Faarfannaa 149

1 Haalleluuyaa. Faarfannaa haaraa Waaqayyoof faarfadhaa; waldaa qulqullootaa keessatti illee isa jajadhaa.

Hallelujah. Sing to the Lord a new song, sound his praise where the faithful are gathered.

2 Israaʼel Uumaa isaatti haa gammadu; sabni Xiyoon Mootii isaatti haa gammadu.

Let Israel rejoice in its maker, sons of Zion exult in their king.

3 Maqaa isaas shuubbisuudhaan haa jajatu; dibbee fi baganaadhaan isaaf haa faarfatu.

Let them praise his name in the dance, making music with lyre and with timbrel.

4 Waaqayyo saba isaatti ni gammadaatii; warra gad of qabanis fayyina gonfachiisa.

For the Lord delights in his people, adorning the humble with victory.

5 Qulqulloonni ulfina kanatti haa gammadan; siree isaanii irrattis gammachuudhaan haa faarfatan.

Let the faithful exult and extol him with glad ringing cries all night long.

6 Galanni Waaqaa afaan isaanii keessa haa jiraatu; goraadeen afaan lamaas harka isaanii keessa haa jiraattu;

High praises of God in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand:

7 kunis sabootatti haaloo baʼuu fi namoota adabuudhaaf;

on the heathen to execute vengeance, and chastisement sore on the nations,

8 mootota isaanii foncaan, hangafoota isaaniis funyoo sibiilaatiin hidhuudhaaf,

binding their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron,

9 murtii barreeffame sana isaan irratti dhugaa baʼuudhaaf. Kunis amanamtoota isaa hundaaf ulfina. Haalleluuyaa.

to execute on them the doom that is written. This is the glory of all his faithful. Hallelujah.
