Psalms 71
1 In you, LORD, I take refuge. Never let me be disappointed.
Yaa Waaqayyo, ani kooluu sitti galeera; ati gonkumaa na hin qaanessin.
2 Deliver me in your righteousness, and rescue me. Turn your ear to me, and save me.
Qajeelummaa keetiin na baasi; na oolchis; gurra kee gara kootti qabi; na fayyisis.
3 Be to me a rock of refuge to which I may always go. Give the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.
Ati kattaa ani kooluu itti galu, iddoo ani yeroo hunda itti baqadhu naa taʼi; ati waan kattaa koo fi daʼoo koo taateef, na baraaruuf ajaja kenni.
4 Rescue me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
Yaa Waaqa ko, harka nama hamaa, qabaa nama jalʼaatii fi gara jabeessaa keessaa na baasi.
5 For you are my hope, LORD; my confidence from my youth.
Yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa, ati abdii kootii; ijoollummaa kootii kaaftees ati Waaqa ani amanadhuu dha.
6 I have relied on you from the womb. From my mother's womb you are my strength. I will always praise you.
Ani gaafan dhaladhee jalqabee sitti irkadheera; gadameessa haadha koo keessaas situ na baase. Ani yeroo hunda sin galateeffadha.
7 I am a marvel to many, but you are my strong refuge.
Ani namoota baayʼeedhaaf mallattoo taʼeera; ati garuu daʼoo koo isa jabaa dha.
8 My mouth shall be filled with your praise, with your honor all the day.
Afaan koo guyyaa guutuu, galataa fi ulfina keetiin guutama.
9 Do not reject me in my old age. Do not forsake me when my strength fails.
Yeroo ani dulloomutti ati na hin gatin; yeroo humni koo dhumuttis na hin dhiisin.
10 For my enemies talk about me. Those who watch for my soul conspire together,
Diinonni koo natti mariʼatuutii; warri na ajjeesuuf riphanii eeggatanis walii wajjin natti mariʼatu.
11 saying, "God has forsaken him. Pursue and take him, for no one will rescue him."
Isaanis, “Waaqni isa dhiiseera; namni isa oolchu tokko iyyuu hin jiruutii faana buʼaatii qabaa” jedhu.
12 God, do not be far from me. My God, hurry to help me.
Yaa Waaqi, narraa hin fagaatin; yaa Waaqa ko, na gargaaruuf dafii kottu.
13 Let my accusers be put to shame and consumed. Let them be covered with disgrace and scorn who want to harm me.
Warri na himatan qaanaʼanii haa badan; warri na miidhuu barbaadanis tuffii fi salphina haa uffatan.
14 But I will always hope, and will add to all of your praise.
Ani garuu yeroo hundumaa abdii qaba; ittuma caalchisees sin galateeffadha.
15 My mouth will tell about your righteousness, and of your salvation all day, though I do not know its full measure.
Ani yoo hammam akka inni gaʼu beekuu baadhe illee, afaan koo waaʼee qajeelummaa keetiitii fi waaʼee fayyisuu keetii guyyaa guutuu ni odeessa.
16 I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord GOD. I will make mention of your righteousness, even of yours alone.
Yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa, ani dhufee hojii kee humna qabeessa sana nan odeessa; ani qajeelummaa kee qofa labsa.
17 God, you have taught me from my youth. Until now, I have declared your wondrous works.
Yaa Waaqi, ati ijoollummaa kootii jalqabdee na barsiifteerta; anis hamma harʼaatti hojii kee dinqisiisaa sana nan labsa.
18 Yes, even when I am old and gray-haired, God, do not forsake me, until I have declared your strength to the next generation, your might to everyone who is to come.
Yaa Waaqayyo, yeroo ani dulloomee mataan koo arrii taʼutti illee, hamma ani humna kee dhaloota kanatti, jabina kees dhaloota dhufuuf jiru hundatti labsuutti, ati na hin dhiisin.
19 Your righteousness also, God, reaches to the heavens; you have done great things. God, who is like you?
Yaa Waaqi, qajeelummaan kee samiiwwan bira gaʼa; ati waan gurguddaa hojjetteerta; yaa Waaqi, kan akka keetii eenyu?
20 You, who have shown us many and bitter troubles, you will let me live. You will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.
Ati rakkinaa fi dhiphina baayʼee na argisiifteerta; taʼus jireenya koo deebiftee ni haaromsita, qilee lafaa keessaas deebiftee ol na baafta.
21 Increase my honor, and comfort me again.
Ulfina koo ni guddifta; amma illee na jajjabeessita.
22 I will also praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, my God. I sing praises to you with the lyre, Holy One of Israel.
Yaa Waaqa ko, ani amanamummaa keetiif, kiraaraan sin faarfadha; Yaa Qulqullicha Israaʼel ani kiraaraan faarfannaa galataa siif faarfadha.
23 My lips shall shout for joy. My soul, which you have redeemed, sings praises to you.
Yommuu ani faarfannaa galataa siif faarfadhutti, hidhiin koo, lubbuun koo kan ati furtes guddisanii ni ililchu.
24 My tongue will also talk about your righteousness all day long, for they are disappointed, and they are confounded, who want to harm me.
Warri na miidhuu barbaadan, waan qaanaʼanii burjaajaʼaniif arrabni koo guyyaa guutuu qajeelummaa kee odeessa.
