< 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 to us, Yahweh, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your loving kindness, and for your truth’s sake.
2 Torí kí ni àwọn kèfèrí yóò ṣe sọ pé, níbo ni Ọlọ́run wa wà.
Why should the nations say, “Where is their God, now?”
3 Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run wa wà lọ́run: tí ó ń ṣe èyí tí ó wù ú.
But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.
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 mouths, but they don’t speak. They have eyes, but they don’t see.
6 Wọ́n ní etí, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò fi gbọ́rọ̀: wọ́n ní imú, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò fi gbóòórùn.
They have ears, but they don’t hear. They have noses, but they don’t smell.
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, but they don’t feel. They have feet, but they don’t walk, neither do they speak through their throat.
8 Àwọn tí ń ṣe wọ́n dàbí wọn; gẹ́gẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni olúkúlùkù ẹni tí ó gbẹ́kẹ̀ rẹ̀ lé wọn.
Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.
9 Ìwọ Israẹli gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa: òun ni ìrànwọ́ àti ààbò wọn
Israel, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.
10 Ẹ̀ yin ilé Aaroni, gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa: òun ni ìrànwọ́ àti ààbò wọn.
House of Aaron, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.
11 Ẹ̀ yin tí ó bẹ̀rù Olúwa, gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa: òun ní ìrànwọ́ àti ààbò wọn.
You who fear Yahweh, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.
12 Olúwa tí ń ṣe ìrántí wa; yóò bùkún ilé Israẹli; yóò bùkún ilé Aaroni.
Yahweh remembers us. He will bless us. 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 those who fear Yahweh, both small and great.
14 Olúwa yóò mú ọ pọ̀ sí i síwájú àti síwájú, ìwọ àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀.
May Yahweh increase you more and more, you and your children.
15 Ẹ fi ìbùkún fún Olúwa ẹni tí ó dá ọ̀run òun ayé.
Blessed are you by Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.
16 Ọ̀run àní ọ̀run ni ti Olúwa: ṣùgbọ́n ayé ló fi fún ọmọ ènìyàn.
The heavens are Yahweh’s heavens, but he has given the earth to the children of men.
17 Òkú kò lè yìn Olúwa, tàbí ẹni tí ó ti lọ sí ìsàlẹ̀ ìdákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́.
The dead don’t praise Yah, nor any who 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 Yah, from this time forward and forever more. Praise Yah!
