Faarfannaa 4
1 Dura buʼaa Faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit kan Baganaadhaan Faarfatamu. Yaa Waaqa qajeelumma kootii, yommuu ani si waammadhutti deebii naa kenni. Ati yeroo rakkina kootti na boqochiisi; araara kee naa buusi; kadhaa koos dhagaʼi.
For the chief musician; on stringed instruments. A psalm of David. Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness; give me room when I am hemmed in. Have mercy on me and listen to my prayer.
2 Yaa ilmaan namootaa, isin hamma yoomiitti ulfina koo gara salphinaatti deebiftu? Isin hamma yoomiitti waan faayidaa hin qabne jaallattanii soba barbaaddu?
You people, how long will you turn my honor into shame? How long will you love that which is worthless and seek after lies? (Selah)
3 Isin akka Waaqayyo warra isaaf bulan ofii isaatiif addaan baafate beekaa; Waaqayyo yommuu ani isa waammadhutti na dhagaʼa.
But know that Yahweh sets apart the godly for himself. Yahweh will hear when I call to him.
4 Yeroo aartanitti cubbuu hin hojjetinaa; yommuu siree keessan irra jirtanitti, garaa keessan keessatti yaadaa; calʼisaas.
Tremble in fear, but do not sin! Meditate in your heart on your bed and be silent. (Selah)
5 Aarsaa qajeelummaa dhiʼeessaa; Waaqayyonis amanadhaa.
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness and put your trust in Yahweh.
6 Namoonni, “Eenyutu waan gaarii nu argi argisiisa?” jedhan baayʼee dha; yaa Waaqayyo, ifni fuula keetii nurratti haa ifu.
Many say, “Who will show us anything good?” Yahweh, lift up the light of your face on us.
7 Gammachuu isaan yeroo midhaanii fi daadhiin wayinii isaanii baayʼatutti argatan caalaa, ati garaa koo gammachuu guddaadhaan guutteerta.
You have given my heart more gladness than others have when their grain and new wine abound.
8 Ani nagaadhaan nan ciisa; nan rafas; yaa Waaqayyo si qofatu, sodaa malee na jiraachisaatii.
It is in peace that I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Yahweh, make me safe and secure.
