Psalms 16
1 A Miktam of David. Preserve me, O God, for in You I take refuge.
Miiktaamii Daawit. Yaa Waaqi, ani kooluu sitti galeeraatii, ati na eegi.
2 I said to the LORD, “You are my Lord; apart from You I have no good thing.”
Anis Waaqayyoon, “Ati Gooftaa koo ti; ani si malee gaarummaa hin qabu” nan jedha.
3 As for the saints in the land, they are the excellence in whom all my delight resides.
Qulqulloonni lafa irraa garuu ulfina qabeeyyii dha; anis isaanitti baayʼee nan gammada.
4 Sorrows will multiply to those who chase other gods. I will not pour out their libations of blood, or speak their names with my lips.
Warra waaqota tolfamoo duukaa buʼan, gaddi isaanii ni guddata. Dhibaayyuu dhiigaa ani isaaniif hin dhibaafadhu; yookaan afaan kootiin maqaa isaanii hin dhaʼu.
5 The LORD is my chosen portion and my cup; You have made my lot secure.
Waaqayyo qooda dhaala kootii fi qooda xoofoo koo ti; ixaa koos situ naa jiraachisa.
6 The lines of my boundary have fallen in pleasant places; surely my inheritance is delightful.
Funyoon daangaa iddoo gaarii naa buʼeera; dhugumaan ani dhaala nama gammachiisu qaba.
7 I will bless the LORD who counsels me; even at night my conscience instructs me.
Waaqayyo isa na gorsu sana ani nan jajadha; halkanis yaadni koo na qajeelcha.
8 I have set the LORD always before me. Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
Ani yeroo hunda fuula koo duraa Waaqayyoon qaba. Waan inni mirga koo jiruuf ani hin raafamu.
9 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will dwell securely.
Kanaaf garaan koo ni gammada; arrabni koos ni ililcha; foon koos nagaadhaan jiraata;
10 For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol, nor will You let Your Holy One see decay. (Sheol h7585)
ati siiʼool keessatti na hin dhiiftuutii, yookaan amanamaan kee akka tortoru hin gootu. (Sheol h7585)
11 You have made known to me the path of life; You will fill me with joy in Your presence, with eternal pleasures at Your right hand.
Ati karaa jireenyaa na barsiifta; fuula kee durattis gammachuudhaan na guutta; gara mirga keetii gammachuu bara baraatu jira.
