Faarfannaa 8

1 Dura buʼaa faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Daawit kan Gitiitiidhaan faarfatamu. Yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa keenya, maqaan kee lafa hundatti akkam ulfina qabeessa! Ati ulfina kee samiiwwan irratti diriirsiteerta.

To him that excelleth on Gittith. A Psalme of Dauid. O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy Name in all the worlde! which hast set thy glory aboue the heauens.

2 Sababii diinota keetiitiif, amajaajii fi nama haaloo baafatu afaan qabachiisuuf jettee, afaan daaʼimmaniitii fi mucoolii harma hodhanii irraa galata qopheessiteerta.

Out of the mouth of babes and suckelings hast thou ordeined strength, because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemie and the auenger.

3 Yommuu ani hojii quba keetii, samiiwwan kee, jiʼaa fi urjiiwwan ati hundeessitee ilaalutti,

When I beholde thine heauens, euen the workes of thy fingers, the moone and the starres which thou hast ordeined,

4 akka ati isaaf yaadduuf namni maali? Akka isaaf dhimmituuf ilmi namaa maali?

What is man, say I, that thou art mindefull of him? and the sonne of man, that thou visitest him?

5 Ati xinnoo ishee ofii keetii gad isa goote; ulfinaa fi kabajaan isa gonfite.

For thou hast made him a little lower then God, and crowned him with glory and worship.

6 Hojii harka keetii irratti bulchaa isa goote; waan hundas miilla isaa jala galchite;

Thou hast made him to haue dominion in the workes of thine hands: thou hast put all things vnder his feete:

7 bushaayee fi loon hunda, bineensota bosonaas,

All sheepe and oxen: yea, and the beastes of the fielde:

8 simbirroota samii irraa, qurxummii galaanaa, waan daandii galaanaatiin darbu hundas miilla isaa jala galchite.

The foules of the ayre, and the fish of the sea, and that which passeth through the paths of the seas.

9 Yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa keenya, maqaan kee lafa hundumaa irratti akkam ulfina qabeessa!

O Lord our Lord, howe excellent is thy Name in all the world!
