Psalms 118

1 Ẹ fi ọpẹ́ fún Olúwa, nítorí tí ó dára; àánú rẹ̀ dúró láéláé.

'O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.'

2 Jẹ́ kí Israẹli wí pé: “Àánú rẹ̀ dúró láéláé”.

So let Israel now say, for His mercy endureth for ever,

3 Jẹ́ kí ilé Aaroni wí pé: “Àánú rẹ̀ dúró láéláé”.

So let the house of Aaron now say, for His mercy endureth for ever.

4 Jẹ́ kí àwọn tí ó bẹ̀rù Olúwa wí pé: “Àánú rẹ̀ dúró láéláé.”

So let them now that fear the LORD say, for His mercy endureth for ever.

5 Nínú ìrora mi, mo sọkún sí Olúwa, ó sì dá mi lóhùn nípa pé ó tú mi sílẹ̀.

Out of my straits I called upon the LORD; He answered me with great enlargement.

6 Olúwa ń bẹ fún èmi; èmi kì yóò bẹ̀rù. Kí ni ènìyàn lè ṣe sí mi?

The LORD is for me; I will not fear; what can man do unto 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 for me as my helper; and I shall gaze upon them that hate me.

8 Ó dára láti máa gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa ju àti gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ènìyàn lọ.

It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man.

9 Ó dára láti máa gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa ju à ti gbẹ́kẹ̀lé àwọn ọmọ-aládé lọ.

It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes.

10 Gbogbo àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè yí mi káàkiri, ṣùgbọ́n ní orúkọ Olúwa èmi gé wọn kúrò.

All nations compass me about; verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.

11 Wọ́n yí mi káàkiri ní gbogbo ẹ̀gbẹ́, ṣùgbọ́n ní orúkọ Olúwa èmi gé wọn dànù.

They compass me about, yea, they compass me about; verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.

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 compass me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns; verily, in the name of the LORD I will cut them off.

13 Ìwọ tì mí gidigidi kí n lè ṣubú, ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa ràn mí lọ́wọ́.

Thou didst thrust sore at me that I might fall; but the LORD helped me.

14 Olúwa ni agbára àti orin mi; ó sì di ìgbàlà mi.

The LORD is my strength and song; and He is become my salvation.

15 Ohùn ayọ̀ àti ìgbàlà ń bẹ nínú àgọ́ àwọn olódodo: “Ọwọ́ ọ̀tún Olúwa ń ṣe ohun agbára!

The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.

16 Ọwọ́ ọ̀tún Olúwa ní a gbéga; ọwọ́ ọ̀tún Olúwa ń ṣe ohun agbára!”

The right hand of the LORD is exalted; the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.

17 Èmi kì yóò kú, ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò yè, èmi yóò pòkìkí ohun tí Olúwa ṣe.

I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.

18 Olúwa bá mi wí gidigidi, ṣùgbọ́n òun kò fi mí lé ikú lọ́wọ́.

The LORD hath chastened me sore; but He hath not given me over unto death.

19 Ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn ẹnu-ọ̀nà òdodo fún mi: èmi yóò bá ibẹ̀ wọlé, èmi yóò sì fi ọpẹ́ fún Olúwa.

Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto the LORD.

20 Èyí ni ìlẹ̀kùn Olúwa ibẹ̀ ni àwọn olódodo yóò bá wọlé.

This is the gate of the LORD; the righteous shall enter into it.

21 Èmi yóò fi ọpẹ́ fún ọ, nítorí ó dá mi lóhùn; ìwọ sì di ìgbàlà mi.

I will give thanks unto Thee, for Thou hast answered me, and art become my salvation.

22 Òkúta tí àwọn ọ̀mọ̀lé kọ̀sílẹ̀, ni ó di pàtàkì igun ilé;

The stone which the builders rejected is become the chief corner-stone.

23 Olúwa ti ṣe èyí, ó ṣe ìyanu ní ojú wa.

This is the LORD'S doing; it is marvellous in 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 which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

25 Olúwa, gbà wá; Olúwa, fún wa ní àlàáfíà.

We beseech Thee, O LORD, save now! We beseech Thee, O LORD, make us now to prosper!

26 Ìbùkún ni ẹni tí ń bọ̀ wá ní orúkọ Olúwa. Àwa ti fi ìbùkún fún ọ láti ilé Olúwa wá.

Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD; we bless you out of 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 hath given us light; order the festival procession with boughs, even unto the horns of the altar.

28 Ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run mi, èmi yóò máa fi ọpẹ́ fún ọ; ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run mi, èmi yóò gbé ọ ga.

Thou art my God, and I will give thanks unto Thee; Thou art my God, I will exalt Thee.

29 Ẹ fi ọpẹ́ fún Olúwa, nítorí tí ó ṣeun; nítorí tí àánú rẹ̀ dúró láéláé.

O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever.
