Psalms 78
1 [A contemplation by Asaph.] Hear my teaching, my people. Turn your ears to the words of my mouth.
Maskili ti Asafu. Ẹ̀yin ènìyàn mi, ẹ gbọ́ ẹ̀kọ́ mi; tẹ́tí rẹ sí ọ̀rọ̀ ẹnu mi.
2 I will open my mouth in a parable. I will utter dark sayings since the beginning of the world,
Èmi ó la ẹnu mi ní òwe, èmi o sọ ohun ìkọ̀kọ̀, ohun ti ọjọ́ pípẹ́;
3 which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us.
ohun tí a ti gbọ́ tí a sì ti mọ̀, ohun tí àwọn baba wa ti sọ fún wa.
4 We will not hide them from their descendants, telling to the generation to come the praises of the LORD, his strength, and his wondrous works that he has done.
Àwa kì yóò pa wọ́n mọ́ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ àwọn ọmọ, ní fífi ìyìn Olúwa, àti ipa rẹ̀ àti iṣẹ́ ìyanu tó ti ṣe hàn fún ìran tí ń bọ̀.
5 For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a teaching in Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children;
Ó gbé ẹ̀rí kalẹ̀ ní Jakọbu o sì fìdí àṣẹ múlẹ̀ ní Israẹli, èyí tí ó pàṣẹ fún àwọn baba ńlá wa láti kọ́ àwọn ọmọ wọn,
6 that the generation to come might know it, the children yet unborn, and arise and tell their children,
nítorí náà, àwọn ìran tí ń bọ̀ yóò mọ̀ wọ́n bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ọmọ tí a kò tí ì bí tí yóò dìde tí wọn yóò sọ fún àwọn ọmọ wọn.
7 that they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments,
Nígbà náà ni wọ́n ò fi ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé wọn sínú Ọlọ́run wọn kò sì ní gbàgbé iṣẹ́ Ọlọ́run ṣùgbọ́n wọn ó pa àṣẹ rẹ̀ mọ́.
8 and might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation, a generation that did not make their hearts loyal, whose spirit was not steadfast with God.
Kí wọn kí ó má ṣe dàbí àwọn baba ńlá wọn, ìran alágídí àti ọlọ́tẹ̀, ìran tí ọkàn wọn kò ṣọ òtítọ́ si olóore, àti ẹ̀mí ẹni tí kò bá Ọlọ́run dúró ṣinṣin.
9 The people of Ephraim, being armed and carrying bows, turned back in the day of battle.
Àwọn ọkùnrin Efraimu, tí ó há mọ́ ọ tí wọ́n mú ọrun, wọ́n yípadà ní ọjọ́ ogun
10 They did not keep God's covenant, and refused to walk by his Law.
Wọn kò pa májẹ̀mú Ọlọ́run mọ́ wọn sì kọ̀ láti máa gbé nínú òfin rẹ̀.
11 They forgot his doings, his wondrous works that he had shown them.
Wọ́n gbàgbé ohun tí ó ti ṣe, àwọn ìyanu tí ó ti fihàn wọ́n.
12 He did marvelous things in the sight of their fathers, in the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan.
Ó ṣe ìyanu níwájú àwọn baba wọn ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, ní agbègbè Ṣoani.
13 He split the sea, and caused them to pass through. He made the waters stand as a heap.
Ó pín òkun ní yà, ó sì mú wọn kọjá Ó mù kí omi náà dúró bi odi gíga.
14 In the daytime he also led them with a cloud, and all night with a light of fire.
Ní ọ̀sán, ó fi ìkùùkuu àwọsánmọ̀ ṣe amọ̀nà wọn àti ní gbogbo òru pẹ̀lú ìmọ́lẹ̀ iná.
15 He split rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink abundantly as out of the depths.
Ó sán àpáta ní aginjù ó sì fún wọn ní omi mímu lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀ bí ẹni pé láti inú ibú wá.
16 He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run down like rivers.
Ó mú ìṣàn omi jáde láti inú àpáta omi ṣíṣàn sílẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí odò.
17 Yet they still went on to sin against him, to rebel against the Most High in the desert.
Wọ́n sì tún tẹ̀síwájú láti dẹ́ṣẹ̀ sí i ní ìṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Ọ̀gá-ògo ní aginjù.
18 They tempted God in their heart by asking food according to their desire.
Wọ́n mọ̀ ọ́n mọ̀ dán Ọlọ́run wò nípa bíbéèrè fún oúnjẹ tí wọn bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún.
19 Yes, they spoke against God. They said, "Can God prepare a table in the wilderness?
Wọ́n sọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí Ọlọ́run, wí pé “Ọlọ́run ha lè tẹ́ tábìlì ní aginjù?
20 Look, he struck the rock, so that waters gushed out, and streams overflowed. Can he give bread also? Will he provide flesh for his people?"
Nígbà tí ó lu àpáta, omi tú jáde, odò sì sàn lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀ ṣùgbọ́n òun ha lè fún wa lóúnjẹ ó ha le pèsè ẹran fún àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀?”
21 Therefore the LORD heard, and was angry. A fire was kindled against Jacob, anger also went up against Israel,
Nígbà tí Olúwa gbọ́ wọn, ó bínú gidigidi; iná rẹ̀ sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí Jakọbu, ìbínú rẹ̀ sì rú sí Israẹli,
22 because they did not believe in God, and did not trust in his salvation.
nítorí wọn kò gba Ọlọ́run gbọ́, wọn kò sì gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ìgbàlà rẹ̀.
23 Yet he commanded the clouds above, and opened the doors of heaven.
Síbẹ̀ ó pàṣẹ fún ìràwọ̀ ojú ọ̀run, ó sì ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn ọ̀run sílẹ̀;
24 He rained down manna on them to eat, and gave them bread from heaven.
Ó rọ manna fún àwọn ènìyàn láti jẹ, ó fún wọn ní ọkà láti ọ̀run.
25 Man ate the bread of the mighty ones. He sent them food to the full.
Àwọn ènìyàn jẹ oúnjẹ àwọn angẹli; Ó fún wọn ní oúnjẹ ní àjẹyó,
26 He caused the east wind to blow in the sky. By his power he guided the south wind.
Ó mú afẹ́fẹ́ ìlà-oòrùn láti ọ̀run wá ó mú afẹ́fẹ́ gúúsù wá nípa agbára rẹ̀.
27 He rained also flesh on them as the dust; winged birds as the sand of the seas.
Ó rọ òjò ẹran sílẹ̀ sórí wọn bí erùpẹ̀ ilẹ̀, àti ẹyẹ abìyẹ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí iyanrìn etí òkun
28 He let it fall in the midst of his camp, all around his tent.
Ó jẹ́ kí wọn jáde ní ibùdó wọn, yíká àgọ́ wọn.
29 So they ate, and were well filled. He gave them their own desire.
Wọ́n jẹ, wọ́n sì yó jọjọ nítorí ó ti fún wọn ní ohun tí wọn fìtara bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún.
30 They did not turn from their cravings. Their food was yet in their mouths,
Ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò kúrò nínú oúnjẹ tí wọn fìtara bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún, nígbà tí oúnjẹ wọn sì wà ní ẹnu wọn,
31 when the anger of God went up against them, killed some of the fattest of them, and struck down the young men of Israel.
ìbínú Ọlọ́run dìde sí wọn ó pa àwọn tí ó jùlọ nínú wọn, ó sì lu àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin Israẹli bolẹ̀.
32 For all this they still sinned, and did not believe in his wondrous works.
Nínú gbogbo ìwọ̀nyí, wọ́n ń dẹ́ṣẹ̀ síwájú; nínú gbogbo iṣẹ́ ìyanu rẹ̀, wọ́n kò gbàgbọ́.
33 Therefore he consumed their days in vanity, and their years in terror.
O fi òpin sí ayé wọn nínú asán àti ọdún wọn nínú ìpayà.
34 When he killed them, then they inquired after him. They returned and sought God earnestly.
Nígbàkígbà tí Ọlọ́run bá pa wọ́n, wọn yóò wá a kiri; wọn yóò fi ìtara yípadà sí i.
35 They remembered that God was their rock, the Most High God, their redeemer.
Wọ́n rántí pé Ọlọ́run ní àpáta wọn; wí pé Ọlọ́run Ọ̀gá-ògo jùlọ ni olùràpadà àpáta wọn.
36 But they flattered him with their mouth, and lied to him with their tongue.
Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà náà ni wọ́n yóò pọ́n ọn pẹ̀lú ẹnu wọ́n wọ́n fi ahọ́n wọ́n purọ́ fún un;
37 For their heart was not right with him, neither were they faithful in his covenant.
ọkàn wọn kò sòtítọ́ sí i, wọn kò jẹ́ olódodo sí májẹ̀mú rẹ̀.
38 But he, being merciful, forgave iniquity, and did not destroy them. Yes, many times he turned his anger away, and did not stir up all his wrath.
Síbẹ̀ ó ṣàánú; ó dárí àìṣedéédéé wọn jì òun kò sì pa wọ́n run nígbà púpọ̀ ló ń yí ìbínú rẹ̀ padà kò sì ru ìbínú rẹ̀ sókè
39 He remembered that they were but flesh, a wind that passes away, and doesn't come again.
Ó rántí pé ẹlẹ́ran ara ni wọ́n, afẹ́fẹ́ tó ń kọjá tí kò lè padà.
40 How often they rebelled against him in the wilderness, and grieved him in the desert.
Nígbà gbogbo ní wọn ń ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí i ní aginjù wọn mú un bínú nínú ilẹ̀ tí ó di ahoro!
41 They turned again and tempted God, and gave pain to the Holy One of Israel.
Síwájú àti síwájú wọ́n dán Ọlọ́run wò; wọ́n mú ẹni mímọ́ Israẹli bínú.
42 They did not remember his hand, nor the day when he redeemed them from the adversary;
Wọ́n kò rántí agbára rẹ̀: ní ọjọ́ tí ó rà wọ́n padà lọ́wọ́ àwọn aninilára,
43 how he set his signs in Egypt, his wonders in the field of Zoan,
ní ọjọ́ tí ó fi iṣẹ́ ìyanu rẹ̀ hàn ní Ejibiti, àti iṣẹ́ àmì rẹ̀ ni ẹkùn Ṣoani
44 he turned their rivers into blood, and their streams, so that they could not drink.
Ó sọ omi wọn di ẹ̀jẹ̀; wọn kò lè mu láti odò wọn.
45 He sent among them swarms of flies, which devoured them; and frogs, which destroyed them.
Ó rán ọ̀wọ́ eṣinṣin láti pa wọ́n run, àti ọ̀pọ̀lọ́ tí ó bá wọn jẹun.
46 He gave also their increase to the caterpillar, and their labor to the locust.
Ó fi ọkà wọn fún láńtata, àwọn ìre oko wọn fún eṣú.
47 He destroyed their vines with hail, their sycamore fig trees with frost.
Ó fi yìnyín ba àjàrà wọn jẹ́ ó bá èso sikamore wọn jẹ́.
48 He gave over their livestock also to the hail, and their flocks to hot thunderbolts.
Ó fi ohun ọ̀sìn wọn fún yìnyín, agbo ẹran wọn fún mọ̀nàmọ́ná.
49 He threw on them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, indignation, and trouble, and a band of destroying angels.
Ó mú kíkorò ìbínú rẹ̀ wá sí wọn lára, ìrunú àti ìkáàánú, àti ìpọ́njú, nípa rírán angẹli apanirun sí wọn.
50 He made a path for his anger. He did not spare their soul from death, but gave their life over to the pestilence,
Ó pèsè ipa fún ìbínú rẹ̀, òun kò gbà wọ́n lọ́wọ́ ikú, ṣùgbọ́n ó fi ẹ̀mí wọ́n fún àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn.
51 and struck all the firstborn in Egypt, the chief of their strength in the tents of Ham.
Ó kọlu àwọn àkọ́bí ọmọ ọkùnrin Ejibiti, olórí agbára wọn nínú àgọ́ Hamu.
52 But he led forth his own people like sheep, and guided them in the wilderness like a flock.
Ṣùgbọ́n ó mú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ jáde bí ọ̀wọ́ ẹran; ó ṣọ́ wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí àgùntàn nínú aginjù.
53 He led them safely, so that they weren't afraid, but the sea overwhelmed their enemies.
Ó dáàbò bò wọ́n dáradára, nítorí náà ni ẹ̀rù kò ṣe bà wọ́n ṣùgbọ́n òkun padé mọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá wọn.
54 He brought them to the border of his sanctuary, to this mountain, which his right hand had taken.
Bákan náà ni ó mú wọn wá sí etí ilẹ̀ mímọ́ rẹ̀ òkè tí ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ̀ ti gbà
55 He also drove out the nations before them, allotted them for an inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.
Ó lé kèfèrí jáde níwájú wọn ó sì fi títa okùn pín ilẹ̀ náà fún wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilẹ̀ ìní; ó mú àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli jókòó ní ilẹ̀ wọn.
56 Yet they tempted and rebelled against the Most High God, and did not keep his testimonies;
Ṣùgbọ́n wọn dán Ọlọ́run wò wọn sì ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Ọ̀gá-ògo; wọn kò pa àṣẹ rẹ̀ mọ́.
57 but turned back, and dealt treacherously like their fathers. They were turned aside like a deceitful bow.
Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n yípadà, wọn jẹ́ aláìṣòdodo gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn baba wọn wọ́n sì pẹ̀yìndà sí apákan bí ọrun ẹ̀tàn.
58 For they provoked him to anger with their high places, and moved him to jealousy with their engraved images.
Wọ́n bí i nínú pẹ̀lú ibi gíga wọn; wọn rú owú rẹ̀ sókè nípa òrìṣà wọn.
59 When God heard this, he was angry, and greatly abhorred Israel;
Nígbà tí Ọlọ́run gbọ́ wọn, inú bí i gidigidi; ó kọ Israẹli pátápátá.
60 So that he forsook the tabernacle at Shiloh, the tent where he dwelt among men;
Ó kọ àgọ́ Ṣilo sílẹ̀, àgọ́ tí ó ti gbé kalẹ̀ láàrín àwọn ènìyàn.
61 and delivered his strength into captivity, his glory into the adversary's hand.
Ó rán àpótí ẹ̀rí, agbára rẹ̀ lọ sí ìgbèkùn, dídán ògo rẹ̀ lọ sí ọwọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá.
62 He also gave his people over to the sword, and was angry with his inheritance.
Ó fi àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ lé idà lọ́wọ́, ó sì bínú sí àwọn ohun ìní rẹ̀.
63 Fire devoured their young men. Their virgins had no wedding song.
Iná run àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin wọn, àwọn ọmọbìnrin wọn kò sì ní orin ìgbéyàwó:
64 Their priests fell by the sword, and their widows couldn't weep.
àfi àlùfáà wọn fún idà, àwọn opó wọn kò sì le è sọkún.
65 Then the Lord awakened as one out of sleep, like a mighty man who shouts by reason of wine.
Olúwa sì jí gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹni ojú oorun, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọkùnrin ti i jí kúrò nínú ìraníyè ọtí.
66 He struck his adversaries backward. He made them a permanent shame.
Ó kọlu àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀ padà; ó fi wọn sínú ìtìjú ayérayé.
67 Moreover he rejected the tent of Joseph, and did not choose the tribe of Ephraim,
Nígbà náà ni ó kọ́ àgọ́ Josẹfu, kò sì yan ẹ̀yà Efraimu,
68 But chose the tribe of Judah, Mount Zion which he loved.
ṣùgbọ́n ó yan ẹ̀yà Juda, òkè Sioni, èyí tí ó fẹ́ràn.
69 He built his sanctuary like the heights, like the earth which he has established forever.
Ó kọ́ ibi mímọ́ rẹ̀, ibi gíga, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ayé tí ó fi ìdí rẹ̀ múlẹ̀ títí láé.
70 He also chose David his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds;
Ó yan Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ó mú láti inú àwọn agbo ẹran;
71 from following the ewes that have their young, he brought him to be the shepherd of Jacob his servant, and Israel his inheritance.
Ó mú un jáde nínú ìtọ́jú àgùntàn láti jẹ́ olùṣọ́-àgùntàn àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ Jakọbu àti Israẹli ogún un rẹ̀.
72 So he was their shepherd according to the integrity of his heart, and guided them by the skillfulness of his hands.
Dafidi sì ṣọ́ wọn pẹ̀lú òtítọ́ inú ọkàn; pẹ̀lú ọwọ́ òye ni ó fi darí wọn.
