Psalms 94
1 Olúwa Ọlọ́run ẹni tí ń gbẹ̀san, Ọlọ́run ẹni tí ń gbẹ̀san.
Jehovah, you God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth.
2 Gbé ara rẹ sókè, ìwọ onídàájọ́ ayé; san ẹ̀san fún agbéraga ohun tí ó yẹ wọ́n.
Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they deserve.
3 Báwo ní yóò ti pẹ́ tó, Olúwa tí àwọn ẹni búburú yóò kọ orin ayọ̀?
Jehovah, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph?
4 Wọ́n ń sọ̀rọ̀ ìgbéraga jáde; gbogbo àwọn olùṣe búburú kún fún ìṣògo.
They pour out arrogant words. All the evildoers boast.
5 Wọ́n fọ́ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ túútúú, Olúwa: wọ́n pọ́n ilẹ̀ ìní rẹ̀ lójú.
They break your people in pieces, Jehovah, and afflict your heritage.
6 Wọ́n pa àwọn opó àti àlejò, wọ́n sì pa àwọn ọmọ aláìní baba.
They kill the widow and the alien, and murder the fatherless.
7 Wọ́n sọ pé, “Olúwa kò rí i; Ọlọ́run Jakọbu kò sì kíyèsi i.”
They say, "JAH will not see, neither will Jacob's God consider."
8 Kíyèsi i, ẹ̀yin aláìlóye nínú àwọn ènìyàn; ẹ̀yin aṣiwèrè, nígbà wo ni ẹ̀yin yóò lóye?
Consider, you senseless among the people; you fools, when will you be wise?
9 Ẹni tí ó gbin etí, ó lè ṣe aláìgbọ́ bí? Ẹni tí ó dá ojú? Ó ha lè ṣe aláìríran bí?
He who implanted the ear, won't he hear? He who formed the eye, won't he see?
10 Ẹni tí ń bá orílẹ̀-èdè wí, ṣé kò lè tọ́ ni ṣọ́nà bí? Ẹni tí ń kọ́ ènìyàn ha lè ṣàìní ìmọ̀ bí?
He who disciplines the nations, won't he punish? He who teaches man knows.
11 Olúwa mọ èrò inú ènìyàn; ó mọ̀ pé asán ni wọ́n.
Jehovah knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile.
12 Ìbùkún ni fún ènìyàn náà tí ìwọ bá wí, Olúwa, ẹni tí ìwọ kọ́ nínú òfin rẹ,
Blessed is the man whom you discipline, JAH, and teach out of your Law;
13 Ìwọ gbà á kúrò nínú ọjọ́ ibi, títí a ó fi wa ihò sílẹ̀ fún ẹni búburú.
that you may give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for the wicked.
14 Nítorí Olúwa kò ní kọ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, Òun kò sì ní kọ ilẹ̀ ìní rẹ̀ sílẹ̀.
For Jehovah won't reject his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
15 Ìdájọ́ yóò padà sí òdodo, àti gbogbo àwọn ọlọ́kàn dídúró ṣinṣin yóò tẹ̀lé e lẹ́yìn.
For judgment will return to righteousness. All the upright in heart shall follow it.
16 Ta ni yóò dìde fún mi sí àwọn olùṣe búburú? Tàbí ta ni yóò dìde sí àwọn oníṣẹ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ fún mi?
Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand up for me against the evildoers?
17 Bí kò ṣe pé Olúwa fún mi ní ìrànlọ́wọ́, èmi fẹ́rẹ̀ máa gbé ní ilẹ̀ tí ó dákẹ́.
Unless Jehovah had been my help, my soul would have soon lived in silence.
18 Nígbà tí mo sọ pé, “Ẹsẹ̀ mi ń yọ̀”, Olúwa, ìfẹ́ rẹ̀ ni ó tì mí lẹ́yìn.
When I said, "My foot is slipping." Your loving kindness, Jehovah, held me up.
19 Nígbà tí àníyàn ńlá wà nínú mi, ìtùnú rẹ̀ mú ayọ̀ sí ọkàn mi.
In the multitude of my thoughts within me, your comforts delight my soul.
20 Ìjọba ìbàjẹ́ ha lè kẹ́gbẹ́ pẹ̀lú rẹ ẹni tí ń fi òfin dì mọ́ ìwà ìkà?
Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with you, which brings about mischief by statute?
21 Wọ́n kó ara wọn jọ sí olódodo wọ́n sì ń dá àwọn aláìṣẹ̀ lẹ́bi sí ikú.
They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
22 Ṣùgbọ́n, Olúwa ti di odi alágbára mi, àti Ọlọ́run mi ni àpáta nínú ẹni tí mo ti ń gba ààbò.
But Jehovah has been my high tower, my God, the rock of my refuge.
23 Òun yóò san ẹ̀san ibi wọn fún wọn yóò sì pa wọ́n run nítorí búburú wọn Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa yóò pa wọ́n run.
He has brought on them their own iniquity, and will cut them off in their own wickedness. Jehovah, our God, will cut them off.
