Psalms 116
1 Èmi fẹ́ràn Olúwa, nítorí ó gbọ́ ohùn mi; ó gbọ́ ẹkún mi fún àánú.
I have loved, because YHWH hears My voice, my supplication,
2 Nítorí ó yí etí rẹ̀ padà sí mi, èmi yóò máa pè é ni wọ́n ìgbà tí mo wà láààyè.
Because He has inclined His ear to me, And during my days I call.
Cords of death have surrounded me, And straits of Sheol have found me, I find distress and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)
4 Nígbà náà ni mo ké pe orúkọ Olúwa: “Olúwa, èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, gba ọkàn mi!”
And in the Name of YHWH I call: Ah, now, O YHWH, deliver my soul,
5 Olúwa ní oore-ọ̀fẹ́, ó sì ní òdodo; Ọlọ́run wa kún fún àánú.
YHWH [is] gracious, and righteous, Indeed, our God [is] merciful,
6 Olúwa pa àwọn ọlọ́kàn fífúyẹ́ mọ́ nígbà tí mo wà nínú àìní ńlá, ó gbà mí.
YHWH [is] a preserver of the simple, I was low, and He gives salvation to me.
7 Padà, ìwọ ọkàn mi, sí ibi ìsinmi rẹ, nítorí Olúwa ṣe dáradára sí ọ.
Return, O my soul, to your rest, For YHWH has conferred benefits on you.
8 Nítorí ìwọ, Olúwa, ti gba ọkàn mi kúrò lọ́wọ́ ikú, ojú mi kúrò lọ́wọ́ omijé, àti ẹsẹ̀ mi kúrò lọ́wọ́ ìṣubú,
For You have delivered my soul from death, My eyes from tears, my feet from overthrowing.
9 nítorí èmi yóò máa rìn níwájú Olúwa ní ilẹ̀ alààyè.
I habitually walk before YHWH In the lands of the living.
10 Èmi gbàgbọ́; nítorí náà mo wí pé, “èmi rí ìpọ́njú púpọ̀”.
I have believed, for I speak, I have been greatly afflicted.
11 Àti nínú ìdààmú mi mo wí pé, “Èké ni gbogbo ènìyàn”.
I said in my haste, “Every man [is] a liar.”
12 Kí ni èmi yóò san fún Olúwa nítorí gbogbo rere rẹ̀ sí mi?
What do I return to YHWH? All His benefits [are] on me.
13 Èmi yóò gbé ago ìgbàlà sókè èmi yóò sì máa ké pe orúkọ Olúwa.
I lift up the cup of salvation, And in the Name of YHWH I call.
14 Èmi yóò mú ìlérí mi ṣẹ sí Olúwa ní ojú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
Let me complete my vows to YHWH, Now, before all His people.
15 Iyebíye ní ojú Olúwa àti ikú àwọn ẹni mímọ́ rẹ̀.
Precious in the eyes of YHWH [is] the death of His saints.
16 Olúwa, nítòótọ́ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ni mo jẹ́; èmi ni ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, ọmọ ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ; ó ti tú mi sílẹ̀ nínú ìdè mi.
Ah, now, O YHWH, for I [am] Your servant; I [am] Your servant, son of Your handmaid; You have opened my bonds.
17 Èmi yóò rú ẹbọ ọpẹ́ sí ọ èmi yóò sì ké pe orúkọ Olúwa.
I sacrifice a sacrifice of thanks to You, And in the Name of YHWH I call.
18 Èmi yóò mú ìlérí mi sẹ sí Olúwa ní ojú gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀,
Let me complete my vows to YHWH, Now, before all His people,
19 nínú àgbàlá ilé Olúwa ní àárín rẹ̀, ìwọ Jerusalẹmu. Ẹ yin Olúwa.
In the courts of the house of YHWH, In your midst, O Jerusalem, praise YAH!
