Psalms 84

1 Fún adarí orin. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ti gittiti. Ti àwọn ọmọ Kora. Saamu. Ibùgbé rẹ̀ ti lẹ́wà tó, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun!

Unto the end, for the winepresses, a psalm for the sons of Core. How lovely are thy tabernacles, O Lord of host!

2 Ọkàn mi ń ṣàfẹ́rí nítòótọ́ ó tilẹ̀ pòǹgbẹ fún àgbàlá Olúwa àyà mi àti ara mi ń kọrin ayọ̀ sí Ọlọ́run alààyè.

My soul longeth and fainteth for the courts of the Lord. My heart and my flesh have rejoiced in the living God.

3 Nítòótọ́ ológoṣẹ́ ri ilé, ẹyẹ alápáǹdẹ̀dẹ̀ tẹ́ ìtẹ́ fún ara rẹ̀, níbi tí yóò máa pa ọmọ rẹ̀ mọ́ sí: ibùgbé ní tòsí pẹpẹ rẹ̀, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, ọba mí àti Ọlọ́run mi.

For the sparrow hath found herself a house, and the turtle a nest for herself where she may lay her young ones: Thy altars, O Lord of hosts, my king and my God.

4 Ìbùkún ní fún àwọn tí ó ń gbé inú ilé rẹ; wọn ó máa yìn ọ́ títí láé.

Blessed are they that dwell in thy house, O Lord: they shall praise thee for ever and ever.

5 Ìbùkún ni fún àwọn tí agbára wọn wà nínú rẹ àwọn tí wọ́n gbé ọkàn lé bíbẹ ibi mímọ́ wò.

Blessed is the man whose help is from thee: in his heart he hath disposed to ascend by steps,

6 Àwọn tí ń la àfonífojì omijé lọ wọn sọ ọ́ di kànga àkọ́rọ̀ òjò sì fi ìbùkún bò ó.

In the vale of tears, in the place which be hath set.

7 Wọ́n ń lọ láti ipa dé ipá títí tí ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan fi farahàn níwájú Ọlọ́run ní Sioni.

For the lawgiver shall give a blessing, they shall go from virtue to virtue: the God of gods shall be seen in Sion.

8 Gbọ́ àdúrà mi, Olúwa Ọlọ́run Alágbára; tẹ́tí sí mi, Ọlọ́run Jakọbu.

O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob.

9 Wo asà wa, Ọlọ́run; fi ojú àánú wò àwọn ẹni àmì òróró rẹ.

Behold, O God our protector: and look on the face of thy Christ.

10 Dídára ní ọjọ́ kan ní ààfin rẹ ju ẹgbẹ̀rún ọjọ́ lọ; èmi o kúkú máa ṣe aṣọ́nà nínú ilé Ọlọ́run mi jù láti gbé ní àgọ́ àwọn ènìyàn búburú.

For better is one day in thy courts above thousands. I have chosen to be an abject in the house of my God, rather than to dwell in the tabernacles of sinners.

11 Nítorí Olúwa Ọlọ́run jẹ́ òòrùn àti asà; Olúwa fún ni ní ojúrere àti ọlá; kò sí ohun rere kan tí yóò fàsẹ́yìn fún àwọn tí ó rìn ní àìlábùkù.

For God loveth mercy and truth: the Lord will give grace and glory.

12 Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, ìbùkún ni fún ọkùnrin náà tí ó gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ọ.

He will not deprive of good things them that walk in innocence: O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
