< Faarfannaa 21 >
1 Dura Buʼaa Faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqayyo, mootiin jabina keetti baayʼee gammada. Gargaarsa keettis gammachuun isaa hammam guddaa dha!
For the end, a Psalm of David. O Lord, the king shall rejoice in thy strength; and in thy salvation he shall greatly exult.
2 Ati hawwii garaa isaa kenniteefii jirta; kadhannaa afaan isaas isa hin dhowwanne.
Thou hast granted him the desire of his soul, and hast not withheld from him the request of his lips. (Pause)
3 Ati eebba guddaadhaan isa simatte; gonfoo warqee qulqulluus mataa isaa irra keesse.
For thou hast prevented him with blessings of goodness: thou has set upon his head a crown of precious stone.
4 Inni jireenya si kadhate; atis ni kenniteef; bara dheeraas bara baraa hamma bara baraatti kenniteef.
He asked life of thee, and thou gavest him length of days for ever and ever.
5 Ulfinni isaa moʼannaa ati isaaf kenniteen guddaa taʼe; atis ulfinaa fi surraa isatti uwwifte.
His glory is great in thy salvation: thou wilt crown him with glory and majesty.
6 Ati eebba bara baraa kenniteef; akka inni gammachuu argama keetiitiin gammadus goote.
For thou wilt give him a blessing for ever and ever: thou wilt gladden him with joy with thy countenance.
7 Mootichi Waaqayyoon amanataatii; sababii jaalala Waaqa Waan Hundaa Olii kan hin geeddaramne sanaatiifis inni hin raafamu.
For the king trusts in the Lord, and through the mercy of the Highest he shall not be moved.
8 Harki kee diinota kee hunda ni qabata; harki kee mirgaas warra si jibban ni qaba.
Let thy hand be found by all thine enemies: let thy right hand find all that hate thee.
9 Yeroo mulʼachuu keetiitti, akka boolla ibiddi keessaa bobaʼuu isaan goota. Waaqayyo dheekkamsa isaatiin isaan liqimsa; ibiddis isaan fixa.
Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven at the time of thy presence: the Lord shall trouble them in his anger, and fire shall devour them.
10 Ati sanyii isaanii lafa irraa, ijoollee isaaniis ilmaan namaa gidduudhaa ni balleessita.
Thou shalt destroy their fruit from the earth, and their seed from [among] the sons of men.
11 Isaan yoo waan hamaa sitti yaadan, yoo daba sitti mariʼatanis hin milkaaʼan.
For they intended evils against thee; they imagined a device which they shall by no means be able to perform.
12 Ati yommuu iddaa kee isaanitti qabdutti, akka isaan baqatan gootaatii.
For thou shalt make them [turn their] back in thy latter end, thou wilt prepare their face.
13 Yaa Waaqayyo, jabina keetiin ol ol jedhi; nu humna kee ni jajanna; ni faarfannas.
Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy strength: we will sing and praise thy mighty acts.
