Psalms 141
1 I have cried to the, O Lord, hear me: hearken to my voice, when I cry to thee.
Saamu ti Dafidi. Olúwa, èmi ké pè ọ́; yára wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi. Gbọ́ ohùn mi, nígbà tí mo bá ń ké pè ọ́.
2 Let my prayer be directed as incense in thy sight; the lifting up of my hands, as evening sacrifice.
Jẹ́ kí àdúrà mi ó wá sí iwájú rẹ bí ẹbọ tùràrí àti ìgbé ọwọ́ mi si òkè rí bí ẹbọ àṣálẹ́.
3 Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth: and a door round about my lips.
Fi ẹ̀ṣọ́ ṣọ́ ẹnu mi, Olúwa: kí o sì máa pa ìlẹ̀kùn ètè mi mọ́.
4 Incline not my heart to evil words; to make excuses in sins. With men that work iniquity: and I will not communicate with the choicest of them.
Má ṣe jẹ́ kí ọkàn mi fà sí ohun tí ń ṣe ibi, láti máa bá àwọn tí ń ṣiṣẹ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ búburú má sì ṣe jẹ́ kí èmi jẹ àdídùn wọn.
5 The just shall correct me in mercy, and shall reprove me: but let not the oil of the sinner fatten my head. For my prayer also shall still be against the things with which they are well pleased:
Jẹ́ kí olódodo lù mí, ìṣeun ni ó jẹ́: jẹ́ kí ó bá mi wí, ó jẹ́ òróró ní orí mi. Tí kì yóò fọ́ mi ní orí. Síbẹ̀ àdúrà mi wá láìsí ìṣe àwọn olùṣe búburú.
6 Their judges falling upon the rock have been swallowed up. They shall hear my words, for they have prevailed:
A ó ju àwọn alákòóso sílẹ̀ láti bẹ̀bẹ̀ òkúta, àwọn ẹni búburú yóò kọ pé àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ mi dùn.
7 As when the thickness of the earth is broken up upon the ground: Our bones are scattered by the side of hell. (Sheol h7585)
Wọn yóò wí pé, “Bí ẹni tí ó la aporo sórí ilẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni egungun wa tànkálẹ̀ ní ẹnu isà òkú.” (Sheol h7585)
8 But o to thee, O Lord, Lord, are my eyes: in thee have I put my trust, take not away my soul.
Ṣùgbọ́n ojú mi ń bẹ lára rẹ, Olúwa Olódùmarè; nínú rẹ̀ ni èmi ti rí ààbò, má ṣe fà mi fún ikú.
9 Keep me from the snare, which they have laid for me, and from the stumblingblocks of them that work iniquity.
Pa mí mọ́ kúrò nínú okùn tí wọn ti dẹ sílẹ̀ fún mi, kúrò nínú ìkẹ́kùn àwọn oníṣẹ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀.
10 The wicked shall fall in his net: I am alone until I pass.
Jẹ́ kí àwọn ẹni búburú ṣubú sínú àwọ̀n ara wọn, nígbà tí èmi bá kọjá lọ láìléwu.
