< Psalms 6 >
1 For the music director. To be accompanied by stringed instruments, according to the sheminith. A psalm of David. Lord, please don't condemn me because you're angry with me; please don't punish me because you're angry with me!
Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Baganaadhaan faarfatamu. Faarfannaa Daawit kan akka sirna Shamiiniitiitti faarfatamu. Yaa Waaqayyo aarii keetiin na hin hifatin; yookaan dheekkamsa keetiin na hin adabin.
2 Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am weak; heal me, Lord, for I am sick to the bone.
Naa gameeraatii yaa Waaqayyo naaf araarami; lafeen koos jeeqameeraatii yaa Waaqayyo na fayyisi.
3 I'm shaking all over in fear. How long will it be, Lord, before you do something?
Lubbuun koo akka malee jeeqameera; kun hamma yoomiitti? Yaa Waaqayyo, hamma yoomiitti?
4 Turn, Lord, and rescue me! Save me because of your trustworthy love!
Yaa Waaqayyo, deebiʼiitii lubbuu koo oolchi; araara keetiif jedhiitii na fayyisi.
5 For no one remembers you when they're dead. Who is able to praise you from the grave? (Sheol )
Namni duʼe si hin yaadatu. Siiʼool keessatti eenyutu si galateeffata? (Sheol )
6 My groaning has exhausted me. Every night I soak my bed with my crying; I drench my couch with my tears.
Ani aaduu kootiin bututeera. Halkan hunda booʼichaan siree koo nan dhiqa; imimmaaniinis iddoo ciisichaa koo nan tortorsa.
7 With all my crying I can hardly see; my eyes grow weak because of the trouble my enemies cause me.
Iji koo gaddaan fajajeera; sababii diinota koo hundaatiifis dadhabeera.
8 Leave me alone, all you people who do evil, for the Lord has heard me crying!
Warri hamaa hojjettan hundinuu narraa fagaadhaa; Waaqayyo sagalee booʼicha koo dhagaʼeeraatii.
9 The Lord has heard me calling out for help; the Lord answers my prayer.
Waaqayyo waammata koo dhagaʼeera; Waaqayyo kadhannaa koo ni fudhata.
10 All who hate me will be shamefully defeated and terrified; they will run away in disgrace.
Diinonni koo hundinuu haa qaanaʼan; akka malees haa rifatan; qaanii tasaatiinis of irra haa garagalan.
