Psalms 56

1 To the Overseer. — 'On the Dumb Dove far off.' — A secret treasure of David, in the Philistines' taking hold of him in Gath. Favour me, O God, for man swallowed me up, All the day fighting he oppresseth 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 Mine enemies have swallowed up all the day, For many [are] fighting against me, O most High,

Diinonni koo guyyaa guutuu na gaadu; namoonni baayʼeen of tuulummaadhaan na lolu.

3 The day I am afraid I am confident toward Thee.

Ani yommuun sodaadhutti sin amanadha.

4 In God I praise His word, in God I have trusted, I fear not what flesh doth to me.

Waaqa ani dubbii isaa jajadhu, Waaqa nan amanadha; homaa hin sodaadhu. Namni duʼa hin oolle maal na gochuu dandaʼa?

5 All the day they wrest my words, Concerning me all their thoughts [are] for evil,

Isaan guyyaa guutuu dubbii koo micciiru; na miidhuudhaafis yeroo hunda natti malatu.

6 They assemble, they hide, they watch my heels, When they have expected my soul.

Isaan ni mariʼatu; ni riphus; lubbuu koo galaafachuuf jedhanii tarkaanfii koo eeggatu.

7 By iniquity they escape, In anger the peoples put down, O God.

Sababii hammina isaaniitiif akka isaan miliqan hin godhin; yaa Waaqi, dheekkamsa keetiin saboota gad deebisi.

8 My wandering Thou hast counted, Thou — place Thou my tear in Thy bottle, Are they not in Thy book?

Gadadamu koo galmeessi; imimmaan koos kitaaba kee keessatti barreessi; isaan galmee kee keessa jiru mitii?

9 Then turn back do mine enemies in the day I call. This I have known, that God [is] for me.

Yommuu ani gargaarsaaf si waammadhutti, diinonni koo dugda duuba deebiʼu. Anis kanaan akka Waaqni na wajjin jiru beeka.

10 In God I praise the word, In Jehovah I praise the word.

Waaqa ani dubbii isaa jajadhu, Waaqayyo ani dubbii isaa jajadhu,

11 In God I trusted, I fear not what man doth to me,

Waaqa nan amanadha; ani homaa hin sodaadhu. Namni maal na gochuu dandaʼa?

12 On me, O God, [are] Thy vows, I repay thank-offerings to Thee.

Yaa Waaqi wareegni kee narra jira; aarsaa galataas siif nan dhiʼeessa.

13 For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, Dost Thou not my feet from falling? To walk habitually before God in the light of the living!

Akka ani fuula Waaqaa dura, ifa jireenyaa keessa deddeebiʼuuf, ati lubbuu koo duʼa jalaa, miilla koos gufachuu oolchiteertaatii.
