Psalms 45
1 Fún adarí orin. Tí ohun orin “Lílì.” Ti orin àwọn ọmọ Kora. Maskili. Orin ìgbéyàwó. Ọkàn mi mọ ọ̀rọ̀ rere gẹ́gẹ́ bí mo ṣe ń sọ ohun tí mo ti ṣe fún ọba ahọ́n mi ni kálámù ayára kọ̀wé.
For the end, for alternate [strains] by the sons of Core; for instruction, a Song concerning the beloved. My heart has uttered a good matter: I declare my works to the king: my tongue is the pen of a quick writer.
2 Ìwọ yanjú ju àwọn ọmọ ènìyàn lọ: a da oore-ọ̀fẹ́ sí ọ ní ètè: nítorí náà ni Ọlọ́run ṣe bùkún fún ọ láéláé.
Thou art more beautiful than the sons of men: grace has been shed forth on thy lips: therefore God has blessed thee for ever.
3 Gba idà rẹ mọ́ ìhà rẹ, ìwọ alágbára jùlọ wọ ara rẹ ní ògo àti ọláńlá.
Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O Mighty One, in thy comeliness, and in thy beauty;
4 Nínú ọláńlá rẹ, máa gẹṣin lọ ní àlàáfíà lórí òtítọ́, ìwà tútù àti òtítọ́; jẹ́ kí ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ ṣe ohun ẹ̀rù.
and bend [thy bow], and prosper, and reign, because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall guide thee wonderfully.
5 Jẹ́ kí ọfà mímú rẹ̀ dá ọkàn àwọn ọ̀tá ọba lu jẹ́ kí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè ṣubú sí abẹ́ ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀.
Thy weapons are sharpened, Mighty One, (the nations shall fall under thee) [they are] in the heart of the king's enemies.
6 Ọlọ́run láé, àti láéláé ni ìtẹ́ rẹ, ọ̀pá aládé ìjọba rẹ, ọ̀pá aládé òtítọ́ ni.
Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a sceptre of righteousness.
7 Ìwọ fẹ́ olódodo, ìwọ sì kórìíra ìwà búburú nígbà náà Ọlọ́run, Ọlọ́run rẹ ti yàn ọ́ ṣe olórí àwọn ẹlẹgbẹ́ rẹ, nípa fífi àmì òróró ayọ̀ kùn ọ́.
Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity: therefore God, thy God, has anointed thee with the oil of gladness beyond thy fellows.
8 Gbogbo aṣọ rẹ̀ ni ó ń rùn pẹ̀lú òjìá àti aloe àti kasia; láti inú ààfin tí a fi eyín erin ṣe orin olókùn tẹ́ẹ́rẹ́ mú inú rẹ̀ dùn.
Myrrh, and stacte, and cassia [are exhaled] from thy garments, [and] out of the ivory palaces,
9 Àwọn ọmọbìnrin àwọn ọba wà nínú àwọn àyànfẹ́ rẹ̀, ní ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ̀ ni ayaba náà gbé dúró nínú wúrà Ofiri.
with which kings' daughters have gladdened thee for thine honour: the queen stood by on thy right hand, clothed in vesture wrought with gold, [and] arrayed in divers colours.
10 Gbọ́ ìwọ ọmọbìnrin, ronú kí o sì dẹtí rẹ sí mi gbàgbé àwọn ènìyàn rẹ àti ilé baba rẹ.
Hear, O daughter, and see, and incline thine ear; forget also thy people, and thy father's house.
11 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba yóò fẹ́ ẹwà rẹ gidigidi nítorí òun ni olúwa rẹ kí ìwọ sì máa tẹríba fún un.
Because the king has desired thy beauty; for he is thy Lord.
12 Ọmọbìnrin ọba Tire yóò wá pẹ̀lú ẹ̀bùn àwọn ọkùnrin ọlọ́rọ̀ yóò máa wá ojúrere rẹ̀.
And the daughter of Tyre shall adore him with gifts; the rich of the people of the land shall supplicate thy favour.
13 Gbogbo ògo ni ti ọmọbìnrin ọba ní àárín ilé rẹ̀, iṣẹ́ wúrà ọnà abẹ́rẹ́ ní aṣọ rẹ̀.
All her glory [is that] of the daughter of the king of Esebon, robed [as she is] in golden fringed garments,
14 Nínú aṣọ olówó iyebíye ni a mú un tọ́ ọba wá, àwọn wúńdíá ẹgbẹ́ rẹ̀ tẹ̀lé e, wọ́n sí mú un tọ̀ ọ́ wá.
in embroidered [clothing]: virgins shall be brought to the king after her: her fellows shall be brought to thee.
15 Wọ́n sì mú un wá pẹ̀lú ayọ̀ àti inú dídùn wọ́n sì wọ ààfin ọba.
They shall be brought with gladness and exultation: they shall be led into the king's temple.
16 Ọmọ rẹ̀ ni yóò gba ipò baba rẹ̀ ìwọ yóò sì fi wọ́n joyè lórí ilẹ̀ gbogbo.
Instead of thy fathers children are born to thee: thou shalt make them princes over all the earth.
17 Èmí yóò máa rántí orúkọ rẹ̀ ní ìran gbogbo, nígbà náà ni orílẹ̀-èdè yóò yìn ọ́ láé àti láéláé.
They shall make mention of thy name from generation to generation: therefore shall the nations give thanks to thee for ever, even for ever and ever.
