< Psalms 68 >

1 Fún adarí orin. Ti Dafidi. Saamu. Orin. Kí Ọlọ́run kí ó dìde, kí àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀ kí ó fọ́nká; kí àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀ kí ó sá níwájú rẹ̀.
To the chief Musician. Of David. A Psalm: a Song. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered, and let them that hate him flee before him.
2 Bí ìjì ti ń fẹ́ èéfín lọ, kí ó fẹ́ wọn lọ; bí ìda ti í yọ́ níwájú iná, kí olùṣe búburú ṣègbé níwájú Ọlọ́run.
As smoke is driven, thou wilt drive them away; as wax melteth before the fire, the wicked shall perish at the presence of God.
3 Ṣùgbọ́n kí inú olódodo kí ó dùn kí ó sì kún fún ayọ̀ níwájú Ọlọ́run; kí inú wọn kí ó dùn, kí ó sì kún fún ayọ̀.
But the righteous shall rejoice: they shall exult before God and be glad with joy.
4 Ẹ kọrin sí Ọlọ́run, ẹ kọrin ìyìn sí i, ẹ la ọ̀nà fún ẹni tí ń rékọjá ní aginjù. Olúwa ni orúkọ rẹ̀, kí ẹ sì máa yọ̀ níwájú rẹ̀.
Sing unto God, sing forth his name; cast up a way for him that rideth in the deserts: his name is Jah; and rejoice before him.
5 Baba àwọn aláìní baba àti onídàájọ́ àwọn opó ni Ọlọ́run ní ibùgbé rẹ̀ mímọ́
A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.
6 Ọlọ́run gbé aláìlera kalẹ̀ nínú ìdílé, ó darí àwọn ẹlẹ́wọ̀n pẹ̀lú orin, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọlọ́tẹ̀ ní ń gbé nínú ilẹ̀ gbígbẹ.
God maketh the solitary into families; those that were bound he bringeth out into prosperity: but the rebellious dwell in a parched [land].
7 Nígbà tí ìwọ bá jáde lónìí níwájú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, Ọlọ́run, tí ń kọjá lọ láàrín aginjù, (Sela)
O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness (Selah)
8 Ilẹ̀ mì títí, àwọn ọ̀run ń rọ òjò jáde, níwájú Ọlọ́run, ẹni Sinai, níwájú Ọlọ́run, Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
The earth trembled, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God, yon Sinai, at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9 Ìwọ fún wa ní ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ òjò, Ọlọ́run; ìwọ tu ilẹ̀ ìní rẹ̀ lára nígbà tí ó rẹ̀ ẹ́ tan.
Thou, O God, didst pour a plentiful rain upon thine inheritance, and when it was weary thou strengthenedst it.
10 Àwọn ènìyàn rẹ tẹ̀dó síbẹ̀ nínú ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ìní rẹ, Ọlọ́run, ìwọ pèsè fún àwọn aláìní.
Thy flock hath dwelt therein: thou hast prepared in thy goodness, for the afflicted, O God!
11 Olúwa ti pàṣẹ ọ̀rọ̀, púpọ̀ ní ogun àwọn ẹni tí ó ń ròyìn rẹ̀.
The Lord gives the word: great the host of the publishers.
12 “Àwọn ọba àti àwọn ológun yára sálọ; obìnrin tí ó sì jókòó ni ilé ní ń pín ìkógun náà.
Kings of armies flee; they flee, and she that tarrieth at home divideth the spoil.
13 Nígbà tí ẹ̀yin dùbúlẹ̀ láàrín agbo ẹran, nígbà náà ni ẹ̀yin ó dàbí ìyẹ́ àdàbà ti a bò ní fàdákà, àti ìyẹ́ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú wúrà pupa.”
Though ye have lain among the sheepfolds, [ye shall be as] wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with green gold.
14 Nígbà tí Olódùmarè fọ́n àwọn ọba ká ní ilẹ̀ náà, ó dàbí òjò dídi ní Salmoni.
When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it became snow-white as Zalmon.
15 Òkè Baṣani jẹ́ òkè Ọlọ́run; òkè tí ó ní orí púpọ̀ ni òkè Baṣani.
[As] mount Bashan is the mount of God, a many-peaked mountain, [as] mount Bashan.
16 Kí ló dé tí ẹ̀yin fi ń ṣe ìlara, ẹ̀yin òkè wúwo, òkè tí Ọlọ́run ti fẹ́ láti jẹ ọba níbi tí Olúwa fúnra rẹ̀ yóò máa gbé títí láé?
Why do ye look with envy, ye many-peaked mountains, upon the mount that God hath desired for his abode? yea, Jehovah will dwell [there] for ever.
17 Ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá ni kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun Ọlọ́run ẹgbẹ̀rún lọ́nà ẹgbẹ̀rún; Olúwa ń bẹ láàrín wọn, ní Sinai ni ibi mímọ́ rẹ̀.
The chariots of God are twenty thousand, thousands upon thousands; the Lord is among them: it is a Sinai in holiness.
18 Ìwọ ti gòkè sí ibi gíga ìwọ ti di ìgbèkùn ní ìgbèkùn lọ; ìwọ ti gba ẹ̀bùn fún ènìyàn: nítòótọ́, fún àwọn ọlọ̀tẹ̀ pẹ̀lú, kí Olúwa Ọlọ́run lè máa bá wọn gbé.
Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts in Man, and even [for] the rebellious, for the dwelling [there] of Jah Elohim.
19 Olùbùkún ni Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Olùgbàlà wa, ẹni tí ó ń fi ojoojúmọ́ gba ẹrù wa rù. (Sela)
Blessed be the Lord: day by day doth he load us [with good], the God who is our salvation. (Selah)
20 Ọlọ́run wa jẹ́ Ọlọ́run tó ń gbàlà àti sí Olúwa Olódùmarè ni ó ń gbà wá lọ́wọ́ ikú.
Our God is the God of salvation; and with Jehovah, the Lord, are the goings forth [even] from death.
21 Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run yóò tẹ orí àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀, àti agbárí onírun àwọn tó ń tẹ̀síwájú nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn
Verily God will smite the head of his enemies, the hairy scalp of him that goeth on still in his trespasses.
22 Olúwa wí pé, “Èmi ó mú wọn wá láti Baṣani; èmi ó mú wọn wá láti ibú omi Òkun,
The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring [them] again from the depth of the sea;
23 kí ẹsẹ̀ rẹ kí ó le pọ́n ní inú ẹ̀jẹ̀ àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ, àti ahọ́n àwọn ajá rẹ ní ìpín tiwọn lára àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ.”
That thou mayest dip thy foot in blood: the tongue of thy dogs has its portion from enemies.
24 Wọ́n ti rí ìrìn rẹ, Ọlọ́run, ìrìn Ọlọ́run mi àti ọba mi ní ibi mímọ́ rẹ̀.
They have seen thy goings, O God, the goings of my God, my King, in the sanctuary.
25 Àwọn akọrin wà ní iwájú, àwọn olórin wà lẹ́yìn; àwọn ọmọbìnrin tí ń lu ṣaworo sì wà pẹ̀lú wọn.
The singers went before, the players on stringed instruments after, in the midst of maidens playing on tabrets.
26 Ẹ fi ìyìn fún Olúwa ní ẹgbẹgbẹ́; àní fún Olúwa ẹ̀yin tí ó ti orísun Israẹli wá.
In the congregations bless ye God, the Lord, — [ye] from the fountain of Israel.
27 Níbẹ̀ ní ẹ̀yà kékeré Benjamini wà, tí ó ń darí wọn, níbẹ̀ ni àwọn ọmọ-aládé Juda, níbẹ̀ ni àwọn ọmọ-aládé Sebuluni àti tí Naftali.
There is little Benjamin, their ruler; the princes of Judah, their company; the princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.
28 Pàṣẹ agbára rẹ, Ọlọ́run; fi agbára rẹ hàn wá, Ọlọ́run, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwọ ti ṣe ní ìṣáájú.
Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.
29 Nítorí tẹmpili rẹ ni Jerusalẹmu àwọn ọba yóò mú ẹ̀bùn wá fún ọ.
Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee.
30 Bá àwọn ẹranko búburú wí, tí ń gbé láàrín eèsún ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àwọn akọ màlúù pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ màlúù títí olúkúlùkù yóò fi foríbalẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìwọ̀n fàdákà: tú àwọn ènìyàn tí ń ṣe inú dídùn sí ogun ká.
Rebuke the beast of the reeds, the assembly of the strong, with the calves of the peoples: [every one] submitteth himself with pieces of silver. Scatter the peoples that delight in war.
31 Àwọn ọmọ-aládé yóò wá láti Ejibiti; Etiopia yóò na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sí Ọlọ́run.
Great ones shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall quickly stretch out her hands unto God.
32 Kọrin sí Ọlọ́run, ẹ̀yin ìjọba ayé, kọrin ìyìn sí Olúwa, (Sela)
Ye kingdoms of the earth, sing unto God; sing psalms of the Lord, (Selah)
33 Sí ẹni tí ń gun ọ̀run dé ọ̀run àtijọ́ lókè, tó ń fọhùn rẹ̀, ohùn ńlá.
Of him that rideth upon the heavens, the heavens which are of old: lo, he uttereth his voice, a mighty voice.
34 Kéde agbára Ọlọ́run, ọláńlá rẹ̀ wà lórí Israẹli, tí agbára rẹ̀ wà lójú ọ̀run.
Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel, and his strength is in the clouds.
35 Ìwọ ní ẹ̀rù, Ọlọ́run, ní ibi mímọ́ rẹ; Ọlọ́run Israẹli fi agbára àti okun fún àwọn ènìyàn rẹ. Olùbùkún ní Ọlọ́run!
Terrible art thou, O God, out of thy sanctuaries, — the God of Israel! He it is that giveth strength and might unto the people. Blessed be God!
