1{To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.} I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a muzzle, while the wicked is before me.
1[Ny fahatsinontsinon'izao fiainana izao] Ho an'ny mpiventy hira. Ho an'i Jedotona Salamo nataon'i Davida. Hoy izaho: hitandrina ny lalako aho ka tsy hanota amin'ny lelako; hasiako fehim-bava ny vavako, raha mbola eo anatrehako ny ratsy fanahy.
2I was dumb with silence, I held my peace from good; and my sorrow was stirred.
2Nangina mihitsy aho, namihim-bava ka tsy nilaza na dia ny tsara aza, dia nihetsika mafy ny fanaintainan'ny aretiko.[Na; na dia teo anatrehan'ny tsara fanahy aza]
3My heart burned within me; the fire was kindled in my musing: I spoke with my tongue,
3Nafana ny foko tato anatiko; raha nieritreritra aho, dia nisy afo nirehitra, ka niteny tamin'ny lelako aho.
4Make me to know, Jehovah, mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is: I shall know how frail I am.
4Jehovah ô,ampahafantaro ny farako aho sy izay ohatry ny androko; aoka ho fantatro fa olon-kandalo aho.
5Behold, thou hast made my days [as] hand-breadths, and my lifetime is as nothing before thee; verily, every man, [even] the high placed, is altogether vanity. Selah.
5Indro efa nataonao vodivoam-pelatanana ny androko, ary ny fiainako toy ny tsinontsinona eo anatrehanao. Zava-poana ihany tokoa ny olon-drehetra, na dia matanjaka aza.[Na: Natao ho zava-poana ihany tokoa ny olona rehetra]
6Verily, man walketh in a vain show; verily they are disquieted in vain; he heapeth up [riches], and knoweth not who shall gather them.
6Aloka tokoa no fandehandehan'ny olona; zava-poana tokoa no itabatabàny; mihary harena izy nefa tsy fantany izay ho tompon'izany.
7And now, what wait I for, Lord? my hope is in thee.
7Ary ankehitriny, inona no andrasako Tompo ô? Hianao no antenaiko.
8Deliver me from all my transgressions; make me not the reproach of the foolish.
8Manafaha ahy amin'ny fahadisoako rehetra; aza manao ahy ho fanakoran'ny adala.
9I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; for *thou* hast done [it].
9Mangina aho ka tsy miloa-bava fa ianao no nanao izao.
10Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thy hand.
10Aoka hitsahatra ny fikapohanao ahy; reraka aho azon'ny famelin'ny tananao.
11When thou with rebukes dost correct a man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely, every man is vanity. Selah.
11Anatra noho ny fahadisoany no ananaranao ny olona, ka manimba ny hatsaran-tarehiny tahaka ny kalalao ianao; zava-poana tokoa ny olona rehetra.
12Hear my prayer, Jehovah, and give ear unto my cry; be not silent at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, a sojourner, like all my fathers.
12Mandrenesa ny fivavako Jehovah ô,ary mihainoa ny fitarainako; aza mangina amin'ny ranomasoko fa vahiny aminao aho sy mpivahiny tahaka ny razako rehetra.Aza atrehinao aho aloha, dia ho miramirana indray, dieny aho tsy mbola lasa ka tsy ho eto intsony.
13Look away from me, and let me recover strength, before I go hence and be no more.
13Aza atrehinao aho aloha, dia ho miramirana indray, dieny aho tsy mbola lasa ka tsy ho eto intsony.
