Psalms 94
1 O GOD of avenging—Yahweh, GOD of avenging, shine forth:
Olúwa Ọlọ́run ẹni tí ń gbẹ̀san, Ọlọ́run ẹni tí ń gbẹ̀san.
2 Lift up thyself, O judge of the earth, Render a recompense unto the proud.
Gbé ara rẹ sókè, ìwọ onídàájọ́ ayé; san ẹ̀san fún agbéraga ohun tí ó yẹ wọ́n.
3 How long shall the lawless, O Yahweh, How long shall the lawless exult?
Báwo ní yóò ti pẹ́ tó, Olúwa tí àwọn ẹni búburú yóò kọ orin ayọ̀?
4 They pour forth [words], they speak arrogantly, All the workers of iniquity, do boast:
Wọ́n ń sọ̀rọ̀ ìgbéraga jáde; gbogbo àwọn olùṣe búburú kún fún ìṣògo.
5 Thy people, O Yahweh, they will crush, And, thine inheritance, tread down;
Wọ́n fọ́ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ túútúú, Olúwa: wọ́n pọ́n ilẹ̀ ìní rẹ̀ lójú.
6 The widow and sojourner, they will slay, And, the fatherless, murder.
Wọ́n pa àwọn opó àti àlejò, wọ́n sì pa àwọn ọmọ aláìní baba.
7 Yet have they said—Yah, doth not see, The God of Jacob, doth not understand.
Wọ́n sọ pé, “Olúwa kò rí i; Ọlọ́run Jakọbu kò sì kíyèsi i.”
8 Understand, ye brutish among the people, And, ye dullards, when will ye show discretion?
Kíyèsi i, ẹ̀yin aláìlóye nínú àwọn ènìyàn; ẹ̀yin aṣiwèrè, nígbà wo ni ẹ̀yin yóò lóye?
9 He that planteth the ear, shall he not hear? Or, that fashioneth the eye, shall he not have power to see?
Ẹni tí ó gbin etí, ó lè ṣe aláìgbọ́ bí? Ẹni tí ó dá ojú? Ó ha lè ṣe aláìríran bí?
10 He that correcteth nations, shall he not reprove? He that teacheth man knowledge!
Ẹni tí ń bá orílẹ̀-èdè wí, ṣé kò lè tọ́ ni ṣọ́nà bí? Ẹni tí ń kọ́ ènìyàn ha lè ṣàìní ìmọ̀ bí?
11 Yahweh, knoweth the plans of men, That, they, are a breath!
Olúwa mọ èrò inú ènìyàn; ó mọ̀ pé asán ni wọ́n.
12 How happy the man whom thou correctest, O Yah! And whom, out of thy law, thou instructest!
Ìbùkún ni fún ènìyàn náà tí ìwọ bá wí, Olúwa, ẹni tí ìwọ kọ́ nínú òfin rẹ,
13 That thou mayest give him rest from the days of misfortune, Until there be digged—for the lawless one—a pit.
Ìwọ gbà á kúrò nínú ọjọ́ ibi, títí a ó fi wa ihò sílẹ̀ fún ẹni búburú.
14 For Yahweh, will not abandon, his people, And, his inheritance, will he not forsake;
Nítorí Olúwa kò ní kọ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, Òun kò sì ní kọ ilẹ̀ ìní rẹ̀ sílẹ̀.
15 For, unto righteousness, shall the judicial sentence return, Then shall follow it—all the upright in heart.
Ìdájọ́ yóò padà sí òdodo, àti gbogbo àwọn ọlọ́kàn dídúró ṣinṣin yóò tẹ̀lé e lẹ́yìn.
16 Who will rise up for me, against the evil-doers? Who will make a stand for me, against the workers of iniquity?
Ta ni yóò dìde fún mi sí àwọn olùṣe búburú? Tàbí ta ni yóò dìde sí àwọn oníṣẹ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ fún mi?
17 If, Yahweh, had not been a help to me, Soon had sunk into silence—my soul!
Bí kò ṣe pé Olúwa fún mi ní ìrànlọ́wọ́, èmi fẹ́rẹ̀ máa gbé ní ilẹ̀ tí ó dákẹ́.
18 If I say, My foot, hath slipped, Thy lovingkindness, O Yahweh, supporteth me.
Nígbà tí mo sọ pé, “Ẹsẹ̀ mi ń yọ̀”, Olúwa, ìfẹ́ rẹ̀ ni ó tì mí lẹ́yìn.
19 In the multitude of my cares within me, Thy consolations, delight my soul.
Nígbà tí àníyàn ńlá wà nínú mi, ìtùnú rẹ̀ mú ayọ̀ sí ọkàn mi.
20 Shall the throne that inflicteth ruin, have fellowship with thee, That frameth oppression, by statute?
Ìjọba ìbàjẹ́ ha lè kẹ́gbẹ́ pẹ̀lú rẹ ẹni tí ń fi òfin dì mọ́ ìwà ìkà?
21 They make an attack on the life of the righteous one, —And, innocent blood, they condemn.
Wọ́n kó ara wọn jọ sí olódodo wọ́n sì ń dá àwọn aláìṣẹ̀ lẹ́bi sí ikú.
22 But, Yahweh, hath become for me a high tower, And my God, my rock of refuge.
Ṣùgbọ́n, Olúwa ti di odi alágbára mi, àti Ọlọ́run mi ni àpáta nínú ẹni tí mo ti ń gba ààbò.
23 Thus hath he brought back on them their iniquity, And, by their own wickedness, will he destroy them, Destroy them, will Yahweh our God.
Òun yóò san ẹ̀san ibi wọn fún wọn yóò sì pa wọ́n run nítorí búburú wọn Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa yóò pa wọ́n run.
