Psalms 72
1 Ti Solomoni. Fi ìdájọ́ fún àwọn ọba, Ọlọ́run, ọmọ-aládé ni ìwọ fi òdodo rẹ fún.
[By Solomon.] God, give the king your justice; your righteousness to the royal son.
2 Yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú òdodo, yóò sì máa fi ẹ̀tọ́ ṣe ìdájọ́ àwọn tálákà rẹ̀.
He will judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with justice.
3 Àwọn òkè ńlá yóò máa mú àlàáfíà fún àwọn ènìyàn àti òkè kéékèèké nípa òdodo.
The mountains shall bring prosperity to the people. The hills bring the fruit of 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 will judge the poor of the people. He will save the children of the needy, and will break the oppressor in pieces.
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 you while the sun endures; and as long as the moon, throughout all generations.
6 Yóò dàbí òjò tí ó ń rọ̀ sórí pápá ìrẹ́mọ́lẹ̀, bí ọwọ́ òjò tó ń rin ilẹ̀.
He will come down like rain on the mown grass, as showers that water 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, the righteous shall flourish, and abundance of peace, until the moon is no more.
8 Yóò máa jẹ ọba láti òkun dé òkun àti láti odò Eufurate títí dé òpin ayé.
He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, from the River to the farthest parts of the earth.
9 Àwọn tí ó wà ní aginjù yóò tẹríba fún un àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀ yóò máa lá erùpẹ̀ ilẹ̀.
Those who dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him. 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 Tarshish and of the islands will bring tribute. The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
11 Gbogbo ọba yóò tẹríba fún un àti gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè yóò sìn ín.
Yes, all kings shall fall down before him. 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 cries; the poor, who has no helper.
13 Yóò káàánú àwọn aláìlera àti aláìní yóò pa aláìní mọ́ kúrò nínú ikú.
He will have pity on the poor and needy. He will save the souls of the needy.
14 Yóò ra ọkàn wọn padà lọ́wọ́ ẹ̀tàn àti ipá nítorí ẹ̀jẹ̀ wọn ṣọ̀wọ́n níwájú rẹ̀.
He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence. Their blood will be precious in his sight.
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 the gold of Sheba shall be given to him. Men shall pray for him continually. He shall bless him all day long.
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 abundance of grain throughout the land. Its fruit sways like Lebanon. Let it flourish, thriving like the grass of the field.
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 endures forever. His name continues as long as the sun. Men shall be blessed by him. All nations will call him blessed.
18 Olùbùkún ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run, Ọlọ́run Israẹli, ẹnìkan ṣoṣo tí ó ń ṣe ohun ìyanu.
Praise be to Jehovah, the God of Israel, who alone does marvelous deeds.
19 Olùbùkún ni orúkọ rẹ̀ tí ó lógo títí láé; kí gbogbo ayé kún fún ògo rẹ̀.
Blessed be his glorious name forever. Let the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen and amen.
20 Èyí ni ìparí àdúrà Dafidi ọmọ Jese.
This ends the prayers by David, the son of Jesse.
