< Psalms 90 >
1 Àdúrà Mose ènìyàn Ọlọ́run. Olúwa, ìwọ ti jẹ́ ibùgbé wa ní gbogbo ìran dé ìran.
[A Prayer by Moses, the man of God.] Jehovah, you have been our dwelling place for all generations.
2 Kí a tó bí àwọn òkè ńlá àti kí ìwọ tó dá ilẹ̀ àti ayé, láti ayérayé dé ayérayé ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run.
Before the mountains were brought forth, before you had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, you are God.
3 Ìwọ yí ènìyàn padà sí erùpẹ̀, wí pé, “Padà sí erùpẹ̀, ìwọ ọmọ ènìyàn.”
You turn man to destruction, saying, "Return, you descendants of Adam."
4 Nítorí pé ìgbà tí ẹgbẹ̀rún ọdún bá kọjá lójú rẹ, bí àná ni ó rí, bí ìgbà ìṣọ́ kan lóru.
For a thousand years in your sight are just like yesterday when it is past, like a watch in the night.
5 Ìwọ gbá ènìyàn dànù nínú oorun ikú; wọ́n dàbí koríko tuntun ní òwúrọ̀.
You sweep them away as they sleep. In the morning they sprout like new grass.
6 Lóòtítọ́, ní òwúrọ̀, ó yọ tuntun ní àṣálẹ́ ni yóò gbẹ, tí yóò sì rẹ̀ dànù.
In the morning it sprouts and springs up. By evening, it is withered and dry.
7 A pa wá run nípa ìbínú rẹ nípa ìbínú rẹ ara kò rọ̀ wá.
For we are consumed in your anger. We are troubled in your wrath.
8 Ìwọ ti gbé ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wa ka iwájú rẹ, àti ohun ìkọ̀kọ̀ wa nínú ìmọ́lẹ̀ iwájú rẹ.
You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.
9 Gbogbo ọjọ́ wa ń kọjá lọ lábẹ́ ìbínú rẹ; àwa ń lo ọjọ́ wa lọ bí àlá tí à ń rọ́.
For all our days have passed away in your wrath. We bring our years to an end as a sigh.
10 Àádọ́rin ọdún ni iye ọjọ́ ọdún wá, bi ó sì ṣe pé nípa agbára tí wọn bá tó ọgọ́rin ọdún, agbára nínú làálàá pẹ̀lú ìbànújẹ́ ni, nítorí pé a kò ní pẹ́ gé e kúrò, àwa a sì fò lọ.
The days of our years are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty years; yet their pride is but labor and sorrow, for it passes quickly, and we fly away.
11 Ta ni ó mọ agbára ìbínú rẹ? Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ̀rù rẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìbínú rẹ.
Who knows the power of your anger, your wrath according to the fear that is due to you?
12 Kọ́ wa bí a ti ń kaye ọjọ́ wa dáradára, kí àwa ba à lè fi ọkàn wa sípa ọgbọ́n.
So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
13 Yípadà, Olúwa! Yóò ti pẹ́ tó? Ṣàánú fún àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ.
Relent, Jehovah. How long? Have compassion on your servants.
14 Tẹ́ wa lọ́rùn ní òwúrọ̀ nínú ìṣeun ìfẹ́ rẹ, kí àwa kí ó lè kọrin fún ayọ̀ kí inú wa sì dùn ní gbogbo ọjọ́.
Satisfy us in the morning with your loving kindness, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15 Mú inú wa dùn bí ọjọ́ tí ìwọ ti pọ́n wa lójú, fún ọjọ́ púpọ̀ tí àwa ti rí wàhálà.
Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen evil.
16 Jẹ́ kí a fi iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ han àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, ògo rẹ̀ sí àwọn ọmọ wọn.
Let your work appear to your servants; your glory to their children.
17 Jẹ́ kí ẹwà Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa wà lára wa; fi ìdí iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ wa múlẹ̀ lára wa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, kí ó sì fi ìdí iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ wa múlẹ̀.
Let the favor of Jehovah our God be on us; establish the work of our hands for us; yes, establish the work of our hands.
