< Psalms 115 >

1 Kì í ṣe fún wa, Olúwa kì í ṣe fún wa, ṣùgbọ́n fún orúkọ rẹ ni a fi ògo fún, fún àánú àti òtítọ́ rẹ.
Not unto us, O Jehovah, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy loving-kindness and for thy truth's sake.
2 Torí kí ni àwọn kèfèrí yóò ṣe sọ pé, níbo ni Ọlọ́run wa wà.
Wherefore should the nations say, Where then is their God?
3 Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run wa wà lọ́run: tí ó ń ṣe èyí tí ó wù ú.
But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he pleased.
4 Fàdákà òun wúrà ni èrè àwọn aláìkọlà, iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ ènìyàn ni.
Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands:
5 Wọ́n ní ẹnu, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò le sọ̀rọ̀, wọ́n ní ojú, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò fi ríran.
They have a mouth, and they speak not; eyes have they, and they see not;
6 Wọ́n ní etí, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò fi gbọ́rọ̀: wọ́n ní imú, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò fi gbóòórùn.
They have ears, and they hear not; a nose have they, and they smell not;
7 Wọ́n ní ọwọ́, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò lò ó, wọ́n ní ẹsẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò rìn; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn kò sọ̀rọ̀ nínú òfin wọn.
They have hands, and they handle not; feet have they, and they walk not; they give no sound through their throat.
8 Àwọn tí ń ṣe wọ́n dàbí wọn; gẹ́gẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni olúkúlùkù ẹni tí ó gbẹ́kẹ̀ rẹ̀ lé wọn.
They that make them are like unto them, — every one that confideth in them.
9 Ìwọ Israẹli gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa: òun ni ìrànwọ́ àti ààbò wọn
O Israel, confide thou in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
10 Ẹ̀ yin ilé Aaroni, gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa: òun ni ìrànwọ́ àti ààbò wọn.
House of Aaron, confide in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
11 Ẹ̀ yin tí ó bẹ̀rù Olúwa, gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa: òun ní ìrànwọ́ àti ààbò wọn.
Ye that fear Jehovah, confide in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
12 Olúwa tí ń ṣe ìrántí wa; yóò bùkún ilé Israẹli; yóò bùkún ilé Aaroni.
Jehovah hath been mindful of us: he will bless, he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron;
13 Ìbùkún ni fún àwọn tí ó bẹ̀rù Olúwa, àti kékeré àti ńlá.
He will bless them that fear Jehovah, both the small and the great.
14 Olúwa yóò mú ọ pọ̀ sí i síwájú àti síwájú, ìwọ àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀.
Jehovah will add unto you more, unto you and unto your children.
15 Ẹ fi ìbùkún fún Olúwa ẹni tí ó dá ọ̀run òun ayé.
Ye are blessed of Jehovah, who made the heavens and the earth.
16 Ọ̀run àní ọ̀run ni ti Olúwa: ṣùgbọ́n ayé ló fi fún ọmọ ènìyàn.
The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah, but the earth hath he given to the children of men.
17 Òkú kò lè yìn Olúwa, tàbí ẹni tí ó ti lọ sí ìsàlẹ̀ ìdákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́.
The dead praise not Jah, neither any that go down into silence;
18 Ṣùgbọ́n àwa ó fi ìbùkún fún Olúwa láti ìsinsin yìí lọ àti títí láéláé. Ẹ yin Olúwa.
But we will bless Jah from this time forth and for evermore. Hallelujah!
