Psalms 90
1 A Prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, you have been our refuge in all generations.
Kadhannaa Musee Nama Waaqaa Sanaa. Yaa Gooftaa, ati dhaloota hunda keessatti iddoo jireenyaa nuu taateerta.
2 Before the mountains existed, and [before] the earth and the world were formed, even from age to age, You are.
Utuu tulluuwwan hin dhalatin yookaan utuu ati lafaa fi addunyaa hin uumin, baraa baraa hamma bara baraatti ati Waaqa.
3 Turn not man back to [his] low place, whereas you said, Return, you sons of men?
Atis, “Yaa ilmaan namootaa, biyyootti deebiʼaa” jettee namoota biyyootti deebista.
4 For a thousand years in your sight are as the yesterday which 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 Years shall be vanity to them: let the morning pass away as grass.
Ati hirriba duʼaatiin namoota haxooftee balleessita; isaan akkuma marga ganama bayyanatuu ti;
6 In the morning let it flower, and pass away: in the evening let it droop, let it be withered and dried up.
margi sun ganama ganama bayyanatu illee galgala galgala garuu coollagee goga.
7 For we have perished in your anger, and in your wrath we have been troubled.
Aariin kee nu fixeera; dheekkamsi kees nu naasiseera.
8 You have set our transgressions before you: our age is in the light of your countenance.
Yakka keenya fuula kee dura, cubbuu keenya dhokataa sanas ifa fuula keetii dura keesseerta.
9 For all our days are gone, and we have passed away in your wrath: our years have spun out their tale as a spider.
Barri keenya hundinuu dheekkamsa keetiin dhumeeraatii; umurii keenyas aaduudhaan fixanna.
10 [As for] the days of our years, in them are seventy years; and if [men should be] in strength, eighty years: and the greater part of them would be labor and trouble; for weakness overtakes us, and we shall be chastened.
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 knows the power of your wrath?
Humna aarii keetii eenyutu beeka? Dheekkamsi kee akkuma sodaa nu siif qabaachuu qabnu sanaa guddaadhaatii.
12 and [who knows how] to number [his days] because of the fear of your wrath? So manifest your right hand, and those that are instructed in wisdom in the heart.
Akka nu garaa ogummaadhaan guutame qabaannuuf, bara keenya lakkaaʼuu nu barsiisi.
13 Return, O Lord, how long? and be entreated concerning your servants.
Yaa Waaqayyo, deebiʼi! Kun hamma yoomiitti taʼa? Tajaajiltoota keetiifis garaa laafi.
14 We have been satisfied in the morning with your mercy; and we did exult and rejoice:
Akka nu bara keenya guutuu gammannee ililchinuuf, ganama ganama araara keetiin nu quufsi.
15 let us rejoice in all our days, in return for the days wherein you did afflict us, the years wherein we saw evil.
Hamma baayʼina guyyoota ati nu miite sanaa, hamma baayʼina waggoota nu rakkanne sanaas nu gammachiisi.
16 And look upon your servants, and upon your works; and guide their children.
Hojiin kee tajaajiltoota keetti, ulfinni kees ijoollee isaaniitti haa mulʼifamu.
17 And let the brightness of the Lord our God be upon us: and do you direct for us the works of our hands.
Eebbi Waaqa keenya Gooftichaa nurra haa buʼu; hojii harka keenyaas jabeessii nuu dhaabi; eeyyee, hojii harka keenyaa jabeessii nuu dhaabi.
