Faarfannaa 125

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

A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. Those trusting in YHWH [are] as Mount Zion, It is not moved—it abides for all time.

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

Jerusalem! Mountains [are] around her, And YHWH [is] around His people, From now on—even for all time.

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

For the rod of wickedness does not rest on the lot of the righteous, That the righteous do not put forth their hands on iniquity.

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

Do good, O YHWH, to the good, And to the upright in their hearts.

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

As for those turning [to] their crooked ways, YHWH causes them to go with workers of iniquity. Peace on Israel!
