Psalms 138

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

[By David.] I will give you thanks, Jehovah, with my whole heart. Before the gods I will sing praises to you.

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 bow down toward your holy temple, and give thanks to your Name for your loving kindness and for your truth; for you have exalted your Name and your word above all.

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

In the day that I called, you answered me. You encouraged me 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 thanks, Jehovah, for they have heard the words of your mouth.

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

Yes, they will sing of the ways of Jehovah; for great is Jehovah's glory.

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

For though Jehovah is high, yet he looks after the lowly; but the proud, he knows from afar.

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.

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch forth your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save me.

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

Jehovah will fulfill that which concerns me; your loving kindness, Jehovah, endures forever. Do not forsake the works of your own hands.
