< Psalms 2 >

1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
Namoonni maaliif akkanumaan malatu? Saboonnis maaliif waan akkanumaan mariʼatu?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
Mootonni lafaa kaʼanii, bulchitoonnis Waaqayyoo fi Masiihii isaatiin mormuuf walitti qabaman;
3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
isaanis, “Kottaa foncaa isaanii of irraa kukkunnaa; hidhaa isaaniis of irraa hiiknee gannaa” jedhu.
4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
Inni samii keessa, teessoo irra taaʼee jiru ni kolfa; Gooftaanis isaanitti qoosa.
5 Then shall he speak to them in his wrath, and trouble them in his great displeasure.
Innis aarii isaatiin isaan ifata; dheekkamsa isaatiinis isaan naasisa;
6 Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
innis, “Ani tulluu koo qulqulluu irra, Xiyoon irra, mootii koo teessifadheera” jedha.
7 I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said to me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
Ani seera Waaqayyoo nan labsa: innis akkana anaan jedhe; “Ati ilma koo ti; ani harʼa si dhalcheera.
8 Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thy inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
Na kadhadhu; ani saboota dhaala kee, handaara lafaas qabeenya kee godhee siifan kenna.
9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.
Ati ulee sibiilaatiin isaan cabsita; akka qodaa supheettis isaan hurreessita.”
10 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
Kanaafuu yaa mootota, qalbeeffadhaa; bulchitoonni lafaas of eeggadhaa.
11 Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
Sodaadhaan Waaqayyoon tajaajilaa; hollachaas gammadaa.
12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
Akka inni hin aarreef, isinis akka karaa irratti hin badneef ilma isaa dhungadhaa; dheekkamsi isaa dafee bobaʼaatii. Warri isatti kooluu galan hundi eebbifamoo dha.
