun orin èlò àti dùùrù! Èmi tìkára mi, yóò sì jí ní kùtùkùtù.
9 I will thank you among the peoples, Lord; I will sing your praises among the nations.
Èmi ó máa yìn ọ́, Olúwa, láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè; èmi ó máa kọrin sí ọ láàrín àwọn ènìyàn.
10 Your faithful love reaches to the heavens; your trustworthiness to the clouds.
Nítorí títóbi ní ìfẹ́ rẹ, tí ó dé ọ̀run; òtítọ́ rẹ tàn dé àwọsánmọ̀.
11 God, your greatness is above the highest heavens; and your glory covers the whole earth!
Gbígbéga ni ọ́, Ọlọ́run, ju àwọn ọ̀run lọ; kí ògo rẹ kí ó ju gbogbo ayé lọ.
