Psalms 37
1 [By David.] Do not fret because of evildoers, neither be envious against those who work unrighteousness.
Ti Dafidi. Má ṣe ìkanra nítorí àwọn olùṣe búburú, kí ìwọ má sì ṣe ṣe ìlara nítorí àwọn oníṣẹ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀;
2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither like the green herb.
nítorí pé wọn yóò gbẹ bí i koríko, wọn yóò sì rẹ̀ dànù bí ewéko tútù.
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good. Dwell in the land, and enjoy safe pasture.
Gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa, kí o sì máa ṣe rere; torí pé ìwọ yóò gbé ilẹ̀ náà, kí o sì gbádùn ààbò rẹ̀.
4 Also delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
Ṣe inú dídùn sí Olúwa; òun yóò sì fún ọ ní ìfẹ́ inú rẹ̀.
5 Commit your way to the LORD. Trust also in him, and he will act.
Fi ọ̀nà rẹ lé Olúwa lọ́wọ́; gbẹ́kẹ̀lé pẹ̀lú, òun yóò sì ṣe é.
6 And he will make your righteousness go forth as the light, and your justice as the noonday.
Yóò sì mú kí òdodo rẹ̀ jáde bí ìmọ́lẹ̀ òwúrọ̀, àti ìdájọ́ rẹ̀ bí ọ̀sán gangan.
7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him. Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who makes wicked plots happen.
Ìwọ dákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́ níwájú Olúwa, kí o sì fi sùúrù dúró dè é; má ṣe ṣe ìkanra nítorí àwọn tí ń rí rere ní ọ̀nà wọn, nítorí ọkùnrin náà ti mú èrò búburú ṣẹ.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath. Do not fret, it leads only to evildoing.
Fàsẹ́yìn nínú inúbíbí, kí o sì kọ ìkáàánú sílẹ̀, má ṣe ṣe ìkanra, kí ó má ba à ṣé búburú pẹ̀lú.
9 For evildoers shall be cut off, but those who wait for the LORD shall inherit the land.
Nítorí tí á ó gé àwọn olùṣe búburú kúrò, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn tí ó bá dúró de Olúwa àwọn ni yóò jogún ilẹ̀ náà.
10 For yet a little while, and the wicked will be no more. Yes, though you look for his place, he isn't there.
Síbẹ̀ nígbà díẹ̀ sí i, àwọn ènìyàn búburú kì yóò sí mọ̀; nítòótọ́ ìwọ yóò fi ara balẹ̀ wo ipò rẹ̀, wọn kì yóò sí níbẹ̀.
11 But the humble shall inherit the land, and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọlọ́kàn tútù ni yóò jogún ilẹ̀ náà, wọn yóò sì máa ṣe inú dídùn nínú ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àlàáfíà.
12 The wicked plots against the just, and gnashes at him with his teeth.
Ènìyàn búburú di rìkíṣí sí olóòtítọ́, wọ́n sì pa eyín wọn keke sí wọn;
13 The LORD will laugh at him, for he sees that his day is coming.
ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa rẹ́rìn-ín sí àwọn ènìyàn búburú, nítorí tí ó rí wí pé ọjọ́ wọn ń bọ̀.
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, to kill those who are upright in the way.
Ènìyàn búburú fa idà yọ, wọ́n sì tẹ àwọn ọrun wọn, láti sọ tálákà àti aláìní kalẹ̀, láti pa àwọn tí ó dúró ṣinṣin.
15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart. Their bows shall be broken.
Idà wọn yóò wọ àyà wọn lọ, àti wí pé ọrun wọn yóò sì ṣẹ́.
16 Better is a little that the righteous has, than the abundance of many wicked.
Ohun díẹ̀ tí olódodo ní, sàn ju ọ̀pọ̀ ọrọ̀ ènìyàn búburú;
17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but the LORD upholds the righteous.
nítorí pé a óò ṣẹ́ ọwọ́ àwọn ènìyàn búburú, ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa gbé olódodo sókè.
18 The LORD knows the days of the perfect. Their inheritance shall be forever.
Olúwa mọ àwọn ọjọ́ àwọn tó dúró ṣinṣin, àti wí pé ilẹ̀ ìní wọn yóò wà títí ayérayé.
19 They shall not be disappointed in the time of evil. In the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
Ojú kì yóò tì wọ́n ní àkókò ibi, àti ní ọjọ́ ìyàn, a ó tẹ́ wọn lọ́rùn.
20 But the wicked shall perish. The enemies of the LORD shall be like the burning of an oven. They will vanish—vanish like smoke.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ènìyàn búburú yóò ṣègbé. Àwọn ọ̀tá Olúwa yóò dàbí ẹwà oko tútù; wọn fò lọ; bi èéfín ni wọn yóò fò lọ kúrò.
21 The wicked borrow, and do not pay back, but the righteous give generously.
Àwọn ènìyàn búburú yá, wọn kò sì san án padà, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn olódodo a máa ṣàánú, a sì máa fi fún ni;
22 For such as are blessed by him shall inherit the land. Those who are cursed by him shall be cut off.
nítorí àwọn tí Olúwa bá bùkún ni yóò jogún ilẹ̀ náà, àwọn tí ó fi bú ni a ó gé kúrò.
23 The steps of a man are established by the LORD, and he delights in his way.
Ìlànà ìgbésẹ̀ ènìyàn rere wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa wá, o sì ṣe inú dídùn sí ọ̀nà rẹ̀;
24 Though he stumble, he shall not fall, for the LORD holds him up with his hand.
bí ó tilẹ̀ ṣubú a kì yóò ta á nù pátápátá, nítorí tí Olúwa di ọwọ́ rẹ̀ mú.
25 I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his children begging for bread.
Èmi ti wà ni èwe, báyìí èmi sì dàgbà; síbẹ̀ èmi kò ì tí ì ri kí a kọ olódodo sílẹ̀, tàbí kí irú-ọmọ rẹ̀ máa ṣagbe oúnjẹ.
26 All day long he deals graciously and lends, and his offspring are a blessing.
Aláàánú ni òun nígbà gbogbo a máa yá ni; a sì máa bùsi i fún ni.
27 Turn away from evil, and do good. Live securely forever.
Lọ kúrò nínú ibi, kí o sì máa ṣe rere; nígbà náà ni ìwọ yóò gbé ní ilẹ̀ náà títí láéláé.
28 For the LORD loves justice, and doesn't forsake his faithful ones. They are preserved forever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.
Nítorí pé Olúwa fẹ́ràn ìdájọ́ òtítọ́, kò sì kọ àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́ rẹ̀ sílẹ̀. Àwọn olódodo ni a ó pamọ́ títí ayérayé, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọmọ ènìyàn búburú ni a ó ké kúrò.
29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and live in it forever.
Olódodo ni yóò jogún ilẹ̀ náà, yóò sì máa gbé ibẹ̀ títí ayérayé.
30 The mouth of the righteous talks of wisdom. His tongue speaks justice.
Ẹnu olódodo sọ̀rọ̀ ọgbọ́n, ahọ́n rẹ̀ a sì máa sọ̀rọ̀ ìdájọ́.
31 The law of his God is in his heart. None of his steps shall slide.
Òfin Ọlọ́run rẹ̀ ń bẹ ní àyà wọn; àwọn ìgbésẹ̀ rẹ̀ kì yóò yẹ̀.
32 The wicked watches the righteous, and seeks to kill him.
Ènìyàn búburú ń ṣọ́ olódodo, Ó sì ń wá ọ̀nà láti pa á.
33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
Olúwa kì yóò fi lé e lọ́wọ́ kì yóò sì dá a lẹ́bi, nígbà tí a bá ń ṣe ìdájọ́ rẹ̀.
34 Wait for the LORD, and keep his way, and he will exalt you to inherit the land. When the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.
Dúró de Olúwa, kí o sì máa pa ọ̀nà rẹ̀ mọ́. Yóò sì gbé ọ lékè láti jogún ilẹ̀ náà; nígbà tí a bá gé àwọn ènìyàn búburú kúrò ìwọ yóò ri.
35 I have seen the wicked wielding great power, and towering like a cedar of Lebanon.
Èmi ti rí ènìyàn búburú tí ń hu ìwà ìkà, ó sì fi ara rẹ̀ gbilẹ̀ bí igi tútù ńlá,
36 And I passed by, and look, he was not. And I looked for him, but he could not be found.
ṣùgbọ́n ní ìṣẹ́jú kan sí i ó kọjá lọ, sì kíyèsi, kò sì sí mọ́; bi ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ wí pé mo wá a kiri, ṣùgbọ́n a kò le è ri.
37 Observe the blameless, and see the upright, for there is a future for the man of peace.
Máa kíyèsi ẹni pípé, kí o sì wo ẹni tó dúró ṣinṣin; nítorí àlàáfíà ni òpin ọkùnrin náà.
38 As for transgressors, they shall be destroyed together. The future of the wicked shall be cut off.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn olùrékọjá ni a ó parun papọ̀; ìran àwọn ènìyàn búburú ni a ó gé kúrò.
39 The salvation of the righteous is from the LORD. He is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
Ìgbàlà àwọn onídùúró ṣinṣin wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa; òun ni ààbò wọn ní ìgbà ìpọ́njú
40 And the LORD helps them, and rescues them. He rescues them from the wicked, and saves them, Because they have taken refuge in him.
Olúwa yóò ràn wọ́n lọ́wọ́ yóò sì gbà wọ́n; yóò gbà wọ́n lọ́wọ́ ènìyàn búburú, yóò sì gbà wọ́n là, nítorí tí wọ́n gbẹ́kẹ̀lé e.
