Faarfannaa 111

1 Haalleluuyaa. Ani waldaa tolootaatii fi wal gaʼii keessatti, garaa koo guutuudhaan Waaqayyoon nan galateeffadha.

Let the Lord be praised. I will give praise to the Lord with all my heart, among the upright, and in the meeting of the people.

2 Hojiin Waaqayyoo guddaa dha; warri itti gammadan hundinuus irra deddeebiʼanii yaadan.

The works of the Lord are great, searched out by all those who have delight in them.

3 Hojiin isaa surra qabeessaa fi kabajamaa dha; qajeelummaan isaas bara baraan jiraata.

His work is full of honour and glory; and his righteousness is unchanging for ever.

4 Inni akka dinqiin isaa yaadatamu godheera; Waaqayyo arjaa fi gara laafessa.

Certain for ever is the memory of his wonders: the Lord is full of pity and mercy.

5 Inni warra isa sodaataniif nyaata kenna; kakuu isaas bara baraan ni yaadata.

He has given food to his worshippers; he will keep his agreement in mind for ever.

6 Lafa saboota kaanii isaaniif kennuudhaan humna hojii isaa saba isaatti mulʼiseera.

He has made clear to his people the power of his works, giving them the heritage of the nations.

7 Hojiin harka isaa amanamaa fi qajeelaa dha; ajajni isaa hundinuus amanamaa dha.

The works of his hands are faith and righteousness; all his laws are unchanging.

8 Isaanis bara baraa hamma bara baraatti jabaatanii dhaabatu; amanamummaa fi qajeelummaadhaanis hojjetamu.

They are fixed for ever and ever, they are done in faith and righteousness.

9 Inni saba isaatiif furii ergeera; kakuu isaas bara baraan ajajeera; maqaan isaa qulqulluu fi sodaachisaa dha.

He has sent salvation to his people; he has given his word for ever: holy is his name and greatly to be feared.

10 Waaqayyoon sodaachuun jalqaba ogummaa ti; warri sirna isaa faana buʼan hundinuu hubannaa gaarii qabu. Galanni isaa bara baraan jiraata.

The fear of the Lord is the best part of wisdom: all those who keep his laws are wise: his praise is eternal.
