< Psalms 60 >

1 To the Overseer. — 'Concerning the Lily of Testimony,' a secret treasure of David, to teach, in his striving with Aram-Naharaim, and with Aram-Zobah, and Joab turneth back and smiteth Edom in the valley of Salt — twelve thousand. O God, Thou hadst cast us off, Thou hadst broken us — hadst been angry! — Thou dost turn back to us.
Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Yeedaloo “Daraaraa kakuu” jedhamuun faarfatame. Miiktaamii Daawit. Barsiisuuf. Yeroo inni Arraam Nahaaraayimii fi Arraam Zoobaa lolee fi yeroo Yooʼaabin deebisee warra Edoomii keessaa namoota kuma kudha lama Sulula soogiddaa keessatti fixetti faarfatame. Yaa Waaqi, ati nu gatteerta; nu caccabsiteertas; nutti aarteerta; amma garuu iddootti nu deebisi!
2 Thou hast caused the land to tremble, Thou hast broken it, Heal its breaches, for it hath moved.
Ati lafa sochoofteerta; tarsaaftees afaan bansiifteerta; caccabaa ishees walitti suphi; isheen raafamteertii.
3 Thou hast shewn Thy people a hard thing, Thou hast caused us to drink wine of trembling.
Ati akka sabni kee waan hamaadhaan dhiphatu gooteerta; daadhii wayinii nu gatantarsus nuu kenniteerta.
4 Thou hast given to those fearing thee an ensign. To be lifted up as an ensign Because of truth. (Selah)
Akka isaan iddaa jalaa gara isaatti baqataniif, ati warra si sodaataniif mallattoo kenniteerta.
5 That Thy beloved ones may be drawn out, Save [with] Thy right hand, and answer us.
Akka warri ati jaallattu furamaniif, harka kee mirgaatiin nu oolchi; nu gargaaris.
6 God hath spoken in His holiness: I exult — I apportion Shechem, And the valley of Succoth I measure,
Waaqni iddoo qulqullummaa isaatii akkana jedhee dubbateera; “Ani gammachuudhaan Sheekemin gargar nan qooda; Sulula Sukootis nan safara.
7 Mine [is] Gilead, and mine [is] Manasseh, And Ephraim [is] the strength of my head, Judah [is] my lawgiver,
Giliʼaad kan koo ti; Minaaseenis kan koo ti. Efreem gonfoo sibiilaa koo ti; Yihuudaanis bokkuu mootummaa koo ti.
8 Moab [is] my pot for washing, over Edom I cast my shoe, Shout, concerning me, O Philistia.
Moʼaab caabii dhiqannaa koo ti; Edoom irra kophee koo darbadhee nan buusa; Filisxeem irrattis moʼannaadhaan nan geerara.”
9 Who doth bring me [to] a city of bulwarks? Who hath led me unto Edom?
Eenyutu magaalaa jabeeffamtee ijaaramtetti na fida? Eenyutu Edoomitti na geessa?
10 Is it not Thou, O God? hast Thou cast us off? And dost Thou not go forth, O God, with our hosts!
Yaa Waaqi, kan nu gatte suma mitii? Yaa Waaqi, kan loltoota keenya wajjin baʼuu diddes suma mitii?
11 Give to us help from adversity, And vain [is] the deliverance of man.
Diina keenya of irraa dhowwuu nu gargaar; gargaarsi namaa faayidaa hin qabuutii.
12 In God we do mightily, And He treadeth down our adversaries!
Nu Waaqa wajjin ni moʼanna; innis diinota keenya gad dhidhiita.
