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 Elohim ·Deity, Judge·.” They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity. There is no one who does good.

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

God looks down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there are any who understood, who seek after God.

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

Every one of them has gone back. They have become filthy together. There is no one who 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, and don’t call on 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 they were in great fear, where no fear was, for God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you. You have put them to shame, because God has rejected 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 yishu'ah ·salvation· of Israel [God prevails] would come out of Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking]! When God brings back his people from captivity, then Jacob [Supplanter] shall rejoice, and Israel [God prevails] shall be glad.
