Psalms 138

1 Ti Dafidi. Èmi yóò yìn ọ́ tinútinú mi gbogbo; níwájú àwọn òrìṣà ni èmi ó kọrin ìyìn sí ọ.

Of David. I will give you praise with all my heart: I will make melody to you before the gods.

2 Èmi ó máa gbàdúrà sí ìhà tẹmpili mímọ́ rẹ̀ èmi ó sì máa yin orúkọ rẹ nítorí ìṣeun ìfẹ́ rẹ àti òtítọ́ rẹ; nítorí ìwọ gbé ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ ga ju orúkọ rẹ lọ.

I will give worship before your holy Temple, praising your name for your mercy and for your unchanging faith: for you have made your word greater than all your name.

3 Ní ọjọ́ tí mo ké pè é ọ́, ìwọ dá mi lóhùn, ìwọ sì fi ipa mú mi lára le ní ọkàn mi.

When my cry came to your ears you gave me an answer, and made me great with strength in my soul.

4 Gbogbo àwọn ọba ayé yóò yìn ọ́, Olúwa, ní ìgbà tí wọn bá gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ ẹnu rẹ.

All the kings of the earth will give you praise, O Lord, when the words of your mouth come to their ears.

5 Nítòótọ́, wọn ó máa kọrin ní ipa ọ̀nà Olúwa; nítorí pé ńlá ni ògo Olúwa.

They will make songs about the ways of the Lord; for great is the glory of the Lord.

6 Bí Olúwa tilẹ̀ ga, síbẹ̀ ó júbà àwọn onírẹ̀lẹ̀; ṣùgbọ́n agbéraga ni ó mọ̀ ní òkèrè réré.

Though the Lord is high, he sees those who are low; and he has knowledge from far off of those who are lifted up.

7 Bí èmi tilẹ̀ ń rìn nínú ìpọ́njú ìwọ ni yóò sọ mi di ààyè; ìwọ ó na ọwọ́ rẹ sí àwọn ọ̀tá mi, ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ yóò sì gbà mí.

Even when trouble is round me, you will give me life; your hand will be stretched out against the wrath of my haters, and your right hand will be my salvation.

8 Olúwa yóò ṣe ohun tí ń ṣe tèmi láṣepé; Olúwa, àánú rẹ dúró láéláé; má ṣe kọ iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ ara rẹ sílẹ̀.

The Lord will make all things complete for me: O Lord, your mercy is eternal; do not give up the works of your hands.
