Give thanks to the LORD, call upon His name; make known His deeds among the nations.
2 Isaaf faarfadhaa; faarfannaadhaan isa galateeffadhaa; waaʼee hojii isaa isa dinqisiisaa hundaas odeessaa.

Seek out the LORD and His strength; seek His face always.
5 Dinqii inni hojjete, hojii isaa dinqii sanaa fi murtii inni labse yaadadhaa;
Remember the wonders He has done, His marvels, and the judgments He has pronounced,
6 isin tajaajiltoonni isaa, warri sanyii Abrahaam taatan, isin filatamtoonni isaa, ilmaan Yaaqoobis kana yaadadhaa.

He is the LORD our God; His judgments carry throughout the earth.
8 Inni kakuu isaa bara baraan, waadaa gale sanas dhaloota kumaaf ni yaadata;

“I will give you the land of Canaan as the portion of your inheritance.”
12 Isaan yeroo lakkoobsaan xinnoo turanitti, dhugumaanuu xinnoo fi biyyattii keessattis keessummoota turanitti,

13 sabaa gara sabaatti, mootummaa tokkoo gara mootummaa biraatti jooran.
they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.
14 Inni akka namni tokko iyyuu isaan cunqursu hin eeyyamne; sababii isaaniitiifis akkana jedhee mootota ifate:

15 “Dibamtoota koo hin tuqinaa; raajota koos hin miidhinaa.”
“Do not touch My anointed ones! Do no harm to My prophets!”
16 Inni beela biyyattiitti waame; midhaan nyaataa hundas ni balleesse;

17 innis Yoosef namicha akka garbaatti gurgurame tokko isaan dura erge.
He sent a man before them— Joseph, sold as a slave.

until his prediction came true and the word of the LORD proved him right.
20 Mootiin nama ergee gad isa dhiisise; bulchaan sabaa isa hiiksise.
The king sent and released him; the ruler of peoples set him free.
21 Mootichis mana isaa irratti ajajaa, qabeenya isaa hunda irratti immoo bulchaa isa godhate;
He made him master of his household, ruler over all his substance,
22 kanas akka inni akkuma fedhetti qondaaltota isaa gorsuuf, akka inni maanguddoota isaa ogummaa barsiisuuf godhe.

Then Israel entered Egypt; Jacob dwelt in the land of Ham.
24 Waaqayyo saba isaa akka malee baayʼise; akka isaan amajaajota isaanii caalaa jabaatanis godhe;
And the LORD made His people very fruitful, more numerous than their foes,

Then He struck all the firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their vigor.

41 Innis kattaa bane; bishaanis keessaa gad dhangalaʼe; akkuma bishaan lagaattis gammoojjii keessaa yaaʼe.
He opened a rock, and water gushed out; it flowed like a river in the desert.

43 Inni saba isaa gammachuun, warra isaaf filataman immoo ililleedhaan baaseera;
He brought forth His people with rejoicing, His chosen with shouts of joy.

He gave them the lands of the nations, that they might inherit the fruit of others’ labor,
45 kanas akka isaan sirna isaa eeganii seera isaatiif bulaniif godhe. Haalleluuyaa.
