Faarfannaa 27
1 Faarfannaa Daawit. Waaqayyo ibsaa kootii fi fayyina koo ti; ani eenyunan sodaadha? Waaqayyo daʼoo jireenya kootii ti; eenyutu na sodaachisa?
By David. The LORD is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?
2 Namoonni hamoon yommuu foon koo nyaachuudhaaf natti dhufan, diinonni koo fi amajaajonni koo yommuu na miidhuuf natti kaʼan, gufatanii kufu.
When evildoers came at me to eat up my flesh, even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.
3 Yoo duulli na marse illee, garaan koo hin sodaatu; yoo waraanni natti baname illee ani hin raafamu.
Though an army should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear. Though war should rise against me, even then I will be confident.
4 Ani waan tokko Waaqayyoon nan kadhadha; waan kanas nan barbaada: Kunis bara jireenya kootii guutuu mana Waaqayyoo keessa jiraachuu, miidhagina Waaqayyoo ilaaluu fi mana qulqullummaa isaa keessatti isa kadhachuu dha.
One thing I have asked of the LORD, that I will seek after: that I may dwell in the LORD’s house all the days of my life, to see the LORD’s beauty, and to enquire in his temple.
5 Inni guyyaa rakkinaa iddoo ofii jiraatu na kaaʼataatii; daʼoo dunkaana isaa jala na dhoksa; kattaa gubbaattis ol na baasa.
For in the day of trouble, he will keep me secretly in his pavilion. In the secret place of his tabernacle, he will hide me. He will lift me up on a rock.
6 Yommus diinota na marsanii olitti mataan koo ol jedha; dunkaana isaa keessatti illee ililleedhaan aarsaa nan dhiʼeessa; Waaqayyoof nan faarfadha; nan weeddisas.
Now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me. I will offer sacrifices of joy in his tent. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.
7 Yaa Waaqayyo, yommuu ani si waammadhu, sagalee koo dhagaʼi; naaf araarami; deebiis naaf kenni.
Hear, LORD, when I cry with my voice. Have mercy also on me, and answer me.
8 Yommuu ati, “Fuula koo barbaadaa!” jettetti, garaan koo, “Yaa Waaqayyo, ani fuula kee nan barbaada” siin jedha.
When you said, “Seek my face,” my heart said to you, “I will seek your face, LORD.”
9 Fuula kee na duraa hin dhoksin; aartee tajaajilaa kee of irraa hin deebisin; ati gargaaraa koo taateerta. Yaa Waaqayyo, Fayyisaa ko, na hin gatin; na hin dhiisinis.
Don’t hide your face from me. Don’t put your servant away in anger. You have been my help. Don’t abandon me, neither forsake me, God of my salvation.
10 Yoo abbaan kootii fi haati koo na dhiisan illee, Waaqayyo na simata.
When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.
11 Yaa Waaqayyo, karaa kee na barsiisi; sababii ani diinota baayʼee qabuuf daandii qajeelaa irra na buusi.
Teach me your way, LORD. Lead me in a straight path, because of my enemies.
12 Fedhii diinota kootiitti dabarsitee na hin kennin; dhuga baatonni sobduun narratti kaʼaniiruutii; isaanis hafuura jalʼinaa baafatu.
Don’t deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries, for false witnesses have risen up against me, such as breathe out cruelty.
13 Anis biyya jiraattotaa keessatti gaarummaa Waaqayyoo akkan argu amma iyyuu nan amana.
I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
14 Waaqayyoon eeggadhu; cimi; jabaadhus; Waaqayyoon eeggadhu.
Wait for the LORD. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for the LORD.
