Faarfannaa 143
1 Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqayyo, kadhannaa koo naa dhagaʼi; gurra kees gara waammata kootiitti deebisi; amanamummaa fi qajeelummaa keetiin, na gargaari.
Hear, O Lord, my prayer: give ear to my supplication in thy truth: hear me in thy justice.
2 Ati garbicha kee murtiitti hin dhiʼeessin; namni lubbuun jiraatu kam iyyuu fuula kee duratti qajeelaa mitiitii.
And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight no man living shall be justified.
3 Diinni lubbuu koo ariʼachaa jiraatii; jireenya koos butuchee biyyootti make. Akkuma warra dur duʼaniittis dukkana keessa na jiraachiseera.
For the enemy hath persecuted my soul: he hath brought down my life to the earth. He hath made me to dwell in darkness as those that have been dead of old:
4 Kanaafuu hafuurri koo na keessatti gaggabeera; onneen koos na keessatti rifatteerti.
And my spirit is in anguish within me: my heart within me is troubled.
5 Ani guyyoota durii nan yaadadha; waan ati hojjette hundas irra deddeebiʼee nan yaada; waan harki kee hojjete illee nan heda.
I remembered the days of old, I meditated on all thy works: I meditated upon the works of thy hands.
6 Harka koo gara keetti nan diriirfadha; lubbuun koos akkuma lafa gogaa si dheebotti.
I stretched forth my hands to thee: my soul is as earth without water unto thee.
7 Yaa Waaqayyo, dafii deebii naa kenni; hafuurri koo dadhabeera. Fuula kee na duraa hin dhoksin yookaan ani akka warra boolla buʼanii nan taʼa.
Hear me speedily, O Lord: my spirit hath fainted away. Turn not away thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.
8 Ani waanan si amanadheef, akka ani ganama ganama oduu jaalala keetii dhagaʼu godhi. Ani lubbuu koo gara keetti ol nan kaasaatii, karaa ani irra deemuu qabu natti argisiisi.
Cause me to hear thy mercy in the morning; for in thee have I hoped. Make the way known to me, wherein I should walk: for I have lifted up my soul to thee.
9 Yaa Waaqayyo, ani akka ati na dhoksituuf sitti nan baqadhaatii, diinota koo jalaa na baasi.
Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord, to thee have I fled:
10 Ati sababii Waaqa koo taateef, akka ani fedhii kee guutu na barsiisi; hafuurri kee gaariin sun karaa wal qixxee irra na haa qajeelchu.
Teach me to do thy will, for thou art my God. Thy good spirit shall lead me into the right land:
11 Yaa Waaqayyo, maqaa keetii jedhiitii lubbuu koo jiraachisi; qajeelummaa keetiinis rakkina keessaa na baasi.
For thy name’s sake, O Lord, thou wilt quicken me in thy justice. Thou wilt bring my soul out of trouble:
12 Ati sababii na jaallattuuf diinota koo fixi; waan ani garbicha kee taʼeef, warra na cunqursan hunda barbadeessi.
And in thy mercy thou wilt destroy my enemies. And thou wilt cut off all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.
