< Psalms 25 >
1 Ti Dafidi. Olúwa, ìwọ ni mo gbé ọkàn mi sókè sí.
[By David.] To you, Jehovah, do 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, I have trusted in you. Do not let me be shamed. Do not let my enemies triumph 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.
Yes, no one who waits for you shall be shamed. They shall be shamed who deal treacherously without cause.
4 Fi ọ̀nà rẹ hàn mí, Olúwa, kọ mi ní ipa tìrẹ;
Show me your ways, Jehovah. 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.
Guide me in your truth, and teach me, For you are the God of my salvation, I wait for you all day long.
6 Rántí, Olúwa àánú àti ìfẹ́ ẹ̀ rẹ̀ ńlá, torí pé wọ́n ti wà ní ìgbà àtijọ́.
Jehovah, remember your tender mercies and your loving kindness, for they are from old times.
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.
Do not remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions. Remember me according to your loving kindness, for your goodness' sake, Jehovah.
8 Rere àti ẹni ìdúró ṣinṣin ní Olúwa: nítorí náà, ó kọ́ àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ ni ọ̀nà náà.
Good and upright is Jehovah, therefore he will instruct sinners in the way.
9 Ó ṣe amọ̀nà àwọn onírẹ̀lẹ̀ ni ohun tí ó dára, ó sì kọ́ àwọn onírẹ̀lẹ̀ ní ọ̀nà rẹ̀.
He will guide the humble in justice. He will teach 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 Jehovah are loving kindness and truth to those who keep 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, Jehovah, pardon my iniquity, for it is great.
12 Àwọn wo ni ó bẹ̀rù Olúwa? Yóò kọ́ wọn ní ọ̀nà èyí tí wọn yóò yàn.
What man is he who fears Jehovah? He shall instruct him in the way that he shall choose.
13 Wọn yóò lo ọjọ́ wọn nínú àlàáfíà, àwọn ọmọ wọn yóò sì gba ilẹ̀ náà.
His soul shall dwell in prosperity, and his descendants shall inherit the land.
14 Olúwa fi ọkàn tán, àwọn tí o bẹ̀rù u rẹ̀; ó sọ májẹ̀mú rẹ̀ di mí mọ̀ fún wọn.
The friendship of Jehovah is with those who fear him. He will show them his covenant.
15 Ojú mi gbé sókè sọ́dọ̀ Olúwa, nítorí pé yóò yọ ẹsẹ̀ mi kúrò nínú àwọ̀n náà.
My eyes are ever on Jehovah, for he will pluck my feet out of the 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 have mercy on me, for I am desolate and afflicted.
17 Tì mí lẹ́yìn kúrò nínú ìpọ́njú àyà mi; kí o sì fà mí yọ kúrò nínú ìpọ́njú mi.
Relieve me from the distresses of my heart, and bring me out of my distresses.
18 Kíyèsi ìjìyà àti wàhálà mi, kí o sì dárí gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi jì.
Consider my affliction and my travail. Forgive all my sins.
19 Kíyèsi ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àwọn ọ̀tá mi, tí wọn kórìíra mi pẹ̀lú ìwà ìkà wọn.
Consider my enemies, for they are many. They hate me with cruel 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.
Oh keep my soul, and deliver me. Let me not be disappointed, for I take refuge in you.
21 Jẹ́ kí òtítọ́ inú àti ìdúró ṣinṣin kí ó pa mí mọ́; nítorí pé mo dúró tì ọ́.
Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you, Jehovah.
22 Ra Israẹli padà, Ìwọ Ọlọ́run, nínú gbogbo ìṣòro rẹ̀!
Redeem Israel, God, from all of his troubles.
