Dura Buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqayyo, namoota hamoo jalaa na baasi; namoota finciltoota

2 which to devise: devise distress: evil in/on/with heart all day: always to quarrel battle

warra garaa isaanii keessatti hammina yaadanii guyyaa hunda waraana kaasan narraa eegi.

3 to sharpen tongue their like serpent rage viper underneath: under lips their (Selah)

Isaan arraba isaanii akkuma bofaa qaratu; hadhaan buutii hidhii isaanii jala jira.

4 to keep: guard me LORD from hand wicked from man violence to watch me which to devise: devise to/for to thrust beat my

Yaa Waaqayyo, harka hamootaa narraa eegi; namoota finciltoota warra miilla koo kiyyootti galchuu yaadan jalaa na baasi.

5 to hide proud snare to/for me and cord to spread net to/for hand: to track snare to set: make to/for me (Selah)

Of tuultonni dhoksanii kiyyoo na dura kaaʼaniiru; ribuu kiyyoo isaanii diriirsaniiru; karaa koo irras kiyyoo isaanii kaaʼaniiru.

Yaa Waaqayyo, akka fedhiin hamootaa fiixaan baʼu hin godhin; akka isaan of hin tuulleef, akka karoorri isaanii milkaaʼu hin godhin.

9 head surrounds my trouble lips their (to cover them *Q(K)*)

Mataan warra na marsanii, hammina afaan isaaniitii baʼuun haa haguugamu.

Barbadaan ibiddaa isaan irra haa buʼu; isaan ibiddatti illee haa darbataman; akka lammata hin kaaneefis boolla qileetti haa darbataman.

11 man tongue not to establish: establish in/on/with land: country/planet man violence bad: evil to hunt him to/for thrust

13 surely righteous to give thanks to/for name your to dwell upright with face your

Dhugumaan namni qajeelaan maqaa kee ni galateeffata; namni tolaanis fuula kee dura ni jiraata.
