< Psalms 25 >
1 Ti Dafidi. Olúwa, ìwọ ni mo gbé ọkàn mi sókè sí.
BY DAVID. [ALEPH-BET] To You, O YHWH, I lift up my soul.
2 Ọlọ́run, èmi gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ọ; má ṣe jẹ́ kí ojú ó tì mí má ṣe jẹ́ kí àwọn ọ̀tá mi ó yọ̀ mí.
My God, in You I have trusted, Do not let me be ashamed, Do not let my enemies exult over me.
3 Ẹni tí ó dúró tì ọ́ ojú kì yóò tì í, àwọn tí ń ṣẹ̀ láìnídìí ni kí ojú kí ó tì.
Also let none waiting on You be ashamed, Let the treacherous dealers without cause be ashamed.
4 Fi ọ̀nà rẹ hàn mí, Olúwa, kọ mi ní ipa tìrẹ;
Your ways, O YHWH, cause me to know, You teach me Your paths.
5 ṣe amọ̀nà mi nínú òtítọ́ ọ̀ rẹ, kí o sì kọ́ mi, nítorí ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run ìgbàlà mi; ìwọ ni mo dúró tì ní gbogbo ọjọ́.
Cause me to tread in Your truth, and teach me, For You [are] the God of my salvation, Near You I have waited all the day.
6 Rántí, Olúwa àánú àti ìfẹ́ ẹ̀ rẹ̀ ńlá, torí pé wọ́n ti wà ní ìgbà àtijọ́.
Remember Your mercies, O YHWH, And Your kindnesses, for they [are] from the age.
7 Má ṣe rántí àwọn ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ìgbà èwe mi tàbí ìrékọjá mi; gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ìfẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀ rántí mi nítorí tí ìwọ dára, Ìwọ! Olúwa.
Sins of my youth, and my transgressions, Do not remember. According to Your kindness be mindful of me, For Your goodness’ sake, O YHWH.
8 Rere àti ẹni ìdúró ṣinṣin ní Olúwa: nítorí náà, ó kọ́ àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ ni ọ̀nà náà.
Good and upright [is] YHWH, Therefore He directs sinners in the way.
9 Ó ṣe amọ̀nà àwọn onírẹ̀lẹ̀ ni ohun tí ó dára, ó sì kọ́ àwọn onírẹ̀lẹ̀ ní ọ̀nà rẹ̀.
He causes the humble to tread in judgment, And teaches the humble His way.
10 Gbogbo ipa ọ̀nà Olúwa ni ìfẹ́ àti òdodo tí ó dúró ṣinṣin, fún àwọn tí ó pa májẹ̀mú àti ẹ̀rí rẹ̀ mọ́.
All the paths of YHWH [are] kindness and truth, To those keeping His covenant, And His testimonies.
11 Nítorí orúkọ rẹ, Olúwa, dárí ẹ̀bi ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi jì mí, nítorí tí ó tóbi.
For Your Name’s sake, O YHWH, You have pardoned my iniquity, for it [is] great.
12 Àwọn wo ni ó bẹ̀rù Olúwa? Yóò kọ́ wọn ní ọ̀nà èyí tí wọn yóò yàn.
Who [is] this—the man fearing YHWH? He directs him in the way He chooses.
13 Wọn yóò lo ọjọ́ wọn nínú àlàáfíà, àwọn ọmọ wọn yóò sì gba ilẹ̀ náà.
His soul remains in good, And his seed possesses the land.
14 Olúwa fi ọkàn tán, àwọn tí o bẹ̀rù u rẹ̀; ó sọ májẹ̀mú rẹ̀ di mí mọ̀ fún wọn.
The secret of YHWH [is] for those fearing Him, And His covenant—to cause them to know.
15 Ojú mi gbé sókè sọ́dọ̀ Olúwa, nítorí pé yóò yọ ẹsẹ̀ mi kúrò nínú àwọ̀n náà.
My eyes [are] continually to YHWH, For He brings my feet out from a net.
16 Yípadà sí mi, kí o sì ṣe oore fún mi; nítorí pé mo nìkan wà, mo sì di olùpọ́njú.
Turn to me, and favor me, For I [am] lonely and afflicted.
17 Tì mí lẹ́yìn kúrò nínú ìpọ́njú àyà mi; kí o sì fà mí yọ kúrò nínú ìpọ́njú mi.
The distresses of my heart have enlarged themselves, Bring me out from my distresses.
18 Kíyèsi ìjìyà àti wàhálà mi, kí o sì dárí gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi jì.
See my affliction and my misery, And bear with all my sins.
19 Kíyèsi ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àwọn ọ̀tá mi, tí wọn kórìíra mi pẹ̀lú ìwà ìkà wọn.
See my enemies, for they have been many, And they have hated me with violent hatred.
20 Pa ọkàn mi mọ́, kí o sì gbà mí sílẹ̀; má ṣe jẹ́ kí a fi mí sínú ìtìjú, nítorí pé ìwọ ni ibi ìsádi mi.
Keep my soul, and deliver me, Do not let me be ashamed, for I trusted in You.
21 Jẹ́ kí òtítọ́ inú àti ìdúró ṣinṣin kí ó pa mí mọ́; nítorí pé mo dúró tì ọ́.
Integrity and uprightness keep me, For I have waited [on] You.
22 Ra Israẹli padà, Ìwọ Ọlọ́run, nínú gbogbo ìṣòro rẹ̀!
Redeem Israel, O God, from all his distresses!
