Psalms 63
1 God, you are the God whom I [worship]. I greatly desire to be with you like [SIL] a person in a dry hot desert greatly desires [some cool water].
Saamu ti Dafidi. Nígbà tí ó wà nínú aginjù Juda. Ọlọ́run, ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run mi, nígbà gbogbo ni mo ń ṣàfẹ́rí rẹ, òǹgbẹ rẹ ń gbẹ ọkàn mi, ara mi fà sí ọ, ní ilẹ̀ gbígbẹ àti ilẹ̀ tí ń ṣàárẹ̀ níbi tí kò sí omi.
2 So, I want to see you in your temple; I want to see that you are great and glorious.
Èmi ti rí ọ ní ibi mímọ́, mo rí agbára àti ògo rẹ.
3 Your constantly loving [me] is (worth more/more precious) than [my] life, so I [MTY] will [always] praise you.
Nítorí ìfẹ́ rẹ dára ju ayé lọ, ètè mi yóò fògo fún ọ.
4 I will praise you all the time that I live; I will lift up my hands to you while I pray.
Èmi ó yìn ọ́ níwọ̀n ìgbà tí mo wà láààyè, èmi ó gbé ọwọ́ sókè, èmi ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ.
5 [Knowing you satisfies me more than] [IDM, MET] my eating a very big feast, [so] I will praise you while I sing [MTY] joyful songs.
A ó tẹ́ ọkàn mi lọ́rùn bí ọlọ́ràá oúnjẹ; pẹ̀lú ètè ìyìn, ẹnu mi yóò yìn ọ́.
6 While I lie on my bed, I think about you. I think/meditate about you all during the night,
Nígbà tí mo rántí rẹ lórí ibùsùn mi; èmi ń ronú rẹ títí ìṣọ́ òru.
7 because you have always helped me, and I sing joyfully knowing that I am protected by you [as a little bird is protected] under [its mother’s] wings [MET].
Nítorí ìwọ ni ìrànlọ́wọ́ mi, mo kọrin níbi òjìji ìyẹ́ apá rẹ.
8 I cling to you; and with your hand/power you protect me.
Ọkàn mí fà sí ọ: ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ gbé mi ró.
9 But those who are trying to kill me will [die and] descend into the place of the dead;
Àwọn tí ó ń wá ọkàn mí ni a ó parun; wọn ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí ìsàlẹ̀ ilẹ̀ ayé.
10 they will be killed in battles [MTY] and their [corpses] will be eaten by jackals/wild dogs.
Wọn ó ti ọwọ́ idà ṣubú wọn ó sì di jíjẹ fún kọ̀lọ̀kọ̀lọ̀.
11 But I, the king [of Israel], will rejoice in what God has done; and all those who revere and trust God will praise him, but he will not allow liars to say anything.
Ṣùgbọ́n ọba yóò yọ̀ nínú Ọlọ́run ẹni tí ó fi orúkọ Ọlọ́run búra yóò ṣògo ṣùgbọ́n ẹnu àwọn òpùrọ́ la ó pamọ́.
