< Psalms 28 >
1 “Of David.” Unto thee, O Lord, will I call; O my rock, turn not unheeding from me: lest thou turn away silent from me, and I become like those that go down into the pit.
Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqayyo, Kattaa ko, ani sin waammadha; ati na jalaa hin didin. Yoo ati na jalaa didde, ani akka warra boolla buʼanii nan taʼa.
2 Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward the most holy place of thy sanctuary.
Yommuu ani gargaarsaaf si waammadhee harka koo illee gara Iddoo Qulqullummaa kee kan Waan Hundumaa Caalaa Qulqulluu taʼe sanaatti ol kaafadhu, sagalee kadhannaa koo naa dhagaʼi.
3 Snatch me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of injustice, who speak peace with their neighbors, with mischief in their heart.
Namoota hamoo warra jalʼina hojjetan wajjin, warra garaa isaaniitti hammina qabatanii olloota isaanii wajjin garuu nagaa dubbatan wajjin na hin balleessin.
4 Give unto them according to their doing, and according to the evil of their deeds; according to the work of their hands do thou give unto them: bestow their [just] recompense on them.
Akka hojii isaaniitti, akkuma hojii isaanii hamaa sanaattis deebisiif; akkuma hojii harka isaaniitti kenniif; gatii isaaniif malu isaanumatti deebisi.
5 Because they have no regard for the doings of the Lord, nor the works of his hands: may he pull them down, and not build them up.
Sababii isaan hojii Waaqayyoo, yookaan waan harki isaa hojjete hin kabajneef inni isaan diiga; deebisees isaan hin ijaaru.
6 Blessed be the Lord, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
Waaqayyo haa eebbifamu! Inni iyya kadhannaa kootii naa dhagaʼeeraatii.
7 The Lord is my strength and my shield; in him hath my heart trusted, and I am helped, and my heart exulteth; and with my song will I thank him.
Waaqayyo jabina koo fi gaachana koo ti; garaan koo isa amanata; anis gargaarsa argadheera. Garaan koo baayʼee gammada; anis faarfannaadhaan isa nan galateeffadha.
8 The Lord is strength unto them, and he is the fortress of victory of his anointed.
Waaqayyo jabina saba isaa ti; dibamaa isaatiifis daʼoo fayyinaa ti.
9 Help thy people, and bless thy heritage: and feed them, and exalt them unto all eternity.
Saba kee fayyisi; dhaala kees eebbisi; tiksee isaanii taʼii bara baraan isaan baadhu.
