Faarfannaa 61

1 Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit kan miʼa ribuutiin faarfatame. Yaa Waaqi, iyyata koo dhagaʼi; kadhannaa koos dhaggeeffadhu.

For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. Of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer.

2 Yeroo garaan koo citetti, ani handaara lafaatii sin waammadha; ati gara kattaa na caalaa ol dheeratuutti na geessi.

From the ends of the earth I call out to You whenever my heart is faint. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3 Ati iddoo ani itti kooluu galuudhaatii; fuula diina koo durattis gamoo jabaa dha.

For You have been my refuge, a tower of strength against the enemy.

4 Ani bara baraan dunkaana kee keessa jiraachuu, gaaddisa qoochoo keetii jalattis kooluu galuu nan hawwa.

Let me dwell in Your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of Your wings.

5 Yaa Waaqi, ati wareega koo dhageesseertaatii; dhaala warri maqaa kee sodaatan argatanis naa kenniteerta.

For You have heard my vows, O God; You have given me the inheritance reserved for those who fear Your name.

6 Bara jireenya mootii, umurii isaa illee dhalootaa gara dhalootaatti dheeressi.

Increase the days of the king’s life; may his years span many generations.

7 Innis fuula Waaqaa duratti bara baraan haa moʼu; akka jaalalli keetii fi amanamummaan kee isa eeganis godhi.

May he sit enthroned in God’s presence forever; appoint Your loving devotion and Your faithfulness to guard him.

8 Anis faarfannaa galataa maqaa keetiif nan faarfadha; guyyuma guyyaanis wareega koo nan guuttadha.

Then I will ever sing praise to Your name and fulfill my vows day by day.
