< Psalms 80 >

1 Fún adarí orin. Tí ohùn “Lílì Ti Májẹ̀mú.” Ti Safu. Saamu. Gbọ́ tiwa, ìwọ olùṣọ́-àgùntàn Israẹli; ìwọ tí ó darí Josẹfu bí ọ̀wọ́ ẹran. Ìwọ tí o jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ láàrín Kérúbù, tàn jáde
Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth.
2 níwájú Efraimu, Benjamini àti Manase. Ru agbára rẹ̀ sókè; wá fún ìgbàlà wa.
Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and come and save us.
3 Mú wa padà bọ̀ sípò, ìwọ Ọlọ́run; jẹ́ kí ojú rẹ kí ó tan ìmọ́lẹ̀ sí wa, kí a bá à lè gbà wá là.
Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
4 Olúwa Ọlọ́run alágbára, ìbínú rẹ̀ yóò ti pẹ́ tó sí àdúrà àwọn ènìyàn rẹ?
O Yhwh God of Armies, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?
5 Ìwọ ti fi oúnjẹ bọ́ wọn ìwọ ti mú wọn wa ẹkún mu ní ẹ̀kúnrẹ́rẹ́.
Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to drink in great measure.
6 Ìwọ sọ wá di ẹlẹ́yà fún àwọn aládùúgbò wa, àwọn ọ̀tá wa sì ń yọ̀ wá.
Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh among themselves.
7 Tún wa yípadà, ìwọ, Ọlọ́run alágbára; jẹ́ kí ojú rẹ tàn sí wa, kí a ba à lè gbà wá là.
Turn us again, O God of Armies, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
8 Ìwọ mú àjàrà jáde láti Ejibiti; ìwọ lé àwọn kèfèrí jáde, o sì gbìn ín.
Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.
9 Ìwọ ṣí ààyè sílẹ̀ fún un, ìwọ sì mu ta gbòǹgbò jinlẹ̀ ó sì kún ilẹ̀ náà.
Thou preparedst room before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.
10 A bò àwọn òkè mọ́lẹ̀ òkè pẹ̀lú òjìji rẹ̀, ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ dàbí kedari Ọlọ́run.
The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars.
11 O yọ ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ sínú Òkun, ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sí odò ńlá nì.
She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river.
12 Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi wó odi rẹ̀ tí àwọn ènìyàn tí ó ń kọjá fi ń ṣa èso rẹ̀?
Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?
13 Ìmàdò láti inú igbó ń bá a jẹ́ àti ẹranko igbó ń jẹ ẹ́ run.
The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it.
14 Yípadà sí wa, àwa ń bẹ̀ ọ́, Ọlọ́run alágbára! Bojú wolẹ̀ láti ọ̀run kí o sì wò ó! Kí o sì bẹ àjàrà yìí wò,
Return, we beseech thee, O God of Armies: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine;
15 gbòǹgbò èyí tí ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ ti gbìn, àti ẹ̀ka tí ìwọ ti mú lágbára fún ara rẹ.
And the vineyard which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that thou madest strong for thyself.
16 A gé àjàrà rẹ lulẹ̀, a ti fi iná sun ún; ní ìfibú, àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ ń ṣègbé.
It is burned with fire, it is cut down: they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.
17 Jẹ́ kí ọwọ́ rẹ kí ó wà lára ọkùnrin tí ó wà ní ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ, ọmọ ènìyàn tí ìwọ tí gbé kalẹ̀ fún ara rẹ.
Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself.
18 Nígbà náà àwa kí yóò yípadà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ; mú wa yè, àwa o sì máa pe orúkọ rẹ.
So will not we go back from thee: quicken us, and we will call upon thy name.
19 Tún wa yípadà, Olúwa Ọlọ́run alágbára; kí ojú rẹ̀ kí ó tan ìmọ́lẹ̀ sí wa, kí á ba à lè gbà wá là.
Turn us again, O Yhwh God of Armies, cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.
