¹Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation.

¹[Salamo hatao amin'ny maraina, milaza ny amin'ny olona mahazo manatona an'Andriamanitra, sy ny hitsarana ny ratsy fanahy] Ho an'ny mpiventy hira. Hampiarahina amin'ny sodina. Salamo nataon'i Davida. Jehovah ô, henoy ny teniko; fantaro ny eritreritro.

²Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.

²Henoy ny feon'ny fitarainako, ry Mpanjakako sy Andriamanitro ô;fa Hianao no ivavahako.

³My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

³Jehovah ô, maraina no handrenesanao ny feoko; maraina no hivavahako aminao, ka hanandrandra aho.[Heb: handaharako]

⁴For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.

⁴Fa tsy Andriamanitra mankasitraka izay ratsy Hianao; tsy hitoetra aminao ny ratsy.

⁵The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

⁵Tsy hahazo mijanona eo imasonao ny mpirehareha; halanao ny mpanao ratsy rehetra.

⁶Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.

⁶Haringanao ny mpiteny lainga;ny olona mpandatsa-drà sy mpamitaka dia ataon'i Jehovah ho zava-betaveta.

⁷But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.

⁷Fa izaho kosa noho ny haben'ny famindram-ponao dia hiditra ao an-tranonao; hiankohoka manatrika ny lapanao masina amin'ny fahatahorana anao aho.

⁸Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.

⁸Jehovah ô, tariho amin'ny fahamarinanao aho noho ny amin'ny mpampahory ahy; ataovy marina eo anoloako ny lalanao.

⁹For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.

⁹Fa tsy misy azo itokiana ny aloaky ny vavany; ny ao anatiny dia tena faharatsiana; fasana misokatra ny tendany. Mandambolambo ny lelany izy.[Na: lavaka mitanatana]

¹⁰Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.

¹⁰Helohy izy, Andriamanitra ô; Aoka ho lavon'ny saina ataony izy; Roahy izy noho ny haben'ny fahotany, satria efa niodina taminao.

¹¹But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.

¹¹Dia hifaly izay rehetra mialoka aminao, hihoby mandrakariva izy, koa miarova azy Hianao; ka dia ho ravoravo aminao izay tia ny anaranao.Fa Hianao, Jehovah ô, mitahy ny marina; fankasitrahana no ataonao manodidina azy toy ny ampinga lehibe.

¹²For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

¹²Fa Hianao, Jehovah ô, mitahy ny marina; fankasitrahana no ataonao manodidina azy toy ny ampinga lehibe.
