Psalms 20

1 Fún adarí orin. Saamu ti Dafidi. Kí Olúwa kí ó gbóhùn rẹ ní ọjọ́ ìpọ́njú; kí orúkọ Ọlọ́run Jakọbu kí ó dáàbò bò ọ́.

[For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.] May Jehovah answer you in the day of trouble. May the name of the God of Jacob set you up on high.

2 Kí ó rán ìrànlọ́wọ́ sí ọ, láti ibi mímọ́ kí ó sì tì ọ́ lẹ́yìn láti Sioni wá.

He will send you help from the sanctuary, and give you support from Zion.

3 Kí ó sì rántí gbogbo ẹbọ rẹ kí ó sì gba ẹbọ sísun rẹ. (Sela)

He will remember all your offerings, and accept your burnt sacrifice. (Selah)

4 Kí ó fi fún ọ gẹ́gẹ́ bi ti èrò ọkàn rẹ kí ó sì mú gbogbo ìmọ̀ rẹ ṣẹ.

He will grant you your heart's desire, and fulfill all your plans.

5 Àwa yóò hó fún ayọ̀ nígbà tí o bá di aṣẹ́gun àwa yóò gbé àsíá wa sókè ní orúkọ Ọlọ́run wa. Kí Olúwa kí ó mú gbogbo ìbéèrè rẹ̀ ṣẹ.

We will triumph in your salvation. In the name of our God, we will set up our banners. May Jehovah grant all your requests.

6 Nísinsin yìí, èmi mọ̀ wí pé, Olúwa pa ẹni àmì òróró rẹ̀ mọ́. Yóò gbọ́ láti ọ̀run mímọ́ rẹ̀ wá pẹ̀lú agbára ìgbàlà ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ̀.

Now I know that Jehovah saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with a mighty act of deliverance by his right hand.

7 Àwọn mìíràn gbẹ́kẹ̀ wọn lé kẹ̀kẹ́, àwọn mìíràn gbẹ́kẹ̀ wọn lé ẹṣin, ṣùgbọ́n àwa gbẹ́kẹ̀lé orúkọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa.

Some [trust] in chariots, and some in horses, but we trust the name of Jehovah our God.

8 Wọ́n wólẹ̀, ní eékún, wọ́n sì ṣubú, ṣùgbọ́n àwa dìde, a sì dúró ṣinṣin.

They are bowed down and fallen, but we rise up, and stand upright.

9 Olúwa, fi ìṣẹ́gun fún ọba! Dá wa lóhùn nígbà tí a bá ń kígbe pè!

Save, Jehovah. Let the King answer us when we call.
