Faarfannaa 77
1 Dura Buʼaa Faarfattootaatiif. Yeduutuuniif. Faarfannaa Asaaf. Ani gargaarsaaf gara Waaqaatti nan iyyadhe; ani akka Waaqni na dhagaʼuuf nan iyyadhe.
I will cry to God with my voice, even to God with my voice, and he will give ear to me.
2 Yeroo rakkina kootiitti Gooftaa nan barbaaddadhe; halkanis utuu hin dadhabin harka koo nan diriirfadhe; lubbuun koos jajjabaachuu didde.
In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord. My hand was stretched out in the night, and slacked not. My soul refused to be comforted.
3 Yaa Waaqi, ani yommuun si yaadadhu nan aada; ani irra deddeebiʼee nan yaade; hafuurri koos ni laafe.
I remember God, and am disquieted. I complain, and my spirit is overwhelmed. (Selah)
4 Ati akka iji koo hin dunuunfanne goote; ani akka malee lubbamee dubbachuu iyyuu dadhabe.
Thou have held my eyelids watching. I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5 Ani waaʼee bara durii, waaʼee waggoota durii duriis nan yaade;
I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
6 ani halkaniin faarfannaa koo nan yaadadhe. Ani irra deddeebiʼee na yaade; hafuurri koos akkana jedhee qorate:
I call to remembrance my song in the night. I commune with my own heart, and my spirit makes diligent search.
7 “Gooftaan bara baraan nama gataa? Inni deebiʼee garaa hin laafuu?
Will the Lord cast off forever? And will he be favorable no more?
8 Araarri isaa bara baraan badee? Waadaan isaa bara baraan guutamuu dhabee?
Has his loving kindness entirely gone forever? Does his promise fail for evermore?
9 Waaqni arjoomuu irraanfateeraa? Inni aariidhaan gara laafina isaa dhiiseeraa?”
Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he in anger shut up his tender mercies? (Selah)
10 Anis, “Harki mirgaa kan Waaqa Waan Hundaa Olii jijjiirameera jedhee yaaduun koo, dadhabbii koo ti” nan jedhe.
And I said, This is my infirmity, the change of the right hand of the Most High.
11 Ani hojii Waaqayyoo nan yaadadha; dhugumaan dinqii kee kan durii nan yaadadhaa.
I will make mention of the deeds of Jehovah, for I will remember thy wonders of old.
12 Ani waan ati hojjette hunda irra deddeebiʼee nan yaada; waaʼee hojii keetii illee nan dubbadha.
I will meditate also upon all thy work, and muse on thy doings.
13 Yaa Waaqi, karaan kee qulqulluu dha. Waaqni guddaan akka Waaqa keenyaa eessa jira?
Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary. Who is a great god like God?
14 Ati Waaqa hojii dinqii hojjettuu dha; saboota gidduuttis humna kee ni argisiifta.
Thou are the God who does wonders. Thou have made known thy strength among the peoples.
15 Irree kee cimaadhaan saba kee, sanyii Yaaqoobii fi sanyii Yoosef furteerta.
With thine arm thou have redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)
16 Yaa Waaqi, bishaanonni si argan; bishaanonni si arganii sodaatan; tuujubawwan ni hollatan.
The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee. They were afraid. The depths also trembled.
17 Duumessi bishaan gad dhangalaase; samiiwwan ni qaqawweessaʼan; xiyyi kees qixa hundaan balaqqise.
The clouds poured out water. The skies sent out a sound. Thine arrows also went abroad.
18 Bakakkaan kee bubbee hamaa keessaa dhagaʼame; balaqqeesi kee addunyaa ibse; laftis hollattee sochoote.
The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lightened the world. The earth trembled and shook.
19 Daandiin kee galaana keessa, karaan kee immoo bishaanota gurguddaa keessa baʼa; garuu faanni kee hin argamne.
Thy way was in the sea, and thy paths in the great waters. And thy footsteps were not known.
20 Ati harka Museetii fi harka Arooniin, saba kee akka bushaayeetti geggeessite.
Thou led thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
