Faarfannaa 128

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

A Song of degrees. Blessed [is] every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.

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

For thou shalt eat the labor of thy hands: happy [shalt] thou be, and [it shall be] well with thee.

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.

Thy wife [shall be] as a fruitful vine by the sides of thy house: thy children like olive plants around thy table.

4 Namni Waaqayyoon sodaatu akkasitti eebbifama.

Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.

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

The LORD shall bless thee out of Zion: and thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.

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

Yes, thou shalt see thy children's children, [and] peace upon Israel.
