Psalms 138

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

A psalm of David. I will give you thanks 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 covenant faithfulness and for your trustworthiness. You have made your word and your name more important than anything else.

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

On the day that I called you, you answered me; you made me bold and strengthened 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, Yahweh, for they will hear the words from your mouth.

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

Indeed, they will sing of the deeds of Yahweh, for great is the glory of Yahweh.

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

For though Yahweh is high, yet he cares for the lowly, but the proud he knows from far off.

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 middle of danger, you will preserve my life; you will reach out with your hand against the anger of my enemies, and 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.

Yahweh is with me to the end; your covenant faithfulness, Yahweh, endures forever. Do not forsake the ones whom your hands have made.
