Psalms 139
1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known [me].
Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqayyo, ati na qorteerta; na beekteertas.
2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
Ati yeroo ani gad taaʼuu fi yeroo ani ol kaʼu ni beekta; yaada koos fagootti hubatta.
3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted [with] all my ways.
Deemuu koo fi ciisuu koo addaan baaftee beekta; karaa koo hundas beekta.
4 For [there is] not a word in my tongue, [but], lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.
Yaa Waaqayyo, akka dubbiin tokko iyyuu arraba koo hin jirre, ati guutumaan guutuutti ni beekta.
5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
Ati duraa fi duubaan na marsiteerta; harka kees narra keesseerta.
6 [Such] knowledge [is] too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot [attain] unto it.
Beekumsi akkanaa anaaf akka malee dinqii dha; hubachuufis akka malee narraa fagoo dha.
7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
Hafuura kee biraa ani eessa dhaquun dandaʼa? Fuula kee duraas ani eessatti baqachuun dandaʼa?
8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou [art] there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou [art there]. (Sheol h7585)
Yoo ani samiiwwanitti ol baʼe, ati achi jirta; yoo ani siree koo siiʼool keessa dhaabbadhes, achis ni jirta. (Sheol h7585)
9 [If] I take the wings of the morning, [and] dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
Yoo ani qoochoo ganamaatiin barrisee qarqara galaanaa fagoo irra qubadhe,
10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
achittis harki kee karaa na argisiisa; harki kee mirgaas jabeessee na qaba.
11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.
Yoo ani, “Dhugumaan dukkanni na dhoksa; ifnis naannoo kootti halkan taʼa” jedhe,
12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light [are] both alike [to thee].
dukkanni iyyuu siif dukkana hin taʼu; halkanis akkuma guyyaa ifa; dukkanni siif akkuma ifaatii.
13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.
Ati namummaa koo isa keessaa uumteertaatii; gadameessa haadha koo keessattis na tolchite.
14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully [and] wonderfully made: marvellous [are] thy works; and [that] my soul knoweth right well.
Ani sababii haala sodaachisaa fi dinqisiisaadhaan uumameef sin galateeffadha; hojiin kee dinqisiisaa dha; kanas ani akka gaariittan beeka.
15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, [and] curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
Yeroo ani iddoo dhoksaatti uumame, lafeen koo si duraa hin dhokanne. Yeroo ani dhidhima lafaa keessatti tolfame,
16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all [my members] were written, [which] in continuance were fashioned, when [as yet there was] none of them.
iji kee dhagna koo kan hin tolfamin arge. Guyyoonni duraan dursanii naaf murteeffaman hundi utuu hin jiraatin, kitaaba kee keessatti barreeffamaniiru.
17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
Yaa Waaqi, yaada kee hubachuun akkam ulfaata! Baayʼinni isaas akkam guddaa dha!
18 [If] I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.
Utuu ani isaan lakkaaʼee jiraadhee, silaa lakkoobsi isaanii cirracha irra baayʼata. Ani yeroon dammaqutti, amma iyyuu suma wajjinan jira.
19 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.
Maaloo yaa Waaqi, ati utuu hamoota fixxee! Warri dhiiga namaa dhangalaaftan, narraa fagaadhaa!
20 For they speak against thee wickedly, [and] thine enemies take [thy name] in vain.
Isaan yaada hamaadhaan waaʼee kee dubbatu; diinonni kee akkasumaan maqaa kee dhaʼu.
21 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?
Yaa Waaqayyo, ani warra si jibban hin jibbuu? Warra sitti kaʼanis hin xireeffadhuu?
22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.
Ani hamma dhumaatti isaan jibbeera; akka diina koottis isaan nan heda.
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:
Yaa Waaqi, na sakattaʼi; garaa koos beeki; qoriitii na ilaali; yaada koos beeki.
24 And see if [there be any] wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
Yoo karaan hamminaa na keessa jiraate mee ilaali; karaa bara baraa irras na adeemsisi.
