< Psalms 52 >
1 For the end, [a Psalm] of instruction by David, when Doec the Idumean came and told Saul, and said to him, David is gone to the house of Abimelech. Why do you, O mighty man, boast of iniquity in [your] mischief? All the day
Fún adarí orin. Maskili ti Dafidi. Nígbà tí Doegi ará Edomu tọ Saulu lọ láti sọ fún pé, “Dafidi wà ní ilé Ahimeleki.” Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ń ṣe féfé nínú ìwà ìkà, ìwọ alágbára ọkùnrin? Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ń gbéraga nígbà gbogbo, ìwọ ẹni ẹ̀gàn níwájú Ọlọ́run?
2 your tongue has devised unrighteousness; like a sharpened razor you have wrought deceit.
Ahọ́n rẹ̀ ń gbìmọ̀ ìparun; ó dàbí abẹ mímú, ìwọ ẹni tí ń hùwà ẹ̀tàn.
3 You have loved wickedness more than goodness; unrighteousness better than to speak righteousness. (Pause)
Ìwọ fẹ́ràn ibi ju ìre lọ, àti èké ju kí ó sọ òtítọ́ lọ.
4 You has loved all words of destruction, [and] a deceitful tongue.
Ìwọ fẹ́ràn ọ̀rọ̀ ìpanilára gbogbo, ìwọ ahọ́n ẹ̀tàn!
5 Therefore may God destroy you for ever, may he pluck you up and utterly remove you from [your] dwelling, and your root from the land of the living. (Pause)
Ọlọ́run yóò sì lù ọ́ bolẹ̀ láéláé, yóò sì dì ọ́ mú, yóò sì já ọ kúrò ni ibùjókòó rẹ, yóò sì fà ọ́ tu kúrò lórí ilẹ̀ alààyè. (Sela)
6 And the righteous shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him, and say,
Àwọn olódodo yóò rí, wọn yóò sì bẹ̀rù wọn yóò sì rẹ́rìn-ín rẹ̀, wí pé,
7 Behold the man who made not God his help; but trusted in the abundance of his wealth, and strengthened himself in his vanity.
“Èyí ni ọkùnrin náà ti kò fi Ọlọ́run ṣe agbára rẹ̀, bí kò ṣe ni ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ọrọ̀ rẹ̀ ni ó gbẹ́kẹ̀lé, ó sì mu ara rẹ̀ le nínú ìwà búburú rẹ̀.”
8 But I am as a fruitful olive in the house of God: I have trusted in the mercy of God for ever, even for evermore.
Ṣùgbọ́n èmi dàbí igi Olifi tí ó gbilẹ̀ nínú ilé Ọlọ́run; èmi gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ìfẹ́ Ọlọ́run tí kì í kùnà láé àti láéláé.
9 I will give thanks to you for ever, for you have done [it]: and I will wait on your name; for [it is] good before the saints.
Èmi yóò yìn ọ títí fún ohun tí ó ti ṣe; èmi ní ìrètí nínú orúkọ rẹ, nítorí orúkọ rẹ dára. Èmi yóò yìn ọ́ níwájú àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́.
