Psalms 63
1 God, you are the God whom I [worship]. I greatly desire to be with you like [SIL] a person in a dry hot desert greatly desires [some cool water].
Faarfannaa Daawit. Yeroo inni Gammoojjii Yihuudaa keessa turetti. Yaa Waaqi, ati Waaqa koo ti; ani dhugumaan sin barbaadadha; lafa gogaa fi gammoojjii, lafa bishaan hin jirretti, lubbuun koo si dheebotti; foon koos sitti gaggaba.
2 So, I want to see you in your temple; I want to see that you are great and glorious.
Kanaafuu ani iddoo qulqulluu keessattin si arge; humna keetii fi ulfina kees nan ilaale.
3 Your constantly loving [me] is (worth more/more precious) than [my] life, so I [MTY] will [always] praise you.
Waan jaalalli kee jireenya caaluuf, hidhiin koo si jajatti.
4 I will praise you all the time that I live; I will lift up my hands to you while I pray.
Ani hamman jirutti sin eebbisa; maqaa keetiinis harka koo ol nan qabadha.
5 [Knowing you satisfies me more than] [IDM, MET] my eating a very big feast, [so] I will praise you while I sing [MTY] joyful songs.
Lubbuun koo akka nama dhukaa fi cooma quufeetti quufti; afaan koos hidhii ililleetiin si jajata.
6 While I lie on my bed, I think about you. I think/meditate about you all during the night,
Ani siree koo irratti sin yaadadha; halkan guutuus waaʼee kee nan yaada.
7 because you have always helped me, and I sing joyfully knowing that I am protected by you [as a little bird is protected] under [its mother’s] wings [MET].
Waan ati gargaarsa koo taateef, ani gaaddisa qoochoo keetii jalatti gammachuudhaan nan faarfadha.
8 I cling to you; and with your hand/power you protect me.
Lubbuun koo sitti maxxanti; harki kee mirgaa ol na qaba.
9 But those who are trying to kill me will [die and] descend into the place of the dead;
Warri lubbuu koo galaafachuu barbaadan garuu boolla lafaa isa gad fagoo keessa buʼu.
10 they will be killed in battles [MTY] and their [corpses] will be eaten by jackals/wild dogs.
Isaan dabarfamanii goraadeetti kennamu; nyaata waangoos ni taʼu.
11 But I, the king [of Israel], will rejoice in what God has done; and all those who revere and trust God will praise him, but he will not allow liars to say anything.
Mootiin garuu Waaqaatti ni gammada; namni Waaqaan kakatu hundinuu ulfina argata; afaan warra soba dubbatuu immoo ni cufama.
