Faarfannaa 108

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

Song of a Psalm by David. O God, my heart is ready, my heart is ready; I will sing and sing psalms with my glory.

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

Awake, psaltery and harp; I will awake early.

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

I will give thanks to thee, O Lord, among the people; I will sing praise to thee among the Gentiles.

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

For thy mercy is great above the heavens, and thy truth [reaches] to the clouds.

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 [ones] may be delivered, save with thy right hand, and hear me. God has spoken in his sanctuary;

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

I will be exalted, and will divide Sicima, and will measure out the valley of tents.

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

Galaad is mine; and Manasses is mine; and Ephraim is the help of mine head; Judas is my king;

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

Moab is the caldron of my hope; over Idumea will I cast my sandal; the Philistines are made subject to me.

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

Who will bring me into the fortified city? or who will guide me to Idumea?

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

Wilt not thou, O God, who hast rejected us? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?

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

Give us help from tribulation: for vain is the help of man.

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

Through God we shall do valiantly; and he will bring to nought our enemies.
