Psalms 66
1 [Tell] everyone on the earth that they should sing joyfully to praise God!
Fún adarí orin. Orin. Saamu. Ẹ hó ìhó ayọ̀ sí Ọlọ́run, ẹ̀yin ilẹ̀ gbogbo!
2 They should sing songs that say that God [MTY] is very great, and they should tell everyone that he is very glorious!
Ẹ kọrin ọlá orúkọ rẹ̀; ẹ kọrin ìyìnsí i.
3 They should say to God, “The things that you do are awesome! You are very powerful, with the result that your enemies (cringe/bow down) in front of you.”
Ẹ wí fún Ọlọ́run pé, “Ìwọ ti ní ẹ̀rù tó nínú iṣẹ́ rẹ! Nípa ọ̀pọ̀ agbára rẹ ni àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ yóò fi sìn ọ́.
4 Everyone on the earth [should] worship God and sing to praise him and honor him [MTY].
Gbogbo ayé ń wólẹ̀ fún ọ; wọn ń kọrin ìyìn sí ọ, wọ́n ń kọrin ìyìn sí orúkọ rẹ.” (Sela)
5 Come and think about what God has done! Think about the awesome things that he has done.
Ẹ wá wo ohun tí Ọlọ́run ṣe, iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ti ní ẹ̀rù tó sí àwọn ọmọ ènìyàn!
6 He caused the [Red] Sea to become dry land, [with the result that our] ancestors were able to walk right through it. There we rejoiced because of what he [had done].
Ó yí òkun padà sí ilẹ̀ gbígbẹ, wọ́n fi ẹsẹ̀ rin inú omi kọjá, níbẹ̀ ni àwa yọ̀ nínú rẹ̀.
7 By his great power he rules forever, and he keeps watching all the nations [to see what things they do], [so] those nations that want to rebel [against him] should not be proud.
Ó ń jẹ ọba títí láé nípa agbára rẹ̀, ojú rẹ̀ ń wo orílẹ̀-èdè kí àwọn ọlọ̀tẹ̀ má ṣe gbé ara wọn ga. (Sela)
8 You people [of all nations], praise our God! Praise him loudly in order that people will hear you as you praise him.
Ẹ yin Ọlọ́run wa, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn, jẹ́ kí a mú ni gbọ́ ohùn ìyìn rẹ̀;
9 He has kept us alive, and he has not allowed us to (stumble/be defeated).
Ó ti dá ààbò bo ẹ̀mí wa, kò sì jẹ́ kí ẹsẹ̀ wa kí ó yẹ̀.
10 God, you have tested us; you have allowed us to experience great difficulties [to make our lives become pure] as [people] put precious metals in a hot fire [to burn out what is impure] [MET].
Nítorí ìwọ, Ọlọ́run, dán wa wò; ìwọ dán wa bí a tí ń dán fàdákà wò.
11 [It is as if] you allowed us to fall into traps [MET], and you [forced us to endure difficult things which were like] putting heavy loads on our backs [MET].
Ìwọ mú wa wá sínú ẹ̀wọ̀n o sì di ẹrù lé ẹ̀yìn wa.
12 You allowed [our] enemies to trample on us; we [experienced difficulties/troubles that were like] [MET] walking through fires and floods, but now you have brought us into a place where we have plenty.
Ìwọ mú àwọn ènìyàn gún wá ní orí àwa la iná àti omi kọjá ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ mú wa dé ibi ọ̀pọ̀.
13 [Yahweh], I will bring to your temple offerings that are to be completely burned [on the altar]; I will offer to you what I promised.
Èmi ó wá sí tẹmpili rẹ pẹ̀lú ọrẹ ẹbọ sísun, kí n sì mú ẹ̀jẹ́ mi ṣẹ sí ọ,
14 When I was experiencing [much] trouble, I said that I would bring offerings to you [if you rescued me]; [and you did rescue me, so] I will bring to you what I promised.
ẹ̀jẹ́ tí ètè mi jẹ́, tí ẹnu mi sì sọ nígbà tí mo wà nínú ìṣòro.
15 I will bring sheep to be burned on the altar, and I will [also] sacrifice bulls and goats, and when they are burning, [you will be pleased when] the smoke [rises up] ([to you/to the sky]).
Èmi ó rú ẹbọ sísun ọlọ́ràá sí ọ, àti ẹbọ ọ̀rá àgbò; èmi ó rú akọ màlúù àti ewúrẹ́. (Sela)
16 All you [people] who revere God, come and listen, and I will tell you what he has done for me.
Ẹ wá gbọ́ gbogbo ẹ̀yin tí ó bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run; ẹ jẹ́ kí n sọ ohun tí ó ṣe fún mi.
17 I called out to him to help me, and I praised him while I was speaking to him [MTY].
Mo fi ẹnu mi kígbe sókè sí i, ìyìn rẹ̀ wà ní ẹnu mi.
18 If I had ignored the sins that I had committed, the Lord would not have paid any attention to me.
Bí èmi bá gba ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ní àyà mi, Olúwa kì yóò gbọ́ ohùn mi;
19 But because [I confessed my sins], God has listened to me and he paid attention to my prayers.
ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run gbọ́ nítòótọ́ ó ti gbọ́ ohùn mi nínú àdúrà.
20 I praise God because he has not ignored my prayers or stopped faithfully loving me.
Ìyìn ni fún Ọlọ́run ẹni tí kò kọ àdúrà mi tàbí mú ìfẹ́ rẹ̀ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi!
