Psalms 2
1 Èéṣe tí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè fi ń dìtẹ̀, àti tí àwọn ènìyàn ń ṣe rìkíṣí asán?
Why have nations assembled tumultuously? And peoples meditate vanity?
2 Àwọn ọba ayé péjọpọ̀ àti àwọn ìjòyè gbìmọ̀ pọ̀ sí Olúwa àti sí ẹni àmì òróró rẹ̀.
Kings of the earth station themselves, and princes have been united together, against YHWH, and against His Messiah:
3 Wọ́n sọ pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí a fa ẹ̀wọ̀n wọn já, kí a sì ju ṣẹ́kẹ́ṣẹkẹ̀ wọn nù.”
“Let us draw off Their cords, And cast Their thick bands from us.”
4 Ẹni tí ó gúnwà lórí ìtẹ́ lọ́run rẹ́rìn-ín; Olúwa fi wọ́n rẹ́rìn-ín ẹlẹ́yà.
He who is sitting in the heavens laughs, The Lord mocks at them.
5 Nígbà náà ni yóò bá wọn wí ní ìbínú rẹ̀ yóò sì dẹ́rùbà wọ́n ní ìrunú rẹ̀, ó wí pé,
Then He speaks to them in His anger, and in His wrath He troubles them:
6 “Èmi ti fi ọba mi sí ipò lórí Sioni, òkè mímọ́ mi.”
“And I have anointed My King, On Zion—My holy hill.”
7 Èmi yóò sì kéde ìpinnu Olúwa: Ó sọ fún mi pé, “Ìwọ ni ọmọ mi; lónìí, èmi ti di baba rẹ.
I declare concerning a statute: YHWH said to me, “You [are] My Son, today I have brought You forth.
8 Béèrè lọ́wọ́ mi, Èmi yóò jẹ́ kí orílẹ̀-èdè di ìní rẹ, òpin ilé ayé yóò sì jẹ́ ogún rẹ.
Ask of Me and I give nations [as] Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth [for] Your possession.
9 Ìwọ yóò fi ọ̀pá irin ṣe àkóso wọn ìwọ yóò sì rún wọn wómúwómú bí ìkòkò amọ̀.”
You rule them with a scepter of iron, You crush them as a vessel of a potter.”
10 Nítorí náà, ẹ̀yin ọba, ẹ jẹ́ ọlọ́gbọ́n; ẹ gbọ́ ìkìlọ̀ ẹ̀yin alákòóso ayé.
And now, O kings, act wisely, Be instructed, O judges of earth,
11 Ẹ sin Olúwa pẹ̀lú ìbẹ̀rù ẹ sì máa yọ̀ pẹ̀lú ìwárìrì.
Serve YHWH with fear, And rejoice with trembling.
12 Fi ẹnu ko ọmọ náà ní ẹnu, kí ó má ba à bínú, kí ó má ba à pa yín run ní ọ̀nà yín, nítorí ìbínú rẹ̀ lè ru sókè ní ẹ̀ẹ̀kan. Ìbùkún ni fún gbogbo àwọn tí ó fi í ṣe ibi ìsádi wọn.
Kiss the Chosen One [[or Son]], lest He is angry, And you perish [from] the way, When His anger burns but a little, O the blessedness of all trusting in Him!
