Psalms 81
1 To the Chief Musician. On "the Gittith." Asaph’s. Shout ye for joy, unto God our strength, Sound the note of triumph, to the God of Jacob;
Dura Buʼaa Faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Asaaf Kan Gitiitiidhaan Faarfatamu. Waaqa jabina nuu taʼeef gammachuudhaan faarfadhaa; Waaqa Yaaqoobiitiif gammachuudhaan ililchaa!
2 Raise a melody, and strike the timbrel, The lyre so sweet, with the harp:
Faarfachuu jalqabaa; dibbees rukutaa; baganaa fi kiraara sagalee gaarii qabu rukutaa.
3 Blow, at the new moon, the horn, At the full moon, for the day of our sacred festival:
Yeroo Baatiin dhalattu, yommuu jiʼi goobanutti, guyyaa ayyaana keenyaa malakata afuufaa;
4 For, a statute to Israel, it is, A regulation, by the God of Jacob;
kun seera Israaʼeliif kenname, ajaja Waaqa Yaaqoob.
5 A testimony in Joseph, he appointed it, When he went forth over the land of Egypt: A language I liked not, used I to hear;
Inni yeroo biyya Gibxi dhaʼuuf baʼetti, waan kana Yoosefiif seera godhee dhaabe. Anis afaan duraan hin beekin tokko dhagaʼe.
6 I took away, from the burden, his shoulder, his hands, from the clay, were set free.
Innis akkana jedhe; “Ani gatiittii isaanii irraa baʼaa buuseera; harki isaanis guuboo baachuu jalaa baʼe.
7 In distress, thou didst cry, and I delivered thee, —I answered thee, within a hiding-place of thunder, I proved thee by the waters of Meribah. (Selah)
Ati dhiphina kee keessatti na waammatte; anis sin oolche; anis lafa bakakkaan itti dhokatu keessaa deebii siifin kenne; bishaan Mariibaa birattis sin qore.
8 Hear, O my people, and I will adjure thee, O Israel, if thou wilt hearken unto me!
“Yaa saba koo dhagaʼi; ani siin akeekkachiisa; yaa Israaʼel ati utuu na dhaggeeffate!
9 There shall not be, within thee, a foreign GOD, —Neither shalt thou bow down to a strange GOD:
Waaqni ormaa tokko iyyuu isin gidduu hin jiraatin; ana malee waaqa biraa hin waaqeffatin.
10 I, Yahweh, am thy God, Who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, —Open wide thy mouth, that I may fill it.
Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa kee, kan Gibxii baasee isin fidee dha. Afaan kee balʼisii banadhu; ani nan guutaa.
11 But my people, hearkened not, unto my voice, Even, Israel, inclined not unto me.
“Sabni koo garuu na hin dhaggeeffanne; Israaʼel anaaf hin bulle.
12 So then I let them go on in the stubbornness of their own heart, They might walk in their own counsels!
Kanaafuu ani akka isaan karaa fedhii isaanii deemaniif dabarsee mata jabina isaaniitti isaan kenne.
13 If, my people, were hearkening unto me, [If, ] Israel, in my ways, would walk,
“Utuu sabni koo na dhaggeeffatee, utuu Israaʼel karaa koo irra deemee jiraatee,
14 Right soon, their foes, would I subdue, And, against their adversaries, would I turn my hand:
ani silaa akkam dafee diinota isaanii jilbeenfachiisee harka koos amajaajota isaaniitti nan kaasa ture!
15 The haters of Yahweh, should come cringing unto him, Then let their own good time be age-abiding!
Warri Waaqayyoon jibban fuula isaa duratti ni gugguufu; adabbiin isaaniis bara baraan itti fufa.
16 Then would he feed them from the marrow of the wheat, Yea, out of the rock—with honey, would I satisfy thee.
Ani garuu qamadii qulqulluu isin soora; damma kattaa keessaa baafames isinan quubsa.”
