Faarfannaa 29

1 Faarfannaa Daawit. Isin jajjabeeyyiin, Waaqayyoof fidaa; ulfinaa fi jabina Waaqayyoof fidaa.

A psalm of David. Ascribe to the Lord, you heavenly beings, ascribe to the Lord glory and power

2 Ulfina maqaa isaatiif malu Waaqayyoof kennaa; iddoo qulqullummaa isaatti Waaqayyoon waaqeffadhaa.

Ascribe to the Lord the glory he manifests: bow to the Lord in holy array.

3 Sagaleen Waaqayyoo bishaanota irra jira; Waaqni ulfinaa ni qaqawweessaʼa; Waaqayyo bishaanota baayʼee irratti ni qaqawweessaʼa.

The Lord’s voice peals on the waters. The God of glory has thundered. He peals o’er the mighty waters.

4 Sagaleen Waaqayyoo humna qaba; sagaleen Waaqayyoo surra qabeessa.

The Lord’s voice sounds with strength, the Lord’s voice sounds with majesty.

5 Sagaleen Waaqayyoo birbirsa ni cabsa; Waaqayyo birbirsa Libaanoon ni caccabsa.

The Lord’s voice breaks the cedars, he breaks the cedars of Lebanon,

6 Inni Libaanoonin akka jabbiitti, Siiriyoonin immoo akka dibicha gafarsaatti ni utaalchisa.

making Lebanon dance like a calf, Sirion like a young wild ox.

7 Sagaleen Waaqayyoo balaqqeessa bakakkaatiin rukuta.

The Lord’s voice hews out flames of fire.

8 Sagaleen Waaqayyoo gammoojjii sochoosa; Waaqayyo Gammoojjii Qaadesh sochoosa.

The Lord’s voice rends the desert, he rends the desert of Kadesh.

9 Sagaleen Waaqayyoo qilxuu micciira; bosonas qullaatti hambisa. Hundinuus mana qulqullummaa isaa keessatti, “Ulfina!” jedhee iyya.

The Lord’s voice whirls the oaks, and strips the forests bare; and all in his temple say “Glory.”

10 Waaqayyo lolaa badiisaatiin olitti teessoo isaa irra taaʼa; Waaqayyo Mootii taʼee bara baraan teessoo isaa irra taaʼa.

The Lord was king at the flood, the Lord sits throned forever.

11 Waaqayyo saba isaatiif jabina kenna; Waaqayyo saba isaa nagaadhaan eebbisa.

The Lord gives strength to his people, he blesses his people with peace.
