Psalms 38
1 A Psalm of David, to bring to remembrance. O LORD, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaadannoodhaaf. Yaa Waaqayyo, aarii keetiin na hin ifatin yookaan dheekkamsa keetiin na hin adabin.
2 For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.
Xiyyooliin kee na waraananiiru; harki kees akka malee natti ulfaateera.
3 [There is] no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither [is there any] rest in my bones because of my sin.
Sababii dheekkamsa keetiitiif dhagni koo fayyaa dhabeera; sababii cubbuu kootiifis lafeen koo nagaa dhabeera.
4 For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
Cubbuun koo na liqimseeraatii; akkuma baʼaa baatamuu hin dandaʼamne tokkoottis natti ulfaateera.
5 My wounds stink [and] are corrupt because of my foolishness.
Sababii gowwummaa kootiitiif, madaan koo malaa naqate; ni ajaaʼes.
6 I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
Ani gad nan qabame; gadis nan cabe; guyyaa guutuus gaddaan oola.
7 For my loins are filled with a loathsome [disease: ] and [there is] no soundness in my flesh.
Dugdi koo na bobaʼa; dhagni koos fayyaa hin qabu.
8 I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
Ani laafeera; akka malees bututeera; garaan koo dhiphatee ani aadaan jira.
9 Lord, all my desire [is] before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.
Yaa Gooftaa, hawwiin koo hundinuu fuula kee duratti beekamaa dha; argansuun koo si duraa hin dhokatu.
10 My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
Lapheen koo ni dhaʼatti; jilbis na laafeera; ifni ija kootiis badeera.
11 My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
Michoonni koo fi miiltoon koo sababii madaa kootiitiif narraa hiiqan; firoonni koos narraa fagaatanii dhadhaabatu.
12 They also that seek after my life lay snares [for me: ] and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.
Warri lubbuu koo galaafachuu barbaadan kiyyoo naa kaaʼaniiru; warri na miidhuu barbaadanis waaʼee badiisa kootii dubbatu; guyyaa guutuus hammina natti yaadu.
13 But I, as a deaf [man], heard not; and [I was] as a dumb man [that] openeth not his mouth.
Ani garuu akkuma duudaa dhagaʼuu hin dandeenyee, akkuma arrab-didaa dubbachuu hin dandeenyeetii.
14 Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth [are] no reproofs.
Ani akka nama dhagaʼuu hin dandeenyee, akkuma nama afaan isaa deebii kennuu hin dandeenyees taʼeera.
15 For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
Yaa Waaqayyo, ani sin eeggadha; yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa ko, ati deebii naa kennita.
16 For I said, [Hear me], lest [otherwise] they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify [themselves] against me.
Ani, “Akka diinonni koo natti gammadan yookaan akka isaan yeroo miilli koo mucucaatutti natti of jajan hin eeyyamin” jedheeraatii.
17 For I [am] ready to halt, and my sorrow [is] continually before me.
Ani kufuu gaʼeeraatii; dhukkubbiin koos takkumaa na hin dhiifne.
18 For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.
Ani balleessaa koo nan himadha; sababii cubbuu kootiitiifis nan gadda.
19 But mine enemies [are] lively, [and] they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
Warri akkasumaan diinota koo taʼan jajjaboo dha; warri sababii malee na jibbanis hedduu dha.
20 They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow [the thing that] good [is].
Warri qooda waan gaarii waan hamaa naa deebisan diinota koo ti; ani waan gaarii duukaa nan buʼaatii.
21 Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.
Yaa Waaqayyo, ati na hin gatin; yaa Waaqa ko, narraa hin fagaatin.
22 Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
Yaa Gooftaa, yaa fayyisaa ko, na gargaaruudhaaf ariifadhu!
