Faarfannaa 104
1 Yaa lubbuu ko, Waaqayyoon eebbisi. Yaa Waaqayyo, Waaqa ko, ati akka malee guddaa dha; miidhaginaa fi surraa uffatteerta.
Bless, O my soul, Yahweh, —Yahweh, my God, thou art exceedingly great, With honour and majesty, hast thou clothed thyself,
2 Ati akkuma wayyaa ifa uffatta; samiiwwanis akkuma dunkaanaa diriirsita.
Putting on light, as a robe, Stretching out the heavens, as a curtain;
3 Dareeraa diinqa isaa bishaanota irra buufta. Duumessoota gaarii isaa godhata; qoochoo bubbee yaabbattee deema.
Building, in the waters, his upper chambers, —Who maketh clouds his chariot, Who passeth along on the wings of the wind;
4 Inni ergamoota isaa hafuurota, tajaajiltoota isaa immoo arraba ibiddaa godha.
Making His messengers, winds, His attendants, a flaming fire;
5 Inni lafa hundee ishee irra dhaabeera; isheenis gonkumaa hin sochootu.
He hath fixed the earth on its foundations, It is not to be shaken, to times age-abiding and beyond.
6 Ati akkuma wayyaatti tuujubaan ishee haguugde; bishaanonnis tulluuwwanii ol dhaabatan.
With the resounding deep—as a garment, hast thou covered it, Above the mountains, stand the waters;
7 Ati ifannaan bishaanonni baqatan; sagalee qaqawwee keetii dhageenyaan gugatan.
At thy rebuke, they flee, At the voice of thy thunder, they hurry away;
8 Isaan tulluuwwan irraan dhangalaʼan; gara iddoo ati isaanii qopheessitee, gara sululootaatti gad yaaʼan.
Mountains rise, Valleys sink, Unto the place which thou hast fixed for them;
9 Akka isaan deebiʼanii lafa hin haguugneef ati daarii isaan darbuu hin dandeenye isaan dura dhaabde.
Bounds, hast thou set, which they are not to pass over, They are not to return to cover the earth.
10 Akka burqaawwan sululoota keessa yaaʼan goota; isaanis tulluuwwan gidduu yaaʼu.
Who hast sent forth springs, through the torrent-beds, Between the mountains, they flow along;
11 Isaan bineensota bakkee hundaaf bishaan kennu; harroonni diidaas dheebuu baʼu.
They give drink, to every wild beast of the field, The wild asses do break their thirst.
12 Simbirroonni samii bishaanota biratti mandhee ijaarratan; dameewwan gidduutti ni faarfatan.
Over them, the bird of the heavens settleth down, From amidst the foliage, they utter a voice.
13 Inni mana isaa kan olii irraa tulluuwwan bishaan obaafta; laftis ija hojii keetiitiin quufti.
Who watereth the mountains out of his upper chambers, Out of the fruit of thy works, thou satisfiest the earth.
14 Inni lafa irraa nyaata kennuuf jedhee looniif marga, faayidaa namaatiif immoo biqiltuuwwan biqilcha;
Who causeth the grass to shoot forth for the cattle, And the herb, for the service of man, That he may bring forth food out of the earth;
15 akka daadhiin wayinii garaa nama gammachiisu, akka zayitiin fuula nama cululuqsuu fi akka midhaan nama jajjabeessu ni goota.
And, wine, may rejoice the heart of man, Making radiant his well-nourished face, —And, food, may, the heart of man, sustain.
16 Mukkeen Waaqayyoo, birbirsi Libaanoon kan inni dhaabe sun bishaan quufaniiru.
Satisfied are, The trees of Yahweh, The cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted;
17 Simbirroonni achitti mandhee isaanii ijaarratu; huummoonis birbirsa irraa mana qabdi.
Where the birds build their nests, The stork, in the fir-trees, hath her house;
18 Tulluuwwan dhedheeroon daʼoo reʼee diidaa ti; holqi kattaawwanii immoo daʼoo osolee ti.
The high mountains, are for the chamois, The crags, are a refuge for the conies.
19 Inni akka jiʼi waqtiilee gargar qoodu godha; biiftuunis yeroo itti lixxu ni beekti.
He hath made the moon for seasons, And, the sun, knoweth his place for entering in.
20 Ati dukkana uumta; halkanis ni taʼa; bineensonni bosonaa hundis gad yaaʼu.
Thou causest darkness, and it becometh night, Therein, creepeth forth, Every wild beast of the forest;
21 Leenci saafelli waan nyaatu barbaadee aada; nyaata isaas Waaqa bira barbaada.
The young lions, roaring for prey, And seeking, from GOD, their food.
22 Isaan yommuu biiftuun baatutti walitti qabamu; dachaʼaniis goda isaanii keessa ciciisu.
The sun ariseth, they withdraw themselves, And, in their lairs, lay them down.
23 Namni gara hojii isaatti, hamma galgalaattis gara jiruu isaatti ni baʼa.
Man goeth forth to his work, And to his labour, until evening.
24 Yaa Waaqayyo, hojiin kee akkam baayʼee dha! Ati hunda isaanii ogummaadhaan hojjette; laftis uumamawwan keetiin guutamte.
How thy works abound, O Yahweh! All of them—in wisdom, hast thou made, The earth is full of thy possession: —
25 Galaanni guddaa fi balʼaan kun, uumamawwan hamma hin qabneen guutame; kan lubbuu qabeeyyiin gurguddaa fi xixinnoon keessa jiraatan kuunnoo jira.
This sea here, is great and broad on both hands, —Wherein are creeping things, even without number, Living things, small with great;
26 Dooniiwwan as irra deddeebiʼu; lewaataan kan akka inni achi keessa taphatuuf ati uumtes achi jira.
There, ships, sail along, This sea-monster, thou hast formed to sport therein;
27 Akka ati nyaata isaanii yeroo barbaachisuutti isaaniif kennituuf, isaan hundi si eeggatu.
All of them, for thee, do wait, That thou mayest give them their food in its season;
28 Yeroo ati isaaniif kennitutti, isaan walitti qabatu; yeroo ati harka kee balʼiftutti, isaan waan gaarii quufu.
Thou givest unto them, they gather, Thou openest thy hand, they are satisfied with good.
29 Yeroo ati fuula kee dhokfattutti, isaan ni naʼu; yeroo ati hafuura isaanii fudhattutti, isaan duʼanii biyyootti deebiʼu.
Thou hidest thy face, they are dismayed, Thou withdrawest their spirit, They cease to breathe, And, unto their own dust, do they return:
30 Yeroo ati Hafuura kee ergitutti isaan ni uumamu; atis fuula lafaa ni haaromsita.
Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created, And thou renewest the face of the ground.
31 Ulfinni Waaqayyoo bara baraan haa jiraatu; Waaqayyo hojii isaatti haa gammadu;
Be thy glory, O Yahweh, to times age-abiding, Let Yahweh rejoice in his own works:
32 inni ilaallaan lafti hollatte; inni tuqnaan tulluuwwan keessaa aarrii baʼe.
Who looketh at the earth, and it trembleth, He toucheth the mountains, and they smoke.
33 Bara jireenya koo guutuu ani Waaqayyoof nan faarfadha; hamma lubbuun koo jirtuttis faarfannaadhaan Waaqa koo nan galateeffadha.
I will sing to Yahweh, as long as I live! Yea I will touch the strings to my God, while I continue;
34 Irra deddeebiʼee yaaduun koo isa haa gammachiisu; ani Waaqayyotti nan gammadaatii.
Pleasing unto him, be my (meditation) I, will rejoice in Yahweh.
35 Cubbamoonni lafa irraa haa badan; hamoonnis siʼachi hin jiraatin. Yaa lubbuu koo Waaqayyoon eebbisi. Haalleluuyaa.
Sinners shall be consumed out of the earth And, the lawless, no more, shall exist, —Bless, O my soul, Yahweh, Praise ye Yah!
