Faarfannaa 139
1 Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqayyo, ati na qorteerta; na beekteertas.
TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH, You have searched me, and know.
2 Ati yeroo ani gad taaʼuu fi yeroo ani ol kaʼu ni beekta; yaada koos fagootti hubatta.
You have known my sitting down, And my rising up, You have attended to my thoughts from afar.
3 Deemuu koo fi ciisuu koo addaan baaftee beekta; karaa koo hundas beekta.
You have fanned my path and my lying down, And have been 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 a word in my tongue, Behold, O YHWH, You have known it all!
5 Ati duraa fi duubaan na marsiteerta; harka kees narra keesseerta.
You have besieged me behind and before, And You place Your hand on me.
6 Beekumsi akkanaa anaaf akka malee dinqii dha; hubachuufis akka malee narraa fagoo dha.
Knowledge too wonderful for me, It has been set on high, I am not able for it.
7 Hafuura kee biraa ani eessa dhaquun dandaʼa? Fuula kee duraas ani eessatti baqachuun dandaʼa?
To where do I go from Your Spirit? And to where do I flee from Your face?
8 Yoo ani samiiwwanitti ol baʼe, ati achi jirta; yoo ani siree koo siiʼool keessa dhaabbadhes, achis ni jirta. (Sheol h7585)
If I ascend the heavens—You [are] there, And spread out a bed in Sheol, behold, You! (Sheol h7585)
9 Yoo ani qoochoo ganamaatiin barrisee qarqara galaanaa fagoo irra qubadhe,
I take the wings of morning, I dwell in the uttermost part of the sea,
10 achittis harki kee karaa na argisiisa; harki kee mirgaas jabeessee na qaba.
Also there Your hand leads me, And Your right hand holds me.
11 Yoo ani, “Dhugumaan dukkanni na dhoksa; ifnis naannoo kootti halkan taʼa” jedhe,
And I say, “Surely darkness bruises me,” Then night [is] light to me.
12 dukkanni iyyuu siif dukkana hin taʼu; halkanis akkuma guyyaa ifa; dukkanni siif akkuma ifaatii.
Also darkness does not hide from You, And night shines as day, As [is] darkness so [is] light.
13 Ati namummaa koo isa keessaa uumteertaatii; gadameessa haadha koo keessattis na tolchite.
For You have possessed my reins, You cover me in my mother’s belly.
14 Ani sababii haala sodaachisaa fi dinqisiisaadhaan uumameef sin galateeffadha; hojiin kee dinqisiisaa dha; kanas ani akka gaariittan beeka.
I confess You, because I have been fearfully distinguished. Your works [are] wonderful, And my soul is knowing [it] well.
15 Yeroo ani iddoo dhoksaatti uumame, lafeen koo si duraa hin dhokanne. Yeroo ani dhidhima lafaa keessatti tolfame,
My substance was not hid from You, When I was made in secret, Curiously worked in the lower part of earth.
16 iji kee dhagna koo kan hin tolfamin arge. Guyyoonni duraan dursanii naaf murteeffaman hundi utuu hin jiraatin, kitaaba kee keessatti barreeffamaniiru.
Your eyes saw my unformed substance, And all of them are written on Your scroll, The days they were formed—And not one among them.
17 Yaa Waaqi, yaada kee hubachuun akkam ulfaata! Baayʼinni isaas akkam guddaa dha!
And how precious Your thoughts have been to me, O God, how great has been their sum!
18 Utuu ani isaan lakkaaʼee jiraadhee, silaa lakkoobsi isaanii cirracha irra baayʼata. Ani yeroon dammaqutti, amma iyyuu suma wajjinan jira.
I recount them! They are more than the sand, I have awoken, and I am still with You.
19 Maaloo yaa Waaqi, ati utuu hamoota fixxee! Warri dhiiga namaa dhangalaaftan, narraa fagaadhaa!
Do You slay, O God, the wicked? Then, men of blood, turn aside from me!
20 Isaan yaada hamaadhaan waaʼee kee dubbatu; diinonni kee akkasumaan maqaa kee dhaʼu.
Who exchange You for wickedness, Your enemies [are] lifted up to vanity.
21 Yaa Waaqayyo, ani warra si jibban hin jibbuu? Warra sitti kaʼanis hin xireeffadhuu?
Do I not hate, YHWH, those hating You? And grieve myself with Your withstanders?
22 Ani hamma dhumaatti isaan jibbeera; akka diina koottis isaan nan heda.
I have hated them [with] perfect hatred, They have become enemies to me.
23 Yaa Waaqi, na sakattaʼi; garaa koos beeki; qoriitii na ilaali; yaada koos beeki.
Search me, O God, and know my heart, Try me, and know my thoughts,
24 Yoo karaan hamminaa na keessa jiraate mee ilaali; karaa bara baraa irras na adeemsisi.
And see if a grievous way be in me, And lead me in a perpetual way!
