1 Ẹ fi ọpẹ́ fún Olúwa, nítorí tí ó dára; àánú rẹ̀ dúró láéláé.
Alleluia. Confess to the Lord, for he is good, for his mercy is forever.
2 Jẹ́ kí Israẹli wí pé: “Àánú rẹ̀ dúró láéláé”.
Let Israel now say: For he is good, for his mercy is forever.
3 Jẹ́ kí ilé Aaroni wí pé: “Àánú rẹ̀ dúró láéláé”.
Let the house of Aaron now say: For his mercy is forever.
4 Jẹ́ kí àwọn tí ó bẹ̀rù Olúwa wí pé: “Àánú rẹ̀ dúró láéláé.”
Let those who fear the Lord now say: For his mercy is forever.
5 Nínú ìrora mi, mo sọkún sí Olúwa, ó sì dá mi lóhùn nípa pé ó tú mi sílẹ̀.
In my tribulation, I called upon the Lord. And the Lord heeded me with generosity.
6 Olúwa ń bẹ fún èmi; èmi kì yóò bẹ̀rù. Kí ni ènìyàn lè ṣe sí mi?
The Lord is my helper. I will not fear what man can do to me.
7 Olúwa ń bẹ fún mi; òun ni olùrànlọ́wọ́ mi. Nítorí náà ni èmi ó ṣe rí ìṣẹ́gun mi lórí àwọn tí ó kórìíra mi.
The Lord is my helper. And I will look down upon my enemies.
8 Ó dára láti máa gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa ju àti gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ènìyàn lọ.
It is good to trust in the Lord, rather than to trust in man.
9 Ó dára láti máa gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa ju à ti gbẹ́kẹ̀lé àwọn ọmọ-aládé lọ.
It is good to hope in the Lord, rather than to hope in leaders.
10 Gbogbo àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè yí mi káàkiri, ṣùgbọ́n ní orúkọ Olúwa èmi gé wọn kúrò.
All the nations have surrounded me. And, in the name of the Lord, I have been avenged over them.
11 Wọ́n yí mi káàkiri ní gbogbo ẹ̀gbẹ́, ṣùgbọ́n ní orúkọ Olúwa èmi gé wọn dànù.
Surrounding me, they closed in on me. And, in the name of the Lord, I have been avenged over them.
12 Wọ́n gbá yìn ìn yí mi ká bí oyin, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n kú kíákíá bí iná ẹ̀gún; ní orúkọ Olúwa èmi ké wọn dànù.
They surrounded me like a swarm, and they burned like fire among the thorns. And, in the name of the Lord, I have been avenged over them.
13 Ìwọ tì mí gidigidi kí n lè ṣubú, ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa ràn mí lọ́wọ́.
Having been pushed, I was overturned so as to fall. But the Lord took me up.
14 Olúwa ni agbára àti orin mi; ó sì di ìgbàlà mi.
The Lord is my strength and my praise. And he has become my salvation.
15 Ohùn ayọ̀ àti ìgbàlà ń bẹ nínú àgọ́ àwọn olódodo: “Ọwọ́ ọ̀tún Olúwa ń ṣe ohun agbára!
A voice of exultation and salvation is in the tabernacles of the just.
16 Ọwọ́ ọ̀tún Olúwa ní a gbéga; ọwọ́ ọ̀tún Olúwa ń ṣe ohun agbára!”
The right hand of the Lord has wrought virtue. The right hand of the Lord has exalted me. The right hand of the Lord has wrought virtue.
17 Èmi kì yóò kú, ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò yè, èmi yóò pòkìkí ohun tí Olúwa ṣe.
I will not die, but I will live. And I will declare the works of the Lord.
18 Olúwa bá mi wí gidigidi, ṣùgbọ́n òun kò fi mí lé ikú lọ́wọ́.
When chastising, the Lord chastised me. But he has not delivered me over to death.
19 Ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn ẹnu-ọ̀nà òdodo fún mi: èmi yóò bá ibẹ̀ wọlé, èmi yóò sì fi ọpẹ́ fún Olúwa.
Open the gates of justice to me. I will enter them, and I will confess to the Lord.
20 Èyí ni ìlẹ̀kùn Olúwa ibẹ̀ ni àwọn olódodo yóò bá wọlé.
This is the gate of the Lord. The just will enter by it.
21 Èmi yóò fi ọpẹ́ fún ọ, nítorí ó dá mi lóhùn; ìwọ sì di ìgbàlà mi.
I will confess to you because you have heard me. And you have become my salvation.
22 Òkúta tí àwọn ọ̀mọ̀lé kọ̀sílẹ̀, ni ó di pàtàkì igun ilé;
The stone which the builders have rejected, this has become the head of the corner.
23 Olúwa ti ṣe èyí, ó ṣe ìyanu ní ojú wa.
By the Lord has this been done, and it is a wonder before our eyes.
24 Èyí ni ọjọ́ tí Olúwa dá: ẹ jẹ́ kí ayọ̀ kí inú wa sì máa dùn nínú rẹ̀.
This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us exult and rejoice in it.
25 Olúwa, gbà wá; Olúwa, fún wa ní àlàáfíà.
O Lord, grant salvation to me. O Lord, grant good prosperity.
26 Ìbùkún ni ẹni tí ń bọ̀ wá ní orúkọ Olúwa. Àwa ti fi ìbùkún fún ọ láti ilé Olúwa wá.
Blessed is he who arrives in the name of the Lord. We have blessed you from the house of the Lord.
27 Olúwa ni Ọlọ́run, ó ti mú ìmọ́lẹ̀ rẹ̀ tàn sí wa lára pẹ̀lú ẹ̀ka igi ní ọwọ́, ó dára pọ̀ mọ́ ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn tí ń wọ́ nínú ayọ̀ ẹ fi okùn di ẹbọ náà mọ́ ìwo pẹpẹ.
The Lord is God, and he has enlightened us. Establish a solemn day amid a dense crowd, even to the horn of the altar.
28 Ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run mi, èmi yóò máa fi ọpẹ́ fún ọ; ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run mi, èmi yóò gbé ọ ga.
You are my God, and I will confess to you. You are my God, and I will exalt you. I will confess to you, for you have heeded me. And you have become my salvation.
29 Ẹ fi ọpẹ́ fún Olúwa, nítorí tí ó ṣeun; nítorí tí àánú rẹ̀ dúró láéláé.
Confess to the Lord, for he is good, for his mercy is forever.
