Psalms 49
1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. Hear this, all you peoples, Give ear, all you inhabitants of the world.
Fún adarí orin. Ti àwọn ọmọ Kora. Saamu. Ẹ gbọ́ èyí, gbogbo ènìyàn! Ẹ fi etí sí i, gbogbo ẹ̀yin aráyé.
2 Both low and high, together rich and needy.
Àti ẹni tí ó ga àti ẹni tí ó kéré tálákà àti ọlọ́lá pẹ̀lú!
3 My mouth speaks wise things, And the meditations of my heart [are] things of understanding.
Ẹnu mi yóò sọ̀rọ̀ ọgbọ́n, èrò láti ọkàn mi yóò mú òye wá
4 I incline my ear to an allegory, I open my riddle with a harp:
èmi yóò dẹ etí mi sílẹ̀ sí òwe, èmi yóò ṣí ọ̀rọ̀ ìkọ̀kọ̀ mi sílẹ̀ lójú okùn dùùrù.
5 Why do I fear in days of evil? The iniquity of my supplanters surrounds me.
Èéṣe ti èmi yóò bẹ̀rù nígbà tí ọjọ́ ibi dé? Nígbà tí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àwọn ajinnilẹ́sẹ̀ mi yí mi ká,
6 Those trusting on their wealth, And in the multitude of their riches, Show themselves foolish.
àwọn tí o gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ọrọ̀ wọn, tí wọn sì ń ṣe ìlérí ni ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ọrọ̀ wọn.
7 A brother ransoms no one at all, He does not give to God his atonement.
Kò sí ọkùnrin tí ó lè ra ẹ̀mí ẹnìkejì rẹ̀ padà tàbí san owó ìràpadà fún Ọlọ́run.
8 And precious [is] the redemption of their soul, And it has ceased for all time.
Nítorí ìràpadà fún ẹni jẹ́ iyebíye kò sì sí iye owó tó tó fún sísan rẹ̀,
9 And still he lives forever, He does not see the pit.
ní ti kí ó máa wà títí ayé láìrí isà òkú.
10 For he sees wise men die, Together the foolish and brutish perish, And have left their wealth to others.
Nítorí ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn rí ọkùnrin ọlọ́gbọ́n tí ó kú, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni aṣiwèrè àti aláìlọ́gbọ́n pẹ̀lú ṣègbé wọ́n sì fi ọrọ̀ wọn sílẹ̀ fún ẹlòmíràn.
11 Their heart [is that] their houses [are] for all time, Their dwelling places from generation to generation. They proclaimed their names over the lands.
Ibojì wọn ni yóò jẹ́ ilé wọn láéláé, ibùgbé wọn láti ìrandíran, wọn sọ orúkọ ilẹ̀ wọn ní orúkọ ara wọn.
12 And man does not remain in honor, He has been like the beasts, they have been cut off.
Ṣùgbọ́n ọkùnrin tí o wà nínú ọlá kò dúró pẹ́ ó sì dàbí ẹranko tí ó ṣègbé.
13 This their way [is] folly for them, And their posterity are pleased with their sayings. (Selah)
Èyí ni òtítọ́ àwọn ènìyàn tí ó gbàgbọ́ nínú ara wọn, àti àwọn tí ń tẹ̀lé wọn, tí ó gba ọ̀rọ̀ wọn. (Sela)
14 They have set themselves as sheep for Sheol, Death afflicts them, And the upright rule over them in the morning, And their form [is] for consumption. Sheol [is] a dwelling for him. (Sheol h7585)
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí àgùntàn ni a tẹ́ wọn sínú isà òkú ikú yóò jẹun lórí wọn; ẹni tí ó dúró ṣinṣin ni yóò, jẹ ọba lórí wọn ní òwúrọ̀. Ẹwà wọn yóò díbàjẹ́, isà òkú ni ibùgbé ẹwà wọn. (Sheol h7585)
Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run yóò ra ọkàn mi padà kúrò nínú isà òkú, yóò gbé mi lọ sọ́dọ̀ òun fún rara rẹ̀. (Sheol h7585)
16 Do not fear when one makes wealth, When the glory of his house is abundant,
Má ṣe bẹ̀rù nígbà tí ẹnìkan bá di ọlọ́rọ̀. Nígbà tí ìyìn ilé rẹ̀ ń pọ̀ sí i.
17 For at his death he receives nothing, His glory does not go down after him.
Nítorí kì yóò mú ohun kan lọ nígbà tí ó bá kú, ògo rẹ̀ kò ní bá a sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí ipò òkú.
18 For he blesses his soul in his life (And they praise you when you do well for yourself).
Nígbà tí ó wà láyé, ó súre fún ọkàn ara rẹ̀. Àwọn ènìyàn yìn ọ́ nígbà tí ìwọ ṣe rere.
19 It comes to the generation of his fathers, They do not see the light forever.
Òun yóò lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ìran àwọn baba rẹ̀ àwọn tí ki yóò ri ìmọ́lẹ̀ ayé.
20 Man in honor, who does not understand, Has been like the beasts, they have been cut off!
Ọkùnrin tí ó ní ọlá tí kò ní òye dàbí ẹranko tí ó ṣègbé.
