Psalms 2
1 Èéṣe tí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè fi ń dìtẹ̀, àti tí àwọn ènìyàn ń ṣe rìkíṣí asán?
Why are the nations in turmoil, and why do the peoples make plots that will fail?
2 Àwọn ọba ayé péjọpọ̀ àti àwọn ìjòyè gbìmọ̀ pọ̀ sí Olúwa àti sí ẹni àmì òróró rẹ̀.
The kings of the earth take their stand together and the rulers conspire together against Yahweh and against his Messiah, saying,
3 Wọ́n sọ pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí a fa ẹ̀wọ̀n wọn já, kí a sì ju ṣẹ́kẹ́ṣẹkẹ̀ wọn nù.”
“Let us tear off the shackles they put on us and throw off their chains.”
4 Ẹni tí ó gúnwà lórí ìtẹ́ lọ́run rẹ́rìn-ín; Olúwa fi wọ́n rẹ́rìn-ín ẹlẹ́yà.
He who sits in the heavens will sneer at them; the Lord mocks them.
5 Nígbà náà ni yóò bá wọn wí ní ìbínú rẹ̀ yóò sì dẹ́rùbà wọ́n ní ìrunú rẹ̀, ó wí pé,
Then he will speak to them in his anger and terrify them in his rage, saying,
6 “Èmi ti fi ọba mi sí ipò lórí Sioni, òkè mímọ́ mi.”
“I myself have anointed my king on Zion, my holy mountain.”
7 Èmi yóò sì kéde ìpinnu Olúwa: Ó sọ fún mi pé, “Ìwọ ni ọmọ mi; lónìí, èmi ti di baba rẹ.
I will announce a decree of Yahweh. He said to me, “You are my son! This day I have become your father.
8 Béèrè lọ́wọ́ mi, Èmi yóò jẹ́ kí orílẹ̀-èdè di ìní rẹ, òpin ilé ayé yóò sì jẹ́ ogún rẹ.
Ask me, and I will give you the nations for your inheritance and the farthermost regions 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 will break them with an iron rod; like a jar of a potter, you will smash them to pieces.”
10 Nítorí náà, ẹ̀yin ọba, ẹ jẹ́ ọlọ́gbọ́n; ẹ gbọ́ ìkìlọ̀ ẹ̀yin alákòóso ayé.
So now, you kings, be warned; be corrected, you rulers of the earth.
11 Ẹ sin Olúwa pẹ̀lú ìbẹ̀rù ẹ sì máa yọ̀ pẹ̀lú ìwárìrì.
Worship Yahweh in 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 son or he will be angry with you, and you will die in the way when his anger burns for just a moment. How blessed are all those who seek refuge in him.
