Faarfannaa 14

1 Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Gowwaan garaa isaatti, “Waaqni hin jiru” jedha. Isaan xuraaʼaniiru; hojiin isaaniis jibbisiisaa dha; namni waan gaarii hojjetu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.

The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt. They have done abominable works. There is none that does good.

2 Waaqayyo yoo namni waa hubatu, kan Waaqas barbaadu, tokko iyyuu jiraate arguuf jedhee, samii irraa ilmaan namootaa gad ilaala.

Jehovah looked down from heaven upon the sons of men to see if there were any who understood, who sought after God.

3 Hundinuu dogoggoraniiru; hundi isaaniis xuraaʼaniiru; namni waan gaarii hojjetu tokko hin jiru; tokkumti iyyuu hin jiru.

They are all gone aside. They are together become filthy. There is none who does good, no, not one.

4 Warri hammina hojjetan kanneen akkuma waan buddeena nyaataniitti saba koo nyaatan, warri Waaqayyoon hin waammanne hundinuu homaa hin beekanii?

Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon Jehovah?

5 Isaan sodaadhaan liqimfamaniiru; Waaqni dhaloota qajeeltotaa wajjin jiraatii.

There they were in great fear, for God is in the generation of the righteous.

6 Isin jalʼoonni karoora hiyyeeyyii jalaa fashaleessitu; Waaqayyo garuu daʼoo isaanii ti.

Ye put to shame the counsel of the poor because Jehovah is his refuge.

7 Maaloo utuu Xiyoon keessaa fayyinni Israaʼeliif dhufee! Yommuu Waaqayyo saba isaa warra boojiʼaman deebisutti, Yaaqoob haa ililchu; Israaʼelis haa gammadu!

O that the salvation of Israel came out of Zion! When Jehovah brings back the captivity of his people, then Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
