< 2 Samuel 22 >

1 And David speaketh to Jehovah the words of this song in the day Jehovah hath delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul,
Dafidi sì kọ ọ̀rọ̀ orin yìí sí Olúwa ní ọjọ́ tí Olúwa gbà á kúrò lọ́wọ́ gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀, àti kúrò lọ́wọ́ Saulu.
2 and he saith: 'Jehovah [is] my rock, And my bulwark, and a deliverer to me,
Ó sì wí pé, “Olúwa ni àpáta mi, àti Olùgbàlà mi;
3 My God [is] my rock — I take refuge in Him; My shield, and the horn of my salvation, My high tower, and my refuge! My Saviour, from violence Thou savest me!
Ọlọ́run mi, àpáta mi, nínú ẹni tí èmi ní ààbò, àti ìwo ìgbàlà mi, ibi ìsádi gíga mi. Àti ibi ìlùmọ̀ mi, Olùgbàlà mi; ìwọ ni ó ti gbà mí kúrò lọ́wọ́ ìwà ipá.
4 The Praised One, I call Jehovah: And from mine enemies I am saved.
“Èmi ké pe Olúwa, tí ó yẹ láti máa yìn, ó sì gbà mí lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá mi.
5 When the breakers of death compassed me, The streams of the worthless terrify me,
Nígbà tí ìbìlù ìrora ikú yí mi káàkiri; tí àwọn ìṣàn ènìyàn búburú dẹ́rùbà mí.
6 The cords of Sheol have surrounded me, Before me have been the snares of death. (Sheol h7585)
Ọ̀já isà òkú yí mi káàkiri; ìkẹ́kùn ikú dojúkọ mí. (Sheol h7585)
7 In mine adversity I call Jehovah, And unto my God I call, And He heareth from His temple my voice, And my cry [is] in His ears,
“Nínú ìpọ́njú mi, èmi ké pé Olúwa, èmi sì gbé ohùn mi sókè sí Ọlọ́run mi. Ó sí gbóhùn mi láti tẹmpili rẹ̀ igbe mí wọ etí rẹ̀.
8 And shake and tremble doth the earth, Foundations of the heavens are troubled, And are shaken, for He hath wrath!
Ilẹ̀ sì mì, ó sì wárìrì; ìpìlẹ̀ ọ̀run wárìrì, ó sì mì, nítorí tí ó bínú.
9 Gone up hath smoke by His nostrils. And fire from His mouth devoureth, Brands have been kindled by it.
Èéfín ti ihò imú rẹ̀ jáde wá, iná ajónirun ti ẹnu rẹ̀ jáde wá, ẹ̀yin iná bú jáde láti inú rẹ̀.
10 And He inclineth heaven, and cometh down, And thick darkness [is] under His feet.
Ó tẹ orí ọ̀run ba pẹ̀lú, ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀; òkùnkùn biribiri sì ń bẹ ní àtẹ́lẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀.
11 And He rideth on a cherub, and doth fly, And is seen on the wings of the wind.
Ó sì gun orí kérúbù, ó sì fò, a sì rí i lórí ìyẹ́ afẹ́fẹ́.
12 And He setteth darkness Round about Him — tabernacles, Darkness of waters — thick clouds of the skies.
Ó sì fi òkùnkùn ṣe ibùjókòó yí ara rẹ̀, àti àgbájọ omi, àní ìṣúdudu ìkùùkuu àwọ̀ sánmọ̀.
13 From the brightness before Him Were brands of fire kindled!
Nípasẹ̀ ìmọ́lẹ̀ iwájú rẹ̀ ẹ̀yín iná ràn.
14 Thunder from the heavens doth Jehovah, And the Most High giveth forth His voice.
Olúwa sán àrá láti ọ̀run wá, Ọ̀gá-ògo jùlọ sì fọhùn rẹ̀.
15 And He sendeth forth arrows, And scattereth them; Lightning, and troubleth them;
Ó sì ta ọfà, ó sì tú wọn ká; ó kọ mànàmànà, ó sì ṣẹ́ wọn.
16 And seen are the streams of the sea, Revealed are foundations of the world, By the rebuke of Jehovah, From the breath of the spirit of His anger.
Ìṣàn ibú òkun sì fi ara hàn, ìpìlẹ̀ ayé fi ara hàn, nípa ìbáwí Olúwa, nípa fífún èémí ihò imú rẹ̀.
17 He sendeth from above — He taketh me, He draweth me out of many waters.
“Ó ránṣẹ́ láti òkè wá, ó mú mi; ó fà mí jáde láti inú omi ńlá wá.
18 He delivereth me from my strong enemy, From those hating me, For they were stronger than I.
Ó gbà mí lọ́wọ́ ọ̀tá mi alágbára, lọ́wọ́ àwọn tí ó kórìíra mi, nítorí pé wọ́n lágbára jù mí lọ.
19 They are before me in a day of my calamity, And Jehovah is my support,
Wọ́n wá láti borí mi lọ́jọ́ ìpọ́njú mi, ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa ni aláfẹ̀yìntì mi.
20 And He bringeth me out to a large place, He draweth me out for He delighted in me.
Ó sì mú mi wá sí ààyè ńlá, ó gbà mi, nítorí tí inú rẹ̀ dún sí mi.
21 Jehovah recompenseth me, According to my righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands, He doth return to me.
“Olúwa sán án fún mi gẹ́gẹ́ bí òdodo mi; ó sì san án fún mi gẹ́gẹ́ bí mímọ́ ọwọ́ mi.
22 For I have kept the ways of Jehovah, And have not done wickedly against my God.
Nítorí pé èmi pa ọ̀nà Olúwa mọ́, èmi kò sì fi ìwà búburú yapa kúrò lọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run mi.
23 For all His judgments [are] before me, As to His statutes, I turn not from them.
Nítorí pé gbogbo ìdájọ́ rẹ̀ ni ó wà níwájú mi; àti ní ti òfin rẹ̀, èmi kò sì yapa kúrò nínú wọn.
24 And I am perfect before Him, And I keep myself from mine iniquity.
Èmi sì wà nínú ìwà títọ́ sí í, èmi sì pa ara mi mọ́ kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi.
25 And Jehovah returneth to me, According to my righteousness, According to my cleanness before His eyes.
Olúwa sì san fún mi gẹ́gẹ́ bí òdodo mi, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwà mímọ́ mi níwájú rẹ̀.
26 With the kind Thou shewest Thyself kind, With the perfect man Thou shewest Thyself perfect,
“Fún aláàánú ni ìwọ ó fi ara rẹ̀ hàn ni aláàánú, àti fún ẹni ìdúró ṣinṣin ní òdodo ni ìwọ ó fi ara rẹ hàn ní ìdúró ṣinṣin ní òdodo.
27 With the pure Thou shewest Thyself pure, And with the perverse Thou shewest Thyself a wrestler.
Fún onínú funfun ni ìwọ fi ara rẹ hàn ní funfun; àti fún ẹni wíwọ́ ni ìwọ ó fi ara rẹ hàn ní wíwọ́.
28 And the poor people Thou dost save, And Thine eyes on the high causest to fall.
Àwọn ènìyàn tí ó wà nínú ìyà ni ìwọ ó sì gbàlà; ṣùgbọ́n ojú rẹ wà lára àwọn agbéraga, láti rẹ̀ wọ́n sílẹ̀.
29 For Thou [art] my lamp, O Jehovah, And Jehovah doth lighten my darkness.
Nítorí ìwọ ni ìmọ́lẹ̀ mi, Olúwa; Olúwa yóò sì sọ òkùnkùn mi di ìmọ́lẹ̀.
30 For by Thee I run — a troop, By my God I leap a wall.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni nítorí nípa rẹ̀ ni èmi ti la àárín ogun kọjá; nípa Ọlọ́run mi èmi ti fo odi kan.
31 God! Perfect [is] His way, The saying of Jehovah is tried, A shield He [is] to all those trusting in Him.
“Ọlọ́run yìí, pípé ni ọ̀nà rẹ̀; ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa ni a ti dánwò. Òun sì ni asà fún gbogbo àwọn tí ó gbẹ́kẹ̀lé e.
32 For who is God save Jehovah? And who a Rock save our God?
Nítorí ta ni Ọlọ́run, bí kò ṣe Olúwa? Ta ni àpáta, bí kò ṣe Ọlọ́run wa.
33 God — my bulwark, [my] strength, And He maketh perfect my way;
Ọlọ́run alágbára ni ó fún mi ní agbára, ó sì sọ ọ̀nà mi di títọ́.
34 Making my feet like hinds, And on my high places causeth me to stand,
Ó ṣe ẹsẹ̀ mi bí ẹsẹ̀ abo àgbọ̀nrín; ó sì mú mi dúró ní ibi gíga mi.
35 Teaching my hands for battle, And brought down was a bow of brass by mine arms,
Ó kọ́ ọwọ́ mi ní ogun jíjà; tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí apá mi fa ọrun idẹ.
36 And Thou givest to me the shield of Thy salvation, And Thy lowliness maketh me great.
Ìwọ sì ti fún mi ní asà ìgbàlà rẹ̀; ìrẹ̀lẹ̀ rẹ̀ sì ti sọ mí di ńlá.
37 Thou enlargest my step under me, And mine ankles have not slidden.
Ìwọ sì sọ ìtẹ̀lẹ̀ di ńlá ní abẹ́ mi; tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ẹsẹ̀ mi kò fi yọ̀.
38 I pursue mine enemies and destroy them, And I turn not till they are consumed.
“Èmi ti lépa àwọn ọ̀tá mi, èmi sì ti run wọ́n, èmi kò pẹ̀yìndà títí èmi fi run wọ́n.
39 And I consume them, and smite them, And they rise not, and fall under my feet.
Èmi ti pa wọ́n run, èmi sì ti fọ́ wọn, wọn kò sì le dìde mọ́, wọ́n ṣubú lábẹ́ mi.
40 And Thou girdest me [with] strength for battle, Thou causest my withstanders to bow under me.
Ìwọ sì ti fi agbára dì mí ní àmùrè fún ìjà; àwọn tí ó ti dìde sí mi ni ìwọ sì ti tẹ̀ lórí ba fún mi.
41 And mine enemies — Thou givest to me the neck, Those hating me — and I cut them off.
Ìwọ sì mú àwọn ọ̀tá mi pẹ̀yìndà fún mi, èmi ó sì pa àwọn tí ó kórìíra mi run.
42 They look, and there is no saviour; Unto Jehovah, and He hath not answered them.
Wọ́n wò, ṣùgbọ́n kò sí ẹnìkan láti gbà wọ́n; wọ́n wo Olúwa, ṣùgbọ́n kò dá àwọn lóhùn.
43 And I beat them as dust of the earth, As mire of the streets I beat them small — I spread them out!
Nígbà náà ni èmi sì gún wọn wẹ́wẹ́ bí erùpẹ̀ ilẹ̀, èmi sì tẹ̀ wọ́n mọ́lẹ̀ bí ẹrẹ̀ ìta, èmi sì tẹ́ wọn gbọrọ.
44 And — Thou dost deliver me From the strivings of my people, Thou placest me for a head of nations; A people I have not known do serve me.
“Ìwọ sì gbà mí kúrò lọ́wọ́ ìjà àwọn ènìyàn mi, ìwọ pa mi mọ́ ki èmi lè ṣe olórí àwọn àjèjì orílẹ̀-èdè. Àwọn ènìyàn tí èmi kò tí mọ̀ yóò máa sìn mí.
45 Sons of a stranger feign obedience to me, At the hearing of the ear they hearken to me.
Àwọn àjèjì wá láti tẹríba fún mi; bí wọ́n bá ti gbúròó mi, wọ́n á sì gbọ́ tèmi.
46 Sons of a stranger fade away, And gird themselves by their close places.
Àyà yóò pá àwọn àlejò, wọ́n ó sì fi ìbẹ̀rù sá kúrò níbi kọ́lọ́fín wọn.
47 Jehovah liveth, and blessed [is] my Rock, And exalted is my God — The Rock of my salvation.
“Olúwa ń bẹ́; olùbùkún sì ni àpáta mi! Gbígbéga sì ni Ọlọ́run àpáta ìgbàlà mi.
48 God — who is giving vengeance to me, And bringing down peoples under me,
Ọlọ́run ni ẹni tí ń gbẹ̀san mi, àti ẹni tí ń rẹ àwọn ènìyàn sílẹ̀ lábẹ́ mi.
49 And bringing me forth from mine enemies, Yea, above my withstanders Thou raisest me up. From a man of violence Thou deliverest me.
Àti ẹni tí ó gbà mí kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá mi. Ìwọ sì gbé mi sókè ju àwọn tí ó kórìíra mi lọ; ìwọ sì gbà mí kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọkùnrin oníwà ipá.
50 Therefore I confess Thee, O Jehovah, among nations. And to Thy name I sing praise.
Nítorí náà èmi ó fi ọpẹ́ fún ọ, Olúwa, láàrín àwọn àjèjì orílẹ̀-èdè, èmi ó sì kọrin sí orúkọ rẹ.
51 Magnifying the salvations of His king, And doing loving-kindness to His anointed, To David, and to his seed — unto the age!'
“Òun ni ilé ìṣọ́ ìgbàlà fún ọba rẹ̀; ó sì fi àánú hàn fún ẹni àmì òróró rẹ̀, fún Dafidi, àti fún irú-ọmọ rẹ̀ títí láéláé.”
