Faarfannaa 63

1 Faarfannaa Daawit. Yeroo inni Gammoojjii Yihuudaa keessa turetti. Yaa Waaqi, ati Waaqa koo ti; ani dhugumaan sin barbaadadha; lafa gogaa fi gammoojjii, lafa bishaan hin jirretti, lubbuun koo si dheebotti; foon koos sitti gaggaba.

A psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. God, you are my God! I earnestly search for you, my soul thirsts for you, and my flesh longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water.

2 Kanaafuu ani iddoo qulqulluu keessattin si arge; humna keetii fi ulfina kees nan ilaale.

So I have looked on you in the sanctuary, to see your power and your glory.

3 Waan jaalalli kee jireenya caaluuf, hidhiin koo si jajatti.

Because your covenant faithfulness is better than life, my lips will praise you.

4 Ani hamman jirutti sin eebbisa; maqaa keetiinis harka koo ol nan qabadha.

So I will bless you while I live; I will lift up my hands in your name.

5 Lubbuun koo akka nama dhukaa fi cooma quufeetti quufti; afaan koos hidhii ililleetiin si jajata.

It will be as if I ate a meal of marrow and fatness; with joyful lips my mouth will praise you,

6 Ani siree koo irratti sin yaadadha; halkan guutuus waaʼee kee nan yaada.

when I think about you on my bed and meditate on you in the night hours.

7 Waan ati gargaarsa koo taateef, ani gaaddisa qoochoo keetii jalatti gammachuudhaan nan faarfadha.

For you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I rejoice.

8 Lubbuun koo sitti maxxanti; harki kee mirgaa ol na qaba.

I cling to you; your right hand supports me.

9 Warri lubbuu koo galaafachuu barbaadan garuu boolla lafaa isa gad fagoo keessa buʼu.

But those who seek to destroy my life will go down into the lowest parts of the earth;

10 Isaan dabarfamanii goraadeetti kennamu; nyaata waangoos ni taʼu.

they will be given over to those whose hands use the sword, and they will become food for the jackals.

11 Mootiin garuu Waaqaatti ni gammada; namni Waaqaan kakatu hundinuu ulfina argata; afaan warra soba dubbatuu immoo ni cufama.

But the king will rejoice in God; everyone who swears by him will be proud of him, but the mouth of those who speak lies will be stopped up.
