Psalms 86
1 Àdúrà ti Dafidi. Gbọ́, Olúwa, kí o sì dá mi lóhùn, nítorí mo jẹ́ tálákà àti aláìní.
A Prayer of David himself. Incline your ear, O Lord, and hear me. For I am needy and poor.
2 Dáàbò bò ayé mi, nítorí a ti yà mí sọ́tọ̀ fún ọ: ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run mi, gbà ìránṣẹ́ rẹ là tí ó gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ọ.
Preserve my soul, for I am holy. My God, bring salvation to your servant who hopes in you.
3 Ṣàánú fún mi, Olúwa, nítorí èmi ń pè ọ́ ní gbogbo ọjọ́.
O Lord, be merciful to me, for I have cried out to you all day long.
4 Mú ayọ̀ wà fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, nítorí ìwọ, Olúwa, ni mo gbé ọkàn mí sókè sí.
Give joy to the soul of your servant, for I have lifted up my soul to you, Lord.
5 Ìwọ ń dáríjì, ìwọ sì dára, Olúwa, ìwọ sì ṣàánú fún gbogbo àwọn tí ń ké pè ọ́.
For you are sweet and mild, Lord, and plentiful in mercy to all who call upon you.
6 Gbọ́ àdúrà mi, Olúwa; tẹ́tí sí ẹkún mi fún àánú.
Pay attention, Lord, to my prayer, and attend to the voice of my supplication.
7 Ní ọjọ́ ìpọ́njú mi èmi yóò pè ọ́, nítorí ìwọ yóò dá mi lóhùn.
In the day of my tribulation, I cried out to you, because you heeded me.
8 Nínú àwọn òrìṣà kò sí ẹni tí ó dàbí i rẹ, Olúwa: kò sí àwọn iṣẹ́ tí a lè fiwé tìrẹ.
There is no one like you among the gods, O Lord, and there is no one like you in your works.
9 Gbogbo àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí ìwọ dá yóò wá láti wá jọ́sìn níwájú rẹ, Olúwa; wọn ó mú ògo wà fún orúkọ rẹ̀.
All the nations, which you have made, will draw near and adore in your presence, O Lord. And they will glorify your name.
10 Nítorí pé ìwọ tóbi, ìwọ sì ń ṣe ohun ìyanu; ìwọ nìkan ni Ọlọ́run.
For you are great, and you perform wonders. You alone are God.
11 Kọ́ mi ní ọ̀nà rẹ, Olúwa, èmi ó sì máa rìn nínú òtítọ́ rẹ; fún mi ní ọkàn tí kì í yapa, kí èmi kí ó ba lè bẹ̀rù orúkọ rẹ.
Lead me, O Lord, in your way, and I will walk in your truth. May my heart rejoice, so that it will fear your name.
12 Èmi ó yìn ọ́, Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi, pẹ̀lú gbogbo ọkàn mi; èmi ó fògo fún orúkọ rẹ títí láé.
I will confess to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart. And I will glorify your name in eternity.
For your mercy toward me is great, and you have rescued my soul from the lower part of Hell. (Sheol h7585)
14 Àwọn onígbèéraga ń dojúkọ mí, Ọlọ́run; àti ìjọ àwọn alágbára ń wá ọkàn mi kiri, wọn kò sì fi ọ́ pè.
O God, the iniquitous have risen up against me, and the synagogue of the powerful have sought my soul, and they have not placed you in their sight.
15 Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ, Olúwa, jẹ́ aláàánú àti Ọlọ́run olójúrere, Ó lọ́ra láti bínú, Ó sì pọ̀ ní ìfẹ́ àti òtítọ́.
And you, Lord God, are compassionate and merciful, being patient and full of mercy and truthful.
16 Yípadà sí mi kí o sì ṣàánú fún mi; fún àwọn ènìyàn rẹ ní agbára kí o sì gba ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ là.
Look down upon me and have mercy on me. Grant your authority to your servant, and bring salvation to the son of your handmaid.
17 Fi àmì hàn mí fún rere, kí àwọn tí ó kórìíra mi lè ri, kí ojú lè tì wọ́n, nítorí ìwọ Olúwa ni ó ti tù mí nínú.
Make me a sign of what is good, so that those who hate me, may look and be confounded. For you, O Lord, have helped me and consoled me.
