Psalms 31
1 Fún adarí orin. Saamu ti Dafidi. Nínú rẹ̀, Olúwa ni mo ti rí ààbò; má ṣe jẹ́ kí ojú kí ó tì mí; gbà mí nínú òdodo rẹ.
TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. In You, O YHWH, I have trusted, Do not let me be ashamed for all time, In Your righteousness deliver me.
2 Tẹ́ etí rẹ sí mi, gbà mí kíákíá; jẹ́ àpáta ààbò mi, jẹ́ odi alágbára láti gbà mí.
Incline Your ear to me quickly, deliver me, Be to me for a strong rock, For a house of bulwarks to save me.
3 Ìwọ pàápàá ni àpáta àti ààbò mi, nítorí orúkọ rẹ, máa ṣe olùtọ́ mi, kí o sì ṣe amọ̀nà mi.
For You [are] my rock and my bulwark, For Your Name’s sake lead me and tend me.
4 Yọ mí jáde kúrò nínú àwọ̀n tí wọ́n dẹ pamọ́ fún mi, nítorí ìwọ ni ìsádi mi.
Bring me out from the net that they hid for me, For You [are] my strength.
5 Ní ọwọ́ rẹ ni mo fi ẹ̀mí mi lé; ìwọ ni o ti rà mí padà, Olúwa, Ọlọ́run òtítọ́.
Into Your hand I commit my spirit, You have redeemed me, YHWH God of truth.
6 Èmi ti kórìíra àwọn ẹni tí ń fiyèsí òrìṣà tí kò níye lórí; ṣùgbọ́n èmi gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa.
I have hated the observers of lying vanities, And I have been confident toward YHWH.
7 Èmi yóò yọ̀, inú mi yóò dùn nínú ìfẹ́ ńlá rẹ, nítorí ìwọ ti rí ìbìnújẹ́ mi ìwọ ti mọ̀ ọkàn mi nínú ìpọ́njú.
I rejoice, and am glad in Your kindness, In that You have seen my affliction, You have known my soul in adversities.
8 Pẹ̀lú, ìwọ kò sì fà mi lé àwọn ọ̀tá lọ́wọ́ ìwọ ti fi ẹsẹ̀ mi lé ibi ààyè ńlá.
And You have not shut me up, Into the hand of an enemy, You have caused my feet to stand in a broad place.
9 Ṣàánú fún mi, ìwọ Olúwa, nítorí mo wà nínú ìpọ́njú; ojú mi fi ìbìnújẹ́ sùn, ọkàn àti ara mi pẹ̀lú.
Favor me, O YHWH, for distress [is] to me, My eye, my soul, and my body Have become old by provocation.
10 Èmi fi ìbànújẹ́ lo ọjọ́ mi àti àwọn ọdún mi pẹ̀lú ìmí ẹ̀dùn; agbára mi ti kùnà nítorí òsì mi, egungun mi sì ti rún dànù.
For my life has been consumed in sorrow And my years in sighing. My strength has been feeble because of my iniquity, And my bones have become old.
11 Èmi di ẹni ẹ̀gàn láàrín àwọn ọ̀tá mi gbogbo, pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú láàrín àwọn aládùúgbò mi, mo sì di ẹ̀rù fún àwọn ojúlùmọ̀ mi; àwọn tí ó rí mi ní òde ń yẹra fún mi.
I have been a reproach among all my adversaries, And to my neighbors exceedingly, And a fear to my acquaintances, Those seeing me without—fled from me.
12 Èmi ti di ẹni ìgbàgbé kúrò ní ọkàn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹni tí ó ti kú; èmi sì dàbí ohun èlò tí ó ti fọ́.
I have been forgotten as dead, out of mind, I have been as a perishing vessel.
13 Nítorí mo gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ ẹ̀gàn ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ìpayà tí ó yí mi ká; tí wọn gbìmọ̀ pọ̀ sí mi, wọ́n sì ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí mi láti gba ẹ̀mí mi.
For I have heard an evil account of many, Fear [is] all around. In their being united against me, They have devised to take my life,
14 Ṣùgbọ́n èmí gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ọ, ìwọ Olúwa; mo sọ wí pé, “Ìwọ ní Ọlọ́run mi.”
And I have trusted on You, O YHWH, I have said, “You [are] my God.”
15 Ìgbà mi ń bẹ ní ọwọ́ rẹ; gbà mí kúrò ní ọwọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá mi àti àwọn onínúnibíni.
In Your hand [are] my times, Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, And from my pursuers.
16 Jẹ́ kí ojú rẹ kí ó tan ìmọ́lẹ̀ sí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ lára; gbà mí nínú ìfẹ́ rẹ tí ó dúró ṣinṣin.
Cause Your face to shine on Your servant, Save me in Your kindness.
17 Má ṣe jẹ́ kí ojú ki ó tì mí, Olúwa; nítorí pé mo ké pè ọ́; jẹ́ kí ojú kí ó ti ènìyàn búburú; jẹ́ kí wọ́n lọ pẹ̀lú ìdààmú sí isà òkú. (Sheol h7585)
O YHWH, do not let me be ashamed, For I have called You, let the wicked be ashamed, Let them become silent to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
18 Jẹ́ kí àwọn ètè irọ́ kí ó dákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́, pẹ̀lú ìgbéraga àti ìkẹ́gàn, wọ́n sọ̀rọ̀ àfojúdi sí olódodo.
Let lips of falsehood become mute, That are speaking against the righteous, Ancient sayings, in pride and contempt.
19 Báwo ni títóbi oore rẹ̀ ti pọ̀ tó, èyí tí ìwọ ti ní ní ìpamọ́ fún àwọn tí ó bẹ̀rù rẹ, èyí tí ìwọ rọ̀jò rẹ̀ níwájú àwọn ènìyàn tí wọ́n fi ọ́ ṣe ibi ìsádi wọn.
How abundant is Your goodness, That You have laid up for those fearing You, You have worked for those trusting in You, Before sons of men.
20 Ní abẹ́ ìbòòji iwájú rẹ ni ìwọ pa wọ́n mọ́ sí kúrò nínú ìdìmọ̀lù àwọn ènìyàn; ní ibùgbé rẹ, o mú wọn kúrò nínú ewu kúrò nínú ìjà ahọ́n.
You hide them in the secret place of Your presence, From schemes of man, You conceal them in a dwelling place, From the strife of tongues.
21 Olùbùkún ni Olúwa, nítorí pé ó ti fi àgbà ìyanu ìfẹ́ tí ó ní sí mi hàn, nígbà tí mo wà ní ìlú tí wọ́n rọ̀gbà yíká.
Blessed [is] YHWH, For He has made His kindness marvelous To me in a city of bulwarks.
22 Èmí ti sọ nínú ìdágìrì mi, “A gé mi kúrò ní ojú rẹ!” Síbẹ̀ ìwọ ti gbọ́ ẹ̀bẹ̀ mi fún àánú nígbà tí mo ké pè ọ́ fún ìrànlọ́wọ́.
And I have said in my haste, “I have been cut off from before Your eyes,” But You have heard the voice of my supplications, In my crying to You.
23 Ẹ fẹ́ Olúwa, gbogbo ẹ̀yin ènìyàn rẹ̀ mímọ́! Olúwa pa olódodo mọ́, ó sì san án padà fún agbéraga ní ẹ̀kúnrẹ́rẹ́.
Love YHWH, all you His saints, YHWH is keeping the faithful, And repaying a proud doer abundantly.
24 Jẹ́ alágbára, yóò sì mú yín ní àyà le gbogbo ẹ̀yin tí ó dúró de Olúwa.
Be strong, and He strengthens your heart, All you who are waiting for YHWH!
