< Psalms 51 >
1 Fún adarí orin. Saamu ti Dafidi. Nígbà ti wòlíì Natani tọ wá, lẹ́yìn tí Dafidi dá ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àgbèrè rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú Batṣeba. Ṣàánú fún mi, Ọlọ́run, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìdúró ṣinṣin ìfẹ́ rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀pọ̀ àánú rẹ̀ kí o sì pa gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi rẹ́.
Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy loving kindness. According to the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2 Wẹ gbogbo àìṣedéédéé mi nù kúrò kí o sì wẹ̀ mi mọ́ kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi!
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3 Nítorí mo mọ̀ gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi, nígbà gbogbo ni ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi wà níwájú mi.
For I know my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me.
4 Sí ọ, ìwọ nìkan ṣoṣo, ni mo dẹ́ṣẹ̀ sí ni mo sì ṣe búburú níwájú rẹ̀, kí a lè dá ọ láre nígbà tí ìwọ bá ń sọ̀rọ̀, kí o sì le wà láìlẹ́bi, nígbà tí ìwọ bá ń ṣe ìdájọ́.
Against thee, thee only, I have sinned, and done that which is evil in thy sight, that thou may be justified when thou speak, and may prevail when thou are criticized.
5 Nítòótọ́, nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ni a ti bí mi, nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ni ìyá mí sì lóyún mi.
Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin my mother conceived me.
6 Nítòótọ́ ìwọ fẹ́ òtítọ́ ní inú; ìwọ kọ́ mi ní ọgbọ́n ní ìhà ìkọ̀kọ̀.
Behold, thou desire truth in the inward parts, and in the hidden part thou will make me to know wisdom.
7 Wẹ̀ mí pẹ̀lú ewé hísópù, èmi yóò sì mọ́; fọ̀ mí, èmi yóò sì funfun ju yìnyín lọ.
Purify me with hyssop, and I shall be clean. Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8 Jẹ́ kí n gbọ́ ayọ̀ àti inú dídùn; jẹ́ kí gbogbo egungun tí ìwọ ti run kí ó máa yọ̀.
Make me to hear joy and gladness, that the bones which thou have broken may rejoice.
9 Pa ojú rẹ̀ mọ́ kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi kí o sì pa gbogbo àwọn àìṣedéédéé mi rẹ́.
Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities.
10 Dá ọkàn mímọ́ sí inú mi, Ọlọ́run, kí o sì tún ẹ̀mí dídúró ṣinṣin ṣe sínú mi.
Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.
11 Má ṣe jù mi nù kúrò níwájú rẹ, kí o má ṣe gba Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ rẹ lọ́wọ́ mi.
Cast me not away from thy presence, and take not thy holy Spirit from me.
12 Mú ayọ̀ ìgbàlà rẹ tọ̀ mí wá, kí o sì fún mi ní ẹ̀mí ìfẹ́, tí yóò mú mi dúró.
Restore to me the joy of thy salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit.
13 Nígbà náà ni èmi yóò máa kọ́ àwọn olùrékọjá ní ọ̀nà rẹ, àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ yóò sì yí padà sí ọ.
Then I will teach transgressors thy ways, and sinners shall be converted to thee.
14 Gbà mí kúrò lọ́wọ́ ẹ̀bi ẹ̀jẹ̀, Ọlọ́run, ìwọ Ọlọ́run ìgbàlà mi, ahọ́n mi yóò sì máa kọrin òdodo rẹ kíkan.
Deliver me from blood guiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation. And my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
15 Olúwa, ṣí mi ní ètè mi gbogbo, àti ẹnu mi yóò sì máa kéde ìyìn rẹ.
O Lord, open thou my lips, and my mouth shall show forth thy praise.
16 Nítorí ìwọ kò ní inú dídùn sí ẹbọ, tí èmi kò bá mú wá; Ìwọ kò ní inú dídùn sí ọrẹ ẹbọ sísun.
For thou delight not in sacrifice, else I would give it. Thou have no pleasure in burnt offering.
17 Ẹbọ Ọlọ́run ni ìròbìnújẹ́ ọkàn ìròbìnújẹ́ àti ìrora àyà.
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit. A broken and contrite heart, O God, thou will not despise.
18 Ṣe rere ní dídùn inú rẹ sí Sioni, ṣe rere; tún odi Jerusalẹmu mọ.
Do good in thy good pleasure to Zion. Build thou the walls of Jerusalem.
19 Nígbà náà ni inú rẹ yóò dùn sí ẹbọ òdodo, pẹ̀lú ọrẹ ẹbọ sísun àti ọ̀tọ̀ọ̀tọ̀ ọrẹ ẹbọ sísun, nígbà náà ni wọn yóò fi akọ màlúù rú ẹbọ lórí pẹpẹ rẹ.
Then thou will delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, in burnt offering and in whole burnt offering. Then they will offer bullocks upon thine altar.
