< Psalms 58 >

1 For the Leader; Al-tashheth. A Psalm of David; Michtam. Do ye indeed speak as a righteous company? Do ye judge with equity the sons of men?
Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Yeedaloo “Hin balleessin” jedhuun faarfatame. Faarfannaa Daawiti. Miiktaamii. Yaa bulchitoota, isin dhugumaan waan qajeelaa dubbattanii? Nama gidduuttis murtii qajeelaa kennitanii?
2 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh out in the earth the violence of your hands.
Akkas miti; isin garaa keessan keessatti hammina yaaddu; harki keessanis lafa irratti goolii kaasa.
3 The wicked are estranged from the womb; the speakers of lies go astray as soon as they are born.
Namoonni hamoon dhalootumaa kaasanii karaa irraa jalʼatu; gadameessa haadha isaaniitii jalqabniis karaa irraa goranii soba dubbatu.
4 Their venom is like the venom of a serpent; they are like the deaf asp that stoppeth her ear;
Hadhaan isaanii akkuma hadhaa bofaa ti; isaan akkuma buutii duudaa gurra isaa cuqqaalatee
5 Which hearkeneth not to the voice of charmers, or of the most cunning binder of spells.
sagalee nama isa raatessuu yookaan nama waan ittiin isa raatessu hojjetu tokkoo dhagaʼuu diduu ti.
6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth; break out the cheek-teeth of the young lions, O LORD.
Yaa Waaqi ati ilkaan isaanii afaan isaanii keessatti caccabsi; qarriffaa leencotaas daaki, yaa Waaqayyo!
7 Let them melt away as water that runneth apace; when he aimeth his arrows, let them be as though they were cut off.
Isaan akkuma bishaan dhangalaʼee baduutti haa badan; yeroo iddaa futtaasanitti xiyyi isaanii haa doomu.
8 Let them be as a snail which melteth and passeth away; like the untimely births of a woman, that have not seen the sun.
Akkuma ciilalluu yommuu deemu baquutti, akkuma daaʼima utuu yeroon hin gaʼin dhalatuuttis aduu hin argin.
9 Before your pots can feel the thorns, He will sweep it away with a whirlwind, the raw and the burning alike.
Utuu okkoteen keessan ibidda qoraattiitiin hin hoʼin, jiidhaas taʼu gogaan isaanii haxaaʼamanii balleeffamu.
10 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance; he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
Namni qajeelaan yommuu haaloo baʼuu kana argutti ni gammada; miilla isaas dhiiga namoota hamootiin ni dhiqata.
11 And men shall say: 'Verily there is a reward for the righteous; verily there is a God that judgeth in the earth.'
Yommus namoonni akkana ni jedhu; “Dhugumaan nama qajeelaadhaaf badhaasni jira; dhugumaan Waaqni lafa irratti murtii kennu jira.”
