Psalms 109
1 Fún adarí orin. Ti Dafidi. Saamu. Ọlọ́run, ti èmi ń fi ìyìn fún, má ṣe dákẹ́,
Unto the end, a psalm for David.
2 nítorí àwọn ènìyàn búburú àti ẹlẹ́tàn ti ya ẹnu wọn sí mi wọ́n ti fi ahọ́n èké sọ̀rọ̀ sí mi.
O God, be not thou silent in thy praise: for the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful man is opened against me.
3 Wọ́n fi ọ̀rọ̀ ìríra yí mi káàkiri; wọ́n bá mi jà láìnídìí
They have spoken against with deceitful tongues; and they have compassed me about with words of hatred; and have fought against me without cause.
4 Nípò ìfẹ́ mi, wọn ń ṣe ọ̀tá mi, ṣùgbọ́n èmi ń gba àdúrà.
Instead of making me a return of love, they detracted me: but I gave myself to prayer.
5 Wọ́n sì fi ibi san ìre fún mi àti ìríra fún ìfẹ́ mi.
And they repaid me evil for good: and hatred for my love.
6 Yan àwọn ènìyàn búburú láti dojúkọ jẹ́ kí àwọn olùfisùn dúró ní ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ̀.
Set thou the sinner over him: and may the devil stand at his right hand.
7 Kí a dá a lẹ́bi nígbà tí a bá ṣe ìdájọ́ kí àdúrà rẹ̀ kí ó lè di ìkọ̀sílẹ̀.
When he is judged, may he go out condemned; and may his prayer be turned to sin.
8 Kí ọjọ́ rẹ̀ kí ó kúrú; kí ẹlòmíràn kí ó rọ́pò iṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
May his days be few: and his bishopric let another take.
9 Kí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ di aláìní baba kí aya rẹ̀ sì di opó.
May his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
10 Jẹ́ kí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ máa ṣagbe kiri kí wọn máa tọrọ oúnjẹ jìnnà sí ibi ahoro wọn.
Let his children be carried about vagabonds, and beg; and let them be cast out of their dwellings.
11 Jẹ́ kí alọ́nilọ́wọ́gbà kí ó mú ohun gbogbo tí ó ní jẹ́ kí àlejò kí o kó èrè iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ lọ.
May the userer search all his substance: and let strangers plunder his labours.
12 Má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹnìkan ṣe àánú fún un tàbí kí wọn káàánú lórí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ aláìní baba.
May there be none to help him: nor none to pity his fatherless offspring.
13 Kí a gé àrọ́mọdọ́mọ rẹ̀ kúrò kí orúkọ wọn kí ó parẹ́ ní ìran tí ń bọ̀.
May his posterity be cut off; in one generation may his name be blotted out.
14 Kí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àwọn baba rẹ̀ kí ó wà ní ìrántí ní ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa. Má ṣe jẹ́ kí a yọ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ìyá wọn kúrò.
May the iniquity of his fathers be remembered in the sight of the Lord: and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
15 Jẹ́ kí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn kí ó wà ní ìrántí níwájú Olúwa kí ó lè gé ìrántí wọn kúrò lórí ilẹ̀.
May they be before the lord continually, and let the memory of them perish from the earth:
16 Nítorí kò rántí láti ṣàánú, ṣùgbọ́n ó ṣe inúnibíni sí ọkùnrin tálákà àti olùpọ́njú, kí ó lè pa oníròbìnújẹ́ ọkàn.
Because he remembered not to show mercy,
17 Ó fẹ́ràn láti máa mú ègún wá sí orí rẹ̀: bi inú rẹ̀ kò ti dùn si ìre, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ó jìnnà sí.
But persecuted the poor man and the beggar; and the broken in heart, to put him to death.
18 Bí ó ti fi ègún wọ ará rẹ̀ láṣọ bí ẹ̀wù bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ó wá sí inú rẹ̀ bí omi.
And he loved cursing, and it shall come unto him: and he would not have blessing, and it shall be far from him. And he put on cursing, like a garment: and it went in like water into his entrails, and like oil in his bones.
19 Jẹ́ kí ó rí fún un bí aṣọ tí a dà bò ó ní ara, àti fún àmùrè tí ó fi gba ọ̀já nígbà gbogbo.
May it be unto him like a garment which covereth him; and like a girdle with which he is girded continually.
20 Èyí ni èrè àwọn ọ̀tá mi láti ọwọ́ Olúwa wá; àti ti àwọn tí ń sọ̀rọ̀ ibi sí ọkàn mi.
This is the work of them who detract me before the Lord; and who speak evils against my soul.
21 Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ, ìwọ ṣe fún mi Olúwa Olódùmarè, ṣe rere fún mi nítorí orúkọ rẹ. Nítorí tí àánú rẹ dára, ìwọ gbà mí.
But thou, O Lord, do with for thy names sake: because thy mercy is sweet. Do thou deliver me.
22 Nítorí pé tálákà àti aláìní ni mí, àyà mi sì gbọgbẹ́ nínú mi.
For I am poor and needy, and my heart is troubled within me.
23 Èmi ń kọjá lọ bí òjìji tí àṣálẹ́, mo ń gbọ̀n sókè bí eṣú.
I am taken away like the shadow when it declineth: and I am shaken off as locusts.
24 Eékún mi di aláìlera nítorí àwẹ̀ gbígbà ẹran-ara mi sì gbẹ nítorí àìlera mi.
My knees are weakened through fasting: and my flesh is changed for oil.
25 Mo dàbí ẹ̀gàn fún àwọn olùfisùn mi; nígbà tí wọn wò mí, wọ́n gbọn orí wọn.
And I am become a reproach to them: they saw me and they shaked their heads,
26 Ràn mí lọ́wọ́, Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi; gbà mí gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìṣeun ìfẹ́ rẹ.
Help me, O Lord my God; save me according to thy mercy.
27 Jẹ́ kí wọn mọ̀ pé ọwọ́ rẹ ni èyí wí pé ìwọ, Olúwa, ni ó ṣe é.
And let them know that this is thy hand: and that thou, O Lord, hast done it.
28 Wọ́n ó máa gégùn ún, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ máa súre, nígbà tí wọn bá dìde kí ojú kí ó tì wọ́n, ṣùgbọ́n ìránṣẹ́ rẹ yóò yọ̀.
They will curse and thou will bless: let them that rise up against me be confounded: but thy servant shall rejoice.
29 Jẹ́ kí a wọ àwọn ọ̀tá mi ní aṣọ ìtìjú kí á sì fi ìdàrúdàpọ̀ bọ̀ wọ́n lára bí ẹ̀wù.
Let them that detract me be clothed with shame: and let them be covered with the their confusion as with a double cloak.
30 Pẹ̀lú ẹnu mi èmi yóò máa yin Olúwa gidigidi ní àárín ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn èmi yóò máa yìn ín.
I will give great thanks to the Lord with my mouth: and in the midst of many I will praise him.
31 Nítorí ó dúró ní apá ọ̀tún aláìní láti gbà á lọ́wọ́ àwọn tí ń dá ọkàn rẹ̀ lẹ́bi.
Because he hath stood at the right hand of the poor, to save my soul from persecutors.
