Faarfannaa 38
1 Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaadannoodhaaf. Yaa Waaqayyo, aarii keetiin na hin ifatin yookaan dheekkamsa keetiin na hin adabin.
A Psalm of David, in commemoration of the Sabbath. O Lord, do not rebuke me in your fury, nor chastise me in your wrath.
2 Xiyyooliin kee na waraananiiru; harki kees akka malee natti ulfaateera.
For your arrows have been driven into me, and your hand has been confirmed over me.
3 Sababii dheekkamsa keetiitiif dhagni koo fayyaa dhabeera; sababii cubbuu kootiifis lafeen koo nagaa dhabeera.
There is no health in my flesh before the face of your wrath. There is no peace for my bones before the face of my sins.
4 Cubbuun koo na liqimseeraatii; akkuma baʼaa baatamuu hin dandaʼamne tokkoottis natti ulfaateera.
For my iniquities have walked over my head, and they have been like a heavy burden weighing upon me.
5 Sababii gowwummaa kootiitiif, madaan koo malaa naqate; ni ajaaʼes.
My sores have putrefied and been corrupted before the face of my foolishness.
6 Ani gad nan qabame; gadis nan cabe; guyyaa guutuus gaddaan oola.
I have become miserable, and I have been bent down, even to the end. I have walked with contrition all day long.
7 Dugdi koo na bobaʼa; dhagni koos fayyaa hin qabu.
For my loins have been filled with illusions, and there is no health in my flesh.
8 Ani laafeera; akka malees bututeera; garaan koo dhiphatee ani aadaan jira.
I have been afflicted and greatly humbled. I bellowed from the groaning of my heart.
9 Yaa Gooftaa, hawwiin koo hundinuu fuula kee duratti beekamaa dha; argansuun koo si duraa hin dhokatu.
O Lord, all my desire is before you, and my groaning before you has not been hidden.
10 Lapheen koo ni dhaʼatti; jilbis na laafeera; ifni ija kootiis badeera.
My heart has been disturbed. My strength has abandoned me, and the light of my eyes has abandoned me, and it is not with me.
11 Michoonni koo fi miiltoon koo sababii madaa kootiitiif narraa hiiqan; firoonni koos narraa fagaatanii dhadhaabatu.
My friends and my neighbors have drawn near and stood against me. And those who were next to me stood far apart. And those who sought my soul used violence.
12 Warri lubbuu koo galaafachuu barbaadan kiyyoo naa kaaʼaniiru; warri na miidhuu barbaadanis waaʼee badiisa kootii dubbatu; guyyaa guutuus hammina natti yaadu.
And those who sought evil accusations against me were speaking emptiness. And they practiced deceitfulness all day long.
13 Ani garuu akkuma duudaa dhagaʼuu hin dandeenyee, akkuma arrab-didaa dubbachuu hin dandeenyeetii.
But, like someone deaf, I did not hear. And I was like someone mute, not opening his mouth.
14 Ani akka nama dhagaʼuu hin dandeenyee, akkuma nama afaan isaa deebii kennuu hin dandeenyees taʼeera.
And I became like a man who does not hear, and who has no reproofs in his mouth.
15 Yaa Waaqayyo, ani sin eeggadha; yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa ko, ati deebii naa kennita.
For in you, Lord, I have hoped. You will listen to me, O Lord my God.
16 Ani, “Akka diinonni koo natti gammadan yookaan akka isaan yeroo miilli koo mucucaatutti natti of jajan hin eeyyamin” jedheeraatii.
For I said, “Lest at any time, my enemies might rejoice over me,” and, “While my feet are being shaken, they have spoken great things against me.”
17 Ani kufuu gaʼeeraatii; dhukkubbiin koos takkumaa na hin dhiifne.
For I have been prepared for scourges, and my sorrow is ever before me.
18 Ani balleessaa koo nan himadha; sababii cubbuu kootiitiifis nan gadda.
For I will announce my iniquity, and I will think about my sin.
19 Warri akkasumaan diinota koo taʼan jajjaboo dha; warri sababii malee na jibbanis hedduu dha.
But my enemies live, and they have been stronger than me. And those who have wrongfully hated me have been multiplied.
20 Warri qooda waan gaarii waan hamaa naa deebisan diinota koo ti; ani waan gaarii duukaa nan buʼaatii.
Those who render evil for good have dragged me down, because I followed goodness.
21 Yaa Waaqayyo, ati na hin gatin; yaa Waaqa ko, narraa hin fagaatin.
Do not forsake me, O Lord my God. Do not depart from me.
22 Yaa Gooftaa, yaa fayyisaa ko, na gargaaruudhaaf ariifadhu!
Be attentive to my help, O Lord, the God of my salvation.
