Faarfannaa 20

1 Dura Buʼaa Faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Guyyaa rakkinaatti Waaqayyo deebii siif haa kennu; maqaan Waaqa Yaaqoobis si haa eegu.

To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. Yahweh answer thee, in the day of distress, The Name of the God of Jacob give thee safety;

2 Inni iddoo qulqulluudhaa gargaarsa siif haa ergu; Xiyoon irraas jabina siif haa kennu.

Send thy help out of the sanctuary, and, out of Zion, sustain thee;

3 Aarsaa kee hunda siif haa yaadatu; qalma kee kan gubamus siif haa fudhatu.

Remember every present of thine, and, thine ascending-sacrifice, esteem. (Selah)

4 Hawwii garaa keetii siif haa kennu; karoora kee hundas fiixaan siif haa baasu.

Give thee according to thy heart, and, all thy purposes, fulfil.

5 Yommuu ati moʼattutti ililchinee maqaa Waaqa keenyaatiin faajjii keenya ol fudhanna. Waaqayyo waan ati kadhattu hundumaa siif haa kennu.

We will shout aloud in thy salvation, and, in the Name of our God, shall we become great, Yahweh fulfil all thy petitions.

6 Ani akka Waaqayyo dibamaa isaa fayyisu amma beeka; Waaqayyo humna nama fayyisu kan harka isaa mirgaa keessa jiru sanaan samii isaa qulqulluu keessaa deebii ni kennaaf.

Now, do I know that Yahweh, hath saved, his Anointed One, —He answereth him out of his holy heavens, by the mighty saving deeds of his own right hand.

7 Namoonni tokko tokko gaariiwwan amanatu; kaan immoo fardeen amanatu; nu garuu maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaa amananna.

These, by chariots, and, those, by horses, but, we, by the Name of Yahweh our God, will prevail.

8 Isaan gufatanii kufu; nu garuu ol kaana; jabaannees ni dhaabanna.

They, have bowed down and fallen, but, we, have arisen, and stand upright.

9 Yaa Waaqayyo, ati mootiidhaaf moʼannaa kenni! Yommuu nu si waammannuttis deebii nuu kenni!

Yahweh, hath saved the king. Answer us, then, on the day when we call.
