O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? why doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?
|
ለከ ፡ ወእጼውዕ ፡ ስመከ ፤
|
2 |
Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old; the rod of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed; this mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt.
|
ረከብኩ ፡ ጊዜሁ ፤ ወአንሰ ፡ ጽድቀ ፡ እኴንን ።
|
3 |
Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations; even all that the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.
|
አጽናዕኩ ፡ አዕማዲሃ ።
|
4 |
Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up their ensigns for signs.

ይኤብሱ ፡ ኢያንሥኡ ፡ ቀርኖሙ ።
|
5 |
A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick trees.

|
እግዚአብሔር ፡ መኰንን ፡ ውእቱ ፤
|
7 |
They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, they have defiled by casting down the dwelling place of thy name to the ground.

|
8 |
They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.
|
ኵሎሙ ፡ ኃጥኣነ ፡ ምድር ።
|
9 |
We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long.
|
ወአንሰ ፡ እትፌሣሕ ፡ ለዓለም ፤ ወእዜምር ፡ ለአምላከ ፡ ያዕቆብ ።
|
10 |
O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever?
|
አቅርንተ ፡ ጻድቃን ።
