Faarfannaa 41
1 Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Namni hiyyeessaaf yaadu eebbifamaa dha; guyyaa rakkinaatti Waaqayyo isa ni oolcha.
“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” Happy is he who hath regard to the poor! The LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
2 Waaqayyo isa ni eega; bara jireenya isaas ni dheeressa; lafa irratti isa eebbisa; hawwii diinota isaattis dabarsee isa hin kennu.
The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; He shall be happy on the earth; Thou wilt not give him up to the will of his enemies!
3 Waaqayyo siree inni dhukkubsatee irra ciisu irratti isa kunuunsa; fayyisees siree dhukkubaa irraa isa ni kaasa.
The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of disease; All his bed thou wilt change in his sickness.
4 Anis, “Yaa Waaqayyo na maari; ani cubbuu sitti hojjedheeraatii na fayyisi” nan jedhe.
I said, O LORD! be merciful to me! Heal me, for I have sinned against thee!
5 Diinonni koo hamminaan, “Inni yoom duʼee maqaan isaa lafa irraa bada?” jedhanii waaʼee koo dubbatu.
My enemies speak evil of me: “When will he die, and his name perish?”
6 Namni tokko yeroo na gaafachuu dhufutti, utuma garaa isaatti hammina kuufatee qabuu, sobee dubbata; gad baʼees iddoo hundumatti odeessa.
If one come to see me, he speaketh falsehood; His heart gathereth malice; When he goeth abroad, he uttereth it.
7 Warri na jibban hundinuu waaʼee koo walitti hasaasu; waan akka malee hamaa taʼes natti mariʼatu.
All that hate me whisper together against me; Against me do they devise mischief:
8 Isaanis, “Dhukkubni hamaan isa qabateera; inni siʼachi iddoo ciisu sanaa hin kaʼu” jedhu.
“A deadly disease cleaveth fast unto him; He lieth down, and he shall never arise!”
9 Michuun koo inni natti dhiʼaatu, inni ani amanadhe, inni buddeena koo nyaate koomee isaa natti ol fudhate.
Yea, my familiar friend in whom I trusted, who did eat of my bread, —He hath lifted up his heel against me.
10 Ati garuu yaa Waaqayyo na baasi; akka ani haaloo baafadhuufis ol na kaasi.
But do thou, O LORD! have pity upon me; Raise me up, that I may requite them!
11 Akka ati natti gammaddu ani beeka; diinni koo narra hin aanuutii.
By this I know that thou favorest me, Because my enemy doth not triumph over me.
12 Ati sababii amanamummaa kootiitiif utubdee na qabda; baruma baraanis fuula kee dura na dhaabda.
As for me, thou wilt uphold me in my integrity; Thou wilt set me before thy face for ever!
13 Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel, bara baraa hamma bara baraatti haa eebbifamu.
[Praised be Jehovah, the God of Israel, From everlasting to everlasting. Amen! Amen!]
