Faarfannaa 53

1 Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Gosa Muuziiqaa maahilaati jedhamuun faarfatame. Maskiilii Daawiti. Gowwaan garaa isaatti, “Waaqni hin jiru” jedha. Isaan xuraaʼaniiru; karaan isaaniis jibbisiisaa dha; namni waan gaarii hojjetu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.

The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that does good.

2 Waaqni yoo namni waa hubatu, kan Waaqas barbaadu tokko iyyuu jiraate arguuf jedhee, samii irraa ilmaan namootaa gad ilaala.

God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.

3 Hundinuu dogoggoraniiru; hundi isaaniis xuraaʼaniiru; namni waan gaarii hojjetu tokko iyyuu hin jiru; tokkumti iyyuu hin jiru.

Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that does good, no, not one.

4 Warri hammina hojjetan, kanneen akkuma waan buddeena nyaataniitti saba koo nyaatan, warri Waaqa hin waammanne hundinuu homaa hin beekanii?

Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread: they have not called upon God.

5 Isaan iddoo wanni sodaatamu hin jirretti, sodaadhaan liqimfamaniiru. Waaqni lafee warra si marsanii ni bittinneessa; sababii Waaqni isaan tuffateef, ati isaan qaanessite.

There were they in great fear, where no fear was: for God has scattered the bones of him that camps against you: you have put them to shame, because God has despised them.

6 Maaloo utuu Xiyoon keessaa fayyinni Israaʼeliif dhufee! Yommuu Waaqni saba isaa warra boojiʼaman deebisutti, Yaaqoob haa ililchu; Israaʼelis haa gammadu!

Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God brings back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
