Psalms 7
1 Shiggaion of David, which he sang to the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjamite. O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:
Ṣiggaioni ti Dafidi, èyí tí ó kọ sí Olúwa nípa Kuṣi, ará Benjamini. Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi, ààbò mi wà nínú rẹ; gba mí là kí o sì tú mi sílẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ àwọn tó ń lé mi,
2 Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
kí wọn ó má ba à fa ọkàn mi ya gẹ́gẹ́ bí kìnnìún, wọ́n á ya á pẹ́rẹpẹ̀rẹ láìsí ẹni tí yóò gbà mí.
3 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there is iniquity in my hands;
Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi, tí èmi bá ṣe èyí tí ẹ̀bi sì wà ní ọwọ́ mi.
4 If I have rewarded evil to him that was at peace with me; (yea, I have delivered him that without cause is my enemy: )
bí èmi bá ṣe ibi sí ẹni tí ń wá àlàáfíà pẹ̀lú mi, tí mo ja ọ̀tá mi lólè láìnídìí,
5 Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay my honour in the dust. (Selah)
nígbà náà, jẹ́ kí ọ̀tá mi lé mi kí wọn sì mú mi; jẹ́ kí òun kí ó tẹ ọkàn mi mọ́lẹ̀ kí wọn sì mú mi sùn nínú eruku. (Sela)
6 Arise, O LORD, in thy anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of my enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that thou hast commanded.
Dìde, Olúwa, nínú ìbínú rẹ; dìde lòdì sí ìrunú àwọn ọ̀tá mi. Jí, Ọlọ́run mi; kéde òdodo.
7 So shall the congregation of the people surround thee: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.
Kí ìpéjọ àwọn ènìyàn yíká. Jọba lórí wọn láti òkè wá.
8 The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to my integrity that is in me.
Jẹ́ kí Olúwa ṣe ìdájọ́ àwọn ènìyàn. Ṣe ìdájọ́ mi, Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí òdodo mi, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwà òtítọ́, ẹni gíga jùlọ.
9 O let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
Ọlọ́run Olódodo, Ẹni tí ó ń wo inú àti ọkàn, tí ó ń mú òpin sí ìwà ipá ẹni búburú tí ó sì ń pa àwọn olódodo mọ́.
10 My defence is from God, who saveth the upright in heart.
Ààbò mi ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run, ẹni tí ń ṣe ìgbàlà òtítọ́ ní àyà.
11 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
Ọlọ́run ni onídàájọ́ òtítọ́, Ọlọ́run tí ń sọ ìrunú rẹ̀ ní gbogbo ọjọ́.
12 If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.
Bí kò bá yípadà, Òun yóò pọ́n idà rẹ̀ mú; ó ti fa ọrun rẹ̀ le ná, ó ti múra rẹ̀ sílẹ̀.
13 He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.
Ó ti pèsè ohun ìjà ikú sílẹ̀; ó ti pèsè ọfà iná sílẹ̀.
14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
Ẹni tí ó lóyún ohun búburú, tí ó sì lóyún wàhálà, ó bí èké jáde.
15 He made a pit, and dug it, and hath fallen into the ditch which he made.
Ẹni tí ó gbẹ́ ọ̀fìn, tí ó kó o jáde jì sí kòtò tí ó gbẹ́ sílẹ̀.
16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon the crown of his head.
Wàhálà tí ó fà padà sórí rẹ̀; ìwà ipá rẹ̀ padà sórí ara rẹ̀.
17 I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.
Èmi ó fi ọpẹ́ fún Olúwa nítorí òdodo rẹ̀, èmi ó kọrin ìyìn sí Olúwa Ọ̀gá-ògo jùlọ.
