Psalms 76

1 Fún adarí orin. Pẹ̀lú ohun èlò orin olókùn. Saamu ti Asafu. Orin. Ní Juda ni a mọ Ọlọ́run; orúkọ rẹ̀ sì lágbára ní Israẹli

For the end, amongst the Hymns, a Psalm for Asaph; a Song for the Assyrian. God is known in Judea: his name is great in Israel.

2 Àgọ́ rẹ̀ wà ní Salẹmu, ibùgbé rẹ̀ ni Sioni.

And his place has been in peace, and his dwelling-place in Sion.

3 Níbẹ̀ ni ó ṣẹ́ ọfà, asà àti àwọn idà, ohun ìjà ogun. (Sela)

There he broke the power of the bows, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Pause)

4 Ìwọ ni ògo àti ọlá, ju òkè ńlá ìkógun wọ̀nyí lọ.

You do wonderfully shine forth from the everlasting mountains.

5 A kó àwọn alágídí ọkàn ní ìkógun wọ́n sun oorun ìgbẹ̀yìn wọn; kò sí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn akọni tó lè gbé ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sókè.

All the simple ones in heart were troubled; all the men of wealth have slept their sleep, and have found nothing in their hands.

6 Ní ìfibú rẹ, Ọlọ́run Jakọbu, àwọn ẹṣin àti kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun sì dùbúlẹ̀ síbẹ̀.

At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, the riders on horses slumbered.

7 Ìwọ nìkan ni ó yẹ kí a bẹ̀rù. Ta ló lé dúró níwájú rẹ, nígbà tí ìwọ bá ń bínú?

You are terrible; and who shall withstand you, because of your anger?

8 Ìwọ ń ṣe ìdájọ́ láti ọ̀run, ilé ayé bẹ̀rù, ó sì dúró jẹ́ẹ́,

You did cause judgement to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,

9 nígbà tí, ìwọ Ọlọ́run, bá dìde láti ṣe ìdájọ́, láti gba àwọn ẹni ìnilára ilẹ̀ náà. (Sela)

when God arose to judgement, to save all the meek in heart. (Pause)

10 Lóòótọ́, ìbínú rẹ sí àwọn ènìyàn ń mú ìyìn wá fún ọ, ẹni tí ó yọ nínú ìbínú rẹ ní a dá nígbà tí ìwọ bá fi ìbínú ìyókù di ara rẹ ni àmùrè.

For the inward thought of man shall give thanks to you: and the memorial of his inward thought shall keep a feast to you.

11 Jẹ́ ẹ̀jẹ́ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ kí o sì mú un ṣẹ; kí gbogbo àwọn tí ó yí i ká mú ẹ̀bùn wá fún ẹni tí ó tọ́ láti bẹ̀rù.

Vow, and pay [your vows] to the Lord our God; all that are round about him shall bring gifts, [even] to him that is terrible,

12 Ó ké ẹ̀mí àwọn aládé kúrò; àwọn ọba ayé sì ń bẹ̀rù rẹ̀.

and that takes away the spirits of princes; to him that is terrible amongst the kings of the earth.
