Psalms 55
1 “To the chief musician on Neginoth, a Maskil of David.” Give ear, O God, to my prayer, and hide not thyself from my supplication.
Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Miʼa ribuutiin. Maskiilii Daawit. Yaa Waaqi, kadhannaa koo dhagaʼi; waammata koo jalaas hin didin.
2 Listen unto me, and answer me: I mourn in my grief, and moan;
Na dhagaʼiitii deebii naa kenni; komiin koo na dhiphisa; anis nagaa dhabeera.
3 Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked; for they cast wrong upon me, and in wrath they attack me.
Sagalee diinaatiin, cunqursa namoota hamoos dhufe; isaan dhiphina natti fiduutii; aariidhaanis na jibbu.
4 My heart is sorely pained within me, and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.
Lapheen koo na keessatti dhiphatte; sodaan duʼaas na qabate.
5 Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and shuddering hath covered me.
Sodaa fi hollannaan natti dhufeera; naasuunis na fudhateera.
6 And I said, Oh that some one would give me wings like a dove! I would fly away and dwell [quietly].
Anis akkana nan jedhe; “Utuu ani akkuma gugee qoochoo qabaadhee! Silaa asii barrisee nan boqodhan ture.
7 Lo, I would flee far away, I would spend my night in the wilderness. (Selah)
Silaa fagootti baqadhee gammoojjii keessa nan bubbula ture;
8 I would prepare hastily a refuge for me from the sweeping wind [and] from storm.
silaa bubbee hamaa fi qilleensa jabaa irraa fagaadhee gara iddoo boqonnaa kootti nan ariifadhan ture.”
9 Destroy, O Lord, divide their tongue; for I have seen violence and strife in the city;
Yaa Gooftaa, namoota hamoo burjaajessi; dubbii isaaniis waliin dhaʼi; ani magaalaa keessatti goolii fi lola argeeraatii.
10 Day and night do these encompass it upon her walls: and wrong and trouble are in her midst.
Isaan halkanii guyyaa ol baʼanii dallaa ishee irra naannaʼu; jalʼinnii fi rakkinni ishee keessa jira.
11 Mischief is in her midst: guile and deceit depart not from her streets.
Ishee keessa badiisatu jira; nama cunqursuu fi gowwoomsuun daandii ishee irraa hin dhabamu.
12 For it is not an enemy that reproached me; then I could bear it: not he that hateth me hath magnified himself against me; then I would have hidden myself from him;
Utuu diinni na arrabsee, silaa obsuu nan dandaʼa ture; utuu amajaajiin natti kaʼee, silaa jalaa dhokachuu nan dandaʼa ture.
13 But it is thou, a man my equal, my guide, and my acquaintance;
Garuu siʼi namuma akka kootii, hiriyaa koo, michuu koo kan natti dhiʼaatutu waan kana godhe.
14 So that we took sweet secret counsel together, and walked unto the house of God in tumultuous company.
Tokkummaadhaan mana Waaqaa walii wajjin deemne; haasaa miʼaawaas walii wajjin haasofne.
15 Let him dispense death over them; let them go down alive into the nether world; for evil is in their dwelling, in the midst of them. (Sheol h7585)
Duuti tasa isaanitti haa dhufu; utuma lubbuudhaan jiranuu siiʼool keessa haa buʼan; hamminni mana isaaniitii fi garaa isaanii keessa jiraattii. (Sheol h7585)
16 I, however, will call on God: and the Lord will save me.
Ani garuu Waaqa nan waammadha; Waaqayyos jalaa na baasa.
17 At evening and morning and noon will I make my complaint and moan: and he heareth my voice.—
Ani galgala, ganamaa fi waareetti dhiphinaan nan iyya; innis sagalee koo ni dhagaʼa.
18 He delivereth my soul in peace from the battle against me; for in multitudes are they [contending] with me.
Yoo namni baayʼeen anaan morme illee, inni waraana natti kaʼe jalaa miidhaa malee na baasa.
19 God will hear, and humble them—yea, he that sitteth enthroned from the oldest time Selah—those who dread no changes, and fear not God.
Waaqni inni durumaa jalqabee teessoo irra jiru sun, Namoota karaa isaanii hin geeddaranne, kanneen Waaqa hin sodaanne ni dhagaʼa; isaan qaanessas.
20 He stretcheth out his hands against those at peace with him: he violateth his covenant.
Hiriyaan koo michoota isaatti harka isaa ol fudhate; kakuu isaa illee ni cabse.
21 The creamy words of his mouth are smooth, yet there is war [in] his heart; his words are softer than oil, yet are they drawn swords.
Dubbiin isaa akkuma dhadhaa ti; nama hin quuqu; garaa isaa keessa garuu lolatu jira; dubbiin isaa zayitii caalaa lallaafa; garuu goraadee luqqifamee dha.
22 Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he will sustain thee: he will never suffer the righteous to be moved.
Yaaddoo kee Waaqayyotti kennadhu; inni si jiraachisa; namni qajeelaan akka jeqamus hin godhu.
23 But thou, O God, thou wilt bring them down into the pit of destruction: let not the men of blood and deceit live out half their days; but I will indeed trust in thee.
Yaa Waaqayyo, ati garuu namoota hamoo boolla badiisaa keessa ni buufta; warri dhiiga dhangalaasanii fi gowwoomsitoonni, walakkaa bara jireenya isaanii iyyuu hin jiraatan. Ani garuu sin amanadha.
