Psalms 5
1 Fún adarí orin. Fún ohun èlò orin fífọn. Saamu ti Dafidi. Fi etí sí ọ̀rọ̀ mi, Olúwa, kíyèsi àròyé mi.
To the chief music-maker on wind instruments. A Psalm. Of David. Give ear to my words, O Lord; give thought to my heart-searchings.
2 Fi etí sílẹ̀ sí igbe mi fún ìrànlọ́wọ́, ọba mi àti Ọlọ́run mi, nítorí ìwọ ni mo gba àdúrà sí.
Let the voice of my cry come to you, my King and my God; for to you will I make my prayer.
3 Ní òwúrọ̀, Olúwa, ìwọ yóò gbọ́ ohùn mi; ní òwúrọ̀, èmi yóò gbé ẹ̀bẹ̀ mi sí iwájú rẹ̀ èmi yóò sì dúró ní ìrètí.
My voice will come to you in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I send my prayer to you, and keep watch.
4 Nítorí ìwọ kì í ṣe Ọlọ́run tí ó ní inú dídùn sí búburú; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹni ibi kò le è bá ọ gbé.
For you are not a God who takes pleasure in wrongdoing; there is no evil with you.
5 Àwọn agbéraga kò le è dúró níwájú rẹ̀. Ìwọ kórìíra gbogbo àwọn aṣebi;
The sons of pride have no place before you; you are a hater of all workers of evil.
6 ìwọ yóò pa àwọn tí ń ṣe èké run. Apani àti ẹni ẹ̀tàn ènìyàn ni Olúwa yóò kórìíra.
You will send destruction on those whose words are false; the cruel man and the man of deceit are hated by the Lord.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi, nípa títóbi àánú rẹ̀, èmi yóò wá sínú ilé rẹ̀; ní tọ̀wọ̀tọ̀wọ̀ ni èmi yóò tẹríba sí ìhà tẹmpili mímọ́ rẹ̀.
But as for me, I will come into your house, in the full measure of your mercy; and in your fear I will give worship, turning my eyes to your holy Temple.
8 Tọ́ mi, Olúwa, nínú òdodo rẹ, nítorí àwọn ọ̀tá mi, mú ọ̀nà rẹ tọ́ níwájú mi.
Be my guide, O Lord, in the ways of your righteousness, because of those who are against me; make your way straight before my face.
9 Kò sí ọ̀rọ̀ kan ní ẹnu wọn tí a lè gbàgbọ́; ọkàn wọn kún fún ìparun. Ọ̀nà ọ̀fun wọn ni isà òkú tí ó ṣí sílẹ̀; pẹ̀lú ahọ́n wọn ni wọ́n ń sọ ẹ̀tàn.
For no faith may be put in their words; their inner part is nothing but evil; their throat is like an open place for the dead; smooth are the words of their tongues.
10 Dá wọn lẹ́bi Ọlọ́run! Jẹ́ kí rìkíṣí wọn jẹ́ ìṣubú wọn. Lé wọn jáde nítorí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn, nítorí wọ́n ti ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí ọ.
Send them to destruction, O Lord; let their evil designs be the cause of their fall; let them be forced out by all their sins; because they have gone against your authority.
11 Ṣùgbọ́n, jẹ́ kí gbogbo àwọn tí ó sádi ọ́ kí ó yọ̀; jẹ kí wọn máa kọrin fún ayọ̀ títí. Tan ààbò rẹ sórí wọn, àti àwọn tí ó fẹ́ràn orúkọ rẹ yóò máa yọ̀ nínú rẹ.
But let all those who put their faith in you be glad with cries of joy at all times, and let all the lovers of your name be glad in you.
12 Dájúdájú, Olúwa, ìwọ bùkún olódodo; ìwọ fi ojúrere rẹ yí wọn ká bí asà.
For you, Lord, will send a blessing on the upright man; your grace will be round him, and you will be his strength.
