To the Overseer. — 'On the Lilies.' A testimony of Asaph. — A Psalm. Shepherd of Israel, give ear, Leading Joseph as a flock, Inhabiting the cherubs — shine forth,
2 níwájú Efraimu, Benjamini àti Manase. Ru agbára rẹ̀ sókè; wá fún ìgbàlà wa.
Before Ephraim, and Benjamin, and Manasseh, Wake up Thy might, and come for our salvation.
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.
O God, cause us to turn back, And cause Thy face to shine, and we are saved.
4 Olúwa Ọlọ́run alágbára, ìbínú rẹ̀ yóò ti pẹ́ tó sí àdúrà àwọn ènìyàn rẹ?
Jehovah, God of Hosts, till when? Thou hast burned against the prayer of Thy people.
5 Ìwọ ti fi oúnjẹ bọ́ wọn ìwọ ti mú wọn wa ẹkún mu ní ẹ̀kúnrẹ́rẹ́.
Thou hast caused them to eat bread of tears, And causest them to drink With tears a third time.
6 Ìwọ sọ wá di ẹlẹ́yà fún àwọn aládùúgbò wa, àwọn ọ̀tá wa sì ń yọ̀ wá.
Thou makest us a strife to our neighbours, And our enemies mock at it.
7 Tún wa yípadà, ìwọ, Ọlọ́run alágbára; jẹ́ kí ojú rẹ tàn sí wa, kí a ba à lè gbà wá là.
God of Hosts, turn us back, And cause Thy face to shine, and we are saved.
8 Ìwọ mú àjàrà jáde láti Ejibiti; ìwọ lé àwọn kèfèrí jáde, o sì gbìn ín.
A vine out of Egypt Thou dost bring, Thou dost cast out nations, and plantest it.
9 Ìwọ ṣí ààyè sílẹ̀ fún un, ìwọ sì mu ta gbòǹgbò jinlẹ̀ ó sì kún ilẹ̀ náà.
Thou hast looked before it, and dost root it, And it filleth the land,
10 A bò àwọn òkè mọ́lẹ̀ òkè pẹ̀lú òjìji rẹ̀, ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ dàbí kedari Ọlọ́run.
Covered have been hills [with] its shadow, And its boughs [are] cedars of God.
11 O yọ ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ sínú Òkun, ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sí odò ńlá nì.
It sendeth forth its branches unto the sea, And unto the river its sucklings.
12 Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi wó odi rẹ̀ tí àwọn ènìyàn tí ó ń kọjá fi ń ṣa èso rẹ̀?
Why hast Thou broken down its hedges, And all passing by the way have plucked it?
13 Ìmàdò láti inú igbó ń bá a jẹ́ àti ẹranko igbó ń jẹ ẹ́ run.
A boar out of the forest doth waste it, And a wild beast of the fields consumeth 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,
God of Hosts, turn back, we beseech Thee, Look from heaven, and see, and inspect this vine,
15 gbòǹgbò èyí tí ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ ti gbìn, àti ẹ̀ka tí ìwọ ti mú lágbára fún ara rẹ.
And the root that Thy right hand planted, And the branch Thou madest strong for Thee,
16 A gé àjàrà rẹ lulẹ̀, a ti fi iná sun ún; ní ìfibú, àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ ń ṣègbé.
Burnt with fire — cut down, From the rebuke of Thy face they perish.
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 on the man of Thy right hand, On the son of man Thou hast strengthened for Thyself.
18 Nígbà náà àwa kí yóò yípadà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ; mú wa yè, àwa o sì máa pe orúkọ rẹ.
And we do not go back from Thee, Thou dost revive us, and in Thy name we call.
19 Tún wa yípadà, Olúwa Ọlọ́run alágbára; kí ojú rẹ̀ kí ó tan ìmọ́lẹ̀ sí wa, kí á ba à lè gbà wá là.
O Jehovah, God of Hosts, turn us back, Cause Thy face to shine, and we are saved!
