Faarfannaa 128

1 Faarfannaa Ol Baʼuu. Warri Waaqayyoon sodaatan, kanneen karaa isaa irra deeman eebbifamoo dha.

A Song of Degrees. Blessed are all they that fear the Lord; who walk in his ways.

2 Ati buʼaa dadhabbii keetii ni nyaatta; ni eebbifamta; jireenyis sitti tola.

You shall eat the labors of your hands: blessed are you, and it shall be well with you.

3 Niitiin kee mana kee keessatti, akka muka wayinii kan ija naqatee ni taati; ijoolleen kees naannoo maaddii keetiitti, akka lataa muka ejersaa ni taʼu.

Your wife shall be as a fruitful vine on the sides of your house: your children as young olive-plants round about your table.

4 Namni Waaqayyoon sodaatu akkasitti eebbifama.

Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that fears the Lord.

5 Bara jireenya keetii guutuu, Waaqayyo Xiyoon irraa si haa eebbisu; atis badhaadhummaa Yerusaalem argi.

May the Lord bless you out of Sion; and may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

6 ijoollee ijoollee keetii ni argi; nagaan Israaʼeliif haa taʼu.

And may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
