Faarfannaa 139
1 Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqayyo, ati na qorteerta; na beekteertas.
To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David. Jehovah, thou hast searched me, and known [me].
2 Ati yeroo ani gad taaʼuu fi yeroo ani ol kaʼu ni beekta; yaada koos fagootti hubatta.
Thou knowest my down-sitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off;
3 Deemuu koo fi ciisuu koo addaan baaftee beekta; karaa koo hundas beekta.
Thou searchest out my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways;
4 Yaa Waaqayyo, akka dubbiin tokko iyyuu arraba koo hin jirre, ati guutumaan guutuutti ni beekta.
For there is not yet a word on my tongue, [but] lo, O Jehovah, thou knowest it altogether.
5 Ati duraa fi duubaan na marsiteerta; harka kees narra keesseerta.
Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thy hand upon me.
6 Beekumsi akkanaa anaaf akka malee dinqii dha; hubachuufis akka malee narraa fagoo dha.
O knowledge too wonderful for me! it is high, I cannot [attain] unto it.
7 Hafuura kee biraa ani eessa dhaquun dandaʼa? Fuula kee duraas ani eessatti baqachuun dandaʼa?
Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? and whither flee from thy presence?
8 Yoo ani samiiwwanitti ol baʼe, ati achi jirta; yoo ani siree koo siiʼool keessa dhaabbadhes, achis ni jirta. (Sheol h7585)
If I ascend up into the heavens thou art there; or if I make my bed in Sheol, behold, thou [art there]; (Sheol h7585)
9 Yoo ani qoochoo ganamaatiin barrisee qarqara galaanaa fagoo irra qubadhe,
[If] I take the wings of the dawn [and] dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10 achittis harki kee karaa na argisiisa; harki kee mirgaas jabeessee na qaba.
Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
11 Yoo ani, “Dhugumaan dukkanni na dhoksa; ifnis naannoo kootti halkan taʼa” jedhe,
And if I say, Surely darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night;
12 dukkanni iyyuu siif dukkana hin taʼu; halkanis akkuma guyyaa ifa; dukkanni siif akkuma ifaatii.
Even darkness hideth not from thee, and the night shineth as the day: the darkness is as the light.
13 Ati namummaa koo isa keessaa uumteertaatii; gadameessa haadha koo keessattis na tolchite.
For thou hast possessed my reins; thou didst cover me in my mother's womb.
14 Ani sababii haala sodaachisaa fi dinqisiisaadhaan uumameef sin galateeffadha; hojiin kee dinqisiisaa dha; kanas ani akka gaariittan beeka.
I will praise thee, for I am fearfully, wonderfully made. Marvellous are thy works; and [that] my soul knoweth right well.
15 Yeroo ani iddoo dhoksaatti uumame, lafeen koo si duraa hin dhokanne. Yeroo ani dhidhima lafaa keessatti tolfame,
My bones were not hidden from thee when I was made in secret, curiously wrought in the lower parts of the earth.
16 iji kee dhagna koo kan hin tolfamin arge. Guyyoonni duraan dursanii naaf murteeffaman hundi utuu hin jiraatin, kitaaba kee keessatti barreeffamaniiru.
Thine eyes did see my unformed substance, and in thy book all [my members] were written; [during many] days were they fashioned, when [as yet] there was none of them.
17 Yaa Waaqi, yaada kee hubachuun akkam ulfaata! Baayʼinni isaas akkam guddaa dha!
But how precious are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
18 Utuu ani isaan lakkaaʼee jiraadhee, silaa lakkoobsi isaanii cirracha irra baayʼata. Ani yeroon dammaqutti, amma iyyuu suma wajjinan jira.
[If] I would count them, they are more in number than the sand. When I awake, I am still with thee.
19 Maaloo yaa Waaqi, ati utuu hamoota fixxee! Warri dhiiga namaa dhangalaaftan, narraa fagaadhaa!
Oh that thou wouldest slay the wicked, O God! And ye men of blood, depart from me.
20 Isaan yaada hamaadhaan waaʼee kee dubbatu; diinonni kee akkasumaan maqaa kee dhaʼu.
For they speak of thee wickedly, they take [thy name] in vain, thine enemies.
21 Yaa Waaqayyo, ani warra si jibban hin jibbuu? Warra sitti kaʼanis hin xireeffadhuu?
Do not I hate them, O Jehovah, that hate thee? and do not I loathe them that rise up against thee?
22 Ani hamma dhumaatti isaan jibbeera; akka diina koottis isaan nan heda.
I hate them with perfect hatred; I account them mine enemies.
23 Yaa Waaqi, na sakattaʼi; garaa koos beeki; qoriitii na ilaali; yaada koos beeki.
Search me, O God, and know my heart; prove me, and know my thoughts;
24 Yoo karaan hamminaa na keessa jiraate mee ilaali; karaa bara baraa irras na adeemsisi.
And see if there be any grievous way in me; and lead me in the way everlasting.
