Psalms 78
1 An Instruction of Asaph. Give ear, O my people, to my law, Incline your ear to sayings of my mouth.
Maskili ti Asafu. Ẹ̀yin ènìyàn mi, ẹ gbọ́ ẹ̀kọ́ mi; tẹ́tí rẹ sí ọ̀rọ̀ ẹnu mi.
2 I open with a simile my mouth, I bring forth hidden things of old,
Èmi ó la ẹnu mi ní òwe, èmi o sọ ohun ìkọ̀kọ̀, ohun ti ọjọ́ pípẹ́;
3 That we have heard and do know, And our fathers have recounted to us.
ohun tí a ti gbọ́ tí a sì ti mọ̀, ohun tí àwọn baba wa ti sọ fún wa.
4 We do not hide from their sons, To a later generation recounting praises of Jehovah, And His strength, and His wonders that He hath done.
Àwa kì yóò pa wọ́n mọ́ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ àwọn ọmọ, ní fífi ìyìn Olúwa, àti ipa rẹ̀ àti iṣẹ́ ìyanu tó ti ṣe hàn fún ìran tí ń bọ̀.
5 And He raiseth up a testimony in Jacob, And a law hath placed in Israel, That He commanded our fathers, To make them known to their sons.
Ó gbé ẹ̀rí kalẹ̀ ní Jakọbu o sì fìdí àṣẹ múlẹ̀ ní Israẹli, èyí tí ó pàṣẹ fún àwọn baba ńlá wa láti kọ́ àwọn ọmọ wọn,
6 So that a later generation doth know, Sons who are born, do rise and recount to their sons,
nítorí náà, àwọn ìran tí ń bọ̀ yóò mọ̀ wọ́n bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ọmọ tí a kò tí ì bí tí yóò dìde tí wọn yóò sọ fún àwọn ọmọ wọn.
7 And place in God their confidence, And forget not the doings of God, But keep His commands.
Nígbà náà ni wọ́n ò fi ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé wọn sínú Ọlọ́run wọn kò sì ní gbàgbé iṣẹ́ Ọlọ́run ṣùgbọ́n wọn ó pa àṣẹ rẹ̀ mọ́.
8 And they are not like their fathers, A generation apostate and rebellious, A generation! it hath not prepared its heart, Nor stedfast with God [is] its spirit.
Kí wọn kí ó má ṣe dàbí àwọn baba ńlá wọn, ìran alágídí àti ọlọ́tẹ̀, ìran tí ọkàn wọn kò ṣọ òtítọ́ si olóore, àti ẹ̀mí ẹni tí kò bá Ọlọ́run dúró ṣinṣin.
9 Sons of Ephraim — armed bearers of bow, Have turned in a day of conflict.
Àwọn ọkùnrin Efraimu, tí ó há mọ́ ọ tí wọ́n mú ọrun, wọ́n yípadà ní ọjọ́ ogun
10 They have not kept the covenant of God, And in His law they have refused to walk,
Wọn kò pa májẹ̀mú Ọlọ́run mọ́ wọn sì kọ̀ láti máa gbé nínú òfin rẹ̀.
11 And they forget His doings, And His wonders that He shewed them.
Wọ́n gbàgbé ohun tí ó ti ṣe, àwọn ìyanu tí ó ti fihàn wọ́n.
12 Before their fathers He hath done wonders, In the land of Egypt — the field of Zoan.
Ó ṣe ìyanu níwájú àwọn baba wọn ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, ní agbègbè Ṣoani.
13 He cleft a sea, and causeth them to pass over, Yea, He causeth waters to stand as a heap.
Ó pín òkun ní yà, ó sì mú wọn kọjá Ó mù kí omi náà dúró bi odi gíga.
14 And leadeth them with a cloud by day, And all the night with a light of fire.
Ní ọ̀sán, ó fi ìkùùkuu àwọsánmọ̀ ṣe amọ̀nà wọn àti ní gbogbo òru pẹ̀lú ìmọ́lẹ̀ iná.
15 He cleaveth rocks in a wilderness, And giveth drink — as the great deep.
Ó sán àpáta ní aginjù ó sì fún wọn ní omi mímu lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀ bí ẹni pé láti inú ibú wá.
16 And bringeth out streams from a rock, And causeth waters to come down as rivers.
Ó mú ìṣàn omi jáde láti inú àpáta omi ṣíṣàn sílẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí odò.
17 And they add still to sin against Him, To provoke the Most High in the dry place.
Wọ́n sì tún tẹ̀síwájú láti dẹ́ṣẹ̀ sí i ní ìṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Ọ̀gá-ògo ní aginjù.
18 And they try God in their heart, To ask food for their lust.
Wọ́n mọ̀ ọ́n mọ̀ dán Ọlọ́run wò nípa bíbéèrè fún oúnjẹ tí wọn bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún.
19 And they speak against God — they said: 'Is God able to array a table in a wilderness?'
Wọ́n sọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí Ọlọ́run, wí pé “Ọlọ́run ha lè tẹ́ tábìlì ní aginjù?
20 Lo, He hath smitten a rock, And waters flow, yea, streams overflow. 'Also — bread [is] He able to give? Doth He prepare flesh for His people?'
Nígbà tí ó lu àpáta, omi tú jáde, odò sì sàn lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀ ṣùgbọ́n òun ha lè fún wa lóúnjẹ ó ha le pèsè ẹran fún àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀?”
21 Therefore hath Jehovah heard, And He sheweth Himself wroth, And fire hath been kindled against Jacob, And anger also hath gone up against Israel,
Nígbà tí Olúwa gbọ́ wọn, ó bínú gidigidi; iná rẹ̀ sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí Jakọbu, ìbínú rẹ̀ sì rú sí Israẹli,
22 For they have not believed in God, Nor have they trusted in His salvation.
nítorí wọn kò gba Ọlọ́run gbọ́, wọn kò sì gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ìgbàlà rẹ̀.
23 And He commandeth clouds from above, Yea, doors of the heavens He hath opened.
Síbẹ̀ ó pàṣẹ fún ìràwọ̀ ojú ọ̀run, ó sì ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn ọ̀run sílẹ̀;
24 And He raineth on them manna to eat, Yea, corn of heaven He hath given to them.
Ó rọ manna fún àwọn ènìyàn láti jẹ, ó fún wọn ní ọkà láti ọ̀run.
25 Food of the mighty hath each eaten, Venison He sent to them to satiety.
Àwọn ènìyàn jẹ oúnjẹ àwọn angẹli; Ó fún wọn ní oúnjẹ ní àjẹyó,
26 He causeth an east wind to journey in the heavens, And leadeth by His strength a south wind,
Ó mú afẹ́fẹ́ ìlà-oòrùn láti ọ̀run wá ó mú afẹ́fẹ́ gúúsù wá nípa agbára rẹ̀.
27 And He raineth on them flesh as dust, And as sand of the seas — winged fowl,
Ó rọ òjò ẹran sílẹ̀ sórí wọn bí erùpẹ̀ ilẹ̀, àti ẹyẹ abìyẹ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí iyanrìn etí òkun
28 And causeth [it] to fall in the midst of His camp, Round about His tabernacles.
Ó jẹ́ kí wọn jáde ní ibùdó wọn, yíká àgọ́ wọn.
29 And they eat, and are greatly satisfied, And their desire He bringeth to them.
Wọ́n jẹ, wọ́n sì yó jọjọ nítorí ó ti fún wọn ní ohun tí wọn fìtara bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún.
30 They have not been estranged from their desire, Yet [is] their food in their mouth,
Ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò kúrò nínú oúnjẹ tí wọn fìtara bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún, nígbà tí oúnjẹ wọn sì wà ní ẹnu wọn,
31 And the anger of God hath gone up against them, And He slayeth among their fat ones, And youths of Israel He caused to bend.
ìbínú Ọlọ́run dìde sí wọn ó pa àwọn tí ó jùlọ nínú wọn, ó sì lu àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin Israẹli bolẹ̀.
32 With all this they have sinned again, And have not believed in His wonders.
Nínú gbogbo ìwọ̀nyí, wọ́n ń dẹ́ṣẹ̀ síwájú; nínú gbogbo iṣẹ́ ìyanu rẹ̀, wọ́n kò gbàgbọ́.
33 And He consumeth in vanity their days, And their years in trouble.
O fi òpin sí ayé wọn nínú asán àti ọdún wọn nínú ìpayà.
34 If He slew them, then they sought Him, And turned back, and sought God earnestly,
Nígbàkígbà tí Ọlọ́run bá pa wọ́n, wọn yóò wá a kiri; wọn yóò fi ìtara yípadà sí i.
35 And they remember that God [is] their rock, And God Most High their redeemer.
Wọ́n rántí pé Ọlọ́run ní àpáta wọn; wí pé Ọlọ́run Ọ̀gá-ògo jùlọ ni olùràpadà àpáta wọn.
36 And — they deceive Him with their mouth, And with their tongue do lie to Him,
Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà náà ni wọ́n yóò pọ́n ọn pẹ̀lú ẹnu wọ́n wọ́n fi ahọ́n wọ́n purọ́ fún un;
37 And their heart hath not been right with Him, And they have not been stedfast in His covenant.
ọkàn wọn kò sòtítọ́ sí i, wọn kò jẹ́ olódodo sí májẹ̀mú rẹ̀.
38 And He — the Merciful One, Pardoneth iniquity, and destroyeth not, And hath often turned back His anger, And waketh not up all His fury.
Síbẹ̀ ó ṣàánú; ó dárí àìṣedéédéé wọn jì òun kò sì pa wọ́n run nígbà púpọ̀ ló ń yí ìbínú rẹ̀ padà kò sì ru ìbínú rẹ̀ sókè
39 And He remembereth that they [are] flesh, A wind going on — and it returneth not.
Ó rántí pé ẹlẹ́ran ara ni wọ́n, afẹ́fẹ́ tó ń kọjá tí kò lè padà.
40 How often do they provoke Him in the wilderness, Grieve Him in the desolate place?
Nígbà gbogbo ní wọn ń ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí i ní aginjù wọn mú un bínú nínú ilẹ̀ tí ó di ahoro!
41 Yea, they turn back, and try God, And the Holy One of Israel have limited.
Síwájú àti síwájú wọ́n dán Ọlọ́run wò; wọ́n mú ẹni mímọ́ Israẹli bínú.
42 They have not remembered His hand The day He ransomed them from the adversary.
Wọ́n kò rántí agbára rẹ̀: ní ọjọ́ tí ó rà wọ́n padà lọ́wọ́ àwọn aninilára,
43 When He set His signs in Egypt, And His wonders in the field of Zoan,
ní ọjọ́ tí ó fi iṣẹ́ ìyanu rẹ̀ hàn ní Ejibiti, àti iṣẹ́ àmì rẹ̀ ni ẹkùn Ṣoani
44 And He turneth to blood their streams, And their floods they drink not.
Ó sọ omi wọn di ẹ̀jẹ̀; wọn kò lè mu láti odò wọn.
45 He sendeth among them the beetle, and it consumeth them, And the frog, and it destroyeth them,
Ó rán ọ̀wọ́ eṣinṣin láti pa wọ́n run, àti ọ̀pọ̀lọ́ tí ó bá wọn jẹun.
46 And giveth to the caterpillar their increase, And their labour to the locust.
Ó fi ọkà wọn fún láńtata, àwọn ìre oko wọn fún eṣú.
47 He destroyeth with hail their vine, And their sycamores with frost,
Ó fi yìnyín ba àjàrà wọn jẹ́ ó bá èso sikamore wọn jẹ́.
48 And delivereth up to the hail their beasts, And their cattle to the burning flames.
Ó fi ohun ọ̀sìn wọn fún yìnyín, agbo ẹran wọn fún mọ̀nàmọ́ná.
49 He sendeth on them the fury of His anger, Wrath, and indignation, and distress — A discharge of evil messengers.
Ó mú kíkorò ìbínú rẹ̀ wá sí wọn lára, ìrunú àti ìkáàánú, àti ìpọ́njú, nípa rírán angẹli apanirun sí wọn.
50 He pondereth a path for His anger, He kept not back their soul from death, Yea, their life to the pestilence He delivered up.
Ó pèsè ipa fún ìbínú rẹ̀, òun kò gbà wọ́n lọ́wọ́ ikú, ṣùgbọ́n ó fi ẹ̀mí wọ́n fún àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn.
51 And He smiteth every first-born in Egypt, The first-fruit of the strong in tents of Ham.
Ó kọlu àwọn àkọ́bí ọmọ ọkùnrin Ejibiti, olórí agbára wọn nínú àgọ́ Hamu.
52 And causeth His people to journey as a flock, And guideth them as a drove in a wilderness,
Ṣùgbọ́n ó mú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ jáde bí ọ̀wọ́ ẹran; ó ṣọ́ wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí àgùntàn nínú aginjù.
53 And He leadeth them confidently, And they have not been afraid, And their enemies hath the sea covered.
Ó dáàbò bò wọ́n dáradára, nítorí náà ni ẹ̀rù kò ṣe bà wọ́n ṣùgbọ́n òkun padé mọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá wọn.
54 And He bringeth them in unto the border of His sanctuary, This mountain His right hand had got,
Bákan náà ni ó mú wọn wá sí etí ilẹ̀ mímọ́ rẹ̀ òkè tí ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ̀ ti gbà
55 And casteth out nations from before them, And causeth them to fall in the line of inheritance, And causeth the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents,
Ó lé kèfèrí jáde níwájú wọn ó sì fi títa okùn pín ilẹ̀ náà fún wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilẹ̀ ìní; ó mú àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli jókòó ní ilẹ̀ wọn.
56 And they tempt and provoke God Most High, And His testimonies have not kept.
Ṣùgbọ́n wọn dán Ọlọ́run wò wọn sì ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Ọ̀gá-ògo; wọn kò pa àṣẹ rẹ̀ mọ́.
57 And they turn back, And deal treacherously like their fathers, They have been turned like a deceitful bow,
Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n yípadà, wọn jẹ́ aláìṣòdodo gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn baba wọn wọ́n sì pẹ̀yìndà sí apákan bí ọrun ẹ̀tàn.
58 And make Him angry with their high places, And with their graven images make Him zealous,
Wọ́n bí i nínú pẹ̀lú ibi gíga wọn; wọn rú owú rẹ̀ sókè nípa òrìṣà wọn.
59 God hath heard, and sheweth Himself wroth. And kicketh exceedingly against Israel.
Nígbà tí Ọlọ́run gbọ́ wọn, inú bí i gidigidi; ó kọ Israẹli pátápátá.
60 And He leaveth the tabernacle of Shiloh, The tent He had placed among men,
Ó kọ àgọ́ Ṣilo sílẹ̀, àgọ́ tí ó ti gbé kalẹ̀ láàrín àwọn ènìyàn.
61 And He giveth His strength to captivity, And His beauty into the hand of an adversary,
Ó rán àpótí ẹ̀rí, agbára rẹ̀ lọ sí ìgbèkùn, dídán ògo rẹ̀ lọ sí ọwọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá.
62 And delivereth up to the sword His people, And with His inheritance shewed Himself angry.
Ó fi àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ lé idà lọ́wọ́, ó sì bínú sí àwọn ohun ìní rẹ̀.
63 His young men hath fire consumed, And His virgins have not been praised.
Iná run àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin wọn, àwọn ọmọbìnrin wọn kò sì ní orin ìgbéyàwó:
64 His priests by the sword have fallen, And their widows weep not.
àfi àlùfáà wọn fún idà, àwọn opó wọn kò sì le è sọkún.
65 And the Lord waketh as a sleeper, As a mighty one crying aloud from wine.
Olúwa sì jí gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹni ojú oorun, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọkùnrin ti i jí kúrò nínú ìraníyè ọtí.
66 And He smiteth His adversaries backward, A reproach age-during He hath put on them,
Ó kọlu àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀ padà; ó fi wọn sínú ìtìjú ayérayé.
67 And He kicketh against the tent of Joseph, And on the tribe of Ephraim hath not fixed.
Nígbà náà ni ó kọ́ àgọ́ Josẹfu, kò sì yan ẹ̀yà Efraimu,
68 And He chooseth the tribe of Judah, With mount Zion that He loved,
ṣùgbọ́n ó yan ẹ̀yà Juda, òkè Sioni, èyí tí ó fẹ́ràn.
69 And buildeth His sanctuary as a high place, Like the earth, He founded it to the age.
Ó kọ́ ibi mímọ́ rẹ̀, ibi gíga, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ayé tí ó fi ìdí rẹ̀ múlẹ̀ títí láé.
70 And He fixeth on David His servant, And taketh him from the folds of a flock,
Ó yan Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ó mú láti inú àwọn agbo ẹran;
71 From behind suckling ones He hath brought him in, To rule over Jacob His people, And over Israel His inheritance.
Ó mú un jáde nínú ìtọ́jú àgùntàn láti jẹ́ olùṣọ́-àgùntàn àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ Jakọbu àti Israẹli ogún un rẹ̀.
72 And he ruleth them according to the integrity of his heart, And by the skilfulness of his hands leadeth them!
Dafidi sì ṣọ́ wọn pẹ̀lú òtítọ́ inú ọkàn; pẹ̀lú ọwọ́ òye ni ó fi darí wọn.
