< Psalms 57 >

1 For the end. Destroy not: by David, for a memorial, when he fled from the presence of Saul to the cave. Have mercy, upon me, O God, have mercy upon me: for my soul has trusted in you: and in the shadow of your wings will I hope, until the iniquity have passed away.
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 will cry to God most high; the God who has benefited me. (Pause)
Mo kígbe sókè sí Ọlọ́run Ọ̀gá-ògo jùlọ, sí Ọlọ́run tó ń pa májẹ̀mú rẹ̀ mọ́ fún mi.
3 He sent from heaven and saved me; he gave to reproach them that trampled on me: God has sent forth his mercy and his truth;
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 and he has delivered my soul from the midst of [lions']whelps: I lay down to sleep, [though] troubled. [As for] the sons of men, their teeth are arms and [missile] weapons, and their tongue a sharp sword.
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 Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens; and your glory above all the earth.
Kí a yìn ọ́ Ọlọ́run, ju ọ̀run lọ, kí ògo rẹ kò ju ti gbogbo ayé lọ.
6 They have prepared snares for my feet, and have bowed down my soul: they have dug a pit before my face, and fallen into it [themselves]. (Pause)
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 My heart, O God, [is] ready, my heart [is] ready: I will sing, yes will sing psalms.
Ọkàn mi ti múra Ọlọ́run; ọkàn mi ti múra, èmi ó kọrin, èmi ó si máa kọrin ìyìn.
8 Awake, my glory; awake, lute and harp: I will awake early.
Jí, ìwọ ọkàn mi! Jí, ohun orin èlò àti dùùrù! Èmi tìkára mi, yóò sì jí ní kùtùkùtù.
9 O Lord, I will give thanks to you among the nations: I will sing to you among the Gentiles.
Èmi ó máa yìn ọ́, Olúwa, láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè; èmi ó máa kọrin sí ọ láàrín àwọn ènìyàn.
10 For your mercy has been magnified even to the heavens, and your truth to the clouds.
Nítorí títóbi ní ìfẹ́ rẹ, tí ó dé ọ̀run; òtítọ́ rẹ tàn dé àwọsánmọ̀.
11 Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens; and your glory above all the earth.
Gbígbéga ni ọ́, Ọlọ́run, ju àwọn ọ̀run lọ; kí ògo rẹ kí ó ju gbogbo ayé lọ.
