Psalms 37
1 [A Psalm] of David. Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, neither be thou envious against them that work unrighteousness.
Faarfannaa Daawit. Ati sababii namoota hamootiif jettee hin aarin yookaan warra jalʼina hojjetanitti hin hinaafin.
2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
Isaan akkuma margaa dafanii coollagu; akkuma biqiltuu misee dafanii gogu.
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; dwell in the land, and follow after faithfulness.
Waaqayyoon amanadhu; waan gaariis hojjedhu; biyyattii keessa jiraadhu; nagaas qabaadhu.
4 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
Waaqayyotti gammadi; innis hawwii garaa keetii siif guuta.
5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him, and he shall bring it to pass.
Karaa kee Waaqayyotti kennadhu; isa amanadhu; inni siif milkeessa.
6 Add he shall make thy righteousness to go forth as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
Inni qajeelummaa kee akka aduu ganamaatti, murtii kee immoo akka aduu saafaatti ibsa.
7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
Waaqayyo duratti calʼisi; obsaanis isa eeggadhu; nama karaan isaa qajeeleefitti, kan hammina hojjetuttis hin hinaafin.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself, [it tendeth] only to evil-doing.
Aarii irraa of eegi; dheekkamsa irraas deebiʼi; hin aarin; aariin hammina qofatti nama geessaatii.
9 For evil-doers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the land.
Namoonni hamoon ni balleeffamuutii; warri Waaqayyoon abdatan garuu lafa dhaalu.
10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and he shall not be.
Namoonni hamoon yeroo xinnoodhaaf malee siʼachi hin jiraatan; yoo ati isaan barbaadde illee hin argaman.
11 But the meek shall inherit the land; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
Garraamonni garuu lafa ni dhaalu; nagaa guddaadhaanis ni gammadu.
12 The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.
Namoonni hamoon nama qajeelaatti mariʼatu; ilkaan isaaniis isatti qaratu;
13 The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.
Gooftaan hamootatti ni kolfa; inni akka guyyaan isaanii dhiʼaate ni beekaatii.
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow; to cast down the poor and needy, to slay such as be upright in the way:
Namoonni hamoon hiyyeeyyii fi rakkattoota lafaan dhaʼuudhaaf, warra karaan isaanii qajeelaa taʼe immoo gorraʼuudhaaf, goraadee isaanii luqqifatu; iddaa isaaniis ni dabsatu.
15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
Goraadeen isaanii garuu garaadhuma isaanii waraana; iddaan isaaniis ni caccaba.
16 Better is a little that the righteous hath than the abundance of many wicked.
Badhaadhummaa hamoonni baayʼeen qaban irra, waan xinnoo namni qajeelaan qabu wayya;
17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.
humni hamootaa ni cabaatii; Waaqayyo garuu qajeeltota jabeessee ni dhaaba.
18 The LORD knoweth the days of the perfect: and their inheritance shall be for ever.
Waaqayyo bara tolootaa ni beeka; dhaalli isaaniis bara baraan jiraata.
19 They shall not be ashamed in the time of evil: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
Isaan bara hamaa keessa hin qaanaʼan; bara beelaa keessas ni quufu.
20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the excellency of the pastures: they shall consume; in smoke shall they consume away.
Namoonni hamoon garuu ni barbadaaʼu; diinonni Waaqayyoos akkuma miidhagina daraaraa dirree ti; isaan ni badu; akkuma aaraa ni badu.
21 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous dealeth graciously, and giveth.
Namoonni hamoon ni liqeeffatu; garuu deebisanii of irraa hin baasan; qajeeltonni garuu arjummaadhaan kennu;
22 For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the land; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off.
warri Waaqayyo eebbisu lafa ni dhaalu; warri inni abaaru garuu ni balleeffamu.
23 A man’s goings are established of the LORD; and he delighteth in his way.
Adeemsi nama Waaqayyo biraa ajajama; inni karaa namicha sanaatti ni gammada.
24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.
Inni yoo gufate illee lafa hin gaʼu; Waaqayyo harka isaatiin qabee isa dhaabaatii.
25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging [their] bread.
Ani dargaggeessan ture; amma immoo dulloomeera; garuu qajeeltonni gatamuu isaanii yookaan ijoolleen isaaniis buddeena kadhachuu isaanii hin argine.
26 All the day long he dealeth graciously, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.
Qajeeltonni yeroo hundumaa ni arjoomu; ni liqeessus; ijoolleen isaaniis ni eebbifamu.
27 Depart from evil, and do good; dwell for evermore.
Waan hamaa irraa deebiʼiitii waan gaarii hojjedhu; yoos ati bara baraan ni jiraatta.
28 For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
Waaqayyo murtii qajeelaa jaallataatii; warra isaaf amanamanis hin gatu. Isaanis bara baraan ni eegamu; sanyiin hamootaa garuu ni balleeffama.
29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
Qajeeltonni lafa ni dhaalu; bara baraanis ishee irra ni jiraatu.
30 The mouth of the righteous talketh of wisdom, and his tongue speaketh judgment.
Afaan nama qajeelaa ogummaa dubbata; arrabni isaas murtii qajeelaa labsa.
31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
Seerri Waaqa isaa garaa isaa keessa jira; miilli isaas hin mucucaatu.
32 The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
Namoonni hamoon qajeeltota gaadu; isaan ajjeesuus ni barbaadu;
33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
Waaqayyo garuu harka isaaniitti jara hin dhiisu yookaan yommuu isaan murtiitti dhiʼeeffamanitti, akka isaanitti murteeffamu hin eeyyamu.
34 Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.
Waaqayyoon eeggadhu; karaa isaas eegi. Inni akka ati lafa dhaaltuuf ulfina siif kenna; atis badiisa hamootaa ni argita.
35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green tree in its native soil.
Nama hamaa fi gara jabeessa, isaa akkuma muka iddoon isaa itti tolee jiru nan arge.
36 But one passed by, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
Ergasiis achiin nan darbe; inni garuu achi hin turre; ani cimsee isa nan barbaade; inni garuu hin argamne.
37 Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the latter end of [that] man is peace.
Nama mudaa hin qabne yaadatti qabadhu; tolootas ilaali; sanyiin nama nagaa hin baduutii.
38 As for transgressors, they shall be destroyed together: the latter end of the wicked shall be cut off.
Cubbamoonni hundinuu garuu ni barbadeeffamu; galgalli nama hamaas hin tolu.
39 But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strong hold in the time of trouble.
Fayyinni qajeeltotaa Waaqayyo biraa dhufa; inni yeroo rakkinaatti daʼoo isaanii ti.
40 And the LORD helpeth them, and rescueth them: he rescueth them from the wicked, and saveth them, because they have taken refuge in him.
Waaqayyo isaan gargaara; isaan oolchas; harka namoota hamoo jalaa isaan baasa; isaan baraaras; isaan isatti kooluu galaniiruutii.
