< Psalms 57 >
1 Fún adarí orin. Ní ohùn “Má ṣe parun.” Ti Dafidi. Miktamu. Nígbà tí ó sá níwájú Saulu lọ sínú ihò òkúta. Ṣàánú fún mi, Ọlọ́run, ṣàánú fún mi, nítorí nínú rẹ ni ààbò ọkàn mí wà. Èmi o fi ààbò mí sí ibi ìyẹ́ apá rẹ títí tí ewu yóò fi kọjá lọ.
[For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Do Not Destroy." A poem by David, when he fled from Saul, in the cave.] Be merciful to me, God, be merciful to me, for my soul takes refuge in you. Yes, in the shadow of your wings, I will take refuge, until disaster has passed.
2 Mo kígbe sókè sí Ọlọ́run Ọ̀gá-ògo jùlọ, sí Ọlọ́run tó ń pa májẹ̀mú rẹ̀ mọ́ fún mi.
I cry out to God Most High, to God who accomplishes my requests for me.
3 Òun yóò ránṣẹ́ láti ọ̀run wá, yóò sì gbà mí, bí ẹni tí ń fẹ́ gbé mi mì tilẹ̀ ń kẹ́gàn mi. Ọlọ́run yóò rán àánú rẹ̀ àti òdodo rẹ̀ jáde.
He will send from heaven, and save me, he rebukes the one who is pursuing me. (Selah) God will send out his loving kindness and his truth.
4 Mo wà ní àárín àwọn kìnnìún; mo dùbúlẹ̀ ni abẹ́ àwọn ẹ̀dá búburú, àwọn ènìyàn tí eyín wọn dàbí ọ̀kọ̀ àti ọfà ẹni tí ahọ́n rẹ̀ jẹ́ idà mímú.
My soul is among lions. I lie among those who are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
5 Kí a yìn ọ́ Ọlọ́run, ju ọ̀run lọ, kí ògo rẹ kò ju ti gbogbo ayé lọ.
Be exalted, God, above the heavens. Let your glory be above all the earth.
6 Wọ́n ti ta àwọ̀n sílẹ̀ fún ẹsẹ̀ mi: a tẹ orí ọkàn mi ba nínú ìtìjú, wọ́n gbẹ́ kòtò sí ọ̀nà mi: ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n ti jì síbẹ̀ fún ara wọn.
They have prepared a net for my steps. My soul is bowed down. They dig a pit before me. They fall into its midst themselves. (Selah)
7 Ọkàn mi ti múra Ọlọ́run; ọkàn mi ti múra, èmi ó kọrin, èmi ó si máa kọrin ìyìn.
My heart is steadfast, God, my heart is steadfast. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises.
8 Jí, ìwọ ọkàn mi! Jí, ohun orin èlò àti dùùrù! Èmi tìkára mi, yóò sì jí ní kùtùkùtù.
Wake up, my glory. Wake up, psaltery and harp. I will wake up the dawn.
9 Èmi ó máa yìn ọ́, Olúwa, láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè; èmi ó máa kọrin sí ọ láàrín àwọn ènìyàn.
I will give thanks to you, Jehovah, among the peoples. I will sing praises to you among the nations.
10 Nítorí títóbi ní ìfẹ́ rẹ, tí ó dé ọ̀run; òtítọ́ rẹ tàn dé àwọsánmọ̀.
For your great loving kindness reaches to the heavens, and your truth to the skies.
11 Gbígbéga ni ọ́, Ọlọ́run, ju àwọn ọ̀run lọ; kí ògo rẹ kí ó ju gbogbo ayé lọ.
Be exalted, God, above the heavens. Let your glory be over all the earth.
