Psalms 146

1 Ẹ fi ìyìn fún Olúwa. Fi ìyìn fún Olúwa, ìwọ ọkàn mi.

Let the Lord be praised. Give praise to the Lord, O my soul.

2 Èmi yóò yin Olúwa ní gbogbo ayé mi, èmi yóò kọrin ìyìn sí Ọlọ́run, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí mo bá wà láààyè.

While I have breath I will give praise to the Lord: I will make melody to my God while I have my being.

3 Ẹ má ṣe ní ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé nínú àwọn ọmọ-aládé, àní, ọmọ ènìyàn, lọ́wọ́ ẹni tí kò sí ìrànlọ́wọ́.

Put not your faith in rulers, or in the son of man, in whom there is no salvation.

4 Ẹ̀mí rẹ jáde lọ, ó padà sí erùpẹ̀, ní ọjọ́ náà gan, èrò wọn yóò di òfo.

Man's breath goes out, he is turned back again to dust; in that day all his purposes come to an end.

5 Ìbùkún ni fún ẹni tí Ọlọ́run Jakọbu ń ṣe ìrànlọ́wọ́ rẹ̀ tí ìrètí rẹ̀ wà nínú Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀.

Happy is the man who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God:

6 Ẹni tí ó dá ọ̀run àti ayé, òkun àti ohun gbogbo tí ń bẹ nínú wọn, ẹni tí ó pa òtítọ́ mọ́ títí ayé.

Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all things in them; who keeps faith for ever:

7 Ẹni tí ń ṣe ìdájọ́ àwọn tí a ni lára, tí ó fi oúnjẹ fún àwọn tí ebi ń pa, Olúwa, tú àwọn oǹdè sílẹ̀,

Who gives their rights to those who are crushed down; and gives food to those who are in need of it: the Lord makes the prisoners free;

8 Olúwa mú àwọn afọ́jú ríran, Olúwa, gbé àwọn tí a rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ ga, Olúwa fẹ́ràn àwọn olódodo.

The Lord makes open the eyes of the blind; the Lord is the lifter up of those who are bent down; the Lord is a lover of the upright;

9 Olúwa ń dá ààbò bo àwọn àlejò ó sì ń dá àwọn aláìní baba àti opó sí ṣùgbọ́n ó ba ọ̀nà àwọn ènìyàn búburú jẹ́.

The Lord takes care of those who are in a strange land; he gives help to the widow and to the child who has no father; but he sends destruction on the way of sinners.

10 Olúwa jẹ ọba títí láé; Ọlọ́run rẹ, ìwọ Sioni, àti fún gbogbo ìran. Ẹ fi ìyìn fún Olúwa.

The Lord will be King for ever; your God, O Zion, will be King through all generations. Praise be to the Lord.
