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 the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David. O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.

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 sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thy enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.

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

When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

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

What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son 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 than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.

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

Thou hast made him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:

7 bushaayee fi loon hunda, bineensota bosonaas,

All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;

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

The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatever passeth through the paths of the seas.

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

O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!
