Psalms 20

1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

Dura Buʼaa Faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Guyyaa rakkinaatti Waaqayyo deebii siif haa kennu; maqaan Waaqa Yaaqoobis si haa eegu.

2 May He send you help from the sanctuary and sustain you from Zion.

Inni iddoo qulqulluudhaa gargaarsa siif haa ergu; Xiyoon irraas jabina siif haa kennu.

3 May He remember all your gifts and look favorably on your burnt offerings.

Aarsaa kee hunda siif haa yaadatu; qalma kee kan gubamus siif haa fudhatu.

4 May He give you the desires of your heart and make all your plans succeed.

Hawwii garaa keetii siif haa kennu; karoora kee hundas fiixaan siif haa baasu.

5 May we shout for joy at your victory and raise a banner in the name of our God. May the LORD grant all your petitions.

Yommuu ati moʼattutti ililchinee maqaa Waaqa keenyaatiin faajjii keenya ol fudhanna. Waaqayyo waan ati kadhattu hundumaa siif haa kennu.

6 Now I know that the LORD saves His anointed; He answers him from His holy heaven with the saving power of His right hand.

Ani akka Waaqayyo dibamaa isaa fayyisu amma beeka; Waaqayyo humna nama fayyisu kan harka isaa mirgaa keessa jiru sanaan samii isaa qulqulluu keessaa deebii ni kennaaf.

7 Some trust in chariots and others in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.

Namoonni tokko tokko gaariiwwan amanatu; kaan immoo fardeen amanatu; nu garuu maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaa amananna.

8 They collapse and fall, but we rise up and stand firm.

Isaan gufatanii kufu; nu garuu ol kaana; jabaannees ni dhaabanna.

9 O LORD, save the king. Answer us on the day we call.

Yaa Waaqayyo, ati mootiidhaaf moʼannaa kenni! Yommuu nu si waammannuttis deebii nuu kenni!
