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 ye Jah! For [it is] good to praise our God, For pleasant — comely [is] praise.
2 Olúwa kọ́ Jerusalẹmu; Ó kó àwọn Israẹli tí a lé sọnù jọ.
Building Jerusalem [is] Jehovah, The driven away of Israel He gathereth.
3 Ó wo àwọn tí ọkàn wọ́n bàjẹ́ sàn ó sì di ọgbẹ́ wọ́n.
Who is giving healing to the broken of heart, And is binding up their griefs.
4 Ó ka iye àwọn ìràwọ̀ ó sì pe ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan wọn ní orúkọ.
Appointing the number of the stars, To all them He giveth names.
5 Títóbi ni Olúwa wa ó sì pọ̀ ní agbára òye rẹ̀ kò sì ní òpin.
Great [is] our Lord, and abundant in power, Of His understanding there is no narration.
6 Olúwa wa pẹ̀lú àwọn onírẹ̀lẹ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó rẹ̀ àwọn ènìyàn búburú sílẹ̀.
Jehovah is causing the meek to stand, Making low the wicked unto the earth.
7 Fi ọpẹ́ kọrin sí Olúwa fi ohun èlò orin olókùn yin Ọlọ́run.
Answer ye to Jehovah with thanksgiving, Sing ye 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
Who is covering the heavens with clouds, Who is preparing for the earth rain, Who is causing grass to spring up [on] mountains,
9 Ó pèsè oúnjẹ fún àwọn ẹranko àti fún àwọn ọmọ ẹyẹ ìwò ní ìgbà tí wọ́n bá ń ké.
Giving to the beast its food, To the young of the ravens that call.
10 Òun kò ní inú dídùn nínú agbára ẹṣin, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Òun kò ní ayọ̀ sí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ọkùnrin
Not in the might of the horse doth He delight, Not in the legs of a man is He pleased.
11 Olúwa ni ayọ̀ nínú àwọn tí ó bẹ̀rù rẹ̀, sí àwọn tí ó ní ìrètí nínú àánú rẹ̀.
Jehovah is pleased with those fearing Him, With those waiting for His kindness.
12 Yin Olúwa, ìwọ Jerusalẹmu; yin Ọlọ́run rẹ, ìwọ Sioni.
Glorify, O Jerusalem, Jehovah, Praise thy God, O Zion.
13 Nítorí tí ó ti mú ọ̀pá ìdábùú ibodè rẹ̀ lágbára, Òun sì ti bùkún fún àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ nínú rẹ
For He did strengthen the bars of thy gates, He hath blessed thy sons in thy midst.
14 Òun jẹ́ kí àlàáfíà wà ní àwọn ẹnu ibodè rẹ̀, òun sì fi jéró dáradára tẹ́ ọ lọ́rùn.
Who is making thy border peace, [With] the fat of wheat He satisfieth Thee.
15 Òun sì rán àṣẹ rẹ̀ sí ayé ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ sáré tete.
Who is sending forth His saying [on] earth, Very speedily doth His word run.
16 Ó fi yìnyín fún ni bi irun àgùntàn ó sì fọ́n ìrì dídì ká bí eérú
Who is giving snow like wool, Hoar-frost as ashes He scattereth.
17 Ó rọ òjò yìnyín rẹ̀ bí òkúta wẹ́wẹ́ ta ni ó lè dúró níwájú òtútù rẹ̀
Casting forth His ice like morsels, Before His cold who doth stand?
18 Ó rán ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ jáde ó sì mú wọn yọ̀ ó mú kí afẹ́fẹ́ rẹ̀ fẹ́ ó sì mú odò rẹ̀ sàn.
He sendeth forth His word and melteth them, He causeth His wind to blow — the waters flow.
19 Ó sọ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ di mí mọ̀ fún Jakọbu àwọn òfin àti ìlànà rẹ̀ fún Israẹli.
Declaring His words to Jacob, His statutes and His judgments 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 hath not done so to any nation, As to judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye Jah!
