< 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.
My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready 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 fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath 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 most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty.
4 Nínú ọláńlá rẹ, máa gẹṣin lọ ní àlàáfíà lórí òtítọ́, ìwà tútù àti òtítọ́; jẹ́ kí ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ ṣe ohun ẹ̀rù.
And in thy majesty ride triumphantly because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall shew thee dreadful things.
5 Jẹ́ kí ọfà mímú rẹ̀ dá ọkàn àwọn ọ̀tá ọba lu jẹ́ kí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè ṣubú sí abẹ́ ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀.
Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies; whereby the people fall under thee.
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 right sceptre.
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 lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above 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.
All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.
9 Àwọn ọmọbìnrin àwọn ọba wà nínú àwọn àyànfẹ́ rẹ̀, ní ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ̀ ni ayaba náà gbé dúró nínú wúrà Ofiri.
Kings’ daughters were among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
10 Gbọ́ ìwọ ọmọbìnrin, ronú kí o sì dẹtí rẹ sí mi gbàgbé àwọn ènìyàn rẹ àti ilé baba rẹ.
Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own 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.
So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him.
12 Ọmọbìnrin ọba Tire yóò wá pẹ̀lú ẹ̀bùn àwọn ọkùnrin ọlọ́rọ̀ yóò máa wá ojúrere rẹ̀.
And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour.
13 Gbogbo ògo ni ti ọmọbìnrin ọba ní àárín ilé rẹ̀, iṣẹ́ wúrà ọnà abẹ́rẹ́ ní aṣọ rẹ̀.
The king’s daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold.
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.
She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.
15 Wọ́n sì mú un wá pẹ̀lú ayọ̀ àti inú dídùn wọ́n sì wọ ààfin ọba.
With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king’s palace.
16 Ọmọ rẹ̀ ni yóò gba ipò baba rẹ̀ ìwọ yóò sì fi wọ́n joyè lórí ilẹ̀ gbogbo.
Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest make princes in all the earth.
17 Èmí yóò máa rántí orúkọ rẹ̀ ní ìran gbogbo, nígbà náà ni orílẹ̀-èdè yóò yìn ọ́ láé àti láéláé.
I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.
