Psalms 40
1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined to me, and heard my cry.
Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Ani obsaan Waaqayyoon nan eeggadhe; innis gara kootti garagalee iyya koo naa dhagaʼe.
2 He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, [and] established my goings.
Inni boolla sodaachisaa keessaa, dhoqqee nama liqimsu keessaas na baase; miilla koo kattaa irra dhaabe; ejjeta koos naa jabeesse.
3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, [even] praise to our God: many shall see [it], and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
Innis faarfannaa haaraa, faarfannaa galataas afaan koo keessa Waaqa keenyaaf kaaʼe. Namoonni baayʼeen arganii Waaqayyo sodaatu; isas ni amanatu.
4 Blessed [is] that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
Namni Waaqayyoon abdatu, kan gara of tuultotaa hin ilaalle, namni warra karaa irraa jalʼatanii waaqota sobaa duukaa buʼinitti hin gara galle eebbifamaa dha.
5 Many, O LORD, my God, [are] thy wonderful works [which] thou hast done, and thy thoughts [which are] toward us, they cannot be reckoned up in order to thee: [if] I would declare and speak [of them], they are more than can be numbered.
Yaa Waaqayyo Waaqa ko, dinqiin ati hojjette baayʼee dha; waan ati nuuf yaadde, namni tokko tokkoon sitti himuu dandaʼu tokko iyyuu hin jiru; yoo ani waaʼee isaanii labsee dubbadhe illee, baayʼinni isaanii hamma hin qabu.
6 Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; my ears hast thou opened: burnt-offering and sin-offering hast thou not required.
Ati aarsaa fi kennaa hin feene; gurra koo garuu naa banteerta; aarsaa gubamuu fi aarsaa cubbuu ati hin barbaanne.
7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book [it is] written of me,
Yeroo sana ani akkana nan jedhe; “Ani kunoo ti; ani dhufeera; waaʼeen koo kitaaba maramaa keessatti barreeffameera.
8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law [is] within my heart.
Yaa Waaqa ko, ani fedhii kee raawwachuutti nan gammada; seerri kee garaa koo keessa jira.”
9 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.
Ani yaaʼii guddaa keessatti qajeelummaa nan labsa; Yaa Waaqayyo, akkuma ati beektu, ani afaan koo hin qabadhu.
10 I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy loving-kindness and thy truth from the great congregation.
Ani qajeelummaa kee garaa koo keessa hin dhoksu; waaʼee amanamummaa keetiitii fi waaʼee fayyisuu keetii nan odeessa; jaalala keetii fi dhugaa kees yaaʼii guddaa duraa hin dhoksu.
11 Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy loving-kindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
Yaa Waaqayyo araara kee na hin dhowwatin; jaalalli keetii fi dhugaan kee yeroo hunda ana haa eegan.
12 For innumerable evils have encompassed me: my iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of my head: therefore my heart faileth me.
Rakkinni hamma hin qabne na marseeraatii; cubbuun koos na liqimseera; arguus dadhabeera; cubbuun koo rifeensa mataa koo caalaa baayʼata; onneen koos na keessatti laafteerti.
13 Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me.
Yaa Waaqayyo, na fayyisuutti gammadi; yaa Waaqayyo, na gargaaruudhaaf dafii kottu.
14 Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.
Warri lubbuu koo galaafachuu barbaadan hundinuu, haa qaanaʼan; haa burjaajaʼanis. Warri badii koo hawwan hundi, qaanaʼanii duubatti haa deebiʼan.
15 Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say to me, Aha, aha.
Warri, “Baga! Baga!” anaan jedhan, qaanii isaaniitiin haa rifatan.
16 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.
Warri si barbaadan hundinuu garuu sitti gammadanii haa ililchan. Warri fayyisuu kee jaallatan yeroo hunda, “Waaqayyo guddaa dha!” haa jedhan.
17 But I [am] poor and needy; [yet] the LORD thinketh upon me: thou [art] my help and my deliverer; make no delay, O my God.
Ani garuu hiyyeessaa fi rakkataa dha; taʼus Gooftaan naaf yaada. Ati gargaarsa koo fi fayyisaa koo ti; yaa Waaqa ko, hin turin.
