Psalms 41
1 Fún adarí orin. Saamu Dafidi. Ìbùkún ni fún ẹni tí ó ń ro ti aláìní: Olúwa yóò gbà á ní ìgbà ìpọ́njú.
To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. Blessed is he that iudgeth wisely of the poore: the Lord shall deliuer him in ye time of trouble.
2 Olúwa yóò dáàbò bò ó yóò sì pa ọkàn rẹ̀ mọ́: yóò bùkún fún un ní orí ilẹ̀ kò sì ní fi sílẹ̀ fún ìfẹ́ àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀.
The Lord will keepe him, and preserue him aliue: he shalbe blessed vpon the earth, and thou wilt not deliuer him vnto the will of his enemies.
3 Olúwa yóò gbà á lórí àkéte àìsàn rẹ̀ yóò sì mú un padà bọ̀ sípò kúrò nínú àìsàn rẹ̀.
The Lord wil strengthen him vpon ye bed of sorow: thou hast turned al his bed in his sicknes.
4 Ní ti èmi, mo wí pé “Olúwa, ṣàánú fún mi; wò mí sàn, nítorí pé mo ti ṣẹ̀ sí ọ”.
Therefore I saide, Lord haue mercie vpon me: heale my soule, for I haue sinned against thee.
5 Àwọn ọ̀tá mi ń sọ̀rọ̀ mi nínú àrankàn, pé, “Nígbà wo ni yóò kú, ti orúkọ rẹ̀ yóò sì run?”
Mine enemies speake euill of me, saying, When shall he die, and his name perish?
6 Nígbàkígbà tí ẹnìkan bá wá wò mí, wọn ń sọ̀rọ̀ ẹ̀tàn, nígbà tí àyà rẹ̀ bá kó ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ jọ sí ara rẹ̀; nígbà tí ó bá jáde lọ yóò sì máa tàn án kálẹ̀.
And if hee come to see mee, hee speaketh lies, but his heart heapeth iniquitie within him, and when he commeth foorth, he telleth it.
7 Àwọn ọ̀tá mi gbìmọ̀ papọ̀ nípa mi; èmi ni wọ́n ń gbìmọ̀ ibi sí,
All they that hate me, whisper together against me: euen against me do they imagine mine hurt.
8 wọ́n wí pé, “Ohun búburú ni ó dì mọ́ ọn ṣinṣin àti ní ibi tí ó dùbúlẹ̀ sí, kì yóò dìde mọ́.”
A mischiefe is light vpon him, and he that lyeth, shall no more rise.
9 Pàápàá, ọ̀rẹ́ mi tímọ́tímọ́, ẹni tí mo gbẹ́kẹ̀lé, ẹni tí ó ń jẹ nínú oúnjẹ mi, tí gbé gìgísẹ̀ rẹ̀ sókè sí mi.
Yea, my familiar friend, whom I trusted, which did eate of my bread, hath lifted vp the heele against me.
10 Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ Olúwa, ṣàánú fún mi; gbé mi sókè, kí ń ba lè san fún wọn.
Therefore, O Lord, haue mercy vpon mee, and raise me vp: so I shall reward them.
11 Èmi mọ̀ pé inú rẹ̀ dùn sí mi, nítorí ọ̀tá mi kò borí mi.
By this I know that thou fauourest me, because mine enemie doth not triumph against me.
12 Bí ó ṣe tèmi ni ìwọ dì mímú nínú ìwà òtítọ́ mi ìwọ sì gbé mi kalẹ̀ níwájú rẹ títí láé.
And as for me, thou vpholdest me in mine integritie, and doest set me before thy face for euer.
13 Olùbùkún ni Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli, láé àti láéláé.
Blessed be the Lord God of Israel worlde without ende. So be it, euen so be it.
