Psalms 139
1 Yahweh, you have examined me, and you know [everything about] me.
Fún adarí orin. Ti Dafidi. Saamu. Olúwa, ìwọ tí wádìí mi, ìwọ sì ti mọ̀ mí.
2 You know when I sit down and when I stand up. [Even though you are] far away from me, you know what I am thinking.
Ìwọ mọ̀ ìjókòó mi àti ìdìde mi, ìwọ mọ̀ èrò mi ní ọ̀nà jíjìn réré.
3 When I travel and when I lie down, you know everything that I do.
Ìwọ yí ipa ọ̀nà mi ká àti ìdùbúlẹ̀ mi, gbogbo ọ̀nà mi sì di mí mọ̀ fún ọ.
4 Yahweh, even before I say [MTY] anything, you know everything that I am going to say!
Nítorí tí kò sí ọ̀rọ̀ kan ní ahọ́n mi, kíyèsi i, Olúwa, ìwọ mọ̀ ọ́n pátápátá.
5 You protect me on all sides; you put your hand on me [to protect me with your power] [MTY].
Ìwọ sé mi mọ́ lẹ́yìn àti níwájú, ìwọ sì fi ọwọ́ rẹ lé mi.
6 I am not able to understand that you know [everything about me]. That is too great for me to really understand.
Irú ìmọ̀ yìí jẹ ohun ìyanu fún mi jù; ó ga, èmi kò le mọ̀ ọ́n.
7 (Where could I go to escape from your Spirit?/I could not go anywhere to escape from your Spirit.) [RHQ] (Where could I go to get away from you?/I could not go anywhere to get away from you.) [RHQ]
Níbo ní èmi yóò gbé lọ kúrò ni ọwọ́ ẹ̀mí rẹ? Tàbí níbo ni èmi yóò sáré kúrò níwájú rẹ?
8 If I went up to heaven, you would be there. If I lay down in the place where the dead people are, you would be there. (Sheol h7585)
Bí èmi bá gòkè lọ sí ọ̀run, ìwọ wà níbẹ̀; bí èmí ba sì tẹ́ ẹní mi ní ipò òkú, kíyèsi i, ìwọ wà níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú. (Sheol h7585)
9 If I had wings and flew very far east [MTY], or if I flew west and made a place to live [on an island] in the ocean,
Èmi ìbá mú ìyẹ́ apá òwúrọ̀, kí èmi sì lọ jókòó ní ìhà òpin Òkun,
10 you would be there also, to lead me by your hand, and you would help me.
àní, níbẹ̀ náà ni ọwọ́ rẹ̀ yóò fà mí ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ yóò sì dì mímú.
11 I could request the darkness to hide me, or I could request the light around me to become darkness,
Bí mo bá wí pé, “Ǹjẹ́ kí òkùnkùn kí ó bò mí mọ́lẹ̀; kí ìmọ́lẹ̀ kí ó di òru yí mi ká.”
12 but even [if that happened], the darkness would not be darkness for you! For you, the night is [as bright] as the daytime is, because for you, daylight and darkness are (not different/the same).
Nítòótọ́ òkùnkùn kì í ṣú lọ́dọ̀ rẹ; ṣùgbọ́n òru tan ìmọ́lẹ̀ bí ọ̀sán; àti òkùnkùn àti ọ̀sán, méjèèjì bákan náà ní fún ọ.
13 You created [all] the parts of my body; you put [the parts of] my body together when I was still in my mother’s womb.
Nítorí ìwọ ni ó dá ọkàn mi; ìwọ ni ó bò mí mọ́lẹ̀ nínú ìyá mi.
14 I praise you because you made my [body in a very] awesome and wonderful way. Everything that you do is amazing! I know that very well.
Èmi yóò yìn ọ, nítorí tẹ̀rù tẹ̀rù àti tìyanu tìyanu ní a dá mi; ìyanu ní iṣẹ́ rẹ; èyí nì ni ọkàn mi sì mọ̀ dájúdájú.
15 When my body was being formed, while it was being put together where no one else could see it, you saw it!
Ẹ̀dá ara mi kò pamọ́ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ, nígbà tí a dá mi ní ìkọ̀kọ̀. Tí a sì ń ṣiṣẹ́ ní àràbarà ní ìhà ìsàlẹ̀ ilẹ̀ ayé,
16 You saw me before I was born. You wrote in your book the number of days that you had decided that I would live. You did that before any of those days had [even] started!
ojú rẹ ti rí ohun ara mi nígbà tí a kò tí ì ṣe mí pé, àti nínú ìwé rẹ ni a ti kọ ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan wọn sí, ní ọjọ́ tí a dá wọn, nígbà tí wọn kò tilẹ̀ tí ì sí.
17 God, what you think about me is very precious (OR, is very hard to understand). There is a great number of things that you think about.
Ọlọ́run, èrò inú rẹ tí ṣe iyebíye tó fún mi, iye wọn ti pọ̀ tó!
18 If I could count them, [I would see that] they are more than the grains of sand [at the seashore]. And when I wake up, I am still with you [and I know that there are still more of your thoughts about me to count].
Èmi ìbá kà wọ́n, wọ́n ju iyanrìn lọ ní iye: nígbà tí mo bá jí, èmi yóò wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ síbẹ̀.
19 God, I desire that you would kill all the wicked people! And I wish that violent [MTY] men would (leave/go away from) me.
Ọlọ́run ìbá jẹ́ pa àwọn ènìyàn búburú nítòótọ́; nítorí náà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi ẹ̀yin ọkùnrin ẹlẹ́jẹ̀.
20 They say wicked/malicious things about you; they slander your name.
Ẹni tí ń fi inú búburú sọ̀rọ̀ sí ọ, àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ ń pe orúkọ rẹ ní asán!
21 Yahweh, I certainly [RHQ] hate those who hate you! And I despise [RHQ] those who rebel against you.
Olúwa, ǹjẹ́ èmi kò kórìíra àwọn tó kórìíra rẹ? Ǹjẹ́ inú mi kò a sì bàjẹ́ sí àwọn tí ó dìde sí ọ?
22 I hate them completely, and I consider that they are my enemies.
Èmi kórìíra wọn ní àkótán; èmi kà wọ́n sí ọ̀tá mi.
23 God, search my inner being; find out what I am thinking!
Ọlọ́run, wádìí mi, kí o sì mọ ọkàn mí; dán mi wò, kí o sì mọ ìrò inú mi.
24 Find out whether there is anything evil in my [inner being], and lead me along the road [that leads to my being with you] forever.
Kí ó sì wò ó bí ipa ọ̀nà búburú kan bá wà nínú mi kí ó sì fi ẹsẹ̀ mi lé ọ̀nà àìnípẹ̀kun.
