Faarfannaa 59
1 Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Yeedaloo Daawit kan “Hin balleessin” jedhuun faarfatame. Miiktaamii. Daawitis yeroo Saaʼol isa ajjeesuudhaaf jedhee namoota ergee mana isaa eegsisetti faarfate. Yaa Waaqi, diinota koo jalaa na baasi; warra natti kaʼan jalaas na furi.
[For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Do Not Destroy." A poem by David, when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him.] Deliver me from my enemies, my God. Set me on high from those who rise up against me.
2 Warra hammina hojjetan jalaa na baasi; namoota dhiiga dhangalaasan jalaas na baraari.
Deliver me from evildoers. Save me from the bloodthirsty men.
3 Ilaa, isaan riphanii na eeggachaa jiruu! Yaa Waaqayyo, namoonni hamoon, utuu ani balleessaa fi cubbuu hin qabaatin lola natti kaasu.
For, look, they lie in wait for my soul. The mighty gather themselves together against me, not for my disobedience, nor for my sin, Jehovah.
4 Ani balleessaa tokko illee hin hojjennee; isaan garuu na loluuf qophaaʼaniiru. Na gargaaruudhaaf kaʼi; rakkina koos ilaali!
I have done no wrong, yet they are ready to attack me. Rise up, look, and help me.
5 Yaa Waaqayyo, Waaqa Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, yaa Waaqa Israaʼel, saboota hunda adabuudhaaf kaʼi; warra hammina isaaniitiin yakka hojjetan tokko illee hin maarin.
You, Jehovah, the God of hosts, the God of Israel, rouse yourself to punish the nations. Show no mercy to the wicked traitors. (Selah)
6 Isaanis galgala galgala deebiʼanii, akka saree gururiʼaa magaalattii irra naannaʼu.
They return at evening, howling like dogs, and prowl around the city.
7 Waan isaan afaan isaaniitii baasan ilaali; hidhii isaanii irra goraadeetu jira; isaanis, “Eenyutu nu dhagaʼuu dandaʼa?” jedhu.
Look, they spew with their mouth. Swords are in their lips, "For," they say, "who hears us?"
8 Yaa Waaqayyo, ati garuu isaanitti kolfita; saboota sana hundumattis ni qoosta.
But you, Jehovah, laugh at them. You scoff at all the nations.
9 Yaa Jabina ko, ani sin eeggadha; yaa Waaqi ati daʼoo koo,
Oh, my Strength, I watch for you, for God is my high tower.
10 Waaqa na jaallatuu dha. Waaqni fuula koo dura deema; akka ani diinota koo moʼannoodhaan of jalatti ilaalu godha.
My God of mercy will come to meet me. God will let me look at my enemies in triumph.
11 Yaa Gooftaa, yaa gaachana keenya, ati garuu isaan hin ajjeesin; yoo kanaa achii sabni koo ni irraanfata. Humna keetiin akka isaan jooran godhi; gad isaan deebisis.
Do not kill them, or my people may forget. Scatter them by your power, and bring them down, Jehovah our shield.
12 Sababii cubbuu afaan isaaniitiif, sababii dubbii hidhii isaaniitiif, isaan of tuulummaa isaaniitiin haa qabaman. Sababii abaarsaa fi soba isaan dubbataniitiif,
For the sin of their mouth, and the words of their lips, let them be caught in their pride, for the curses and lies which they utter.
13 dheekkamsaan isaan balleessi; akka isaan deebiʼanii hin argamneef isaan balleessi. Kanaanis akka Waaqni Yaaqoob irratti mootii taʼe, hamma handaara lafaatti ni beekama.
Consume them in wrath. Consume them, and they will be no more. Let them know that God rules in Jacob, to the farthest parts of the earth. (Selah)
14 Isaanis galgala galgala deebiʼanii, akka saree gururiʼaa, magaalattii irra naannaʼu.
At evening let them return. Let them howl like a dog, and go around the city.
15 Isaan waan nyaatan barbaacha asii fi achi jooru; yoo quufuu baatan immoo ni iyyu.
They shall wander up and down for food, and wait all night if they aren't satisfied.
16 Ani garuu waaʼee jabina keetii nan faarfadha; ganamaanis waaʼee jaalala keetii nan faarfadha; ati daʼoo kootii; yeroo rakkina koottis ati iddoo ani itti kooluu galuu dha.
But I will sing of your strength. Yes, I will sing aloud of your loving kindness in the morning. For you have been my high tower, a refuge in the day of my distress.
17 Yaa Jabina ko, ani faarfannaa galataa siifin faarfadha; yaa Waaqi, ati daʼoo koo ti; ati Waaqa ani abdadhuu dha.
To you, my strength, I will sing praises. For God is my high tower, the God of my mercy.
