Faarfannaa 108

1 Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqi, garaan koo hin raafamu; ani nan faarfadha; lubbuu koo guutuudhaanis sin galateeffadha.

My heart is fixed, O God, I will sing, yea, I will sing praises, even with my glory.

2 Yaa kiraaraa fi baganaa dammaqaa! Anis ganamaan nan dammaqa.

Awake, psaltery and harp. I myself will awake right early.

3 Yaa Waaqayyo, ani saboota gidduutti galata siif nan galcha; namoota gidduuttis waaʼee kee nan faarfadha.

I will give thanks to thee, O Jehovah, among the peoples, and I will sing praises to thee among the nations.

4 Jaalalli kee guddaa dha; samiiwwanis caalaa ol dheeraadhaatii; amanamummaan kees samiiwwan qaqqaba.

For thy loving kindness is great above the heavens, and thy truth is to the skies.

5 Yaa Waaqi, ati samiiwwaniin olitti ol ol jedhi; ulfinni kees lafa hunda irra haa jiraatu.

Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory above all the earth.

6 Akka warri ati jaallattu furamaniif, harka kee mirgaatiin nu oolchi; nu gargaaris;

That thy beloved may be delivered, save with thy right hand, and answer us.

7 Waaqni iddoo qulqullummaa isaatii akkana jedhee dubbateera: “Ani gammachuudhaan Sheekemin gargar nan qooda; Sulula Sukootis nan safara.

God has spoken in his holiness. I will exult. I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

8 Giliʼaad kan koo ti; Minaaseenis kan koo ti; Efreem gonfoo sibiilaa koo ti; Yihuudaanis bokkuu mootummaa koo ti.

Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is the defense of my head. Judah is my scepter.

9 Moʼaab caabii dhiqannaa koo ti; Edoom irra kophee koo darbadhee nan buusa; Filisxeem irrattis moʼannaadhaan nan geerara.”

Moab is my wash pot. Upon Edom I will cast my shoe. Over Philistia I will shout.

10 Eenyutu magaalaa jabeeffamtee ijaaramtetti na fida? Eenyutu Edoomitti na geessa?

Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom?

11 Yaa Waaqi kan nu gatte, kan loltoota keenya wajjin baʼuu diddes suma mitii?

Have thou not cast us off, O God? And thou go not forth, O God, with our armies.

12 Diina keenya of irraa dhowwuu nu gargaar, gargaarsi namaa faayidaa hin qabuutii.

Give us help against the adversary, for vain is the help of man.

13 Nu Waaqa wajjin ni moʼanna; innis diinota keenya gad dhidhiita.

Through God we shall do valiantly, for he it is who will tread down our adversaries.
