Faarfannaa 26

1 Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqayyo, sababii ani jireenya hirʼina hin qabne jiraadheef, ati naa murteessi; anis utuu asii fi achi hin raafamin, Waaqayyoon amanadheera.

[A Psalm] of David. Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in my innocence: and hoping in the Lord I shall not be moved.

2 Yaa Waaqayyo, qoriitii na ilaali; garaa koo fi qalbii koo qori;

Prove me, O Lord, and try me; purify as with fire my reins and my heart.

3 jaalalli kee kan hin geeddaramne sun ija koo dura jiraatii; anis dhugaa keetiin nan deddeebiʼa.

For your mercy is before mine eyes: and I am well pleased with your truth.

4 Ani warra nama gowwoomsan wajjin hin taaʼu, yookaan fakkeessitoota wajjin tokkummaa hin qabaadhu;

I have not sat with the council of vanity, and will in nowise enter in with transgressors.

5 ani waldaa warra hammina hojjetanii nan jibba; hamoota wajjinis hin taaʼu.

I have hated the assembly of wicked doers; and will not sit with ungodly [men].

6 Yaa Waaqayyo, ani harka koo qulqullummaadhaan nan dhiqadha; iddoo aarsaa keetii irras nan naannaʼa.

I will wash my hands in innocency, and compass your altar, O Lord:

7 Faarfannaa galataa guddisee nan faarfadha; dinqii hojii keetii hunda nan odeessa.

to hear the voice of praise, and to declare all your wonderful works.

8 Yaa Waaqayyo, mana ati keessa jiraattu, iddoo ulfinni kee jirus nan jaalladha.

O Lord, I have loved the beauty of your house, and the place of the tabernacle of your glory.

9 Lubbuu koo cubbamoota wajjin, jireenya koos warra dhiiga dhangalaasan wajjin hin balleessin;

Destroy not my soul together with the ungodly, nor my life with bloody men:

10 warra harka isaanii keessa karoorri jalʼinaa jiru kanneen harki isaanii mirgaa mattaʼaadhaan guutame wajjin na hin balleessin.

in whose hands [are] iniquities, [and] their right hand is filled with bribes.

11 Ani garuu jireenya hirʼina hin qabne nan jiraadha; ati na furi; araaras naa buusi.

But I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy upon me.

12 Miilli koo lafa wal qixxee irra dhaabata; waldaa guddaa keessattis Waaqayyoon nan jajadha.

My foot stands in an even place: in the congregations will I bless you, O Lord.
