Faarfannaa 111

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

Hallelujah. I will thank the Lord with all my heart, in the assembled congregation of his people.

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

Great are the things that the Lord has done, worthy of study by those who love them.

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

Majestic and glorious is his work, and his righteousness abides forever.

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

For his marvellous deeds he has won renown; the Lord is gracious and full of compassion.

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

Food he gives to those who fear him, always he remembers his covenant.

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

His mighty works he has shown to his people, in giving to them the nations for heritage.

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

All that he does is faithful and right, all his behests are firm and sure.

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

They are established for ever and ever, executed with truth and uprightness.

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

To his people he sent redemption, he has appointed his covenant forever. His name is holy and awe-inspiring.

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 beginning of wisdom those who keep it are wise indeed. His praise abides for ever and ever.
