Psalms 19

1 Fún adarí orin. Saamu ti Dafidi. Àwọn ọ̀run ń sọ nípa ti ògo Ọlọ́run; àwọsánmọ̀ ń sọ nípa ti iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ rẹ̀.

TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. The heavens [are] recounting the glory of God, And the expanse [is] declaring the work of His hands.

2 Wọ́n ń fọhùn ní ọjọ́ dé ọjọ́; wọ́n ń fi ìmọ̀ hàn ní alẹ́ dé alẹ́.

Day to day utters speech, And night to night shows knowledge.

3 Kò sí ohùn tàbí èdè níbi tí a kò gbé gbọ́ ìró wọn.

There is no speech, and there are no words. Their voice has not been heard.

4 Ohùn wọn jáde lọ sí gbogbo orílẹ̀ ayé, ọ̀rọ̀ wọn títí dé òpin ilẹ̀ ayé. Ó ti kọ́ àgọ́ fún oòrùn nínú àwọn ọ̀run.

Their line has gone forth into all the earth, And their sayings to the end of the world, In them He placed a tent for the sun,

5 Tí ó dàbí ọkọ ìyàwó tí ó ń jáde ti yàrá rẹ̀ wá, òun yọ bí alágbára ọkùnrin tí ó ń sáré ìje.

And he, as a bridegroom, goes out from his covering, He rejoices as a mighty one To run the path.

6 Ìjáde lọ rẹ̀ ni láti òpin ọ̀run wá àti àyíká rẹ̀ sì dé ìpínlẹ̀ rẹ̀; kò sì sí ohun tí ó pamọ́ kúrò nínú oore rẹ̀.

From the end of the heavens [is] his going out, And his revolution [is] to their ends, And nothing is hid from his heat.

7 Pípé ni òfin Olúwa, ó ń yí ọkàn padà. Ẹ̀rí Olúwa dánilójú, ó sọ òpè di ọlọ́gbọ́n.

The law of YHWH [is] perfect, refreshing the soul, The testimonies of YHWH [are] steadfast, Making the simple wise,

8 Ìlànà Olúwa tọ̀nà, ó ń fi ayọ̀ fún ọkàn. Àṣẹ Olúwa ni mímọ́, ó ń fi ìmọ́lẹ̀ fún ojú.

The precepts of YHWH [are] upright, Rejoicing the heart, The command of YHWH [is] pure, enlightening the eyes,

9 Ìbẹ̀rù Olúwa mọ́, ó ń faradà títí láéláé. Ìdájọ́ Olúwa dájú òdodo ni gbogbo wọn.

The fear of YHWH [is] clean, standing for all time, The judgments of YHWH [are] true, They have been righteous—together.

10 Wọn ṣọ̀wọ́n ju wúrà lọ, ju wúrà tí o dára jùlọ, wọ́n dùn ju oyin lọ, àti ju afárá oyin lọ.

They are more desirable than gold, Indeed, than much fine gold; and sweeter than honey, Even liquid honey of the comb.

11 Nípa wọn ni a ti ṣí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ létí; nípa pípa wọ́n mọ́, èrè púpọ̀ ń bẹ.

Also—Your servant is warned by them, “In keeping them [is] a great reward.”

12 Ta ni ó lè mọ àṣìṣe rẹ̀? Dáríjì mí nínú àṣìṣe mi tí ó pamọ́.

[His] errors—who understands? Declare me innocent from hidden ones,

13 Wẹ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ mọ́ kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àmọ̀ọ́n-mọ̀-dá; má ṣe jẹ kí wọn kí ó jẹ ọba lórí mi. Nígbà náà ní èmi yóò dúró ṣinṣin, èmi yóò sì ṣe aláìlẹ́bi kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ńlá.

Also—keep back Your servant from presumptuous ones, Do not let them rule over me, Then I am perfect, And declared innocent of much transgression.

14 Jẹ́ kí ọ̀rọ̀ ẹnu mi àti àṣàrò ọkàn mi kí ó jẹ́ ìtẹ́wọ́gbà ní ojú rẹ, Ìwọ Olúwa àpáta mi, àti Olùdáǹdè mi.

Let the sayings of my mouth, And the meditation of my heart, Be for a pleasing thing before You, O YHWH, my rock, and my redeemer!
