Faarfannaa 85

1 Dura Buʼaa Faarfattootaatiif. Faarfannaa Ilmaan Qooraahi. Yaa Waaqayyo, ati lafa keetiif arjoomteerta; boojuu Yaaqoobis deebifteerta.

For the music director. A psalm of the descendants of Korah Lord, you have shown your kindness to your land; you have restored Jacob's prosperity.

2 Ati balleessaa uummata keetii dhiifteertaaf; cubbuu isaanii hundumaas dhoksiteerta.

You took away your people's guilt; you forgave all their sins. (Selah)

3 Dheekkamsa kee hunda fageessiteerta; aarii kee sodaachisaa sana irraas deebiteerta.

You took back your fury; you turned away from your fierce anger.

4 Yaa Waaqa Fayyisaa keenya, iddoo keenyatti nu deebisi; dheekkamsa kees nurraa qabi.

Bring us back to you, God of our salvation! Take away your anger towards us.

5 Ati bara baraan nutti aartaa? Dheekkamsa kee dhaloota tokko irraa dhaloota kaanitti dabarsitaa?

Are you going to be furious with us forever? Will you stay angry with us for all future generations?

6 Akka sabni kee sitti gammaduuf, ati lubbuu nutti hin deebiftuu?

Won't you restore our lives so your people can find happiness in you?

7 Yaa Waaqayyo, araara kee nutti mulʼisi; fayyina kees nuu kenni.

Show us your trustworthy love, Lord! Give us your salvation!

8 Ani waan Waaqayyo Waaqni jedhu nan dhaggeeffadha; inni saba isaa qulqullootaaf nagaa abdachiisa; isaan garuu gara gowwummaatti hin deebiʼin.

Let me hear what God has to say. God speaks peace to his people, to those who trust in him. But they must not return to their foolish ways.

9 Akka ulfinni isaa lafa keenya irra jiraatuuf, fayyisuun isaa dhugumaan warra isa sodaatanitti dhiʼoo jira.

Truly God's salvation is with those who do as he says. His glorious presence will live with us in our land.

10 Jaalallii fi amanamummaan wal gaʼan; qajeelummaa fi nagaan wal dhungatan.

Trustworthiness and faithful love join together; goodness and peace have kissed each other.

11 Amanamummaan lafa keessaa burqa; qajeelummaan immoo samii irraa gad ilaala.

What is true grows up from the earth; what is right looks down from heaven.

12 Waaqayyo dhugumaan waan gaarii ni kenna; lafti keenyas midhaan ishee ni kenniti.

The Lord will certainly give us all that is good, and our land will produce fine crops.

13 Qajeelummaan fuula isaa dura deema; miilla isaatiifis karaa qopheessa.

Truth and right go ahead of him to prepare a path for him to walk on.
