Faarfannaa 2
1 Namoonni maaliif akkanumaan malatu? Saboonnis maaliif waan akkanumaan mariʼatu?
Why have the Gentiles been seething, and why have the people been pondering nonsense?
2 Mootonni lafaa kaʼanii, bulchitoonnis Waaqayyoo fi Masiihii isaatiin mormuuf walitti qabaman;
The kings of the earth have stood up, and the leaders have joined together as one, against the Lord and against his Christ:
3 isaanis, “Kottaa foncaa isaanii of irraa kukkunnaa; hidhaa isaaniis of irraa hiiknee gannaa” jedhu.
“Let us shatter their chains and cast their yoke away from us.”
4 Inni samii keessa, teessoo irra taaʼee jiru ni kolfa; Gooftaanis isaanitti qoosa.
He who dwells in heaven will ridicule them, and the Lord will mock them.
5 Innis aarii isaatiin isaan ifata; dheekkamsa isaatiinis isaan naasisa;
Then will he speak to them in his anger and trouble them with his fury.
6 innis, “Ani tulluu koo qulqulluu irra, Xiyoon irra, mootii koo teessifadheera” jedha.
Yet I have been appointed king by him over Zion, his holy mountain, preaching his precepts.
7 Ani seera Waaqayyoo nan labsa: innis akkana anaan jedhe; “Ati ilma koo ti; ani harʼa si dhalcheera.
The Lord has said to me: You are my son, this day have I begotten you.
8 Na kadhadhu; ani saboota dhaala kee, handaara lafaas qabeenya kee godhee siifan kenna.
Ask of me and I will give to you: the Gentiles for your inheritance, and the ends of the earth for your possession.
9 Ati ulee sibiilaatiin isaan cabsita; akka qodaa supheettis isaan hurreessita.”
You will rule them with an iron rod, and you will shatter them like a potter’s vessel.
10 Kanaafuu yaa mootota, qalbeeffadhaa; bulchitoonni lafaas of eeggadhaa.
And now, O kings, understand. Receive instruction, you who judge the earth.
11 Sodaadhaan Waaqayyoon tajaajilaa; hollachaas gammadaa.
Serve the Lord in fear, and exult in him with trembling.
12 Akka inni hin aarreef, isinis akka karaa irratti hin badneef ilma isaa dhungadhaa; dheekkamsi isaa dafee bobaʼaatii. Warri isatti kooluu galan hundi eebbifamoo dha.
Embrace discipline, lest at any time the Lord might become angry, and you would perish from the way of the just. Though his wrath can flare up in a short time, blessed are all those who trust in him.
