Faarfannaa 13

1 Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqayyo, hamma yoomiitti? Ati hamma bara baraatti na irraanfattaa? Hamma yoomiittis fuula kee na duraa dhoksita?

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

2 Ani hamma yoomiittin rakkina obsee guyyaa guutuu garaa koo keessatti gadda? Hamma yoomiitti diinni koo narra aana?

How long shall I take counsel in my soul, [having] sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

3 Yaa Waaqayyo Waaqa ko, na ilaali; deebii illee naa kenni. Akka ani hirriba duʼaa hin rafneefis ija kootiif ifa kenni;

Consider [and] hear me, O LORD my God: lighten my eyes, lest I sleep [the sleep] of death;

4 diinni koo, “Ani isa moʼadheera” jedha; amajaajiiwwan koos kufaatii kootti gammadu.

Lest my enemy say, I have prevailed against him; [and] those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.

5 Ani garuu araara kee nan amanadha; garaan koos fayyisuu keetti ni gammada.

But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.

6 Ani Waaqayyoof nan faarfadha; arjummaan isaa naa baayʼateeraatii.

I will sing to the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
