Faarfannaa 49
1 Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Ilmaan Qooraahi. Yaa namoota, isin hundi waan kana dhagaʼaa; warri addunyaa kana irra jiraattan hundinuu dhaggeeffadhaa;
TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. Hear this, all you peoples, Give ear, all you inhabitants of the world.
2 xinnaa fi guddaan, sooressii fi hiyyeessi walumaan dhaggeeffadhaa; kunis:
Both low and high, together rich and needy.
3 Afaan koo dubbii ogummaa dubbata; wanti ani garaatti yaadus hubannaa kenna.
My mouth speaks wise things, And the meditations of my heart [are] things of understanding.
4 Gurra koo gara mammaaksaatti nan qabadha; hibboo koos baganaadhaan nan ibsadha.
I incline my ear to an allegory, I open my riddle with a harp:
5 Bara rakkinaa, yeroo gowwoomsitoonni hamoon na marsanitti, ani maaliifan sodaadha?
Why do I fear in days of evil? The iniquity of my supplanters surrounds me.
6 Isaan qabeenya isaanii amanatu; guddina sooruma isaaniitiinis boonu.
Those trusting on their wealth, And in the multitude of their riches, Show themselves foolish.
7 Namni lubbuu nama gara biraa furu, yookaan gatii furii nama sanaa Waaqaaf baasu tokko iyyuu hin jiru;
A brother ransoms no one at all, He does not give to God his atonement.
8 furiin lubbuu namaa gatii guddaa qabaatii; gatiin quufsaanis yoom iyyuu hin argamu;
And precious [is] the redemption of their soul, And it has ceased for all time.
9 silaa inni bara baraan ni jiraata; hin tortorus ture.
And still he lives forever, He does not see the pit.
10 Akka ogeeyyiin duʼan namni hundinuu ni arga; gowwoonnii fi raatuwwanis akkasuma ni badu; qabeenya isaaniis warra kaaniif dhiisu.
For he sees wise men die, Together the foolish and brutish perish, And have left their wealth to others.
11 Isaan yoo lafa maqaa isaaniitiin waamamtu qabaatan illee, awwaalli isaanii bara baraan mana isaanii, dhalootaa hamma dhalootaattis iddoo boqonnaa isaanii taʼee hafa.
Their heart [is that] their houses [are] for all time, Their dwelling places from generation to generation. They proclaimed their names over the lands.
12 Namni garuu qabeenya qabaatu illee bara dheeraa hin jiraatu; inni akkuma bineensa duʼee baduu ti.
And man does not remain in honor, He has been like the beasts, they have been cut off.
13 Wanni namoota ofitti amanatanii fi warra isaan duukaa buʼanii dubbii isaanii hoʼisan eeggatu kanuma.
This their way [is] folly for them, And their posterity are pleased with their sayings. (Selah)
14 Isaan akkuma hoolaa duʼaaf ramadamaniiru; duuti tiksee isaanii ti; toloonni ganamaan isaan irratti aangoo qabaatu; dhagni isaanii mana isaanii irraa fagaatee awwaala keessatti ni tortora; awwaallis mana jireenya isaanii ti. (Sheol h7585)
They have set themselves as sheep for Sheol, Death afflicts them, And the upright rule over them in the morning, And their form [is] for consumption. Sheol [is] a dwelling for him. (Sheol h7585)
15 Waaqni garuu lubbuu koo humna siiʼool jalaa baasa; inni dhugumaan ofitti na fudhata. (Sheol h7585)
Only, God ransoms my soul from the hand of Sheol, For He receives me. (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
16 Yommuu namni tokko sooromu, yommuu ulfinni mana isaas guddatu hin sodaatin.
Do not fear when one makes wealth, When the glory of his house is abundant,
17 Inni yommuu duʼutti waanuma tokko illee fudhatee hin deemuutii; ulfinni isaas isa wajjin hin dhaqu.
For at his death he receives nothing, His glory does not go down after him.
18 Inni bara jireenya isaa lubbuu isaa eebbisu iyyuu, yoo namoonni yeroo ati waan gaarii ofii keetii godhattutti si jajan illee,
For he blesses his soul in his life (And they praise you when you do well for yourself).
19 inni gara dhaloota abbootii isaa, gara warra gonkumaa deebiʼanii ifa jireenyaa hin arginee ni dhaqa.
It comes to the generation of his fathers, They do not see the light forever.
20 Namni badhaadhaan hubannaa hin qabne, akkuma bineensaa duʼee bada.
Man in honor, who does not understand, Has been like the beasts, they have been cut off!
