< Psalms 90 >
1 A Prayer by Moses, the Man of God. Lord! a dwelling-place, hast, thou, become to us, From generation to generation:
Àdúrà Mose ènìyàn Ọlọ́run. Olúwa, ìwọ ti jẹ́ ibùgbé wa ní gbogbo ìran dé ìran.
2 Before, the mountains, were born, Or thou hadst brought forth the earth and the world, Even, from age to age, thou, [wast] GOD.
Kí a tó bí àwọn òkè ńlá àti kí ìwọ tó dá ilẹ̀ àti ayé, láti ayérayé dé ayérayé ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run.
3 Thou causest man to return unto dust, And hast said—Return, ye sons of Adam!
Ìwọ yí ènìyàn padà sí erùpẹ̀, wí pé, “Padà sí erùpẹ̀, ìwọ ọmọ ènìyàn.”
4 For, a thousand years, in thine eyes, [are], As yesterday, in that it passed away, Or [as] a watch in the night.
Nítorí pé ìgbà tí ẹgbẹ̀rún ọdún bá kọjá lójú rẹ, bí àná ni ó rí, bí ìgbà ìṣọ́ kan lóru.
5 Thou hast snatched them away, A sleep, do they become, In the morning, [they are] like grass that shooteth up,
Ìwọ gbá ènìyàn dànù nínú oorun ikú; wọ́n dàbí koríko tuntun ní òwúrọ̀.
6 In the morning, it sprouteth and shooteth up, By the evening, it is cut down and withered.
Lóòtítọ́, ní òwúrọ̀, ó yọ tuntun ní àṣálẹ́ ni yóò gbẹ, tí yóò sì rẹ̀ dànù.
7 For we are consumed in thine anger, And, in thy wrath, are we dismayed;
A pa wá run nípa ìbínú rẹ nípa ìbínú rẹ ara kò rọ̀ wá.
8 Thou hast set, Our iniquities before thee, Our secret near the luminary of thy face.
Ìwọ ti gbé ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wa ka iwájú rẹ, àti ohun ìkọ̀kọ̀ wa nínú ìmọ́lẹ̀ iwájú rẹ.
9 For, all our days, decline in thy wrath, —We end our years like a sigh.
Gbogbo ọjọ́ wa ń kọjá lọ lábẹ́ ìbínú rẹ; àwa ń lo ọjọ́ wa lọ bí àlá tí à ń rọ́.
10 The days of our years, have, in them, three score years and ten, And, if, by reason of strength, they have fourscore years, Yet, their boast, is labour and sorrow, For it hath passed quickly, and we have flown away.
Àádọ́rin ọdún ni iye ọjọ́ ọdún wá, bi ó sì ṣe pé nípa agbára tí wọn bá tó ọgọ́rin ọdún, agbára nínú làálàá pẹ̀lú ìbànújẹ́ ni, nítorí pé a kò ní pẹ́ gé e kúrò, àwa a sì fò lọ.
11 Who knoweth the strength of thine anger? Even, according to the fear of thee, is thy wrath!
Ta ni ó mọ agbára ìbínú rẹ? Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ̀rù rẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìbínú rẹ.
12 How to number our days, so grant us to know, That we may win us a heart that hath wisdom.
Kọ́ wa bí a ti ń kaye ọjọ́ wa dáradára, kí àwa ba à lè fi ọkàn wa sípa ọgbọ́n.
13 Return, Yahweh, oh how long? And have compassion upon thy servants;
Yípadà, Olúwa! Yóò ti pẹ́ tó? Ṣàánú fún àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ.
14 Satisfy us, in the morning, with thy lovingkindness, That we may shout aloud and be glad, Throughout all our days.
Tẹ́ wa lọ́rùn ní òwúrọ̀ nínú ìṣeun ìfẹ́ rẹ, kí àwa kí ó lè kọrin fún ayọ̀ kí inú wa sì dùn ní gbogbo ọjọ́.
15 Make us glad, according to, The days thou hast humbled us, The years we have seen misfortune:
Mú inú wa dùn bí ọjọ́ tí ìwọ ti pọ́n wa lójú, fún ọjọ́ púpọ̀ tí àwa ti rí wàhálà.
16 Let thy work, appear unto thy servants, And, thy majesty, upon their children;
Jẹ́ kí a fi iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ han àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, ògo rẹ̀ sí àwọn ọmọ wọn.
17 And let the delightfulness of Adonay our God be upon us, —And, the work of our hands, establish thou upon us, Yea, the work of our hands, establish thou it.
Jẹ́ kí ẹwà Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa wà lára wa; fi ìdí iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ wa múlẹ̀ lára wa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, kí ó sì fi ìdí iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ wa múlẹ̀.
