< 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?
For the chief musician. A maschil of David; when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul, and said to him, “David has come to the house of Ahimelech.” Why are you proud of making trouble, you mighty man? The covenant faithfulness of God comes every day.
2 Ahọ́n rẹ̀ ń gbìmọ̀ ìparun; ó dàbí abẹ mímú, ìwọ ẹni tí ń hùwà ẹ̀tàn.
Your tongue plans destruction like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
3 Ìwọ fẹ́ràn ibi ju ìre lọ, àti èké ju kí ó sọ òtítọ́ lọ.
You love evil more than good and lying rather than speaking righteousness. (Selah)
4 Ìwọ fẹ́ràn ọ̀rọ̀ ìpanilára gbogbo, ìwọ ahọ́n ẹ̀tàn!
You love all words that devour others, you 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 will likewise destroy you forever; he will take you up and pluck you out of your tent and root you 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 will also see it and fear; they will laugh at him 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.”
“See, this is a man who did not make God his refuge, but he trusted in the abundance of his wealth, and he was strong when he destroyed 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 as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God's house; I will trust in the covenant faithfulness of God forever 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 give you thanks forever for what you have done. I will wait for your name, because it is good, in the presence of your godly people.
