< Psalms 55 >
1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, [A Psalm] of David. Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication.
Fún adarí orin. Pẹ̀lú ohun èlò orin olókùn. Maskili ti Dafidi. Fi etí sí àdúrà mi, Ọlọ́run, má ṣe fi ojú pa ẹ̀bẹ̀ mi rẹ́:
2 Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise;
gbọ́ mi kí o sì dá mi lóhùn. Èrò mi ń dà mí láàmú, èmi sì ń pariwo.
3 Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.
Sí ohùn àwọn ọ̀tá ni, nítorí igbe àwọn ènìyàn búburú; nítorí wọ́n mú ìjìyà wá sórí mi, wọ́n sì kẹ́gàn mi nínú ìbínú wọn.
4 My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.
Ọkàn mi wà nínú ìrora pẹ̀lú; ẹ̀rù ikú kọjú ìjà sí mi.
5 Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
Ìbẹ̀rù àti ìwárìrì wa sí ara mi; ìbẹ̀rù ti bò mí mọ́lẹ̀.
6 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! [for then] would I fly away, and be at rest.
Èmi sọ pé, “Èmi ìbá ní ìyẹ́ bí àdàbà! Èmi ìbá fò lọ kí n sì sinmi.
7 Lo, [then] would I wander far off, [and] remain in the wilderness. (Selah)
Èmi ìbá sálọ, jìnnà réré, kí ń sì dúró sí aginjù;
8 I would hasten my escape from the windy storm [and] tempest.
èmi ìbá yára lọ́ si ibùgbé mi ní ibi ààbò, jìnnà kúrò nínú ìjì àti ẹ̀fúùfù líle.”
9 Destroy, O Lord, [and] divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
Da àwọn ẹni búburú láàmú, Olúwa, da ahọ́n wọn rú, nítorí èmi rí ìwà agbára àti ìjà ní ìlú náà.
10 Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow [are] in the midst of it.
Ọ̀sán àti òru ni wọ́n fi ń rìn gbogbo odi kiri; ìwà ìkà àti èébú wà láàrín rẹ̀.
11 Wickedness [is] in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart not from her streets.
Ìwà búburú ń bẹ ní àárín rẹ̀; ẹ̀tàn àti èké kò kúrò ní ìgboro rẹ̀.
12 For [it was] not an enemy [that] reproached me; then I could have borne [it: ] neither [was it] he that hated me [that] did magnify [himself] against me; then I would have hid myself from him:
Tí ọ̀tá bá tàbùkù mi, èmi yóò fi ara mọ́ ọn; tí ọ̀tá bá gbé ara rẹ̀ ga sí mi, èmi ìbá sá pamọ́ fún un.
13 But [it was] thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance.
Ṣùgbọ́n tí ó bá ṣe ìwọ, ọkùnrin bí ẹgbẹ́ mi, ẹlẹgbẹ́ mi, àti ọ̀rẹ́ tí ó súnmọ́ mi,
14 We took sweet counsel together, [and] walked unto the house of God in company.
pẹ̀lú ẹni tí èmi ti jẹ ìgbádùn adùn ìdàpọ̀, bí a ṣe ń rìn pẹ̀lú àwùjọ ní ilé Ọlọ́run.
15 Let death seize upon them, [and] let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness [is] in their dwellings, [and] among them. (Sheol )
Kí ikú kí ó dé bá wọn, kí wọn ó lọ láààyè sí isà òkú, jẹ́ kí wọn ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí ibojì pẹ̀lú ìpayà, nítorí tí ìwà búburú ń bẹ ní ibùjókòó wọn, àti nínú wọn. (Sheol )
16 As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.
Ṣùgbọ́n èmi pe Ọlọ́run; Olúwa yóò sì gbà mí.
17 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.
Ní alẹ́, ní òwúrọ̀ àti ní ọ̀sán èmi sọkún jáde nínú ìpọ́njú, o sì gbọ́ ohùn mi.
18 He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle [that was] against me: for there were many with me.
Ó rà mí padà láìléwu kúrò nínú ogun tí ó dìde sí mi, nítorí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ni ó dìde sí mi.
19 God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. (Selah) Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.
Ọlọ́run yóò gbọ́, yóò sì pọ́n wọn lójú àní, ẹni tí ó ti jókòó láti ìgbàanì (Sela) nítorí tí wọn kò ní àyípadà, tí wọn kò sì bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run.
20 He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he hath broken his covenant.
Ọ̀rẹ́ mi yìí ti dalẹ̀ èmi ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀; ó ti ba májẹ̀mú rẹ̀ jẹ́.
21 [The words] of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war [was] in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet [were] they drawn swords.
Ọ̀rọ̀ ẹnu rẹ̀ kúnná ju òrí-àmọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ogun wà ni àyà rẹ̀; ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ fẹ́lẹ́ ju òróró lọ, ṣùgbọ́n idà fífàyọ ní wọn.
22 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
Gbé ẹrù rẹ lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa yóò sì mú ọ dúró; òun kò ní jẹ́ kí olódodo ṣubú.
23 But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee.
Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ, Ọlọ́run, ni yóò mu àwọn ọ̀tá mi wá sí ihò ìparun; àwọn ẹni tí òǹgbẹ ẹ̀jẹ̀ ń gbẹ àti ẹni ẹ̀tàn, kì yóò gbé ààbọ̀ ọjọ́ wọn. Ṣùgbọ́n fún èmi, èmi gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ọ.
