Psalms 71
1 In You, O YHWH, I have trusted, Do not let me be disappointed for all time.
Nínú rẹ, Olúwa, ni mo ní ààbò; má ṣe jẹ́ kí ojú kí ó tì mí.
2 You deliver me in Your righteousness, And cause me to escape, Incline Your ear to me, and save me.
Gbà mí kí o sì tú mi sílẹ̀ nínú òdodo rẹ; dẹ etí rẹ sí mi, kí o sì gbà mí.
3 Be a rock to me—a habitation, To go in continually, You have given command to save me, For You [are] my rock and my bulwark.
Jẹ́ àpáta ààbò mi, níbi tí èmi lè máa lọ, pa àṣẹ láti gbà mí, nítorí ìwọ ni àpáta àti odi agbára mi.
4 O my God, cause me to escape From the hand of the wicked, From the hand of the perverse and violent.
Gbà mí, Ọlọ́run mi, lọ́wọ́ àwọn olùṣe búburú, ní ọwọ́ aláìṣòdodo àti ìkà ọkùnrin.
5 For You [are] my hope, O Lord YHWH, My trust from my youth.
Nítorí ìwọ jẹ́ ìrètí mi, Olúwa Olódùmarè, ìwọ ni ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé mi láti ìgbà èwe.
6 I have been supported from the womb by You, You cut me out from my mother’s bowels, My praise [is] continually in You.
Mo gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ọ láti ìgbà ìbí mi; Ìwọ mú mi jáde láti inú ìyá mi wá èmi ó máa yìn ọ́ títí láé.
7 I have been as a wonder to many, And You [are] my strong refuge.
Mo di àmì fún ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ ni ààbò mi tí ó lágbára.
8 My mouth is filled [with] Your praise, All the day [with] Your beauty.
Ìyìn rẹ̀ kún ẹnu mi, ó ń sọ ti ọlá rẹ ní ọjọ́ gbogbo.
9 Do not cast me off at the time of old age, Do not forsake me according to the consumption of my power.
Má ṣe ta mí nù ní ọjọ́ ogbó mi, má ṣe kọ̀ mí sílẹ̀ nígbà tí kò sí okun mọ́.
10 For my enemies have spoken against me, And those watching my soul have taken counsel together,
Nítorí àwọn ọ̀tá mi ń sọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí mi, àwọn tí wọn dúró láti pa mí gbìmọ̀ pọ̀.
11 Saying, “God has forsaken him, Pursue and catch him, for there is no deliverer.”
Wọ́n wí pé, “Ọlọ́run ti kọ̀ ọ́ sílẹ̀; lépa rẹ̀ kí ẹ sì mu, nítorí kò sí ẹni tí yóò gbà á.”
12 O God, do not be far from me, O my God, make haste for my help.
Má ṣe jìnnà sí mi, Ọlọ́run; wa kánkán, Ọlọ́run mi, láti ràn mí lọ́wọ́.
13 They are ashamed, they are consumed, Who are opposing my soul, They are covered [with] reproach and blushing, Who are seeking my evil,
Jẹ́ kí wọn kí ó dààmú, kí a sì run àwọn tí ń ṣe ọ̀tá ọkàn mi kí a sì fi ẹ̀gàn àti àbùkù bo àwọn tí ń wá ìpalára mi.
14 And I continually wait with hope, And have added to all Your praise.
Ṣùgbọ́n ní tèmi, ìgbà gbogbo ní ìrètí mi; èmi ó yìn ọ́ síwájú àti síwájú sí i.
15 My mouth recounts Your righteousness, All the day Your salvation, For I have not known the numbers.
Ẹnu mi yóò sọ nípa ti òdodo rẹ, ti ìgbàlà rẹ, ni gbogbo ọjọ́, lóòtítọ́, èmi kò mọ iye rẹ̀.
16 I come in [the] might of Lord YHWH, I mention Your righteousness—Yours alone.
Èmi ó wá láti wá kéde agbára, Olúwa Olódùmarè; èmi ó kéde òdodo rẹ̀ nìkan.
17 God, You have taught me from my youth, And until now I declare Your wonders.
Láti ìgbà èwe, Ọlọ́run ni ìwọ ti kọ́ mi títí di òní ni mo ń sọ ti iṣẹ́ ìyanu rẹ.
18 And also to old age and grey hairs, O God, do not forsake me, Until I declare Your strength to a generation, Your might to everyone that comes.
Pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú, nígbà tí èmi di arúgbó tán tí mo sì hewú, má ṣe kọ̀ mí sílẹ̀, Ọlọ́run mi, títí èmi ó fi ipá rẹ han ìran tí ń bọ̀, àti agbára rẹ fún gbogbo àwọn tí ń bọ̀ lẹ́yìn.
19 And Your righteousness, O God, [is] to the heights, Because You have done great things, O God, who [is] like You?
Ọlọ́run, òdodo rẹ dé ọ̀run, ìwọ tí o ti ṣe ohun ńlá. Ta ni ó dàbí rẹ, Ọlọ́run?
20 Because You have showed me many and sad distresses, You turn back—You revive me, And from the depths of the earth, You turn back—You bring me up.
Pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú ìwọ ti mú mi rí ìdààmú, tí ó pọ̀ tí ó sì korò, ìwọ yóò tún sọ ayé mi jí ìwọ yóò sì tún mú mi sọ sókè láti ọ̀gbun ilẹ̀ wá. Ìwọ yóò sọ ọlá mi di púpọ̀.
21 You increase my greatness, And You surround—You comfort me,
Ìwọ yóò fi kún ọwọ́ mi ìwọ yóò tù mí nínú ní ha gbogbo.
22 I also thank You with a vessel of stringed instrument, Your truth, O my God, I sing to You with a harp, O Holy One of Israel,
Èmi yóò fi dùùrù mi yìn fún òtítọ́ rẹ, Ọlọ́run mi; èmi ó kọrin ìyìn sí ọ pẹ̀lú dùùrù ìwọ ẹni mímọ́ Israẹli.
23 My lips cry aloud when I sing praise to You, And my soul that You have redeemed,
Ètè mi yóò kígbe fún ìyìn nígbà tí mo bá kọrin ìyìn sí ọ: èmi, ẹni tí o rà padà.
24 My tongue also utters Your righteousness all the day, Because ashamed—because confounded, Have been those seeking my evil!
Ahọ́n mi yóò sọ ti òdodo rẹ ní gbogbo ọjọ́, fún àwọn tí ó fẹ́ pa mí lára, a sì dójúti àwọn tí ń wá ìdààmú mi.
