Faarfannaa 69
1 Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Yeedaloo “Daraaraatiin.” Faarfannaa Daawit. Yaa Waaqi, ati na baasi; bishaan ol dhufee morma na gaʼeeraatii.
For the end, [a Psalm] of David, for alternate [strains]. Save me, O God; for the waters have come in to my soul.
2 Ani raaree keessa, lafa iddoon miilla dhaabatan hin jirre keessa seeneera. Ani tuujuba bishaanii keessa seeneera; lolaanis narra garagaleera.
I am stuck fast in deep mire, and there is no standing: I am come in to the depths of the sea, and a storm has overwhelmed me.
3 Ani iyyuudhaan dadhabeera; laagaan koo babbaqaqeera; iji koo, Waaqa koo eeggachuudhaan dadhabeera.
I am weary [of] crying, my throat has become hoarse; mine eyes have failed by my waiting on my God.
4 Warri lafumaa kaʼanii na jibban rifeensa mataa kootii caalaa baayʼatu; warri na ajjeesuu barbaadan, warri akkasumaan diina koo taʼan baayʼee dha. Ani akkan waan hin hatin deebisu dirqameera.
They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head: my enemies that persecute me unrighteously are strengthened: then I restored that which I took not away.
5 Yaa Waaqi, ati gowwummaa koo ni beekta; yakki koos si duraa hin dhokatu.
O God, you know my foolishness; and my transgressions are not hidden from you.
6 Yaa Gooftaa, Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandeessu, warri abdii sirra kaaʼatan, sababii kootiif hin qaanaʼin; yaa Waaqa Israaʼel, warri si barbaadan, sababii kootiif hin qaaneffamin.
Let not them that wait on you, O Lord of hosts, be ashamed on my account: let not them that seek you, be ashamed on my account, O God of Israel.
7 Ani siif jedhee tuffii obseeraatii; qaaniinis fuula koo haguugeera.
For I have suffered reproach for your sake; shame has covered my face.
8 Ani obboloota kootti keessummaa, ilmaan haadha kootiittis alagaa dha;
I became strange to my brethren, and a stranger to my mother's children.
9 Hinaaffaan mana keetii na guggubeeraatii; arrabsoon warra si arrabsaniis narra buʼeera.
For the zeal of your house has eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached you are fallen upon me.
10 Booʼuu fi soomuun koo, arrabsoo natti taʼe.
And I bowed down my soul with fasting, and that was made my reproach.
11 Yommuu ani wayyaa gaddaa uffadhetti, namoonni natti qoosu.
And I put on sackcloth for my covering; and I became a proverb to them.
12 Warri karra dura tataaʼan natti qoosu; machooftonnis waaʼee kootiin sirbu.
They that sit in the gate talked against me, and they that drank wine sang against me.
13 Ani garuu yaa Waaqayyo, yeroo ati filattutti sin kadhadha; yaa Waaqi, jaalala kee guddichaan fayyina kee kan dhugaatiinis deebii naaf kenni.
But I [will cry] to you, O Lord, in my prayer; O God, it is a propitious time: in the multitude of your mercy hear me, in the truth of your salvation.
14 Akka ani hin liqimfamneef, raaree keessaa na baasi; warra na jibban jalaa, bishaanota gad fagoo keessaas na baasi.
Save me from the mire, that I stick not [in it]: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and from the deep waters.
15 Ati akka lolaan na hin fudhanne, akka tuujubni na hin liqimsine, akka boollis afaan isaa natti hin cufanne godhi.
Let not the waterflood drown me, nor let the deep swallow me up; neither let the well shut its mouth upon me.
16 Yaa Waaqayyo, gaarummaa jaalala keetiitiin deebii naaf kenni; araara kee guddichaanis natti garagali.
Hear me, O Lord; for your mercy is good: according to the multitude of your compassions look upon me.
17 Fuula kee tajaajilaa kee duraa hin dhokfatin; waan ani rakkina keessa jiruuf dafiitii deebii naaf kenni.
And turn not away your face from your servant; for I am afflicted: hear me speedily.
18 Natti dhiʼaadhuutii na furi; xiiqii diinota kootiif jedhii na baasi.
Draw near to my soul and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies.
19 Ati akka ani hammam tuffatamee, salphifamee fi akka ani qaaneffame ni beekta; diinonni koo hundinuus fuula koo dura jiru.
For you know my reproach, and my shame, and my confusion; all that afflict me are before you.
20 Arrabsoon garaa koo cabse; anis abdii kutadheera. Ani nama garaa naaf laafu nan barbaade; garuu nan dhabe; nama na jajjabeessus nan barbaade; garuu tokko illee hin arganne.
My soul has waited for reproach and misery; and I waited for one to grieve with me, but there was none; and for one to comfort me, but I found none.
21 Nyaata kootti hadhooftuu makan; akka ani dhuguuf immoo waan dhangaggaaʼaa naa kennan.
They gave [me] also gall for my food, and made me drink vinegar for my thirst.
22 Maaddiin isaanii iddaa isaanitti haa taʼu; adabaa fi kiyyoo isaanitti haa taʼu.
Let their table before them be for a snare, and for a recompense, and for a stumbling block.
23 Akka arguu hin dandeenyeef iji isaanii haa haguuggamu; dugdi isaaniis bara baraan haa goophatu.
Let their eyes be darkened that they should not see; and bow down their back continually.
24 Dheekkamsa kee isaan irratti dhangalaasi; aariin kee bobaʼaan sunis isaan irra haa buʼu.
Pour out your wrath upon them, and let the fury of your anger take hold on them.
25 Qeʼeen isaanii haa onu; namni dunkaana isaanii keessa jiraatu tokko iyyuu hin hafin.
Let their habitation be made desolate; and let there be no inhabitant in their tents:
26 Isaan warra ati madeessite sana ni ariʼatuutii; waaʼee dhukkubbii warra ati miite sanaas ni odeessu.
Because they persecuted him whom you have struck; and they have added to the grief of my wounds.
27 Yakka irratti yakka isaanitti dabali; isaan gara qajeelumma keetii hin dhufin.
Add iniquity to their iniquity; and let them not come into your righteousness.
28 Maqaan isaanii kitaaba jireenyaa keessaa haa haqamu; qajeeltota wajjinis hin galmeeffamin.
Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and let them not be written with the righteous.
29 Ani garuu dhiphinaa fi rakkina keessan jira; yaa Waaqi, fayyinni kee ol na haa qabu.
I am poor and sorrowful; but the salvation of your countenance has helped me.
30 Ani faarfannaadhaan maqaa Waaqaa nan galateeffadha; galataanis ulfina nan kennaaf.
I will praise the name of my God with a song, I will magnify him with praise;
31 Kunis sangaa caalaa, korma gaanfaa fi kottee qabu dhiʼeessuu caalaa Waaqayyoon gammachiisa.
and [this] shall please God more than a young calf having horns and hoofs.
32 Hiyyeeyyiin waan kana arganii ni gammadu; isin warri Waaqa barbaaddan garaan keessan jiraata haa taʼu!
Let the poor see and rejoice; seek the Lord diligently, and you shall live.
33 Waaqayyo rakkattoota ni dhagaʼa; namoota isaa warra hidhamanis hin tuffatu.
For the Lord hears the poor, and does not set at nothing his fettered ones.
34 Samii fi lafti, galaanonnii fi wanni isaan keessa jiraatan hundinuu isa haa leellissan.
Let the heavens and the earth raise him, the sea, and all things moving in them.
35 Waaqni Xiyoonin ni fayyisaatii; magaalaawwan Yihuudaas deebisee ni ijaara. Sabni isaas achi qubata; ni dhaalas.
For God will save Sion, and the cities of Judea shall be built; and [men] shall dwell there, and inherit it.
36 Sanyiin tajaajiltoota isaa magaalattii ni dhaalu; warri maqaa isaa jaallatanis achi jiraatu.
And the seed of his servants shall possess it, and they that love his name shall dwell therein.
