Psalms 102
1 Àdúrà olùpọ́njú tí àárẹ̀ mú, tí ó sí ọkàn rẹ̀ payá níwájú Olúwa. Gbọ́ àdúrà mi, Olúwa, jẹ́ kí igbe ẹ̀bẹ̀ mi kí ó wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ.
A PRAYER OF THE AFFLICTED WHEN HE IS FEEBLE, AND POURS OUT HIS COMPLAINT BEFORE YHWH. O YHWH, hear my prayer, indeed, my cry comes to You.
2 Má ṣe pa ojú rẹ mọ́ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi ní ọjọ́ tí èmi wà nínú ìpọ́njú. Dẹ etí rẹ sí mi; nígbà tí mo bá pè, dá mi lóhùn kíákíá.
Do not hide Your face from me, In a day of my adversity, Incline Your ear to me, In the day I call, hurry, answer me.
3 Nítorí tí ọjọ́ mi run bí èéfín; egungun mi sì jóná bí ààrò.
For my days have been consumed in smoke, And my bones have burned as a firebrand.
4 Àyà mi lù, ó sì rọ bí i koríko; mo gbàgbé láti jẹ oúnjẹ mi.
Struck as the herb, and withered, is my heart, For I have forgotten to eat my bread.
5 Nítorí ohùn ìkérora mi, egungun mi lẹ̀ mọ́ ẹran-ara mi.
From the voice of my sighing My bone has cleaved to my flesh.
6 Èmi dàbí ẹyẹ igún ní ijù: èmi dàbí òwìwí ibi ahoro.
I have been like to a pelican of the wilderness, I have been as an owl of the dry places.
7 Èmi dìde; èmi dàbí ẹyẹ lórí ilé.
I have watched, and I am As a bird alone on the roof.
8 Ní ọjọ́ gbogbo, àwọn ọ̀tá ológoṣẹ́ mi ń gàn mí; àwọn tí ń ṣe ìkanra sí mi ń fi orúkọ mi bú.
All the day my enemies reproached me, Those mad at me have sworn against me.
9 Èmi jẹ eérú gẹ́gẹ́ bí oúnjẹ mi, èmi sì da ohun mímu mi pọ̀ pẹ̀lú omijé.
Because I have eaten ashes as bread, And have mingled my drink with weeping,
10 Nítorí ìbínú ríru rẹ, nítorí ìwọ ti gbé mi sókè, ìwọ sì gbé mi ṣánlẹ̀.
From Your indignation and Your wrath, For You have lifted me up, And cast me down.
11 Ọjọ́ mi dàbí òjìji àṣálẹ́ èmi sì rọ bí koríko.
My days [are] stretched out as a shadow, And I am withered as the herb.
12 Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ, Olúwa, ni yóò dúró láéláé; ìrántí rẹ láti ìran dé ìran.
And You, O YHWH, abide for all time, And Your memorial from generation to generation.
13 Ìwọ ó dìde ìwọ ó sì ṣàánú fún Sioni, nítorí ìgbà àti ṣe ojúrere sí i; àkókò náà ti dé.
You rise—You pity Zion, For the time to favor her, For the appointed time has come.
14 Nítorí tí àwọn òkúta jẹ́ inú dídùn sí àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ; wọ́n sì káàánú erùpẹ̀ rẹ.
For Your servants have been pleased with her stones, And they favor her dust.
15 Àwọn kèfèrí yóò bẹ̀rù orúkọ Olúwa, gbogbo ọba ayé yóò máa bẹ̀rù ògo rẹ.
And nations fear the Name of YHWH, And all kings of the earth Your glory,
16 Torí tí Olúwa yóò gbé Sioni ró, yóò farahàn nínú ògo rẹ̀.
For YHWH has built Zion, He has been seen in His glory,
17 Yóò dáhùn àdúrà àwọn aláìní; kì yóò sì gan ẹ̀bẹ̀ wọn.
He turned to the prayer of the destitute, And He has not despised their prayer.
18 Jẹ́ kí a kọ èyí fún ìran tí ń bọ̀, àwọn ènìyàn tí a kò tí ì dá yóò yin Olúwa:
This is written for a later generation, And the people created praise YAH.
19 “Olúwa wo ilẹ̀ láti òkè mímọ́ rẹ̀ wá láti ọ̀run wá ni ó bojú wo ayé,
For He has looked From the high place of His sanctuary. YHWH looked attentively from the heavens to earth,
20 láti gbọ́ ìrora ará túbú, láti tú àwọn tí a yàn sí ikú sílẹ̀.”
To hear the groan of the prisoner, To loose sons of death,
21 Kí a lè sọ orúkọ Olúwa ní Sioni àti ìyìn rẹ̀ ní Jerusalẹmu.
To declare in Zion the Name of YHWH, And His praise in Jerusalem,
22 Ní ìgbà tí a kó àwọn ènìyàn àti ìjọba pọ̀ láti máa sìn Olúwa.
In the peoples being gathered together, And the kingdoms—to serve YHWH.
23 Ní ipa ọ̀nà mi, ó rẹ agbára mi sílẹ̀, ó gé ọjọ́ mi kúrú.
He has humbled my power in the way, He has shortened my days.
24 Èmi sì wí pé: “Ọlọ́run mi, má ṣe mú mi kúrò ní agbede-méjì ọjọ́ mi; ọdún rẹ̀ ń lọ láti ìran dé ìran.
I say, “My God, do not take me up in the midst of my days,” Your years [are] through all generations.
25 Ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ ní ìwọ fi ìpìlẹ̀ ayé sọlẹ̀, ọ̀run sì jẹ́ iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ rẹ.
You founded the earth before time, And the heavens [are] the work of Your hands.
26 Wọn yóò ṣègbé, wọn yóò parun, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ yóò wà; gbogbo wọn ni yóò gbó bí aṣọ. Bí ẹ̀wù ni ìwọ yóò pààrọ̀ wọn wọn yóò sì di àpatì.
They perish, and You remain, And all of them become old as a garment, You change them as clothing, And they are changed.
27 Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ wà digbí síbẹ̀, ọdún rẹ kò sì ní òpin.
And You [are] the same, and Your years are not finished.
28 Àwọn ọmọ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ yóò dúró ní iwájú rẹ pẹ́; a ó sì fi ẹsẹ̀ irú-ọmọ wọn sọlẹ̀ ní iwájú rẹ.”
The sons of Your servants continue, And their seed is established before You!
