Faarfannaa 87

1 Faarfannaa Ilmaan Qooraahi. Hundeen magaalaa isaa tulluu qulqulluu irra jira.

By sons of Korah. — A Psalm, a song. His foundation [is] in holy mountains.

2 Waaqayyo iddoo jireenya Yaaqoob hunda caalaa, karrawwan Xiyoon jaallata.

Jehovah is loving the gates of Zion Above all the tabernacles of Jacob.

3 Yaa magaalaa Waaqaa, waaʼee keetiif wanni kabajamaan akkana jedhamee ni dubbatama:

Honourable things are spoken in Thee, O city of God. (Selah)

4 “Ani Raʼaabii fi Baabilonin warra na beekan gidduutti maqaa nan dhaʼa; kunoo, Filisxeemii fi Xiiroos Itoophiyaa wajjin, ‘Namichi kun achitti dhalate’ jedhu.”

I mention Rahab and Babel to those knowing Me, Lo, Philistia, and Tyre, with Cush! This [one] was born there.

5 Dhugumaan waaʼee Xiyoon, “Inni kunii fi inni sun ishee keessatti dhalatan; Waaqni Waan Hunda Olii mataan isaa iyyuu ishee dhaaba” jedhama.

And of Zion it is said: Each one was born in her, And He, the Most High, doth establish her.

6 Waaqayyo yeroo saboota galmeessutti, “Namichi kun achitti dhalate” jedhee barreessa.

Jehovah doth recount in the describing of the peoples, 'This [one] was born there.' (Selah)

7 Warri faarfatanii fi warri meeshaa muuziiqaa taphatan, “Burqaan koo hundi si keessatti argama” jedhu.

Singers also as players on instruments, All my fountains [are] in Thee!
