Psalms 90
1 BOOK IV A Prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, Thou hast been our dwelling-place in all generations.
Kadhannaa Musee Nama Waaqaa Sanaa. Yaa Gooftaa, ati dhaloota hunda keessatti iddoo jireenyaa nuu taateerta.
2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever Thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, Thou art God.
Utuu tulluuwwan hin dhalatin yookaan utuu ati lafaa fi addunyaa hin uumin, baraa baraa hamma bara baraatti ati Waaqa.
3 Thou turnest man to contrition; and sayest: 'Return, ye children of men.'
Atis, “Yaa ilmaan namootaa, biyyootti deebiʼaa” jettee namoota biyyootti deebista.
4 For a thousand years in Thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
Fuula kee duratti waggaan kumni tokko, akkuma guyyaa kaleessa darbee ti; yookaan akkuma dabaree eegumsa halkanii tokkoo ti.
5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep; in the morning they are like grass which groweth up.
Ati hirriba duʼaatiin namoota haxooftee balleessita; isaan akkuma marga ganama bayyanatuu ti;
6 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.
margi sun ganama ganama bayyanatu illee galgala galgala garuu coollagee goga.
7 For we are consumed in Thine anger, and by Thy wrath are we hurried away.
Aariin kee nu fixeera; dheekkamsi kees nu naasiseera.
8 Thou hast set our iniquities before Thee, our secret sins in the light of Thy countenance.
Yakka keenya fuula kee dura, cubbuu keenya dhokataa sanas ifa fuula keetii dura keesseerta.
9 For all our days are passed away in Thy wrath; we bring our years to an end as a tale that is told.
Barri keenya hundinuu dheekkamsa keetiin dhumeeraatii; umurii keenyas aaduudhaan fixanna.
10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten, or even by reason of strength fourscore years; yet is their pride but travail and vanity; for it is speedily gone, and we fly away.
Dheerinni bara keenyaa waggaa torbaatama, yoo jabaanne immoo waggaa saddeettama taʼa; kuni iyyuu garri caalaan isaa dadhabbii fi rakkinaan guutameera; inni dafee darbaatii; nus barrifnee ni sokkina.
11 Who knoweth the power of Thine anger, and Thy wrath according to the fear that is due unto Thee?
Humna aarii keetii eenyutu beeka? Dheekkamsi kee akkuma sodaa nu siif qabaachuu qabnu sanaa guddaadhaatii.
12 So teach us to number our days, that we may get us a heart of wisdom.
Akka nu garaa ogummaadhaan guutame qabaannuuf, bara keenya lakkaaʼuu nu barsiisi.
13 Return, O LORD; how long? And let it repent Thee concerning Thy servants.
Yaa Waaqayyo, deebiʼi! Kun hamma yoomiitti taʼa? Tajaajiltoota keetiifis garaa laafi.
14 O satisfy us in the morning with Thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
Akka nu bara keenya guutuu gammannee ililchinuuf, ganama ganama araara keetiin nu quufsi.
15 Make us glad according to the days wherein Thou hast afflicted us, according to the years wherein we have seen evil.
Hamma baayʼina guyyoota ati nu miite sanaa, hamma baayʼina waggoota nu rakkanne sanaas nu gammachiisi.
16 Let Thy work appear unto Thy servants, and Thy glory upon their children.
Hojiin kee tajaajiltoota keetti, ulfinni kees ijoollee isaaniitti haa mulʼifamu.
17 And let the graciousness of the Lord our God be upon us; establish Thou also upon us the work of our hands; yea, the work of our hands establish Thou it.
Eebbi Waaqa keenya Gooftichaa nurra haa buʼu; hojii harka keenyaas jabeessii nuu dhaabi; eeyyee, hojii harka keenyaa jabeessii nuu dhaabi.
