< Psalms 46 >

1 For the music director by the sons of Korah. According to alamoth, a song. God is our protection and our strength; always ready to help when troubles come.
Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Ilmaan Qooraahi. Haala Alaamootiitiin. Waaqni daʼoo fi jabina keenya; inni gargaarsa yeroo hunda rakkina keessatti nu wajjin jiruu dha.
2 So we will not be afraid though the earth shakes, though the mountains fall into the depths of the sea,
Kanaafuu yoo lafti raafamtee tulluuwwanis garaa galaanaa keessa gadi buʼan iyyuu nu hin sodaannu.
3 though the waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble as the waters surge violently! (Selah)
Utuu bishaan isaas huursee hoomachaaʼee tulluuwwanis raafama isaatiin sochoʼan iyyuu nu hin sodaannu.
4 A river flows to bring happiness to those in God's city, the holy place where the Most High lives.
Lagni yaaʼaan isaa magaalaa Waaqaa gammachiisu kan iddoo qulqulluu Waaqni Waan Hundaa Olii jiraatuuf gammachuu kennu tokko jira.
5 God is in the midst of the city; it will never fall. God protects it as soon as it is light.
Waaqni magaalattii keessa jira; isheenis hin raafamtu; ganama barii Waaqni ishee gargaara.
6 Nations are in turmoil, kingdoms collapse. God raises his voice and the earth melts.
Saboonni ni raafaman; mootummoonnis ni kufan; inni sagalee isaa dhageessise; laftis ni baqxe.
7 The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob protects us. (Selah)
Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu nu wajjin jira; Waaqni Yaaqoob daʼoo keenya.
8 Come and see what the Lord has achieved! See the amazing things he has done on the earth!
Kottaa, hojii Waaqayyoo ilaalaa; badiisa inni lafa irratti fides argaa.
9 He stops wars all over the world. He smashes the bow; he breaks the spear; he sets shields on fire.
Inni hamma handaara lafaatti waraana ni balleessa; iddaa ni cabsa; eeboo ni burkuteessa; gaachanas ibiddaan guba.
10 Stop fighting! Recognize I am God! I am the ruler of the nations; I am the ruler of the earth.
“Calʼisaa; akka ani Waaqa taʼes beekaa; ani saboota gidduutti ol ol nan jedha; lafa irrattis ol ol nan jedha.”
11 The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob protects us. (Selah)
Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu nu wajjin jira; Waaqni Yaaqoob daʼoo keenya.
