< Psalms 50 >

1 Saamu ti Asafu. Olúwa, Ọlọ́run alágbára, sọ̀rọ̀ kí o sì pe ayé jọ láti ìlà-oòrùn títí dé ìwọ̀ rẹ̀.
A Psalm for Asaph. The God of gods, the Lord, has spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun to the going down [thereof].
2 Láti Sioni wá, pípé ni ẹwà, Ọlọ́run tí ń tan ìmọ́lẹ̀
Out of Sion [comes] the excellence of his beauty.
3 Ọlọ́run ń bọ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kì yóò dákẹ́, iná yóò máa jó níwájú rẹ̀, àti ní àyíká rẹ̀ ni ẹ̀fúùfù líle yóò ti máa jà ká.
God, our God, shall come manifestly, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall be kindled before him, and round about him there shall be a very great tempest.
4 Yóò sì pe àwọn ọ̀run láti òkè wá jọ àti ayé, kí o le máa ṣe ìdárò àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
He shall summon the heaven above, and the earth, that he may judge his people.
5 “Kó àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́ jọ fún mi àwọn tí wọn fi ẹbọ dá májẹ̀mú fún mi.”
Assemble you his saints to him, those that have engaged in a covenant with him upon sacrifices.
6 Àwọn ọ̀run yóò sì sọ̀rọ̀ òdodo rẹ̀, nítorí Ọlọ́run fúnra rẹ̀ ni onídàájọ́.
And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge. (Pause)
7 “Ẹ gbọ́, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn mi, èmi yóò si sọ̀rọ̀, ìwọ Israẹli, èmi yóò jẹ́rìí sí ọ: èmi ní Ọlọ́run, àní Ọlọ́run rẹ.
Hear, my people, and I will speak to you, O Israel: and I will testify to you: I am God, your God.
8 Èmi kí yóò bá ọ wí nítorí àwọn ìrúbọ rẹ, tàbí ọrẹ ẹbọ sísun rẹ, èyí tí ó wà níwájú mi ní ìgbà gbogbo.
I will not reprove you on account of your sacrifices; for your whole burnt offerings are before me continually.
9 Èmí kò fẹ́ kí ó mú akọ màlúù láti inú ilé tí o kọ́ fún un, tàbí kí o mú òbúkọ láti inú agbo ẹran rẹ̀
I will take no bullocks out of your house, nor he-goats out of your flocks.
10 nítorí gbogbo ẹran igbó ni tèmi àti ẹran ọ̀sìn lórí ẹgbẹ̀rún òkè.
For all the wild beasts of the thicket are mine, the cattle on the mountains, and oxen.
11 Èmi mọ gbogbo ẹyẹ ní orí àwọn òkè ńlá àti gbogbo ẹ̀dá alààyè tí ó wà ní orí ilẹ̀ ni tèmi.
I know all the birds of the sky; and the beauty of the field is mine.
12 Bí ebi tilẹ̀ ń pa mí, èmi kì yóò sọ fún ọ, nítorí ayé ni tèmi àti ohun gbogbo tí ó wa ní inú rẹ̀.
If I should be hungry, I will not tell you: for the world is mine, and the fullness of it.
13 Ǹjẹ́ èmi yóò ha jẹ ẹran akọ màlúù tàbí mú ẹ̀jẹ̀ òbúkọ?
Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
14 “Rú ẹbọ ọpẹ́ sí Ọlọ́run, kí o sì san ẹ̀jẹ́ rẹ fún Ọ̀gá-ògo.
Offer to God the sacrifice of praise; and pay your vows to the Most High.
15 Kí o sì pè mí ní ọjọ́ ìpọ́njú, èmi yóò gbà ọ́, ìwọ yóò sì bu ọlá fún mi.”
And call upon me in the day of affliction; and I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me. (Pause)
16 Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run sọ fún àwọn, ènìyàn búburú: “Kí ní ẹ̀tọ́ tí o ní tí ìwọ fi ń tún àwọn ìlànà mi sọ, tàbí tí ìwọ sì ń sọ májẹ̀mú mi ní ẹnu rẹ?
But to the sinner God has said, Why do you declare my ordinances, and take up my covenant in your mouth?
17 Ìwọ kórìíra àṣẹ mi, ìwọ sì ṣá ọ̀rọ̀ mí tì sí apá kan.
Whereas you have hated instruction, and have cast my words behind [you].
18 Nígbà tí ìwọ rí olè, ìwọ dára pọ̀ mọ́ ọn, ìwọ sì da ara rẹ dé àwọn alágbèrè.
If you saw a thief, you ran along with him, and have cast in your lot with adulterers.
19 Ìwọ lo ẹnu rẹ fún aburú, ìwọ sì ń fi ahọ́n rẹ pète ẹ̀tàn.
Your mouth has multiplied wickedness, and your tongue has framed deceit.
20 Ní ìgbà gbogbo ìwọ ń sọ̀rọ̀ sí arákùnrin rẹ, ìwọ sì ń ba orúkọ ọmọ ìyá rẹ jẹ́.
You did sit and speak against your brother, and did scandalize your mother's son.
21 Àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni ìwọ ti ṣe, mo sì dákẹ́; ìwọ rò pé mo jẹ́ irú kan náà bí ìrẹ, ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò bá ọ wí, èmi yóò sì fi ẹ̀sùn kàn ọ́ ní ojú ara rẹ.
These things you did, and I kept silence: you thought wickedly that I should be like you, [but] I will reprove you, and set [your offences] before you.
22 “Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ ro èyí wò, ẹ̀yin tí ó gbàgbé Ọlọ́run. Bí bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́ èmi yóò fa yin ya pẹ́rẹpẹ̀rẹ, láìsí ẹni tí yóò gbà yin sílẹ̀.
Now consider these things, you that forget God, lest he rend [you], and there is no deliverer.
23 Ẹni tí ó ba ní ẹbọ ọrẹ-ọpẹ́ bu ọlá fún mi; kí ó sì tún ọ̀nà rẹ̀ ṣe, kí èmi kí ó le fi ìgbàlà Ọlọ́run hàn án.”
The sacrifice of praise will glorify me: and that is the way wherein I will show to him the salvation of God.
