Psalms 17
1 A prayer of David hear! O Yahweh - righteousness pay attention to! cry of entreaty my give ear to! prayer my with not lips of deceit.
Kadhannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqayyo, iyyata ani murtii qajeelaaf iyyadhu dhagaʼi; booʼicha koos dhaggeeffadhu. Kadhannaa koo kan afaan nama hin gowwoomsine keessaa baʼuufis gurra kenni.
2 From to before you judgment my may it come forth eyes your may they see uprightness.
Murtiin koo si biraa haa dhufu; iji kees waan qajeelaa haa argu.
3 You have tested heart my - you have visited night you have tested me not you will find I have resolved not it will transgress mouth my.
Ati yoo garaa koo qorte, halkaniinis yoo na ilaalte, yoo na sakattaates, homaa narratti hin argattu; ani akka afaan koo cubbuu hin hojjenneef kutadheeraatii.
4 To [the] deeds of humankind by [the] word of lips your I I have watched [the] paths of violent person[s].
Waaʼee hojii namootaa immoo ani dubbii afaan keetiitiin karaa gooltotaa irraa of eeggadheera.
5 They have held firm steps my in tracks your not they have been shaken footsteps my.
Tarkaanfiin koo karaa kee irratti cimeera; miilli koos hin mucucaanne.
6 I I call out to you for you will answer me O God incline ear your to me hear utterance my.
Yaa Waaqi, waan ati deebii naa kennituuf ani sin waammadha; gurra kee gara kootti qabiitii kadhannaa koo dhagaʼi.
7 Make wonderful covenant loyalti your O deliverer of [those who] take refuge from [those who] rise up by right [hand] your.
Yaa isa warra diinota isaanii jalaa sitti baqatan harka kee mirgaatiin oolchitu, ati jaalala kee isa hin geeddaramne sana haala dinqisiisaadhaan argisiisi.
8 Keep me like [the] pupil of [the] daughter of an eye in [the] shadow of wings your you will hide me.
Akka agartuu ija keetiitti na eegi; gaaddidduu qoochoo keetiitiinis na dhoksi;
9 From before wicked [people] who they have assailed me enemies my with soul they surround me.
hamoota na dhiphisan jalaa, diinota na ajjeesuuf na marsan jalaa na baasi.
10 Fat their they have closed up mouth their they have spoken with pride.
Isaan garaa isaanii kan namaa hin naane sana ni guduunfu; afaan isaaniis of tuulummaadhaan dubbata.
11 Steps our now (they have surrounded us *Q(K)*) eyes their they set to bend down on the ground.
Isaan faana na dhaʼu; ammas na marsaniiru; lafaan na dhaʼuudhaafis ija babaasu.
12 Likeness his [is] like a lion [which] it longs to tear to pieces and like a young lion [which] sits in hiding places.
Isaan akka leenca waa kukkutachuu kajeeluu ti; akka leenca guddaa riphee waa gaaduu ti.
13 Arise! O Yahweh confront! face his make bow down him deliver! life my from [the] wicked sword your.
Yaa Waaqayyo kaʼi; itti baʼiitii isaan kuffisi; goraadee keetiinis hamoota jalaa na baasi.
14 From men hand your - O Yahweh from men from [the] world [whom] portion their [is] in the life (and treasured [thing] your *Q(K)*) you fill belly their they are satisfied sons and they leave abundance their to children their.
Yaa Waaqayyo, namoota akkanaa jalaa, namoota addunyaa kanaa warra qoodni isaanii jireenyuma ammaa taʼe jalaa harka keetiin na baraari. Garaan isaanii waan ati isaaniif kuufte haa quufu; ijoolleen isaaniis akka malee haa quufan; isaanis waan isaan irraa hafe daaʼimman isaaniitiif haa kaaʼan.
15 I in righteousness I will see face your I will be satisfied when awake likeness your.
Ani garuu qajeelummaadhaan fuula kee nan arga; yommuun dammaquttis ani ulfina kee arguudhaan nan quufa.
