Psalms 120

1 song [the] step to(wards) LORD in/on/with distress [to] to/for me to call: call to and to answer me

Faarfannaa Ol baʼuu. Ani rakkina koo keessatti Waaqayyotti nan iyyadha; innis deebii naa kenna.

2 LORD to rescue [emph?] soul: myself my from lips deception from tongue deceit

Yaa Waaqayyo, afaan sobuu fi arraba nama gowwoomsu jalaa na baasi.

3 what? to give: give to/for you and what? to add to/for you tongue deceit

Yaa arraba gowwoomsituu nana, maaltu siif kennama? Kana caalaas maal godhamta?

4 arrow mighty man to sharpen with coal broom

Inni xiyya loltootaa kan qarameen, barbadaa ibiddaa qacamaatiin si adaba.

5 woe! to/for me for to sojourn Meshech to dwell with tent Kedar

Ani waanan Meshek keessa taaʼee dunkaanota Qeedaar gidduu jiraadhuuf, anaaf wayyoo!

6 many to dwell to/for her soul: myself my with to hate peace

Warra nagaa jibban gidduu, ani yeroo dheeraa jiraadheera.

7 I peace and for to speak: speak they(masc.) to/for battle

Ani nama nagaa barbaadu dha; isaan garuu yeroo ani dubbadhu lolaaf kakaʼan.
