Faarfannaa 97

1 Waaqayyo moʼeera; lafti haa gammaddu; biyyoonni qarqara galaanaa hedduunis haa ililchan.

For the same David, when his land was restored again to him. The Lord hath reigned, let the earth rejoice: let many islands be glad.

2 Duumessaa fi dukkanni limixiin isa marsaniiru; qajeelummaa fi murtii qajeelaan hundee teessoo isaa ti.

Clouds and darkness are round about him: justice and judgment are the establishment of his throne.

3 Ibiddi fuula isaa dura deemee diinota isaa naannoo isaatii fixa.

A fire shall go before him, and shall burn his enemies round about.

4 Balaqqeen isaa addunyaa ibsa; laftis argitee hollatti.

His lightnings have shone forth to the world: the earth saw and trembled.

5 Tulluuwwan fuula Waaqayyoo duratti, fuula Gooftaa lafa hundumaa durattis akkuma gagaa baqu.

The mountains melted like wax, at the presence of the Lord: at the presence of the Lord of all the earth.

6 Samiiwwan qajeelummaa isaa labsu; saboonni hundinuus ulfina isaa argu.

The heavens declared his justice: and all people saw his glory.

7 Warri fakkii waaqeffatan, kanneen waaqota tolfamoon of jajan hundi haa qaaneffaman; isin waaqonni hundinuus isa waaqeffadhaa!

Let them be all confounded that adore graven things, and that glory in their idols. Adore him, all you his angels:

8 Yaa Waaqayyo, sababii murtii keetiitiif, Xiyoon dhageessee ililchiti; gandoonni Yihuudaas ni gammadu.

Sion heard, and was glad. And the daughters of Juda rejoiced, because of thy judgments, O Lord.

9 Yaa Waaqayyo, ati lafa hundumaa irratti Waaqa Waan Hundaa Olii ti; ati waaqota hundumaa irra akka malee ol ol jetteerta.

For thou art the most high Lord over all the earth: thou art exalted exceedingly above all gods.

10 Sababii inni lubbuu amanamoota isaa eegee, harka hamootaa jalaa isaan baasuuf, warri Waaqayyoon jaallatan hammina haa jibban.

You that love the Lord, hate evil: the Lord preserveth the souls of his saints, he will deliver them out of the hand of the sinner.

11 Qajeeltota irratti ifni ni ifa; gara tolootaafis gammachuun ni dhufa.

Light is risen to the just, and joy to the right of heart.

12 Isin qajeeltonni Waaqayyotti gammadaa; maqaa isaa qulqulluus galateeffadhaa.

Rejoice, ye just, in the Lord: and give praise to the remembrance of his holiness.
