Psalms 75

1 Fún adarí orin. Tí ohùn, “Má ṣe parun.” Saamu ti Asafu. Orin. A fi ìyìn fún ọ, Ọlọ́run, a yìn ọ́, nítorí orúkọ rẹ súnmọ́ tòsí; àwọn ènìyàn ń sọ ti ìyanu rẹ.

TO THE OVERSEER. “DO NOT DESTROY.” A PSALM OF ASAPH. A SONG. We have given thanks to You, O God, We have given thanks, and Your Name [is] near, They have recounted Your wonders.

2 Ìwọ wí pé, “Mo yan àkókò ìyàsọ́tọ̀; Èmi ni ẹni tí ń ṣe ìdájọ́ òdodo.

When I receive an appointment, I judge uprightly.

3 Nígbà tí ayé àti àwọn ènìyàn ibẹ̀ wárìrì, Èmi ni mo di òpó rẹ̀ mú ṣinṣin.

The earth and all its inhabitants are melted, I have pondered its pillars. (Selah)

4 Èmí wí fún àwọn agbéraga pé, ẹ má ṣe gbéraga mọ́; àti sí ènìyàn búburú; ẹ má ṣe gbé ìwo yín sókè.

I have said to the boastful, “Do not be boastful,” And to the wicked, “Do not raise up a horn.”

5 Ẹ má ṣe gbe ìwo yín sókè sí ọ̀run; ẹ má ṣe sọ̀rọ̀ pẹ̀lú ọrùn líle.”

Do not raise up your horn on high (You speak with a stiff neck).

6 Nítorí ìgbéga kò ti ìlà-oòrùn wá tàbí ní ìwọ̀-oòrùn, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kì í ṣe láti gúúsù wá.

For not from the east, or from the west, Nor from the wilderness—[is] elevation.

7 Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run ni olùdájọ́; Ó ń rẹ ẹnìkan sílẹ̀, ó sì ń gbé ẹlòmíràn ga.

But God [is] judging, This He makes low—and this He lifts up.

8 Ní ọwọ́ Olúwa ni ago kan wà, ọtí wáìnì náà sì pọ́n, ó kún fún àdàlú, ó fún ọtí àdàlú tí a pò mọ́ òórùn dídùn tí ó tú jáde, àwọn ènìyàn búburú ayé gbogbo mú u pátápátá.

For a cup [is] in the hand of YHWH, And the wine has foamed, It is full of mixture, and He pours out of it, Surely wring out its dregs, And all the wicked of the earth drink,

9 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi, ó máa ròyìn rẹ títí láé; èmi ó kọrin ìyìn sí Ọlọ́run Jakọbu.

And I declare [it] for all time, I sing praise to the God of Jacob.

10 Èmi ó gé ìwo gbogbo ènìyàn búburú, ṣùgbọ́n ìwo àwọn olódodo ni a ó gbéga.

And I cut off all horns of the wicked, The horns of the righteous are exalted!
