Faarfannaa 130

1 Faarfannaa ol baʼuu. Yaa Waaqayyo, ani boolla gad fagoo keessaa sitti nan iyyadha;

A Song of degrees. Out of the depths do I call upon thee, Jehovah.

2 yaa Gooftaa, sagalee koo dhagaʼi. Gurri kees sagalee waammata koo xiyyeeffatee haa dhagaʼu.

Lord, hear my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

3 Yaa Waaqayyo, utuu ati cubbuu lakkooftee, yaa gooftaa silaa eenyutu dhaabachuu dandaʼa?

If thou, Jah, shouldest mark iniquities, Lord, who shall stand?

4 Garuu dhiifamni si bira jira; kanaaf ati ni sodaatamta.

But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

5 Ani Waaqayyoon nan eeggadha; lubbuun koos isa eeggatti; dubbii isaas nan abdadha.

I wait for Jehovah; my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

6 Eegdota barii lafaa eeggatan caalaa, dhugumaan eegdota barii lafaa eeggatan caalaa lubbuun koo Gooftaa eeggatti.

My soul [waiteth] for the Lord more than the watchers [wait] for the morning, [more than] the watchers for the morning.

7 Yaa Israaʼel, ati Waaqayyoon abdadhu; Waaqayyo bira jaalalli dhuma hin qabne, furiin guutuunis ni jiraatii.

Let Israel hope in Jehovah, because with Jehovah there is loving-kindness, and with him is plenteous redemption;

8 Inni mataan isaa cubbuu isaanii hundumaa irraa Israaʼelin ni fura.

And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
