Psalms 56
1 God, be merciful to me because men have harassed me; all day my enemies pursue me.
Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Yeedaloo “Gugee Qilxuu Fagoo irraa” jedhuun faarfatame. Miiktaamii Faarfannaa Daawit. Innis yeroo Filisxeemonni Gaati keessatti isa qaban faarfate. Yaa Waaqi na maari; diinonni koo akka malee na ariʼu; guyyaa guutuus na cunqursu.
2 My enemies harass me all day long; there are many of them who proudly attack me.
Diinonni koo guyyaa guutuu na gaadu; namoonni baayʼeen of tuulummaadhaan na lolu.
3 But whenever I am afraid, I trust in you.
Ani yommuun sodaadhutti sin amanadha.
4 God, I praise/thank you because you do what you have promised; I trust in you, and then I am not afraid. Ordinary humans certainly cannot [RHQ] harm me!
Waaqa ani dubbii isaa jajadhu, Waaqa nan amanadha; homaa hin sodaadhu. Namni duʼa hin oolle maal na gochuu dandaʼa?
5 All day long my enemies claim that I said things that I did not say (OR, try to destroy what I am doing); they are always thinking of ways to harm me.
Isaan guyyaa guutuu dubbii koo micciiru; na miidhuudhaafis yeroo hunda natti malatu.
6 In order to cause trouble for me, they hide and watch everything that I do, waiting for [an opportunity] to kill me [MTY].
Isaan ni mariʼatu; ni riphus; lubbuu koo galaafachuuf jedhanii tarkaanfii koo eeggatu.
7 So, God, punish them for the wicked things that they are doing; show that you are angry by defeating those people!
Sababii hammina isaaniitiif akka isaan miliqan hin godhin; yaa Waaqi, dheekkamsa keetiin saboota gad deebisi.
8 You have counted [all] the times that I have been wandering alone/distressed; [it is as though] you have put [all] my tears in a bottle [in order that you can see how much I have cried]. [You have counted my tears and written] the number in your book.
Gadadamu koo galmeessi; imimmaan koos kitaaba kee keessatti barreessi; isaan galmee kee keessa jiru mitii?
9 When I call out to you, [my] God, my enemies will be defeated; I know that will happen, because you are fighting for me.
Yommuu ani gargaarsaaf si waammadhutti, diinonni koo dugda duuba deebiʼu. Anis kanaan akka Waaqni na wajjin jiru beeka.
10 I praise/thank you that you do what you have promised; Yahweh, I [will always] praise you for that [DOU].
Waaqa ani dubbii isaa jajadhu, Waaqayyo ani dubbii isaa jajadhu,
11 I trust in you, and as a result, I will not be afraid. I know that humans cannot really [RHQ] harm me!
Waaqa nan amanadha; ani homaa hin sodaadhu. Namni maal na gochuu dandaʼa?
12 I will bring to you the offering that I promised; I will bring an offering to you to thank you,
Yaa Waaqi wareegni kee narra jira; aarsaa galataas siif nan dhiʼeessa.
13 because you have rescued me from being killed; you have kept me from stumbling. As a result, I will continue to live in your presence in the light that [shines on those who are still] alive (OR, in the light that [enables people to] live).
Akka ani fuula Waaqaa dura, ifa jireenyaa keessa deddeebiʼuuf, ati lubbuu koo duʼa jalaa, miilla koos gufachuu oolchiteertaatii.
