Faarfannaa 125

1 Faarfannaa ol baʼuu. Warri Waaqayyoon amanatan akka Tulluu Xiyoon kan hin raafamne, kan bara baraan jiraatu sanaa ti.

A Canticle in steps. Those who trust in the Lord will be like the mountain of Zion. He will not be disturbed for eternity, who dwells

2 Akkuma tulluuwwan Yerusaalemin marsan sana, Waaqayyo ammaa jalqabee hamma bara baraatti, saba isaa ni marsa.

in Jerusalem. Mountains surround it. And the Lord surrounds his people, from this time forward and even forever.

3 Akka qajeeltonni jalʼina hojjechuuf harka isaanii ol hin diriirfanneef, bokkuun hamootaa lafa qajeeltotaaf ixaadhaan qoodame irra hin jiraatu.

For the Lord will not allow the rod of sinners to remain over the lot of the just, so that the just may not extend their hands toward iniquity.

4 Yaa Waaqayyo, warra gaariif, warra garaa isaaniitiin toloota taʼaniifis waan gaarii godhi.

Do good, O Lord, to the good and to the upright of heart.

5 Warra karaa micciiramaatti garagalan garuu, Waaqayyo akkuma warra hammina hojjetan balleessu jaras ni balleessa. Nagaan Israaʼeliif haa taʼu.

But those who turn away into obligation, the Lord will lead away with the workers of iniquity. Peace be upon Israel.
