< Psalms 28 >

1 Of David. To You, O LORD, I call; be not deaf to me, O my Rock. For if You remain silent, I will be like those descending to the Pit.
Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqayyo, Kattaa ko, ani sin waammadha; ati na jalaa hin didin. Yoo ati na jalaa didde, ani akka warra boolla buʼanii nan taʼa.
2 Hear my cry for mercy when I call to You for help, when I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary.
Yommuu ani gargaarsaaf si waammadhee harka koo illee gara Iddoo Qulqullummaa kee kan Waan Hundumaa Caalaa Qulqulluu taʼe sanaatti ol kaafadhu, sagalee kadhannaa koo naa dhagaʼi.
3 Do not drag me away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbors while malice is in their hearts.
Namoota hamoo warra jalʼina hojjetan wajjin, warra garaa isaaniitti hammina qabatanii olloota isaanii wajjin garuu nagaa dubbatan wajjin na hin balleessin.
4 Repay them according to their deeds and for their works of evil. Repay them for what their hands have done; bring back on them what they deserve.
Akka hojii isaaniitti, akkuma hojii isaanii hamaa sanaattis deebisiif; akkuma hojii harka isaaniitti kenniif; gatii isaaniif malu isaanumatti deebisi.
5 Since they show no regard for the works of the LORD or what His hands have done, He will tear them down and never rebuild them.
Sababii isaan hojii Waaqayyoo, yookaan waan harki isaa hojjete hin kabajneef inni isaan diiga; deebisees isaan hin ijaaru.
6 Blessed be the LORD, for He has heard my cry for mercy.
Waaqayyo haa eebbifamu! Inni iyya kadhannaa kootii naa dhagaʼeeraatii.
7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart rejoices, and I give thanks to Him with my song.
Waaqayyo jabina koo fi gaachana koo ti; garaan koo isa amanata; anis gargaarsa argadheera. Garaan koo baayʼee gammada; anis faarfannaadhaan isa nan galateeffadha.
8 The LORD is the strength of His people, a stronghold of salvation for His anointed.
Waaqayyo jabina saba isaa ti; dibamaa isaatiifis daʼoo fayyinaa ti.
9 Save Your people and bless Your inheritance; shepherd them and carry them forever.
Saba kee fayyisi; dhaala kees eebbisi; tiksee isaanii taʼii bara baraan isaan baadhu.
