Faarfannaa 52
1 Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Maskiilii Daawit. Dooʼeeg namni biyya Edoomii yeroo gara Saaʼolii dhaqee, “Daawit gara mana Ahiimelekii dhufeera” jedhee itti himetti faarfatame. Yaa nama jabaa nana, ati maaliif hamminaan koorta? Ati namni fuula Waaqaa duratti tuffatamtu, maaliif guyyaa guutuu koorta?
Why boast you yourself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God endures continually.
2 Ati namni nama gowwoomsitu, arrabni kee badiisa qopheessa; arrabni kee akkuma qarabaa qaramee ti.
The tongue devises mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
3 Ati waan gaarii irra waan hamaa jaallatta; dhugaa dubbachuu irra immoo soba dubbachuu jaallatta.
You love evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. (Selah)
4 Yaa arraba gowwoomsituu nana, ati dubbii nama miidhu hunda jaallatta.
You love all devouring words, O you deceitful tongue.
5 Kanaafuu Waaqni bara baraan si balleessa: Inni dunkaana kee keessaa butee si ciccira; biyya jiraattotaa keessaas si buqqisa.
God shall likewise destroy you for ever, he shall take you away, and pluck you out of your dwelling place, and root you out of the land of the living. (Selah)
6 Qajeeltonni waan kana arganii sodaatan; isaanis akkana jedhanii isatti kolfan;
The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:
7 “Kunoo, namicha Waaqa daʼoo isaa hin godhatin, qooda kanaa immoo baayʼina qabeenya isaa amanatee jalʼina ofiitti ciche!”
See, this is the man that made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.
8 Ani garuu akkuma ejersa mana Waaqaa keessatti lalisuu ti; baraa hamma bara baraattis, jaalala Waaqaa kan hin geeddaramne sana nan amanadha.
But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God: I trust in the mercy of God for ever and ever.
9 Sababii ati waan kana gooteef ani bara baraan sin galateeffadha; sababii maqaan kee gaarii taʼeef ani maqaa kee nan abdadha. Fuula qulqulloota kee durattis sin leellisa.
I will praise you for ever, because you have done it: and I will wait on your name; for it is good before your saints.
