3 warri inni biyya gara garaatii, baʼaa fi lixa biiftuutii, kaabaa fi kibbaa walitti qabe waan kana haa dubbatan.
and gathered from the lands, from east and west, from north and south.
4 Isaan keessaa tokko tokko gammoojjii goggogaa keessa jooran; magaalaa keessa jiraachuu dandaʼanis hin arganne.
Some wandered in desert wastelands, finding no path to a city in which to dwell.
5 Isaan ni beelaʼan; ni dheebotanis; lubbuun isaaniis isaan keessatti gaggabde.

10 Isaan keessaas tokko tokko sibiilaan hidhamanii rakkachaa, dukkanaa fi dimimmisa keessa jiraatan;
Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, prisoners in affliction and chains,
11 isaan dubbii Waaqaatti fincilanii gorsa Waaqa Waan Hundaa Oliis tuffataniiruutii.
because they rebelled against the words of God and despised the counsel of the Most High.
12 Kanaafuu inni dabarsee hojii dadhabsiisaatti isaan kenne; isaanis ni gufatan; namni isaan gargaaru tokko iyyuu hin argamne.
He humbled their hearts with hard labor; they stumbled, and there was no one to help.

19 Rakkina isaanii keessatti Waaqayyotti iyyatan; innis dhiphina isaanii keessaa isaan baase.
Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He saved them from their distress.
20 Inni dubbii isaa ergee isaan fayyise; awwaala keessaas isaan baase.
He sent forth His word and healed them; He rescued them from the Pit.
21 Isaan sababii jaalala isaa kan hin geeddaramne sanaatii fi hojii dinqii kan inni ilmaan namaatiif hojjete sanaatiif, Waaqayyoon haa galateeffatan!

They rejoiced in the silence, and He guided them to the harbor they desired.

33 Innis lagoota gammoojjii taasisee burqaawwan bishaanis gara lafa goggogaatti geeddare;
He turns rivers into deserts, springs of water into thirsty ground,
34 sababii hammina warra achi jiraataniitiif, biyya midhaan baasu lafa soogiddaa taasise.

35 Gammoojjii kuusaa bishaaniitti, lafa goggogaa immoo burqaa bishaaniitti geeddare;

He causes the hungry to settle there, that they may establish a city in which to dwell.
37 Lafa qotiisaa isaanii facaafatanii wayiniis ni dhaabbatan; midhaan gaariis argatan.
They sow fields and plant vineyards that yield a fruitful harvest.
38 Inni isaan eebbise; baayʼina isaaniis akka malee dabale; akka loon isaanii lakkoobsaan yarachaa deeman hin goone.
He blesses them, and they multiply greatly; He does not let their herds diminish.
39 Yeroo isaan cunqursaadhaan, rakkinaa fi gaddaan xinnaatanii gad deebiʼanitti,
When they are decreased and humbled by oppression, evil, and sorrow,

43 Ogeessi kam iyyuu waan kana yaadatti haa qabatu; jaalala Waaqayyoo kan dhuma hin qabne sana illee haa hubatu.
Let him who is wise pay heed to these things and consider the loving devotion of the LORD.
