Faarfannaa 34
1 Faarfannaa Daawit. Innis fuula Abiimelek duratti maraatuu of fakkeesseef Abiimelek isa ariinaan yeroo achii deemetti faarfate. Ani yeroo hunda Waaqayyoon nan eebbisa; galanni isaas yeroo hunda afaanii na hin buʼu.
By David, in his changing his behaviour before Abimelech, and he driveth him away, and he goeth. I do bless Jehovah at all times, Continually His praise [is] in my mouth.
2 Lubbuun koo Waaqayyoon boonti; cunqurfamtoonni dhagaʼanii haa gammadan.
In Jehovah doth my soul boast herself, Hear do the humble and rejoice.
3 Na wajjin Waaqayyoof ulfina kennaa; kottaa walii wajjin maqaa isaa ol kaafnaa.
Ascribe ye greatness to Jehovah with me, And we exalt His name together.
4 Waaqayyoon nan barbaaddadhe; innis deebii naa kenne; sodaa koo hunda keessaas na baase.
I sought Jehovah, and He answered me, And from all my fears did deliver me.
5 Warri gara isaa ilaalan ni ifu; fuulli isaaniis yoom iyyuu hin qaanaʼu.
They looked expectingly unto Him, And they became bright, And their faces are not ashamed.
6 Hiyyeessi kun ni iyye; Waaqayyos isa dhagaʼe; rakkina isaa hundumaa keessaas isa baase.
This poor [one] called, and Jehovah heard, And from all his distresses saved him.
7 Ergamaan Waaqayyoo naannoo warra Waaqa sodaatanii ni qubata; isaan ni oolchas.
A messenger of Jehovah is encamping, Round about those who fear Him, And He armeth them.
8 Akka Waaqayyo gaarii taʼe mee miʼeeffadhaa ilaalaa; namni isatti kooluu galu eebbifamaa dha.
Taste ye and see that Jehovah [is] good, O the happiness of the man who trusteth in Him.
9 Isin qulqulloonni isaa Waaqayyoon sodaadhaa; warri isa sodaatan homaa hin dhabaniitii.
Fear Jehovah, ye His holy ones, For there is no lack to those fearing Him.
10 Leenci saafelli iyyuu waa ni dhaba; ni beelaʼas; namni Waaqayyoon barbaaddatu garuu waan gaarii tokko illee hin dhabu.
Young lions have lacked and been hungry, And those seeking Jehovah lack not any good,
11 Yaa ijoollee ko, kottaa na dhagaʼaa; anis Waaqayyoon sodaachuu isinan barsiisa.
Come ye, children, hearken to me, The fear of Jehovah I do teach you.
12 Namni jireenya jaallatu, kan bara gaarii arguudhaafis bara baayʼee hawwu eenyu?
Who [is] the man that is desiring life? Loving days to see good?
13 Arraba kee waan hamaa irraa, afaan kees soba dubbachuu irraa eeggadhu.
Keep thy tongue from evil, And thy lips from speaking deceit.
14 Hammina irraa deebiʼi; gaarii hojjedhu; nagaa barbaadi; duukaa buʼis.
Turn aside from evil and do good, Seek peace and pursue it.
15 Iji Waaqayyoo qajeeltota irra jira; gurri isaas iyya isaaniitiif banamaa dha;
The eyes of Jehovah [are] unto the righteous, And His ears unto their cry.
16 yaadannoo isaanii lafa irraa balleessuudhaaf, fuulli Waaqayyoo warra hamaa hojjetanitti ni hammaata.
(The face of Jehovah [is] on doers of evil, To cut off from earth their memorial.)
17 Qajeeltonni gargaarsaaf iyyatu; Waaqayyos isaan dhagaʼa. Rakkina isaanii hunda keessaas isaan baasa.
They cried, and Jehovah heard, And from all their distresses delivered them.
18 Waaqayyo warra garaan isaanii cabetti dhiʼoo dha; warra abdii kutatanis ni fayyisa.
Near [is] Jehovah to the broken of heart, And the bruised of spirit He saveth.
19 Rakkinni nama qajeelaa baayʼee dha; Waaqayyo garuu hunda isaa jalaa isa baasa;
Many [are] the evils of the righteous, Out of them all doth Jehovah deliver him.
20 lafee isaa hunda ni eega; isaan keessaas tokko illee hin cabu.
He is keeping all his bones, One of them hath not been broken.
21 Hamoota hamminatu ajjeesa; warra nama qajeelaa jibbanitti ni murteeffama.
Evil doth put to death the wicked, And those hating the righteous are desolate.
22 Waaqayyo lubbuu tajaajiltoota isaa ni fura; warra isatti kooluu galan keessaa tokkotti illee hin murteeffamu.
Jehovah redeemeth the soul of His servants, And none trusting in Him are desolate!
