Psalms 111

1 Ẹ máa yin Olúwa. Èmi yóò máa yin Olúwa pẹ̀lú gbogbo ọkàn mi, ní àwùjọ àwọn olóòtítọ́, àti ní ìjọ ènìyàn.

Alleluia. I will give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and [in] the congregation.

2 Iṣẹ́ Olúwa tóbi, àwọn tí ó ní inú dídùn, ń ṣe àṣàrò nínú rẹ̀.

The works of the Lord are great, sought out according to all his will.

3 Iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ni ọláńlá àti ògo: àti òdodo rẹ̀ dúró láéláé.

His work is [worthy of] thanksgiving and honour: and his righteousness endures for ever and ever.

4 Ó ti ṣe iṣẹ́ ìyanu rẹ̀, láti máa rántí: Olúwa ni olóore-ọ̀fẹ́ àti pé ó kún fún àánú.

He has caused his wonderful works to be remembered: the Lord is merciful and compassionate.

5 Ó ti fi oúnjẹ fún àwọn tí ó bẹ̀rù rẹ̀: òun ń rántí májẹ̀mú rẹ̀.

He has given food to them that fear him: he will remember his covenant for ever.

6 Ó ti fihan àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ agbára iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ láti fún wọn ní ilẹ̀ ìlérí ní ìní.

He has declared to his people the power of his works, to give them the inheritance of the heathen.

7 Iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ rẹ̀ jẹ́ òtítọ́ àti ìdájọ́; gbogbo òfin rẹ̀ sì dájú.

The works of his hands are truth and judgement: all his commandments are sure:

8 Wọ́n dúró láé àti láé, ní òtítọ́ àti òdodo ni a ṣe wọ́n.

established for ever and ever, done in truth and uprightness.

9 Ó rán ìràpadà sí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀: ó pàṣẹ májẹ̀mú rẹ̀ títí láé, mímọ́ àti ọ̀wọ̀ ni orúkọ rẹ̀.

He sent redemption to his people: he commanded his covenant for ever: holy and fearful is his name.

10 Ìbẹ̀rù Olúwa ni ìpilẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ọgbọ́n: òye dáradára ni yóò máa ṣe òfin rẹ̀, ìyìn rẹ̀ dúró láé.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and all that act accordingly have a good understanding; his praise endures for ever and ever.
