Faarfannaa 32
1 Faarfannaa Daawit. Maskiil. Namni yakki isaa dhiifameef, kan cubbuun isaas haguugameef, eebbifamaa dha.
Of David. A maskil. Happy those whose transgression is pardoned, whose sin is covered.
2 Namni Waaqayyo cubbuu itti hin lakkoofne, kan hafuura isaa keessas gowwoomsaan hin jirre, eebbifamaa dha.
Happy are those, free from falseness of spirit, to whom the Lord reckons no debt of guilt.
3 Yeroo ani cubbuu koo himachuu dhiisetti, guyyaa guutuu aaduu kootiin, lafeen koo ni bosose.
When I held my peace, my bones wore away with my endless groaning;
4 Harki kee halkanii fi guyyaa natti ulfaateeraatii; jabinni koos akkuma waan hoʼa bonaatiin taʼuutti xuuxame.
for day and night did your hand lie heavy upon me. The sap of my life was dried up as with fierce summer-heat. (Selah)
5 Ergasiis cubbuu koo sitti nan himadhe; balleessaa koos si hin dhokfanne. Anis, “Irra daddarba koo, Waaqayyootti nan himadha” nan jedhe; atis yakka cubbuu kootii, naa dhiifteerta.
I began to acknowledge my sin, not concealing my guilt; and the moment I vowed to confess to the Lord my transgression, then you yourself did pardon the guilt of my sin. (Selah)
6 Kanaafuu namni amanamaan kam iyyuu, yeroo ati itti argamtutti si haa kadhatu; lolaan bishaan guddaas isa bira hin gaʼu.
For this cause let all who are faithful pray to you in the time of distress; then, when the great waters rush, they will not reach to him.
7 Ati iddoo ani itti dhokadhuu dha; rakkina irraa na eegda; faarfannaa moʼannaatiinis na marsita.
For you are my shelter, you protect me from trouble, and surround me with deliverance. (Selah)
8 Ani karaa ati irra deemtu irratti sin qajeelcha; sin barsiisas; ani ija koo jaalalaatiin sin ilaala; sin gorsa.
‘With my eye steadfastly upon you, I will instruct and teach you The way you should go.
9 Isin akka farda yookaan gaangoo hubannaa hin qabnee hin taʼinaa; isaan yoo luugamaa fi fuuloodhaan qabaman malee gara kee hin dhufan.
Do not be like the horse or the mule, that have no understanding, but need bridle and halter to curb them, else they will not come near to you.’
10 Dhiphinni namoota hamoo baayʼee dha; araarri Waaqayyoo garuu nama isa amanatu ni marsa.
The godless have many sorrows, but those who trust in the Lord will be compassed about by his kindness.
11 Yaa qajeeltota, isin Waaqayyotti gammadaa; ililchaas; warri garaa qulqulluu qabdan hundinuu ililchaa.
Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, you righteous; and ring out your joy, all you upright in heart.
