Faarfannaa 19
1 Dura Buʼaa Faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Samiiwwan ulfina Waaqaa odeessu; bantiin samiis hojii harka isaa labsa.
“To the chief musician, a psalm of David.” The heavens relate the glory of God; and the expanse telleth of the works of his hands.
2 Guyyaan tokko guyyaa kaanitti odeessa, halkan tokkos halkan kaanitti beekumsa mulʼisa.
Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge.
3 Haasaan yookaan dubbiin hin jiru; sagaleen isaaniis hin dhagaʼamu.
There is no speech, there are no words, their voice is not heard.
4 Taʼus sagaleen isaanii lafa hundumaa, dubbiin isaaniis handaara addunyaa gaʼe. Inni samiiwwan keessatti biiftuudhaaf dunkaana dhaabe;
[But] their melody extendeth through all the earth, and to the end of the world their words. For the sun hath he set a tabernacle among them;
5 biiftuunis akkuma misirricha dinqa isaatii baʼuutii fi akkuma moʼataa fiigicha dorgomutti gammadu tokkoo ti.
And he goeth out as a bridegroom from his chamber, he is glad like a strong man to run his course;
6 Isheenis handaara samiiwwanii tokkoo baatee gara handaara kaaniitti naannofti; wanni hoʼa ishee jalaa dhokatu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
From the end of the heavens is his going forth, and his circuit is unto their ends: and there is nothing hidden from his heat.
7 Seerri Waaqayyoo mudaa hin qabu; lubbuu namatti deebisa. Ajajni Waaqayyoo amanamaa dha; nama wallaalaa beekaa godha.
The law of the Lord is perfect, quieting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
8 Seerri Waaqayyoo qajeelaa dha; garaadhaaf gammachuu kenna. Ajajni Waaqayyoo qulqulluu dha; ijaafis ifa kenna.
The precepts of the Lord are upright, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is clear, enlightening the eyes.
9 Waaqayyoon sodaachuun qulqulluu dha; bara baraan jiraata. Murtiin Waaqayyoo dhugaa dha; walumaa galattis qajeelaa dha.
The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring for ever: the ordinances of the Lord are the truth, they are just altogether.
10 Inni warqee caalaa, warqee akka malee qulqulleeffame caalaa iyyuu gatii qabeessa; inni damma caalaa, nadhii dammaa caalaa miʼaawaa dha.
They are those which are to be desired more than gold, and much fine gold; and they are sweeter than honey and the dropping of honeycomb.
11 Murtii kanaanis tajaajilaan kee ni gorfama; isa eeguunis gatii guddaa qaba.
Moreover thy servant is admonished by them: in keeping them there is great reward.
12 Eenyutu dogoggora isaa hubachuu dandaʼa? Yakka koo isa dhokfamaa irraa na qulqulleessi.
Who can guard against errors? from secret [faults] do thou cleanse me.
13 Tajaajilaa kee cubbuu ija jabinaan hojjetamu irraa eegi; cubbuun kunis na hin moʼatin. Yoos ani hirʼina malee nan jiraadha; dogoggora guddaa irraas qulqulluu nan taʼa.
Also from presumptuous [sins] withhold thy servant; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be blameless, and I shall be clear from any great transgression.
14 Yaa Waaqayyo, Kattaa koo fi Furii ko, dubbiin afaan kootii fi yaadni garaa koo fuula kee duratti fudhatamaa haa taʼu.
May the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable before thee, O Lord, my Rock, and my Redeemer.
