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?
You people [think that you] are strong and brag about the sins that you have committed, while you plan to harm godly people.
2 Ahọ́n rẹ̀ ń gbìmọ̀ ìparun; ó dàbí abẹ mímú, ìwọ ẹni tí ń hùwà ẹ̀tàn.
All during the day you plan to get rid of [others]; what you say [MTY] [injures others] like a sharp razor [SIM], and you are [always] deceiving [others].
3 Ìwọ fẹ́ràn ibi ju ìre lọ, àti èké ju kí ó sọ òtítọ́ lọ.
You like [doing what is] evil more than you like doing what is good, and you like telling lies more than you like telling the truth.
4 Ìwọ fẹ́ràn ọ̀rọ̀ ìpanilára gbogbo, ìwọ ahọ́n ẹ̀tàn!
You who say things [MTY] to deceive people, you like to say (things that hurt people/cruel things)!
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)
But God will get rid of you forever; he will grab you and drag you from your home and take you away from this world where people are alive.
6 Àwọn olódodo yóò rí, wọn yóò sì bẹ̀rù wọn yóò sì rẹ́rìn-ín rẹ̀, wí pé,
When righteous [people] see that, they will be awestruck, and they will laugh at [what happened to] you, and say,
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.”
“Look [what happened to] the man who would not ask God to protect him; he trusted that his great wealth [would save him]; he trusted in the money that he got by wickedly taking it from others!”
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 [secure/safe because I worship] in God’s temple; I am like a [strong] green olive tree. I trust in God, who faithfully loves us forever.
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.
God, I will always thank you for the things that you have done. As I stand before godly [people], I will proclaim that you are good (OR, the many good [MTY] [things you have done for us]).
