Faarfannaa 61

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

To the chief music-maker. On a corded instrument. Of David. Let my cry come to you, O God; let your ears be open to my prayer.

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

From the end of the earth will I send up my cry to you, when my heart is overcome: take me to the rock which is over-high for me.

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

For you have been my secret place, and my high tower from those who made war on me.

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

I will make your tent my resting-place for ever: I will keep myself under the cover of your wings. (Selah)

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

For you, O God, have made answer to my prayers; you have given me the heritage of those who give honour to your name.

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

You will give the king long life; and make his years go on through the generations.

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

May the seat of his authority be before God for ever; may mercy and righteousness keep him safe.

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

So will I make songs in praise of your name for ever, giving to God that which is right day by day.
