< Psalms 52 >
1 Fún adarí orin. Maskili ti Dafidi. Nígbà tí Doegi ará Edomu tọ Saulu lọ láti sọ fún pé, “Dafidi wà ní ilé Ahimeleki.” Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ń ṣe féfé nínú ìwà ìkà, ìwọ alágbára ọkùnrin? Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ń gbéraga nígbà gbogbo, ìwọ ẹni ẹ̀gàn níwájú Ọlọ́run?
To the chief Musician, Maschil, [A Psalm] of David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said unto him, David is come to the house of Ahimelech. Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God [endureth] continually.
2 Ahọ́n rẹ̀ ń gbìmọ̀ ìparun; ó dàbí abẹ mímú, ìwọ ẹni tí ń hùwà ẹ̀tàn.
Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
3 Ìwọ fẹ́ràn ibi ju ìre lọ, àti èké ju kí ó sọ òtítọ́ lọ.
Thou lovest evil more than good; [and] lying rather than to speak righteousness. (Selah)
4 Ìwọ fẹ́ràn ọ̀rọ̀ ìpanilára gbogbo, ìwọ ahọ́n ẹ̀tàn!
Thou lovest all devouring words, O [thou] deceitful tongue.
5 Ọlọ́run yóò sì lù ọ́ bolẹ̀ láéláé, yóò sì dì ọ́ mú, yóò sì já ọ kúrò ni ibùjókòó rẹ, yóò sì fà ọ́ tu kúrò lórí ilẹ̀ alààyè. (Sela)
God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of [thy] dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. (Selah)
6 Àwọn olódodo yóò rí, wọn yóò sì bẹ̀rù wọn yóò sì rẹ́rìn-ín rẹ̀, wí pé,
The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:
7 “Èyí ni ọkùnrin náà ti kò fi Ọlọ́run ṣe agbára rẹ̀, bí kò ṣe ni ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ọrọ̀ rẹ̀ ni ó gbẹ́kẹ̀lé, ó sì mu ara rẹ̀ le nínú ìwà búburú rẹ̀.”
Lo, [this is] the man [that] made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, [and] strengthened himself in his wickedness.
8 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi dàbí igi Olifi tí ó gbilẹ̀ nínú ilé Ọlọ́run; èmi gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ìfẹ́ Ọlọ́run tí kì í kùnà láé àti láéláé.
But I [am] like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.
9 Èmi yóò yìn ọ títí fún ohun tí ó ti ṣe; èmi ní ìrètí nínú orúkọ rẹ, nítorí orúkọ rẹ dára. Èmi yóò yìn ọ́ níwájú àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́.
I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done [it: ] and I will wait on thy name; for [it is] good before thy saints.
