Psalms 147
1 Ẹ fi ìyìn fún Olúwa. Nítorí ohun rere ni láti máa kọrin ìyìn sí Ọlọ́run wa, ó yẹ láti kọrin ìyìn sí i!
Praise Yahweh, for it is good to sing praises to our God, it is pleasant, and praise is suitable.
2 Olúwa kọ́ Jerusalẹmu; Ó kó àwọn Israẹli tí a lé sọnù jọ.
Yahweh rebuilds Jerusalem, he gathers together the scattered people of Israel.
3 Ó wo àwọn tí ọkàn wọ́n bàjẹ́ sàn ó sì di ọgbẹ́ wọ́n.
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
4 Ó ka iye àwọn ìràwọ̀ ó sì pe ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan wọn ní orúkọ.
He counts the stars, he gives names to all of them.
5 Títóbi ni Olúwa wa ó sì pọ̀ ní agbára òye rẹ̀ kò sì ní òpin.
Great is our Lord and awesome in power, his understanding cannot be measured.
6 Olúwa wa pẹ̀lú àwọn onírẹ̀lẹ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó rẹ̀ àwọn ènìyàn búburú sílẹ̀.
Yahweh lifts up the oppressed, he brings the wicked down to the ground.
7 Fi ọpẹ́ kọrin sí Olúwa fi ohun èlò orin olókùn yin Ọlọ́run.
Sing to Yahweh with thanksgiving, sing praises to our God with a harp.
8 Ó fi ìkùùkuu bo àwọ̀ sánmọ̀ ó rọ òjò sí orílẹ̀ ayé ó mú kí koríko hù lórí àwọn òkè
He covers the heavens with clouds and prepares rain for the earth, making the grass to grow on the mountains.
9 Ó pèsè oúnjẹ fún àwọn ẹranko àti fún àwọn ọmọ ẹyẹ ìwò ní ìgbà tí wọ́n bá ń ké.
He gives food to the animals and to the young ravens when they cry.
10 Òun kò ní inú dídùn nínú agbára ẹṣin, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Òun kò ní ayọ̀ sí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ọkùnrin
He finds no delight in the strength of a horse, he takes no pleasure in the strong legs of a man.
11 Olúwa ni ayọ̀ nínú àwọn tí ó bẹ̀rù rẹ̀, sí àwọn tí ó ní ìrètí nínú àánú rẹ̀.
Yahweh takes pleasure in those who honor him, who hope in his covenant faithfulness.
12 Yin Olúwa, ìwọ Jerusalẹmu; yin Ọlọ́run rẹ, ìwọ Sioni.
Praise Yahweh, Jerusalem, praise your God, Zion.
13 Nítorí tí ó ti mú ọ̀pá ìdábùú ibodè rẹ̀ lágbára, Òun sì ti bùkún fún àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ nínú rẹ
For he strengthens the bars of your gates, he blesses your children among you.
14 Òun jẹ́ kí àlàáfíà wà ní àwọn ẹnu ibodè rẹ̀, òun sì fi jéró dáradára tẹ́ ọ lọ́rùn.
He brings prosperity inside your borders, he satisfies you with the finest of wheat.
15 Òun sì rán àṣẹ rẹ̀ sí ayé ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ sáré tete.
He sends out his commandment to earth, his command runs very swiftly.
16 Ó fi yìnyín fún ni bi irun àgùntàn ó sì fọ́n ìrì dídì ká bí eérú
He makes the snow like wool, he scatters the frost like ashes.
17 Ó rọ òjò yìnyín rẹ̀ bí òkúta wẹ́wẹ́ ta ni ó lè dúró níwájú òtútù rẹ̀
He dispenses the hail like crumbs, who can withstand the cold he sends?
18 Ó rán ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ jáde ó sì mú wọn yọ̀ ó mú kí afẹ́fẹ́ rẹ̀ fẹ́ ó sì mú odò rẹ̀ sàn.
He sends out his command and melts them, he makes the wind to blow and the water to flow.
19 Ó sọ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ di mí mọ̀ fún Jakọbu àwọn òfin àti ìlànà rẹ̀ fún Israẹli.
He proclaimed his word to Jacob, his statutes and his righteous decrees to Israel.
20 Òun kó tí ṣe irú èyí sí orílẹ̀-èdè kan rí, bí ó ṣe ti ìdájọ́ rẹ̀ wọn ko mọ òfin rẹ̀. Ẹ fi ìyìn fún Olúwa.
He has not done so with any other nation, and as for his decrees, they do not know them. Praise Yahweh.
