28 Inni kophaa isaa calʼisee haa taaʼu; Waaqayyo isa baachiseeraatii.

29 Amma illee abdiin ni jira taʼaatii, inni fuula isaa awwaara keessa haa suuqqatu.

33 Inni itti yaadee rakkina yookaan dhiphina sanyii namaatti hin fiduutii.
CAPH. For he has not humiliated from his heart, nor has he thrown aside the sons of men,
34 Yommuu hidhamtoonni biyyattii keessa jiran hundi miilla jalatti dhidhiitaman,
LAMED. as if to crush under his feet all the prisoners of the land,
35 yommuu fuula Waaqa Waan Hundaa Olii duratti mirgi nama tokkoo dhiibamu,
LAMED. as if to turn aside the judgment of a man in the sight of the presence of the Most High,
36 yommuu murtiin qajeelaan dhabamu, Gooftaan waan akkasii hin arguu?
LAMED. as if to pervert a man in his judgment: the Lord does not do this.
37 Yoo Gooftaan ajajuu baate eenyutu dubbatee waan sana fiixaan baasuu dandaʼa?
