< Psalms 143 >
1 [A Psalm by David.] Hear my prayer, Jehovah. Listen to my petitions. In your faithfulness and righteousness, relieve me.
Saamu ti Dafidi. Olúwa gbọ́ àdúrà mi, fetísí igbe mi fún àánú; nínú òtítọ́ àti òdodo rẹ, wá fún ìrànlọ́wọ́ mi.
2 Do not enter into judgment with your servant, for in your sight no man living is righteous.
Má ṣe mú ìránṣẹ́ rẹ wá sí ìdájọ́, nítorí kò sí ẹnìkan tí ó wà láààyè tí ó ṣe òdodo níwájú rẹ.
3 For the enemy pursues my soul. He has struck my life down to the ground. He has made me live in dark places, as those who have been long dead.
Ọ̀tá ń lépa mi, ó fún mi pamọ́ ilẹ̀; ó mú mi gbé nínú òkùnkùn bí àwọn tí ó ti kú ti pẹ́.
4 Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me. My heart within me is desolate.
Nítorí náà ẹ̀mí mi ṣe rẹ̀wẹ̀sì nínú mi; ọkàn mi nínú mi ṣì pòruurù.
5 I remember the days of old. I meditate on all your doings. I contemplate the work of your hands.
Èmi rántí ọjọ́ tí ó ti pẹ́; èmi ń ṣe àṣàrò lórí gbogbo iṣẹ́ rẹ mo sì ṣe àkíyèsí ohun tí ọwọ́ rẹ ti ṣe.
6 I spread forth my hands to you. My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land. (Selah)
Èmi na ọwọ́ mi jáde sí ọ: òǹgbẹ rẹ gbẹ ọkàn mi bí i ìyàngbẹ ilẹ̀. (Sela)
7 Hurry to answer me, Jehovah. My spirit fails. Do not hide your face from me, so that I do not become like those who go down into the pit.
Dá mi lóhùn kánkán, Olúwa; ó rẹ ẹ̀mí mi tán. Má ṣe pa ojú rẹ mọ́ kúrò lára mi kí èmi má ba à dàbí àwọn tí ó lọ sínú ihò.
8 Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, for I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you.
Mú mi gbọ́ ìṣeun ìfẹ́ rẹ ní òwúrọ̀: nítorí ìwọ ni mo gbẹ́kẹ̀lé. Fi ọ̀nà tí èmi i bá rìn hàn mí, nítorí èmi gbé ọkàn mi sókè sí ọ.
9 Deliver me, Jehovah, from my enemies. I run to you for refuge.
Gbà mí kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá mi, Olúwa, nítorí èmi fi ara mi pamọ́ sínú rẹ.
10 Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.
Kọ́ mi láti ṣe ìfẹ́ rẹ, nítorí ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run mi jẹ́ kí ẹ̀mí rẹ dídára darí mi sí ilẹ̀ tí ó tẹ́jú.
11 Revive me, Jehovah, for your name's sake. In your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble.
Nítorí orúkọ rẹ, Olúwa, sọ mi di ààyè; nínú òdodo rẹ, mú ọkàn mi jáde nínú wàhálà.
12 In your loving kindness, cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul, For I am your servant.
Nínú ìfẹ́ rẹ tí kì í kùnà, ké àwọn ọ̀tá mi kúrò, run gbogbo àwọn tí ń ni ọkàn mi lára, nítorí pé èmi ni ìránṣẹ́ rẹ.
