Psalms 35
1 [By David.] Contend, LORD, with those who contend with me. Fight against those who fight against me.
Ti Dafidi. Olúwa, gbógun ti àwọn tí ń gbóguntì mí; kí o sì kọ ojú ìjà sí àwọn tí ó ń bá mi í jà!
2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for my help.
Di asà àti àpáta mú, kí o sì dìde fún ìrànlọ́wọ́ mi!
3 Brandish the spear and block those who pursue me. Tell my soul, "I am your salvation."
Fa idà àti ọ̀kọ̀ yọ kí o sì dojúkọ àwọn tí ń lé mi. Sọ fún ọkàn mi pé, “Èmi ni ìgbàlà rẹ.”
4 Let those who seek after my soul be disappointed and brought to dishonor. Let those who plot my ruin be turned back and confounded.
Kí wọn kí ó dààmú, kí a sì ti àwọn tí ń lépa ọkàn mi lójú; kí a sì mú wọn padà, kí a sì dààmú àwọn tí ń gbèrò ìpalára mi.
5 Let them be as chaff before the wind, The LORD's angel driving them on.
Jẹ́ kí wọn dàbí ìyàngbò níwájú afẹ́fẹ́, kí angẹli Olúwa kí ó máa lé wọn kiri.
6 Let their way be dark and slippery, The LORD's angel pursuing them.
Jẹ́ kí ọ̀nà wọn kí ó ṣókùnkùn, kí ó sì máa yọ́, kí angẹli Olúwa kí ó máa lépa wọn!
7 For without cause they have hidden their net in a pit for me. Without cause they have dug a pit for my soul.
Nítorí pé, ní àìnídìí ni wọ́n dẹ àwọ̀n wọn sílẹ̀ fún mi, ní àìnídìí ni wọ́n wa kòtò sílẹ̀ fún ọkàn mi.
8 Let destruction come on him unawares. Let his net that he has hidden catch himself. Let him fall into that destruction.
Kí ìparun kí ó wá sí orí rẹ̀ ní òjijì. Àwọ̀n rẹ̀ tí ó dẹ, kí ó mú òun tìkára rẹ̀; kí wọn ṣubú sínú kòtò sí ìparun ara rẹ̀.
9 My soul shall be joyful in the LORD. It shall rejoice in his salvation.
Nígbà náà ni ọkàn mi yóò yọ̀ nínú Olúwa, àní, yóò sì máa yọ̀ nínú ìgbàlà rẹ̀.
10 All my bones shall say, "LORD, who is like you, who delivers the poor from him who is too strong for him; yes, the poor and the needy from him who robs him?"
Gbogbo egungun mi yóò wí pé, “Ta ni ó dàbí ì ìwọ Olúwa? O gba tálákà lọ́wọ́ àwọn tí ó lágbára jù ú lọ, tálákà àti aláìní lọ́wọ́ ẹni tí ń fi ṣe ìkógun?”
11 Unrighteous witnesses rise up. They ask me about things that I do not know about.
Àwọn ẹlẹ́rìí èké dìde; wọ́n ń bi mi ní ohun tí èmi kò mọ̀.
12 They reward me evil for good, to the bereaving of my soul.
Wọ́n fi búburú san ìre fún mi; láti sọ ọkàn mi di òfo.
13 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth. I afflicted my soul with fasting; and my prayer returned into my own bosom.
Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó ṣe ti èmi ni, nígbà tí wọn ń ṣe àìsàn, mo wọ aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀; mo fi àwẹ̀ pọ́n ara mi lójú. Mo gba àdúrà pẹ̀lú ìtẹríba ní oókan àyà mi;
14 I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother. I bowed down mourning, as one who mourns his mother.
èmí ń lọ kiri bí ẹni ń ṣọ̀fọ̀ bí i ẹni wí pé fún ọ̀rẹ́ tàbí ẹ̀gbọ́n mi ni. Èmí tẹríba nínú ìbànújẹ́ bí ẹni tí ń ṣọ̀fọ̀ ìyà rẹ̀.
15 But in my adversity, they rejoiced, and gathered themselves together. The attackers gathered themselves together against me, and I did not know it. They tore at me, and did not cease.
Ṣùgbọ́n nínú ìkọ̀sẹ̀ mi wọ́n sì yọ̀, wọ́n sì kó ara wọn jọ; wọ́n kó ara wọn jọ sí mi; àní àwọn tí èmi kò mọ̀. Wọ́n fà mí ya wọ́n kò sì dákẹ́.
16 When I tripped, they mocked me relentlessly; they gnashed their teeth at me.
Bí àwọn àgàbàgebè tí ń ṣe ẹlẹ́yà ní àpèjẹ wọ́n pa eyín wọn keke sí mi.
17 LORD, how long will you look on? Rescue my soul from their destruction, my precious life from the lions.
Yóò ti pẹ́ tó Olúwa, tí ìwọ yóò máa wò wọ́n lọ? Yọ mí kúrò nínú ìparun wọn, àní ẹ̀mí ì mi kúrò lọ́wọ́ kìnnìún.
18 I will give you thanks in the great assembly. I will praise you among many people.
Nígbà náà ni èmi yóò ṣọpẹ́ fún Ọ nínú àjọ ńlá; èmi yóò máa yìn Ọ́ ní àwùjọ ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn.
19 Do not let those who are my enemies wrongfully rejoice over me; neither let those who hate me without a cause and wink their eyes.
Má ṣe jẹ́ kí àwọn ọ̀tá mi kí ó yọ̀ lórí ì mi; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí o má ṣe àwọn tí ó kórìíra mi ní àìnídìí máa ṣẹ́jú sí mi.
20 For they do not speak peace, but they devise deceitful words against those who are quiet in the land.
Nítorí pé wọn kò sọ ọ̀rọ̀ àlàáfíà, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n lóyún ọ̀rọ̀ ẹ̀tàn sí àwọn ènìyàn dídákẹ́ ilẹ̀ náà.
21 Yes, they opened their mouth wide against me. They said, "Aha. Aha. Our eye has seen it."
Wọ́n ya ẹnu wọn gbòòrò sí mi; wọ́n wí pé, “Háà! Háà! Ojú wa sì ti rí i.”
22 You have seen it, LORD. Do not keep silent. LORD, do not be far from me.
Ìwọ́ ti rí i Olúwa; má ṣe dákẹ́! Olúwa má ṣe jìnnà sí mi!
23 Wake up. Rise up to defend me, my God. My Lord, contend for me.
Dìde! ru ara rẹ̀ sókè fún ààbò mi, àti sí ọ̀ràn mi, Ọlọ́run mi àti Olúwa mi!
24 Vindicate me, LORD my God, according to your righteousness. Do not let them gloat over me.
Ṣe ìdájọ́ mi, Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi, gẹ́gẹ́ bí òdodo rẹ, kí o má sì ṣe jẹ́ kí wọn kí ó yọ̀ lórí mi!
25 Do not let them say in their heart, "Aha. Aha. Our desire." Do not let them say, "We have swallowed him up."
Má ṣe jẹ́ kí wọn wí nínú ara wọn pé, “Háà! A ti rí ohun tí ọkàn wa ń fẹ́!” Má ṣe jẹ́ kí wọn kí ó wí pé, “A ti gbé e mì.”
26 Let them be put to shame and confounded together who rejoice at my calamity. Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor who magnify themselves against me.
Kí ojú kí ó tì wọ́n, kí wọn kí ó sì dààmú pọ̀, àní àwọn tí ń yọ̀ sí ìyọnu mi kí a fi ìtìjú àti àbùkù wọ̀ wọ́n ní aṣọ tí ń gbéraga sí mi.
27 Let them shout for joy and be glad, who favor my righteous cause. And let them say continually, "The LORD be magnified, who delights in the peace of his servant."
Jẹ́ kí àwọn tí ó fẹ́ ìdáláre mi fò fún ayọ̀ àti ìdùnnú; kí wọn máa sọ ọ́ títí lọ, “Pé gbígbéga ni Olúwa, sí àlàáfíà ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀.”
28 My tongue shall talk about your righteousness and about your praise all day long.
Nígbà náà ni ahọ́n mi yóò máa sọ̀rọ̀ òdodo rẹ, àti ìyìn rẹ ní gbogbo ọjọ́.
