Psalms 27

1 A Psalm of David. The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Ti Dafidi. Olúwa ni ìmọ́lẹ̀ mi àti ìgbàlà mi; ta ni èmi yóò bẹ̀rù? Olúwa ni ibi ìsádi ẹ̀mí mi, ẹ̀rù ta ni yóò bà mí?

2 When evil-doers came upon me to eat up my flesh, even mine adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.

Nígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn búburú kọjú ìjà sí mi láti jẹ ẹran-ara mi, àní àwọn ọ̀tá mi àti àwọn abínúkú mi, wọn yóò kọsẹ̀, wọn yóò sì ṣubú.

3 Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war should rise up against me, even then will I be confident.

Bí ọmọ-ogun tilẹ̀ yí mi ká tí wọ́n sì dìde sí mi, ọkàn mi kì yóò bẹ̀rù; bí ogun tilẹ̀ dìde sí mi, nínú èyí ni ọkàn mi yóò le.

4 One thing have I asked of the LORD, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the graciousness of the LORD, and to visit early in His temple.

Ohun kan ni mo béèrè lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa, òhun ni èmi yóò máa wá kiri: kí èmi kí ó le wà ní ilé Olúwa ní ọjọ́ ayé mi gbogbo, kí èmi: kí ó le kíyèsi ẹwà Olúwa, kí èmi kí ó sì máa wà ní tẹmpili rẹ̀.

5 For He concealeth me in His pavilion in the day of evil; He hideth me in the covert of His tent; He lifteth me up upon a rock.

Nítorí pé ní ìgbà ìpọ́njú òun yóò pa mí mọ́ nínú àgọ́ rẹ̀; níbi ìkọ̀kọ̀ àgọ́ rẹ̀ ni òun yóò pa mí mọ́; yóò sì gbé mi sókè lórí àpáta.

6 And now shall my head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me; and I will offer in His tabernacle sacrifices with trumpet-sound; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.

Ní ìsinsin yìí, a ti gbé orí mi sókè ga ju ti àwọn ọ̀tá mi lọ tí ó yí mí ká; èmi yóò rú ẹbọ nínú àgọ́ rẹ, ẹbọ ariwo àti ti ayọ̀; èmi yóò kọrin àní orin dídùn sí Olúwa.

7 Hear, O LORD, when I call with my voice, and be gracious unto me, and answer me.

Gbọ́ ohùn mi nígbà tí ẹ̀mí bá à ń pè, Olúwa, ṣe àánú fún mi kí o sì dá mi lóhùn,

8 In Thy behalf my heart hath said: 'Seek ye My face'; Thy face, LORD, will I seek.

Ọkàn mi wí pé, “Wá ojú u rẹ̀!” Ojú rẹ, Olúwa, ni ti èmí ń wá.

9 Hide not Thy face from me; put not Thy servant away in anger; Thou hast been my help; cast me not off, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.

Má ṣe fi ojú rẹ pamọ́ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi, má ṣe fi ìbínú sá ìránṣẹ́ rẹ tì; ìwọ tí o ti jẹ́ olùrànlọ́wọ́ mi, Má ṣe fi mí sílẹ̀, má sì ṣe kọ̀ mí, háà! Ọlọ́run ìgbàlà mi.

10 For though my father and my mother have forsaken me, the LORD will take me up.

Bí ìyá àti baba bá kọ̀ mí sílẹ̀, Olúwa yóò tẹ́wọ́ gbà mí.

11 Teach me Thy way, O LORD; and lead me in an even path, because of them that lie in wait for me.

Kọ́ mi ní ọ̀nà rẹ, Olúwa, kí o sì sìn mi lọ sí ọ̀nà tí ó tẹ́jú nítorí àwọn ọ̀tá mi.

12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine adversaries; for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out violence.

Má ṣe fi mí lé ìfẹ́ àwọn ọ̀tá mi lọ́wọ́, nítorí àwọn ẹlẹ́rìí èké ti dìde sí mi, wọ́n sì mí ìmí ìkà.

13 If I had not believed to look upon the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living! —

Èmi ní ìgbàgbọ́ pé, èmi yóò rí ìre Olúwa ní ilẹ̀ alààyè.

14 Wait on the LORD; be strong, and let thy heart take courage; yea, wait thou for the LORD.

Dúró de Olúwa; kí ó jẹ alágbára, kí o sì mú ọkàn le àní dúró de Olúwa.
