< Psalms 89 >

1 “A Maskil of Ethan the Ezrachite.” The kindnesses of the Lord will I for ever sing: from generation to generation will I make known thy faithfulness with my mouth.
Maskili ti Etani ará Esra. Èmi kọrin títóbi ìfẹ́ Olúwa títí láé; pẹ̀lú ẹnu mi ní èmi yóò jẹ́ kí a mọ òtítọ́ rẹ láti ìran dé ìran.
2 For I have said, To eternity will kindness be built up: the heavens—yea, in these wilt thou establish thy faithfulness.
Èmi ó wí pé, ìfẹ́ rẹ dúró títí láé, pé ìwọ gbe òtítọ́ rẹ kalẹ̀ ní ọ̀run fúnra rẹ̀.
3 “I have made a covenant with my elect, I have sworn unto David my servant,
Ìwọ wí pé, “Èmi ti dá májẹ̀mú pẹ̀lú àwọn àyànfẹ́ mi mo ti búra fún Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi.
4 Unto eternity will I establish thy seed, and I will build up thy throne, from generation to generation.” (Selah)
‘Èmi ó fi ìdí irú-ọmọ rẹ múlẹ̀ títí láé èmí ó sì máa gbe ìtẹ́ rẹ ró láti ìran dé ìran.’”
5 And the heavens praise thy wonder, O Lord: also thy faithfulness in the assembly of holy ones.
Àwọn ọ̀run yóò máa yin iṣẹ́ ìyanu rẹ, Olúwa, òtítọ́ rẹ ni ìpéjọpọ̀ àwọn ẹni mímọ́.
6 For who in the sky can be compared unto the Lord? who can be likened unto the Lord among the sons of the mighty?
Ta ni ó wà ní ọ̀run tí a lè fiwé Olúwa? Ta ni nínú àwọn ọmọ alágbára ti a lè fiwé Olúwa?
7 God is greatly terrific in the secret council of the holy ones and fear-inspiring over all that are about him.
Nínú àjọ ìgbìmọ̀ ẹni mímọ́, wọ́n bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run gidigidi; ó sì ní ìbùyìn fún ju gbogbo àwọn tí ó yí i ká.
8 O Lord God of hosts, who is powerful, like thee, Eternal! and thy faithfulness is round about thee.
Olúwa Ọlọ́run alágbára, ta ló dàbí rẹ ìwọ jẹ́ alágbára, Olúwa, òtítọ́ rẹ sì yí ọ ká.
9 Thou rulest over the pride of the sea: when its waves are lifted up, thou assuagest them.
Ìwọ ń darí ríru omi Òkun; nígbà tí ó ru àwọn omi sókè, ìwọ mú wọn parọ́rọ́.
10 Thou didst crush Rahab as one that is slain: with thy strong arm didst thou scatter thy enemies.
Ìwọ ni ó ti ya Rahabu pẹ́rẹpẹ̀rẹ bí ẹni tí a pa; ìwọ ti fi apá ọwọ́ agbára rẹ tú àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ ká.
11 Thine are the heavens, also thine is the earth: as for the world and what filleth it, thou hast founded them.
Tìrẹ ní àwọn ọ̀run, ayé pẹ̀lú jẹ́ tìrẹ: ayé àti ohun gbogbo tí ó wà nínú rẹ̀: ìwọ ti gbé wọn kalẹ̀.
12 The north and the south—these hast thou created: Tabor and Chermon shall rejoice in thy name.
Gúúsù àti àríwá ìwọ ni ó dá wọn; Tabori àti Hermoni ń fi ayọ̀ yin orúkọ rẹ.
13 Thine is the powerful arm, with might: strong is thy hand, and exalted is thy right hand.
Ìwọ ní apá agbára; agbára ní ọwọ́ rẹ, gíga ní ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ.
14 Righteousness and justice are the prop of thy throne: kindness and truth precede thy presence.
Òdodo àti òtítọ́ ni ìpìlẹ̀ ìtẹ́ rẹ: ìdúró ṣinṣin ìfẹ́ àti òtítọ́ ń lọ síwájú rẹ.
15 Happy is the people that know the cornet's sound: O Lord, in the light of thy countenance will they ever walk firmly.
Ìbùkún ni fún àwọn ènìyàn tí wọn mọ ohùn ayọ̀ nì, Olúwa wọ́n ó máa rìn ní ìmọ́lẹ̀ ojú rẹ.
16 In thy name will they be glad all the day, and in thy righteousness will they be exalted.
Wọn ń ṣògo nínú orúkọ rẹ̀ ní gbogbo ọjọ́, wọn ń yin òdodo rẹ.
17 For thou art the glory of their strength; and through thy favor will our horn be exalted.
Nítorí ìwọ ni ògo agbára wọn; nípa ojúrere ni ìwo wá ń ṣògo.
18 For of the Lord is our shield; and of the Holy One of Israel is our king.
Nítorí ti Olúwa ni asà wa, ọba wa sì ni Ẹni Mímọ́ Israẹli.
19 Then spokest thou in a vision to thy pious [servant], and saidst, “I have bestowed help to one that is mighty; I have exalted a youth out of the people;
Nígbà náà ni ìwọ sọ̀rọ̀ nínú ìran, sí àwọn olóòtítọ́ rẹ, wí pé, “Èmi ti gbé adé kalẹ̀ sórí ẹni tí ó lágbára, èmi ti gbé ẹni tí a yàn láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn ga.
20 I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him;
Èmi ti rí Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi; pẹ̀lú òróró mímọ́ mi ni mo fi yàn án.
21 With whom my hand shall be firmly established; also my arm shall strengthen him;
Ìgbà gbogbo ni ọwọ́ mi yóò máa wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ apá mí yóò sì fi agbára fún un.
22 The enemy shall not exact from him like a lender: and the son of injustice shall not afflict him:
Àwọn ọ̀tá kì yóò borí rẹ̀, àwọn ènìyàn búburú kì yóò rẹ̀ ẹ́ sílẹ̀.
23 And I will beat down before his face his assailants, and those that hate him will I plague.
Èmi yóò run àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ níwájú rẹ èmi yóò lu àwọn tí ó kórìíra rẹ bolẹ̀.
24 But my faithfulness and my kindness shall be with him: and through my name shall his horn be exalted.
Òtítọ́ mi àti ìdúró ṣinṣin ìfẹ́ yóò wà pẹ̀lú rẹ àti ní orúkọ mi ni a ó gbé ìwo rẹ ga.
25 And I will place on the sea his hand, and on the rivers his right hand.
Èmi ó gbé ọwọ́ rẹ lórí òkun, àti ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ lórí àwọn odo ńlá.
26 He will call unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
Òun yóò kígbe sí mi pé, ‘Ìwọ ni baba mi, Ọlọ́run mi, àti àpáta ìgbàlà mi!’
27 Also I will appoint my first-born, the highest among the kings of the earth.
Èmi yóò ṣe é ni àkọ́bí mi, ẹni gíga ju àwọn ọba ayé.
28 For evermore will I keep for him my kindness, and my covenant shall stand faithfully with him.
Títí láé ni èmi yóò pa ìfẹ́ dídúró ṣinṣin mọ́ fún un, àti májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ yóò dúró gbọingbọin.
29 And I appoint for ever his seed, and his throne as the days of heaven.
Èmi ó fi ìdí irú-ọmọ rẹ̀ múlẹ̀ títí láé, àti ìtẹ́ rẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀run ti wà láé.
30 If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my ordinances;
“Bí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ bá kọ òfin mi sílẹ̀ tí wọn kò sì rìn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìlànà mi.
31 If they profane my statutes, and keep not my commandments:
Tí wọn bá ba ìlànà mi jẹ́ tí wọn kò sì pa àṣẹ mi mọ́,
32 Then will I visit with the rod their transgressions, and with plagues their iniquity.
nígbà náà ni èmi ó fì ọ̀gọ̀ bẹ ìrékọjá wọn wò; àti ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn pẹ̀lú pàṣán;
33 Nevertheless my kindness will I not make utterly void from him, and I will not act falsely against my faithfulness.
ṣùgbọ́n èmi kò ní mú ìfẹ́ mi tí ó dúró ṣinṣin kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kì yóò jẹ́ kí òtítọ́ mi kí ó yẹ̀.
34 I will not profane my covenant, and what is gone out of my lips will I not alter.
Èmi kì yóò sẹ́ májẹ̀mú mi, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kì yóò yí ọ̀rọ̀ tí ó ti ẹnu mi jáde padà.
35 One thing have I sworn by my holiness, that I will not lie unto David.
Lẹ́ẹ̀kan ṣoṣo ni èmi ti fi ìwà mímọ́ mi búra; èmi kì yóò purọ́ fún Dafidi.
36 His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne shall be like the sun before me.
Irú-ọmọ rẹ yóò dúró títí láé, àti ìtẹ́ rẹ̀ yóò dúró bí oòrùn níwájú mi.
37 Like the moon shall it be firmly established for ever, and as this faithful witness in the sky.” (Selah)
A ó fi múlẹ̀ títí láé bí òṣùpá, àti bi ẹlẹ́rìí òtítọ́ ni ọ̀run.” (Sela)
38 And yet thou hast east off and despised, thou hast become wroth with thy anointed.
Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí ìwọ ti ṣá tì, ìwọ sì kórìíra; ìwọ kún fún ìrunú sí ẹni àmì òróró rẹ.
39 Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned, down to the ground, his crown.
Ìwọ ti sọ májẹ̀mú ìránṣẹ́ rẹ di òfo; ìwọ tàbùkù adé rẹ nínú eruku.
40 Thou hast broken down all his fences: thou hast brought his strong-holds to terror.
Ìwọ ti wó gbogbo àwọn odi rẹ̀ ìwọ sọ ibi gíga rẹ̀ di ahoro.
41 All that pass by the way plunder him: he is become a reproach to his neighbors.
Àwọn tí ń kọjá lọ fi ṣe ìjẹ; ó ti di ẹ̀gàn àwọn olùbágbé rẹ̀.
42 Thou hast raised up the right hand of his assailants: thou hast caused all his enemies to rejoice.
Ìwọ ti gbé ọwọ́ ọ̀tún ọ̀tá rẹ̀ sókè; ìwọ mú gbogbo ọ̀tá rẹ̀ yọ̀.
43 Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not let him stand erect in the battle.
Pẹ̀lú, ìwọ ti yí ojú idà rẹ̀ padà, ìwọ kò sì dúró tì í nínú ogun.
44 Thou hast made his brilliancy cease; and his throne hast thou thrown down to the ground.
Ìwọ ti mú ògo rẹ̀ kùnà, ìwọ si wó ìtẹ́ rẹ̀ palẹ̀ sílẹ̀ẹ́lẹ̀.
45 Thou hast shortened the days of his youth: thou hast enshrouded him with shame. (Selah)
Ìwọ ti gé ọjọ́ èwe rẹ̀ kúrú; ìwọ sì fi ìtìjú bò ó.
46 How long, Lord, wilt thou hide thyself, continually? how long shall thy fury burn like fire?
Yóò ti pẹ́ tó, Olúwa? Tí ìwọ ó ha fi ara rẹ pamọ́ títí láé? Yóò ti pẹ́ to tí ìbínú rẹ yóò máa jó bí iná?
47 Remember [what] I am, what my duration is [here], for what nothingness thou hast created all sons of men!
Rántí bí ọjọ́ mi ti kúrú tó nítorí asán ha ni ìwọ fi ṣẹ̀dá àwọn ènìyàn!
48 What man is there that can live, and shall not see death? that can deliver his soul from the power of the nether word? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
Ta ni yóò wà láààyè tí kò ní rí ikú rẹ̀? Ta ló lè sá kúrò nínú agbára isà òkú? (Sheol h7585)
49 Where are thy former kindnesses, O Lord, which thou hast sworn unto David by thy truth?
Olúwa, níbo ni ìṣeun ìfẹ́ rẹ àtijọ́ wà, tí ìwọ ti fi òtítọ́ rẹ búra fún Dafidi?
50 Remember, Lord, the disgrace of thy servants; that I bear in my bosom the [burden] of all the many nations;
Rántí, Olúwa, bí a ti ń gan àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ; bí èmi ti gbà ní àyà mi láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn,
51 That thy enemies have defied, O Lord; that they have defied the footsteps of thy anointed.
ẹ̀gàn tí àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ gàn, Olúwa, tí wọn gan ipasẹ̀ ẹni àmì òróró rẹ.
52 Blessed be the Lord for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
Olùbùkún ní Olúwa títí láé.
