< Faarfannaa 16 >
1 Miiktaamii Daawit. Yaa Waaqi, ani kooluu sitti galeeraatii, ati na eegi.
Michtam of David. Preserve me, O God; for in thee do I take refuge.
2 Anis Waaqayyoon, “Ati Gooftaa koo ti; ani si malee gaarummaa hin qabu” nan jedha.
[O my soul], thou hast said unto Jehovah, Thou art my Lord: I have no good beyond thee.
3 Qulqulloonni lafa irraa garuu ulfina qabeeyyii dha; anis isaanitti baayʼee nan gammada.
As for the saints that are in the earth, They are the excellent in whom is all my delight.
4 Warra waaqota tolfamoo duukaa buʼan, gaddi isaanii ni guddata. Dhibaayyuu dhiigaa ani isaaniif hin dhibaafadhu; yookaan afaan kootiin maqaa isaanii hin dhaʼu.
Their sorrows shall be multiplied that give gifts for another [god]: Their drink-offerings of blood will I not offer, Nor take their names upon my lips.
5 Waaqayyo qooda dhaala kootii fi qooda xoofoo koo ti; ixaa koos situ naa jiraachisa.
Jehovah is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: Thou maintainest my lot.
6 Funyoon daangaa iddoo gaarii naa buʼeera; dhugumaan ani dhaala nama gammachiisu qaba.
The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; Yea, I have a goodly heritage.
7 Waaqayyo isa na gorsu sana ani nan jajadha; halkanis yaadni koo na qajeelcha.
I will bless Jehovah, who hath given me counsel; Yea, my heart instructeth me in the night seasons.
8 Ani yeroo hunda fuula koo duraa Waaqayyoon qaba. Waan inni mirga koo jiruuf ani hin raafamu.
I have set Jehovah always before me: Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9 Kanaaf garaan koo ni gammada; arrabni koos ni ililcha; foon koos nagaadhaan jiraata;
Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: My flesh also shall dwell in safety.
10 ati siiʼool keessatti na hin dhiiftuutii, yookaan amanamaan kee akka tortoru hin gootu. (Sheol )
For thou wilt not leave my soul to Sheol; Neither wilt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption. (Sheol )
11 Ati karaa jireenyaa na barsiifta; fuula kee durattis gammachuudhaan na guutta; gara mirga keetii gammachuu bara baraatu jira.
Thou wilt show me the path of life: In thy presence is fulness of joy; In thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
