¹[Salamo abidy. Fangatahana fiarovanana sy fitarihana] Nataon'i Davida. Aminao, Jehovah ô, no anandratako ny fanahiko.

¹By David. Unto Thee, O Jehovah, my soul I lift up.

²Andriamanitro ô, Hianao no itokiako, aoka tsy ho menatra aho; aoka tsy hifalian'ny fahavaloko aho.

²My God, in Thee I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed, Let not mine enemies exult over me.

³Eny, tsy hisy ho menatra izay rehetra miandry Anao; fa izay mivadika foana no ho menatra.

³Also let none waiting on Thee be ashamed, Let the treacherous dealers without cause be ashamed.

⁴Ampahafantaro ny lalanao aho, Jehovah ô; ampianaro ny sitrakao aho.

⁴Thy ways, O Jehovah, cause me to know, Thy paths teach Thou me.

⁵Tariho amin'ny fahamarinanao aho, ka ampianaro; fa Hianao no Andriamanitry ny famonjena ahy; Hianao no andrasako mandritra ny andro.

⁵Cause me to tread in Thy truth, and teach me, For Thou [art] the God of my salvation, Near Thee I have waited all the day.

⁶Tsarovy ny antranao sy ny indrafonao, Jehovah ô, fa hatrizay hatrizay ireny.

⁶Remember Thy mercies, O Jehovah, And Thy kindnesses, for from the age [are] they.

⁷Aza ny fahotan'ny fahatanorako, na ny ratsy nataoko, no tsarovanao; fa aoka ho araka ny famindram-ponao no hahatsiarovanao ahy, noho ny fahasoavanao Jehovah ô,

⁷Sins of my youth, and my transgressions, Do not Thou remember. According to Thy kindness be mindful of me, For Thy goodness` sake, O Jehovah.

⁸Tsara sy mahitsy Jehovah, ka izany no ampianarany ny mpanota ny lalana.

⁸Good and upright [is] Jehovah, Therefore He directeth sinners in the way.

⁹Mitarika ny mpandefitra amin'ny marina Izy, ary mampianatra ny mpandefitra ny lalany.

⁹He causeth the humble to tread in judgment, And teacheth the humble His way.

¹⁰Ny lalan'i Jehovah rehetra dia famindram-po sy fahamarinana amin'izay mitandrina ny fanekeny sy ny teni-vavolombelony.

¹⁰All the paths of Jehovah [are] kindness and truth, To those keeping His covenant, And His testimonies.

¹¹Noho ny anaranao, Jehovah ô, dia mamelà ny heloko, fa lehibe izany.

¹¹For Thy name`s sake, O Jehovah, Thou hast pardoned mine iniquity, for it [is] great.

¹²Iza no lehilahy matahotra an'i Jehovah? Izy no hampianariny izay lalana tokony hofidiny.

¹²Who [is] this — the man fearing Jehovah? He directeth him in the way He doth choose.

¹³Ny fanahiny hitoetra amin'ny soa; ary ny taranany handova ny tany.

¹³His soul in good doth remain, And his seed doth possess the land.

¹⁴Ny fisainan'i Jehovah asehony amin'izay matahotra Azy, ary ny fanekeny no hampahafantariny azy.

¹⁴The secret of Jehovah [is] for those fearing Him, And His covenant — to cause them to know.

¹⁵Ny masoko mijery an'i Jehovah mandrakariva; fa Izy no nanafaka ny tongotro tamin'ny fandrika harato.

¹⁵Mine eyes [are] continually unto Jehovah, For He bringeth out from a net my feet.

¹⁶Todiho aho, ka amindrao fo, fa irery aho ka mahantra.

¹⁶Turn Thou unto me, and favour me, For lonely and afflicted [am] I.

¹⁷Ny fahorian'ny foko efa mihalehibe; afaho amin'ny fahatereko aho.

¹⁷The distresses of my heart have enlarged themselves, From my distresses bring me out.

¹⁸Jereo ny fahoriako sy ny mavesatra amiko, ka mamelà ny fahotako rehetra.

¹⁸See mine affliction and my misery, And bear with all my sins.

¹⁹Jereo ny fahavaloko, fa maro izy; ary loza ny fankahalàny ahy.

¹⁹See my enemies, for they have been many, And with violent hatred they have hated me.

²⁰Arovy ny fanahiko, ka vonjeo aho; aoka tsy ho menatra aho, fa mialoka aminao.

²⁰Keep my soul, and deliver me, Let me not be ashamed, for I trusted in Thee.

²¹Aoka ny tsi-fisian-tsiny sy ny fahitsiana no hiaro ahy; fa miandry Anao aho.Andriamanitra ô, afaho ny Isiraely, amin'ny fahoriany rehetra.

²¹Integrity and uprightness do keep me, For I have waited [on] Thee.

²²Andriamanitra ô, afaho ny Isiraely, amin'ny fahoriany rehetra.

²²Redeem Israel, O God, from all his distresses!
