Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And forget not all His benefits,
3 ẹni tí ó dárí gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀ jì ọ́ tí ó sì wo gbogbo ààrùn rẹ̀ sàn,
Who is forgiving all thine iniquities, Who is healing all thy diseases,
4 ẹni tí ó ra ẹ̀mí rẹ padà kúrò nínú kòtò ikú ẹni tí ó fi ìṣeun ìfẹ́ àti ìyọ́nú dé ọ ní adé,
Who is redeeming from destruction thy life, Who is crowning thee — kindness and mercies,
5 ẹni tí ó fi ohun dídára tẹ́ ọ lọ́rùn kí ìgbà èwe rẹ̀ lè di ọ̀tún bí ti ẹyẹ idì.
Who is satisfying with good thy desire, Renew itself as an eagle doth thy youth.
6 Olúwa ń ṣe òdodo àti ìdájọ́ fún gbogbo àwọn tí a ni lára.
Jehovah is doing righteousness and judgments For all the oppressed.
7 Ó fi ọ̀nà rẹ̀ hàn fún Mose, iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ fun àwọn ọmọ Israẹli;
He maketh known His ways to Moses, To the sons of Israel His acts.
8 Olúwa ni aláàánú àti olóore, ó lọ́ra láti bínú, ó sì pọ̀ ní ìfẹ́.
Merciful and gracious [is] Jehovah, Slow to anger, and abundant in mercy.
9 Òun kì í bá ni wí ní ìgbà gbogbo bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kì í pa ìbínú rẹ mọ́ láéláé,
Not for ever doth He strive, Nor to the age doth He watch.
10 Òun kì í ṣe sí wa gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wa bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kì í san án fún wa gẹ́gẹ́ bí àìṣedéédéé wa.
Not according to our sins hath He done to us, Nor according to our iniquities Hath He conferred benefits upon us.
11 Nítorí bí ọ̀run ṣe ga sílẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìfẹ́ rẹ̀ tóbi sí àwọn tí ó bẹ̀rù rẹ̀.
For, as the height of the heavens [is] above the earth, His kindness hath been mighty over those fearing Him.
12 Bí ìlà-oòrùn ti jìnnà sí ìwọ̀-oòrùn bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó ṣe mú ìrékọjá wá jìnnà sí wa.
As the distance of east from west He hath put far from us our transgressions.
13 Bí baba ti ń ṣe ìyọ́nú sí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa ń ṣe ìyọ́nú sí àwọn tí ó bẹ̀rù rẹ̀,
As a father hath mercy on sons, Jehovah hath mercy on those fearing Him.
14 nítorí tí ó mọ dídá wa, ó rántí pé erùpẹ̀ ni wá.
For He hath known our frame, Remembering that we [are] dust.
15 Bí ó ṣe ti ènìyàn ni, ọjọ́ rẹ̀ dàbí koríko, ó gbilẹ̀ bí ìtànná ewéko igbó,
Mortal man! as grass [are] his days, As a flower of the field so he flourisheth;
16 afẹ́fẹ́ fẹ́ kọjá lọ lórí rẹ̀, kò sì rántí ibùjókòó rẹ̀ mọ́.
For a wind hath passed over it, and it is not, And its place doth not discern it any more.
17 Ṣùgbọ́n láti ayérayé ni ìfẹ́ Olúwa ti wà pẹ̀lú àwọn tí ó bẹ̀rù rẹ̀, àti òdodo rẹ̀ wà láti ọmọdọ́mọ,
And the kindness of Jehovah [Is] from age even unto age on those fearing Him, And His righteousness to sons' sons,
18 sí àwọn tí ó pa májẹ̀mú rẹ̀ mọ́ àti àwọn tí ó rántí òfin rẹ̀ láti ṣe wọ́n.
To those keeping His covenant, And to those remembering His precepts to do them.
19 Olúwa ti pèsè ìtẹ́ rẹ̀ nínú ọ̀run, ìjọba rẹ̀ ní ó sì borí ohun gbogbo.
Jehovah in the heavens Hath established His throne, And His kingdom over all hath ruled.
20 Yin Olúwa, ẹ̀yin angẹli rẹ̀, tí ó ní ipá, tí ó pa òfin ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ mọ́, tì ó sì ń se ìfẹ́ rẹ̀.
Bless Jehovah, ye His messengers, Mighty in power — doing His word, To hearken to the voice of His Word.
21 Yin Olúwa, ẹ̀yin ogun ọ̀run rẹ̀ gbogbo, ẹ̀yin ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ tí ń ṣe ìfẹ́ rẹ̀.
Bless Jehovah, all ye His hosts, His ministers — doing His pleasure.

Bless Jehovah, all ye His works, In all places of His dominion. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah!
