Faarfannaa 128

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

The song of greces. Blessid ben alle men, that dreden the Lord; that gon in hise weies.

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

For thou schalt ete the trauels of thin hondis; thou art blessid, and it schal be wel to 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.

Thi wijf as a plenteous vyne; in the sidis of thin hous. Thi sones as the newe sprenges of olyue trees; in the cumpas of thi bord.

4 Namni Waaqayyoon sodaatu akkasitti eebbifama.

Lo! so a man schal be blessid; that dredith the Lord.

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

The Lord blesse thee fro Syon; and se thou the goodis of Jerusalem in alle the daies of thi lijf.

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

And se thou the sones of thi sones; se thou pees on Israel.
