Faarfannaa 71
1 Yaa Waaqayyo, ani kooluu sitti galeera; ati gonkumaa na hin qaanessin.
In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.
2 Qajeelummaa keetiin na baasi; na oolchis; gurra kee gara kootti qabi; na fayyisis.
Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine ear unto me, and save me.
3 Ati kattaa ani kooluu itti galu, iddoo ani yeroo hunda itti baqadhu naa taʼi; ati waan kattaa koo fi daʼoo koo taateef, na baraaruuf ajaja kenni.
Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou [art] my rock and my fortress.
4 Yaa Waaqa ko, harka nama hamaa, qabaa nama jalʼaatii fi gara jabeessaa keessaa na baasi.
Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
5 Yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa, ati abdii kootii; ijoollummaa kootii kaaftees ati Waaqa ani amanadhuu dha.
For thou [art] my hope, O Lord GOD: [thou art] my trust from my youth.
6 Ani gaafan dhaladhee jalqabee sitti irkadheera; gadameessa haadha koo keessaas situ na baase. Ani yeroo hunda sin galateeffadha.
By thee have I been holden up from the womb: thou art he that took me out of my mother’s bowels: my praise [shall be] continually of thee.
7 Ani namoota baayʼeedhaaf mallattoo taʼeera; ati garuu daʼoo koo isa jabaa dha.
I am as a wonder unto many; but thou [art] my strong refuge.
8 Afaan koo guyyaa guutuu, galataa fi ulfina keetiin guutama.
Let my mouth be filled [with] thy praise [and with] thy honour all the day.
9 Yeroo ani dulloomutti ati na hin gatin; yeroo humni koo dhumuttis na hin dhiisin.
Cast me not off in the time of old age; forsake me not when my strength faileth.
10 Diinonni koo natti mariʼatuutii; warri na ajjeesuuf riphanii eeggatanis walii wajjin natti mariʼatu.
For mine enemies speak against me; and they that lay wait for my soul take counsel together,
11 Isaanis, “Waaqni isa dhiiseera; namni isa oolchu tokko iyyuu hin jiruutii faana buʼaatii qabaa” jedhu.
Saying, God hath forsaken him: persecute and take him; for [there is] none to deliver [him].
12 Yaa Waaqi, narraa hin fagaatin; yaa Waaqa ko, na gargaaruuf dafii kottu.
O God, be not far from me: O my God, make haste for my help.
13 Warri na himatan qaanaʼanii haa badan; warri na miidhuu barbaadanis tuffii fi salphina haa uffatan.
Let them be confounded [and] consumed that are adversaries to my soul; let them be covered [with] reproach and dishonour that seek my hurt.
14 Ani garuu yeroo hundumaa abdii qaba; ittuma caalchisees sin galateeffadha.
But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and more.
15 Ani yoo hammam akka inni gaʼu beekuu baadhe illee, afaan koo waaʼee qajeelummaa keetiitii fi waaʼee fayyisuu keetii guyyaa guutuu ni odeessa.
My mouth shall shew forth thy righteousness [and] thy salvation all the day; for I know not the numbers [thereof].
16 Yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa, ani dhufee hojii kee humna qabeessa sana nan odeessa; ani qajeelummaa kee qofa labsa.
I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy righteousness, [even] of thine only.
17 Yaa Waaqi, ati ijoollummaa kootii jalqabdee na barsiifteerta; anis hamma harʼaatti hojii kee dinqisiisaa sana nan labsa.
O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works.
18 Yaa Waaqayyo, yeroo ani dulloomee mataan koo arrii taʼutti illee, hamma ani humna kee dhaloota kanatti, jabina kees dhaloota dhufuuf jiru hundatti labsuutti, ati na hin dhiisin.
Now also when I am old and grayheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto [this] generation, [and] thy power to every one [that] is to come.
19 Yaa Waaqi, qajeelummaan kee samiiwwan bira gaʼa; ati waan gurguddaa hojjetteerta; yaa Waaqi, kan akka keetii eenyu?
Thy righteousness also, O God, [is] very high, who hast done great things: O God, who [is] like unto thee!
20 Ati rakkinaa fi dhiphina baayʼee na argisiifteerta; taʼus jireenya koo deebiftee ni haaromsita, qilee lafaa keessaas deebiftee ol na baafta.
[Thou], which hast shewed me great and sore troubles, shalt quicken me again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
21 Ulfina koo ni guddifta; amma illee na jajjabeessita.
Thou shalt increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.
22 Yaa Waaqa ko, ani amanamummaa keetiif, kiraaraan sin faarfadha; Yaa Qulqullicha Israaʼel ani kiraaraan faarfannaa galataa siif faarfadha.
I will also praise thee with the psaltery, [even] thy truth, O my God: unto thee will I sing with the harp, O thou Holy One of Israel.
23 Yommuu ani faarfannaa galataa siif faarfadhutti, hidhiin koo, lubbuun koo kan ati furtes guddisanii ni ililchu.
My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed.
24 Warri na miidhuu barbaadan, waan qaanaʼanii burjaajaʼaniif arrabni koo guyyaa guutuu qajeelummaa kee odeessa.
My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long: for they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame, that seek my hurt.
