< Psalms 104 >
1 Yin Olúwa, ìwọ ọkàn mi. Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi, ìwọ tóbi jọjọ; ọlá àti ọláńlá ni ìwọ wọ̀ ní aṣọ.
For David himself. Bless the Lord, O my soul: O Lord my God, thou art exceedingly great. Thou hast put on praise and beauty:
2 Ìwọ fi ìmọ́lẹ̀ bo ara rẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí aṣọ; ó tẹ ọ̀run bí títẹ́ ẹní,
And art clothed with light as with a garment. Who stretchest out the heaven like a pavilion:
3 ìwọ tí ó fi omi ṣe ìtì igi àjà ìyẹ̀wù rẹ. Ìwọ tí o ṣe àwọsánmọ̀ ní kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun rẹ ìwọ tí ó ń rìn lórí apá ìyẹ́ afẹ́fẹ́.
Who coverest the higher rooms thereof with water. Who makest the clouds thy chariot: who walkest upon the wings of the winds.
4 Ó fi ẹ̀fúùfù ṣe àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, ọ̀wọ́-iná ni àwọn olùránṣẹ́ rẹ.
Who makest thy angels spirits: and thy ministers a burning fire.
5 O fi ayé gúnlẹ̀ lórí àwọn ìpìlẹ̀; tí a kò le è mì láéláé.
Who hast founded the earth upon its own bases: it shall not be moved for ever and ever.
6 Ìwọ fi ibú omi bò ó mọ́lẹ̀ bí aṣọ; àwọn omi sì dúró lórí àwọn òkè ńlá.
The deep like a garment is its clothing: above the mountains shall the waters stand.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n nípa ìbáwí rẹ ni àwọn omi lọ, nípa ohùn àrá rẹ ni wọ́n sálọ.
At thy rebuke they shall flee: at the voice of thy thunder they shall fear.
8 wọ́n sàn kọjá lórí àwọn òkè, wọ́n sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí àwọn pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀, sí ibi tí ìwọ ti yàn fún wọn.
The mountains ascend, and the plains descend into the place which thou hast founded for them.
9 Ìwọ gbé òpin tí wọn kò lè kọjá rẹ̀ kálẹ̀; láéláé ni wọ́n kò ní lè bo ayé mọ́lẹ̀ lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i.
Thou hast set a bound which they shall not pass over; neither shall they return to cover the earth.
10 Ìwọ mú kí ìsun da omi sí àwọn àfonífojì; tí ó ń sàn láàrín àwọn òkè.
Thou sendest forth springs in the vales: between the midst of the hills the waters shall pass.
11 Wọ́n fún gbogbo àwọn ẹranko igbó ní omi àwọn kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ ń pa òǹgbẹ wọn.
All the beasts of the field shall drink: the wild asses shall expect in their thirst.
12 Àwọn ẹyẹ ojú òfúrufú tẹ́ ìtẹ́ wọn lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ omi wọ́n ń kọrin láàrín àwọn ẹ̀ka.
Over them the birds of the air shall dwell: from the midst of the rocks they shall give forth their voices.
13 Ó bu omi rin àwọn òkè láti ìyẹ̀wù rẹ̀ wá; a tẹ́ ayé lọ́rùn nípa èso iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ rẹ.
Thou waterest the hills from thy upper rooms: the earth shall be filled with the fruit of thy works:
14 Ó mú kí koríko hù jáde fún àwọn ẹranko láti jẹ àti àwọn ewébẹ̀ fún ènìyàn láti lò, kí ó lè mú oúnjẹ jáde láti ilẹ̀ wá.
Bringing forth grass for cattle, and herb for the service of men. That thou mayst bring bread out of the earth:
15 Ọtí wáìnì tí ó ń mú ọkàn ènìyàn yọ̀, òróró láti mú ojú rẹ̀ tan, àti àkàrà láti ra ọkàn rẹ̀ padà.
And that wine may cheer the heart of man. That he may make the face cheerful with oil: and that bread may strengthen man’s heart.
16 Àwọn igi Olúwa ni a bu omi rin dáradára, kedari ti Lebanoni tí ó gbìn.
The trees of the field shall be filled, and the cedars of Libanus which he hath planted:
17 Níbẹ̀ ní àwọn ẹyẹ ṣe ìtẹ́ wọn bí ó ṣe tí àkọ̀ ni, orí igi gíga ni ilé rẹ̀.
There the sparrows shall make their nests. The highest of them is the house of the heron.
18 Àwọn òkè gíga ni ààbò fún àwọn ewúrẹ́ igbó; àti àwọn àlàpà jẹ́ ààbò fún àwọn ehoro.
The high hills are a refuge for the harts, the rock for the irchins.
19 Òṣùpá jẹ́ àmì fún àkókò oòrùn sì mọ ìgbà tí yóò wọ̀.
He hath made the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.
20 Ìwọ mú òkùnkùn wá, ó sì di òru, nínú èyí tí gbogbo ẹranko igbó ń rìn kiri.
Thou hast appointed darkness, and it is night: in it shall all the beasts of the woods go about:
21 Kìnnìún ń bú ramúramù fún ohun ọdẹ wọn wọ́n sì ń wá oúnjẹ wọn láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run.
The young lions roaring after their prey, and seeking their meat from God.
22 Oòrùn ràn, wọ́n sì kó ara wọn jọ, wọn padà lọ dùbúlẹ̀ sí ihò wọn.
The sun ariseth, and they are gathered together: and they shall lie down in their dens.
23 Ọkùnrin jáde lọ sí iṣẹ́ wọn, àti sí làálàá rẹ̀ títí di àṣálẹ́.
Man shall go forth to his work, and to his labour until the evening.
24 Iṣẹ́ rẹ ti pọ̀ tó, Olúwa! Nínú ọgbọ́n ni ìwọ ṣe gbogbo wọn: ayé kún fún àwọn ìṣẹ̀dá á rẹ.
How great are thy works, O Lord? thou hast made all things in wisdom: the earth is filled with thy riches.
25 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Òkun yìí tí ó tóbi, tí ó sì ni ìbú, tí ó kún fún àwọn ẹ̀dá alààyè ní ìsàlẹ̀ láìníye ohun alààyè tí tóbi àti kékeré.
So is this great sea, which stretcheth wide its arms: there are creeping things without number: Creatures little and great.
26 Níbẹ̀ ni ọkọ̀ ń lọ síwá sẹ́yìn, àti Lefitani, tí ìwọ dá láti ṣe àríyá nínú rẹ̀.
There the ships shall go. This sea dragon which thou hast formed to play therein.
27 Àwọn wọ̀nyí ń wò ọ́ láti fún wọn ní oúnjẹ wọn lákòókò rẹ̀.
All expect of thee that thou give them food in season.
28 Nígbà tí ìwọ bá fi fún wọn, wọn yóò kó jọ; nígbà tí ìwọ bá la ọwọ́ rẹ̀, a tẹ́ wọn lọ́rùn pẹ̀lú ohun rere.
What thou givest to them they shall gather up: when thou openest thy hand, they shall all be filled with good.
29 Nígbà tí ìwọ bá pa ojú rẹ mọ́ ara kò rọ̀ wọ́n nígbà tí ìwọ bá mú ẹ̀mí wọn lọ, wọn ó kú, wọn ó sì padà sí erùpẹ̀.
But if thou turnest away thy face, they shall be troubled: thou shalt take away their breath, and they shall fail, and shall return to their dust.
30 Nígbà tí ìwọ rán ẹ̀mí rẹ, ni a dá wọn, ìwọ sì tún ojú ayé ṣe.
Thou shalt send forth thy spirit, and they shall be created: and thou shalt renew the face of the earth.
31 Jẹ́ kí ògo Olúwa wà pẹ́ títí láé; kí inú Olúwa kí ó dùn ní ti iṣẹ́ rẹ̀,
May the glory of the Lord endure for ever: the Lord shall rejoice in his works.
32 ẹni tí ó wo ayé, tí ó sì wárìrì, ẹni tí ó fọwọ́ tọ́ àwọn òkè, tí wọ́n yọ èéfín.
He looketh upon the earth, and maketh it tremble: he toucheth the mountains, and they smoke.
33 Ní gbogbo ayé mi ní n ó kọrin sí Olúwa: èmi ó kọrin ìyìn sí Olúwa níwọ̀n ìgbà tí mo wà láààyè.
I will sing to the Lord as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
34 Jẹ́ kí ẹ̀kọ́ mi kí ó tẹ́ ọ lọ́rùn bí mo ti ń yọ̀ nínú Olúwa.
Let my speech be acceptable to him: but I will take delight in the Lord.
35 Ṣùgbọ́n kí ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ kúrò láyé kí ènìyàn búburú má sì sí mọ́. Yin Olúwa, ìwọ ọkàn mi. Yin Olúwa.
Let sinners be consumed out of the earth, and the unjust, so that they be no more: O my soul, bless thou the Lord.
