Psalms 109
1 Fún adarí orin. Ti Dafidi. Saamu. Ọlọ́run, ti èmi ń fi ìyìn fún, má ṣe dákẹ́,
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;
2 nítorí àwọn ènìyàn búburú àti ẹlẹ́tàn ti ya ẹnu wọn sí mi wọ́n ti fi ahọ́n èké sọ̀rọ̀ sí mi.
For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit have they opened against me: they have spoken unto me with a lying tongue.
3 Wọ́n fi ọ̀rọ̀ ìríra yí mi káàkiri; wọ́n bá mi jà láìnídìí
They compassed me about also with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause.
4 Nípò ìfẹ́ mi, wọn ń ṣe ọ̀tá mi, ṣùgbọ́n èmi ń gba àdúrà.
For my love they are my adversaries: but I [give myself unto] prayer.
5 Wọ́n sì fi ibi san ìre fún mi àti ìríra fún ìfẹ́ mi.
And they have rewarded 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 a wicked man over him: and let an adversary 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, let him come forth guilty; and let his prayer be turned into sin.
8 Kí ọjọ́ rẹ̀ kí ó kúrú; kí ẹlòmíràn kí ó rọ́pò iṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
Let his days be few; [and] let another take his office.
9 Kí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ di aláìní baba kí aya rẹ̀ sì di opó.
Let 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 vagabonds, and beg; and let them seek [their bread] out of their desolate places.
11 Jẹ́ kí alọ́nilọ́wọ́gbà kí ó mú ohun gbogbo tí ó ní jẹ́ kí àlejò kí o kó èrè iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ lọ.
Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let strangers make spoil of his labour.
12 Má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹnìkan ṣe àánú fún un tàbí kí wọn káàánú lórí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ aláìní baba.
Let there be none to extend mercy unto him; neither let there be any to have pity on his fatherless children.
13 Kí a gé àrọ́mọdọ́mọ rẹ̀ kúrò kí orúkọ wọn kí ó parẹ́ ní ìran tí ń bọ̀.
Let his posterity be cut off; in the generation following let their 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.
Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with 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.
Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them 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 that he remembered not to shew mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy man, and the broken in heart, to slay [them].
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.
Yea, he loved cursing, and it came unto him; and he delighted not in blessing, and it was far from him.
18 Bí ó ti fi ègún wọ ará rẹ̀ láṣọ bí ẹ̀wù bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ó wá sí inú rẹ̀ bí omi.
He clothed himself also with cursing as with his garment, and it came into his inward parts like water, and like oil into his bones. Let it be unto him as the raiment
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.
wherewith he covereth himself, and for the girdle wherewith 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 reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of them that speak evil 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 deal thou with me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name’s sake: because thy mercy is good, deliver thou 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 wounded within me.
23 Èmi ń kọjá lọ bí òjìji tí àṣálẹ́, mo ń gbọ̀n sókè bí eṣú.
I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down as the locust.
24 Eékún mi di aláìlera nítorí àwẹ̀ gbígbà ẹran-ara mi sì gbẹ nítorí àìlera mi.
My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness.
25 Mo dàbí ẹ̀gàn fún àwọn olùfisùn mi; nígbà tí wọn wò mí, wọ́n gbọn orí wọn.
I am become also a reproach unto them: when they see me, they shake their head.
26 Ràn mí lọ́wọ́, Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi; gbà mí gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìṣeun ìfẹ́ rẹ.
Help me, O LORD my God; O save me according to thy mercy:
27 Jẹ́ kí wọn mọ̀ pé ọwọ́ rẹ ni èyí wí pé ìwọ, Olúwa, ni ó ṣe é.
That they may know that this is thy hand; [that] thou, 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.
Let them curse, but bless thou: when they arise, they shall be ashamed, 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 mine adversaries be clothed with dishonour, and let them cover themselves with their own shame as with a mantle.
30 Pẹ̀lú ẹnu mi èmi yóò máa yin Olúwa gidigidi ní àárín ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn èmi yóò máa yìn ín.
I will give great thanks unto the LORD with my mouth; yea, I will praise him among the multitude.
31 Nítorí ó dúró ní apá ọ̀tún aláìní láti gbà á lọ́wọ́ àwọn tí ń dá ọkàn rẹ̀ lẹ́bi.
For he shall stand at the right hand of the needy, to save him from them that judge his soul.
