Faarfannaa 62

1 Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Yeduutuuniif. Faarfannaa Daawit. Lubbuun koo Waaqa qofa eeggatti; fayyinni koos isa biraa naa dhufa.

For the chief musician; after the manner of Jeduthun. A psalm of David. I wait in silence for God alone; my salvation comes from him.

2 Kattaan kootii fi fayyinni koo isa qofa; inni daʼoo koo ti; ani gonkumaa hin raafamu.

He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be greatly moved.

3 Isin hamma yoomiitti nama miitu? Hamma yoomiitti akka keenyan manaa kan duufeetti, akka dallaa raafameettis lafaan isa dhaʼuu barbaaddu?

How long, all of you, will you attack a man, that you may tip him over like a leaning wall or a shaky fence?

4 Isaan aangoo isaa guddaa sana irraa, guutummaatti gad isa deebisuu barbaadu; isaan sobatti ni gammadu. Afaan isaaniitiin ni eebbisu; garaa isaaniitiin garuu ni abaaru.

They consult with him only to bring him down from his honorable position; they love to tell lies; they bless him with their mouths, but in their hearts they curse him. (Selah)

5 Lubbuun koo Waaqa qofa obsaan eeggatti; abdiin koo isa biraa dhufaatii.

I wait in silence for God alone; for my hope is set on him.

6 Kattaan kootii fi fayyinni koo isa qofa; inni daʼoo koo ti; ani hin raafamu.

He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be moved.

7 Fayyinni kootii fi ulfinni koo harka Waaqaa keessa jira; kattaan koo jabaan, iddoon ani itti kooluu galu Waaqa.

With God is my salvation and my glory; the rock of my strength and my refuge are in God.

8 Yaa namoota, yeroo hunda isa amanadhaa; garaa keessanis fuula isaa duratti dhangalaasaa; Waaqni iddoo nu itti kooluu galluudhaatii.

Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us. (Selah)

9 Gosa tuffatamaa irraa dhalachuun homaa miti; gosa kabajamaa irraa dhalachuunis sobuma; yoo madaaliidhaan madaalaman lachanuu qilleensa caalaa salphatu.

Surely men of low standing are vanity, and men of high standing are a lie; they will weigh lightly in the scales; weighed together, they are lighter than nothing.

10 Waan saamichaan argattan hin amanatinaa; waan hatameenis hin koorinaa. Yoo qabeenyi keessan guddate illee, qalbii keessan isa irra hin kaaʼatinaa.

Do not trust in oppression or robbery; and do not hope uselessly in riches, for they will bear no fruit; do not fix your heart on them.

11 Waaqni yeroo tokko dubbate; ani immoo yeroo lama nan dhagaʼe; kunis akka humni kan Waaqaa taʼee dha.

God has spoken once, twice have I heard this: power belongs to God.

12 Yaa Gooftaa araarri kan kee ti. Ati dhugumaan tokkoo tokkoo namaa akkuma hojii isaatti gatii isaa ni kennitaaf.

Also to you, Lord, belongs covenant faithfulness, for you pay back every person for what he has done.
