< Psalms 72 >
1 Ti Solomoni. Fi ìdájọ́ fún àwọn ọba, Ọlọ́run, ọmọ-aládé ni ìwọ fi òdodo rẹ fún.
“By Solomon.” O God, give unto the king thy decisions, and thy righteousness unto the king's son.
2 Yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú òdodo, yóò sì máa fi ẹ̀tọ́ ṣe ìdájọ́ àwọn tálákà rẹ̀.
He shall decide for thy people with righteousness, and for thy afflicted with justice.
3 Àwọn òkè ńlá yóò máa mú àlàáfíà fún àwọn ènìyàn àti òkè kéékèèké nípa òdodo.
The mountains shall bear peace for the people, and the hills [the same], through righteousness.
4 Yóò dáàbò bo àwọn tí a pọ́n lójú láàrín àwọn ènìyàn yóò gba àwọn ọmọ aláìní; yóò sì fa àwọn aninilára ya.
He shall judge the afflicted of the people, he shall give help to the children of the needy; but he shall crush the oppressor.
5 Àwọn òtòṣì àti aláìní yóò máa fi ọ̀wọ̀ ńlá fún ọ nígbà gbogbo, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí oòrùn àti òṣùpá bá ń ràn, yóò ti pẹ́ tó, láti ìrandíran.
They shall fear thee as long as the sun shineth, and in the presence of the moon, throughout all generations.
6 Yóò dàbí òjò tí ó ń rọ̀ sórí pápá ìrẹ́mọ́lẹ̀, bí ọwọ́ òjò tó ń rin ilẹ̀.
He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass, as showers which are dropping on the earth.
7 Àwọn olódodo yóò gbilẹ̀ ni ọjọ́ rẹ̀ ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àlàáfíà yóò sì wà; títí tí òṣùpá kò fi ní sí mọ́.
In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace [shall be] till the moon shall be no more.
8 Yóò máa jẹ ọba láti òkun dé òkun àti láti odò Eufurate títí dé òpin ayé.
And he shall have dominion from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.
9 Àwọn tí ó wà ní aginjù yóò tẹríba fún un àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀ yóò máa lá erùpẹ̀ ilẹ̀.
Before him shall bend down those that dwell in the wilderness; and his enemies shall lick the dust.
10 Àwọn ọba Tarṣiṣi àti ti erékùṣù wọn yóò mú ọrẹ wá fún un; àwọn ọba Ṣeba àti Seba wọn ó mú ẹ̀bùn wá fún un.
The kings of Tharshish and of the isles shall bring presents: the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
11 Gbogbo ọba yóò tẹríba fún un àti gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè yóò sìn ín.
Yea, there shall bow down before him all kings: all nations shall serve him.
12 Nítorí yóò gba àwọn aláìní nígbà tí ó bá ń ké, tálákà àti ẹni tí kò ní olùrànlọ́wọ́.
For he will deliver the needy when he crieth; the afflicted also, who hath no helper.
13 Yóò káàánú àwọn aláìlera àti aláìní yóò pa aláìní mọ́ kúrò nínú ikú.
He will spare the poor and needy; and the souls of the needy will he assist.
14 Yóò ra ọkàn wọn padà lọ́wọ́ ẹ̀tàn àti ipá nítorí ẹ̀jẹ̀ wọn ṣọ̀wọ́n níwájú rẹ̀.
From wrong and violence will he deliver their soul; and precious shall their blood be in his eyes.
15 Yóò sì pẹ́ ní ayé! A ó sì fún un ní wúrà Ṣeba. Àwọn ènìyàn yóò sì máa gbàdúrà fún un nígbà gbogbo kí a sì bùkún fún un lójoojúmọ́.
And he shall live; and he will give him of the gold of Sheba: and he will pray in his behalf continually; all the time will he bless him.
16 Kí ìkúnwọ́ ọkà wà lórí ilẹ̀; ní orí òkè ni kí ó máa dàgbà kí èso rẹ̀ kí o gbilẹ̀ bí ti Lebanoni yóò máa gbá yìn bí i koríko ilẹ̀.
There shall be an abundance of corn in the land; upon the top of the mountains its fruit shall shake like [the trees of] Lebanon; and [men] shall blossom out of the city like herbs of the earth.
17 Kí orúkọ rẹ̀ kí ó wà títí láé; orúkọ rẹ̀ yóò máa gbilẹ̀ níwọ̀n bí oòrùn yóò ti pẹ́ tó. Wọn ó sì máa bùkún fún ara wọn nípasẹ̀ rẹ. Gbogbo àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè ní yóò máa pè mí ní alábùkún fún.
His name will endure for ever; in the presence of the sun his name shall flourish: and men shall bless themselves with him: all nations shall call him happy.
18 Olùbùkún ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run, Ọlọ́run Israẹli, ẹnìkan ṣoṣo tí ó ń ṣe ohun ìyanu.
Blessed be the Lord the God, the God of Israel, who alone doth wondrous things.
19 Olùbùkún ni orúkọ rẹ̀ tí ó lógo títí láé; kí gbogbo ayé kún fún ògo rẹ̀.
And blessed he his glorious name for ever; and with his glory may the whole earth be filled: Amen, and Amen.
20 Èyí ni ìparí àdúrà Dafidi ọmọ Jese.
Here are ended the prayers of David the son of Jesse.
