Faarfannaa 3
1 Faarfannaa Daawit yeroo ilma isaa Abesaaloom jalaa baqatetti faarfate. Yaa Waaqayyo, diinonni koo akkam baayʼatu! Namoonni baayʼeen natti kaʼaniiru!
A Psalm of David. When he fled from the face of his son, Absalom. Lord, why have those who trouble me been multiplied? Many rise up against me.
2 Namoonni baayʼeen, “Waaqni isa hin baraaru” jedhanii waaʼee koo dubbatu.
Many say to my soul, “There is no salvation for him in his God.” (Pause)
3 Yaa Waaqayyo, ati garuu naannoo kootti gaachana koo ti; ulfina kootis; mataa koos kan ol qabdu suma.
But you, Lord, are my supporter, my glory, and the one who raises up my head.
4 Ani guddisee Waaqayyotti nan iyyadha; innis tulluu isaa qulqulluu irraa deebii naa kenna.
I have cried out to the Lord with my voice, and he has heard me from his holy mountain. (Pause)
5 Ani nan ciisa; nan rafas; waan Waaqayyo ol na qabuuf nan dammaqa.
I have slept, and I have been stupefied. But I awakened because the Lord has taken me up.
6 Saba kumaatama qixa hundaan kaʼee na marse ani hin sodaadhu.
I will not fear the thousands of people surrounding me. Rise up, Lord. Save me, my God.
7 Yaa Waaqayyo kaʼi! Yaa Waaqa koo na baraari! Mangaagaa diinota kootii hundumaa rukuti; ilkaan hamootaa illee caccabsi.
For you have struck all those who oppose me without cause. You have broken the teeth of sinners.
8 Fayyinni kan Waaqayyoo ti. Eebbi kee saba kee irra haa jiraatu.
Salvation is of the Lord, and your blessing is upon your people. (Pause)
