Psalms 48
1 A Psalm of praise for the sons of Core on the second [day] of the week. Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in his holy mountain.
Weedduu. Faarfannaa Ilmaan Qooraahi. Magaalaa Waaqa keenyaa keessatti, tulluu isaa qulqulluu irrattis, Waaqayyo guddaa dha; waan hundaa olittis galanni isaaf mala.
2 The city of the great King is well planted [on] the mountains of Sion, with the joy of the whole earth, [on] the sides of the north.
Tulluun Xiyoon gara kaabaatti argama; dheerina isaatiinis ni bareeda. Innis gammachuu addunyaa hundaa ti; magaalaa Mooticha Guddaatis.
3 God is known in her palaces, when he undertakes to help her.
Waaqni daʼannoo ishee keessa jira; inni daʼannoo ishee taʼuu isaa argisiiseera.
4 For, behold the kings of the earth were assembled, they came together.
Mootonni humna walitti daratanii tokkummaadhaan itti qajeelan.
5 They saw, and so they wondered: they were troubled, they were moved.
Isaanis ishee arganii dinqifatan; sodaataniis baqatan.
6 Trembling took hold on them: there were the pangs as of a woman in travail.
Achittis akkuma muddama dubartii ciniinsifattuutti, hollannaan isaan qabate.
7 You will break the ships of Tharsis with a vehement wind.
Atis bubbee baʼa biiftuutiin dooniiwwan Tarshiish caccabsite.
8 As we have heard, so have we also seen, in the city of the Lord of hosts, in the city of our God: God has founded it for ever. (Pause)
Akkuma dhageenye sana, magaalaa Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuu keessatti, magaalaa Waaqa keenyaa keessatti, akkasuma argineerra; Waaqni bara baraan jabeessee ishee dhaaba.
9 We have thought of your mercy, O God, in the midst of your people.
Yaa Waaqayyo, nu mana qulqullummaa kee keessatti, jaalala kee kan hin geeddaramne sana irra deddeebinee yaadna.
10 According to your name, O God, so is also your praise to the ends of the earth: your right hand is full of righteousness.
Yaa Waaqayyo, galanni kee akkuma maqaa keetii handaara lafaa gaʼa; harki kee mirgaas qajeelummaan guutameera.
11 Let mount Sion rejoice, let the daughters of Judaea exult, because of your judgments, O Lord.
Sababii murtii keetiitiif, Tulluun Xiyoon haa gammaddu; intallan Yihuudaas haa ililchan.
12 Go round about Sion, and encompass her: tell you her towers.
Xiyoon irra naannaʼaa; naannoo ishee irras adeemaa; gamoowwan ishees lakkaaʼaa.
13 Mark you well her strength, and observe her palaces; that you may tell the next generation.
Dhaloota itti aanutti akka himtaniif, dallaa eegumsa ishee sirriitti hubadhaa; galma ishees ilaalaa.
14 For this is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide for evermore.
Waaqni kun bara baraa hamma bara baraatti Waaqa keenyaatii; inni hamma dhumaatti illee nu qajeelcha.
