Psalms 37
1 A Psalm of David. Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, neither be thou envious against them that work unrighteousness.
Ti Dafidi. Má ṣe ìkanra nítorí àwọn olùṣe búburú, kí ìwọ má sì ṣe ṣe ìlara nítorí àwọn oníṣẹ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀;
2 For they shall soon wither like the grass, and fade as the green herb.
nítorí pé wọn yóò gbẹ bí i koríko, wọn yóò sì rẹ̀ dànù bí ewéko tútù.
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; dwell in the land, and cherish faithfulness.
Gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa, kí o sì máa ṣe rere; torí pé ìwọ yóò gbé ilẹ̀ náà, kí o sì gbádùn ààbò rẹ̀.
4 So shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and He shall give thee the petitions of thy heart.
Ṣe inú dídùn sí Olúwa; òun yóò sì fún ọ ní ìfẹ́ inú rẹ̀.
5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in Him, and He will bring it to pass.
Fi ọ̀nà rẹ lé Olúwa lọ́wọ́; gbẹ́kẹ̀lé pẹ̀lú, òun yóò sì ṣe é.
6 And He will make thy righteousness to go forth as the light, and thy right as the noonday.
Yóò sì mú kí òdodo rẹ̀ jáde bí ìmọ́lẹ̀ òwúrọ̀, àti ìdájọ́ rẹ̀ bí ọ̀sán gangan.
7 Resign thyself unto the LORD, and wait patiently for Him; fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
Ìwọ dákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́ níwájú Olúwa, kí o sì fi sùúrù dúró dè é; má ṣe ṣe ìkanra nítorí àwọn tí ń rí rere ní ọ̀nà wọn, nítorí ọkùnrin náà ti mú èrò búburú ṣẹ.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; fret not thyself, it tendeth only to evil-doing.
Fàsẹ́yìn nínú inúbíbí, kí o sì kọ ìkáàánú sílẹ̀, má ṣe ṣe ìkanra, kí ó má ba à ṣé búburú pẹ̀lú.
9 For evil-doers shall be cut off; but those that wait for the LORD, they shall inherit the land.
Nítorí tí á ó gé àwọn olùṣe búburú kúrò, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn tí ó bá dúró de Olúwa àwọn ni yóò jogún ilẹ̀ náà.
10 And yet a little while, and the wicked is no more; yea, thou shalt look well at his place, and he is not.
Síbẹ̀ nígbà díẹ̀ sí i, àwọn ènìyàn búburú kì yóò sí mọ̀; nítòótọ́ ìwọ yóò fi ara balẹ̀ wo ipò rẹ̀, wọn kì yóò sí níbẹ̀.
11 But the humble shall inherit the land, and delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọlọ́kàn tútù ni yóò jogún ilẹ̀ náà, wọn yóò sì máa ṣe inú dídùn nínú ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àlàáfíà.
12 The wicked plotteth against the righteous, and gnasheth at him with his teeth.
Ènìyàn búburú di rìkíṣí sí olóòtítọ́, wọ́n sì pa eyín wọn keke sí wọn;
13 The Lord doth laugh at him; for He seeth that his day is coming.
ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa rẹ́rìn-ín sí àwọn ènìyàn búburú, nítorí tí ó rí wí pé ọjọ́ wọn ń bọ̀.
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow; to cast down the poor and needy, to slay such as are upright in the way;
Ènìyàn búburú fa idà yọ, wọ́n sì tẹ àwọn ọrun wọn, láti sọ tálákà àti aláìní kalẹ̀, láti pa àwọn tí ó dúró ṣinṣin.
15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
Idà wọn yóò wọ àyà wọn lọ, àti wí pé ọrun wọn yóò sì ṣẹ́.
16 Better is a little that the righteous hath than the abundance of many wicked.
Ohun díẹ̀ tí olódodo ní, sàn ju ọ̀pọ̀ ọrọ̀ ènìyàn búburú;
17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken; but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.
nítorí pé a óò ṣẹ́ ọwọ́ àwọn ènìyàn búburú, ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa gbé olódodo sókè.
18 The LORD knoweth the days of them that are wholehearted; and their inheritance shall be for ever.
Olúwa mọ àwọn ọjọ́ àwọn tó dúró ṣinṣin, àti wí pé ilẹ̀ ìní wọn yóò wà títí ayérayé.
19 They shall not be ashamed in the time of evil; and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
Ojú kì yóò tì wọ́n ní àkókò ibi, àti ní ọjọ́ ìyàn, a ó tẹ́ wọn lọ́rùn.
20 For the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs — they shall pass away in smoke, they shall pass away.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ènìyàn búburú yóò ṣègbé. Àwọn ọ̀tá Olúwa yóò dàbí ẹwà oko tútù; wọn fò lọ; bi èéfín ni wọn yóò fò lọ kúrò.
21 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not; but the righteous dealeth graciously, and giveth.
Àwọn ènìyàn búburú yá, wọn kò sì san án padà, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn olódodo a máa ṣàánú, a sì máa fi fún ni;
22 For such as are blessed of Him shall inherit the land; and they that are cursed of Him shall be cut off.
nítorí àwọn tí Olúwa bá bùkún ni yóò jogún ilẹ̀ náà, àwọn tí ó fi bú ni a ó gé kúrò.
23 It is of the LORD that a man's goings are established; and He delighted in his way.
Ìlànà ìgbésẹ̀ ènìyàn rere wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa wá, o sì ṣe inú dídùn sí ọ̀nà rẹ̀;
24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; for the LORD upholdeth his hand.
bí ó tilẹ̀ ṣubú a kì yóò ta á nù pátápátá, nítorí tí Olúwa di ọwọ́ rẹ̀ mú.
25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
Èmi ti wà ni èwe, báyìí èmi sì dàgbà; síbẹ̀ èmi kò ì tí ì ri kí a kọ olódodo sílẹ̀, tàbí kí irú-ọmọ rẹ̀ máa ṣagbe oúnjẹ.
26 All the day long he dealeth graciously, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.
Aláàánú ni òun nígbà gbogbo a máa yá ni; a sì máa bùsi i fún ni.
27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
Lọ kúrò nínú ibi, kí o sì máa ṣe rere; nígbà náà ni ìwọ yóò gbé ní ilẹ̀ náà títí láéláé.
28 For the LORD loveth justice, and forsaketh not His saints; they are preserved for ever; but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
Nítorí pé Olúwa fẹ́ràn ìdájọ́ òtítọ́, kò sì kọ àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́ rẹ̀ sílẹ̀. Àwọn olódodo ni a ó pamọ́ títí ayérayé, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọmọ ènìyàn búburú ni a ó ké kúrò.
29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
Olódodo ni yóò jogún ilẹ̀ náà, yóò sì máa gbé ibẹ̀ títí ayérayé.
30 The mouth of the righteous uttereth wisdom, and his tongue speaketh justice.
Ẹnu olódodo sọ̀rọ̀ ọgbọ́n, ahọ́n rẹ̀ a sì máa sọ̀rọ̀ ìdájọ́.
31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps slide.
Òfin Ọlọ́run rẹ̀ ń bẹ ní àyà wọn; àwọn ìgbésẹ̀ rẹ̀ kì yóò yẹ̀.
32 The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
Ènìyàn búburú ń ṣọ́ olódodo, Ó sì ń wá ọ̀nà láti pa á.
33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor suffer him to be condemned when he is judged.
Olúwa kì yóò fi lé e lọ́wọ́ kì yóò sì dá a lẹ́bi, nígbà tí a bá ń ṣe ìdájọ́ rẹ̀.
34 Wait for the LORD, and keep His way, and He will exalt thee to inherit the land; when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
Dúró de Olúwa, kí o sì máa pa ọ̀nà rẹ̀ mọ́. Yóò sì gbé ọ lékè láti jogún ilẹ̀ náà; nígbà tí a bá gé àwọn ènìyàn búburú kúrò ìwọ yóò ri.
35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a leafy tree in its native soil.
Èmi ti rí ènìyàn búburú tí ń hu ìwà ìkà, ó sì fi ara rẹ̀ gbilẹ̀ bí igi tútù ńlá,
36 But one passed by, and, lo, he was not; yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
ṣùgbọ́n ní ìṣẹ́jú kan sí i ó kọjá lọ, sì kíyèsi, kò sì sí mọ́; bi ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ wí pé mo wá a kiri, ṣùgbọ́n a kò le è ri.
37 Mark the man of integrity, and behold the upright; for there is a future for the man of peace.
Máa kíyèsi ẹni pípé, kí o sì wo ẹni tó dúró ṣinṣin; nítorí àlàáfíà ni òpin ọkùnrin náà.
38 But transgressors shall be destroyed together; the future of the wicked shall be cut off.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn olùrékọjá ni a ó parun papọ̀; ìran àwọn ènìyàn búburú ni a ó gé kúrò.
39 But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD; He is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
Ìgbàlà àwọn onídùúró ṣinṣin wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa; òun ni ààbò wọn ní ìgbà ìpọ́njú
40 And the LORD helpeth them, and delivereth them; He delivereth them from the wicked, and saveth them, because they have taken refuge in Him.
Olúwa yóò ràn wọ́n lọ́wọ́ yóò sì gbà wọ́n; yóò gbà wọ́n lọ́wọ́ ènìyàn búburú, yóò sì gbà wọ́n là, nítorí tí wọ́n gbẹ́kẹ̀lé e.
