Psalms 44
1 To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, Maschil. We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, [what] work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.
Fún adarí orin. Ti àwọn ọmọ Kora. Maskili. À ti fi etí wa gbọ́, Ọlọ́run; àwọn baba wa tí sọ fún wa ohun tí ìwọ ṣe ní ọjọ́ wọn, ní ọjọ́ pípẹ́ sẹ́yìn.
2 [How] thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and didst plant them; [how] thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.
Ìwọ fi ọwọ́ rẹ lé orílẹ̀-èdè jáde, Ìwọ sì gbin àwọn baba wa; ìwọ run àwọn ènìyàn náà Ìwọ sì mú àwọn baba wa gbilẹ̀.
3 For they obtained not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thy arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favor to them.
Kì í ṣe nípa idà wọn ni wọ́n gba ilẹ̀ náà, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kì í ṣe apá wọn ní ó gbà wọ́n bí kò ṣe; ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ̀ àti, apá rẹ; àti ìmọ́lẹ̀ ojú rẹ̀, nítorí ìwọ fẹ́ wọn.
4 Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.
Ìwọ ni ọba àti Ọlọ́run mi, ẹni tí ó pàṣẹ ìṣẹ́gun fún Jakọbu.
5 Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name we will tread them under that rise up against us.
Nípasẹ̀ rẹ ni àwa ó bi àwọn ọ̀tá wa ṣubú; nípasẹ̀ orúkọ rẹ ni àwa ó tẹ àwọn ọ̀tá tí ó dìde sí wa mọ́lẹ̀,
6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
èmi kì yóò gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ọrun mi, idà mi kì yóò mú ìṣẹ́gun lórí àwọn ọ̀tá wá,
7 But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.
ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ fún wa ní ìṣẹ́gun lórí àwọn ọ̀tá wa, ìwọ sì ti dójúti àwọn tí ó kórìíra wa.
8 In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. (Selah)
Nínú Ọlọ́run àwa ń ṣògo ní gbogbo ọjọ́, àwa ó sì yin orúkọ rẹ títí láé. (Sela)
9 But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.
Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí, ìwọ ti kọ̀ wá, ìwọ sì ti dójútì wá, Ìwọ kò sì bá àwọn ọmọ-ogun wa jáde mọ́.
10 Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they who hate us plunder for themselves.
Ìwọ ti bá wa jà, ìwọ sì ti ṣẹ́gun wa níwájú àwọn ọ̀tá wa, àwọn ọ̀tá wa ti gba ilẹ̀ wa, wọ́n sì fi ipá gba oko wa.
11 Thou hast given us like sheep [appointed] for food; and hast scattered us among the heathen.
Ìwọ fi wá fún jíjẹ bí ẹran àgùntàn, Ìwọ sì ti tú wa ká sí àárín àwọn kèfèrí.
12 Thou sellest thy people for naught, and dost not increase [thy wealth] by their price.
Ìwọ ta àwọn ènìyàn rẹ fún owó kékeré, Ìwọ kò sì jẹ èrè kankan lórí iye tí ìwọ tà wọ́n.
13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbors, a scorn and a derision to them that are around us.
Ìwọ sọ wá di ẹni ẹ̀sín ní ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn aládùúgbò wa, ẹlẹ́yà àti ẹni àbùkù sí àwọn tí ó yí wa ká.
14 Thou makest us a by-word among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.
Ìwọ ti sọ wá di ẹni ìfisọ̀rọ̀ láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè; àwọn ènìyàn ń mi orí wọn sí wa.
15 My confusion [is] continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
Ìdójútì mi ń bẹ pẹ̀lú mi ní gbogbo ọjọ́, ìtìjú sì bojú mi mọ́lẹ̀,
16 For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.
nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ ẹ̀gàn àti ọ̀rọ̀ ẹ̀tàn ní ojú àwọn ọ̀tá àti olùgbẹ̀san.
17 All this is come upon us; yet we have not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
Gbogbo àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí ń ṣẹlẹ̀ sí wa, síbẹ̀ àwa kò gbàgbé rẹ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a kò ṣèké sí májẹ̀mú rẹ̀.
18 Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;
Ọkàn wa kò padà sẹ́yìn; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹsẹ̀ wa kò yẹ̀ kúrò ní ọ̀nà rẹ̀.
19 Though thou hast severely broke us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shades of death.
Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n kọlù wá, ìwọ sì sọ wá di ẹran ọdẹ fún àwọn ẹranko búburú, tí wọn sì fi òkùnkùn biribiri bò wá mọ́lẹ̀.
20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;
Bí àwa bá ti gbàgbé orúkọ Ọlọ́run wa tàbí tí a na ọwọ́ wa sí ọlọ́run àjèjì.
21 Will not God search out this? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
Ǹjẹ́ Ọlọ́run kì yóò rí ìdí rẹ̀, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí ó mọ ohun ìkọ̀kọ̀ inú ọkàn?
22 Yes, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
Síbẹ̀, nítorí rẹ̀ àwa da àyà kọ ikú, ní ojoojúmọ́ a ń kà wá sí bí àgùntàn fún pípa.
23 Awake, why sleepest thou, O LORD? arise, cast [us] not off for ever.
Jí, Olúwa! Èéṣe tí ìwọ ń sùn? Dìde fúnra rẹ̀! Má ṣe kọ̀ wá sílẹ̀ láéláé.
24 Why hidest thou thy face, [and] forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
Èéṣe tí ìwọ ń pa ojú rẹ mọ́ tí ìwọ sì gbàgbé ìpọ́njú àti ìnira wa?
25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth to the earth.
Nítorí a tẹrí ọkàn wa ba sínú eruku; ara wa sì dì mọ́ erùpẹ̀ ilẹ̀.
26 Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.
Dìde kí o sì ràn wá lọ́wọ́; rà wá padà nítorí ìfẹ́ rẹ tí ó dúró ṣinṣin.
