1[Fitarainana nataon'izay tra-panenjehana mafy] Ho an'ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon'i Davida. Jehovah ô, Hianao no ialofako; aoka tsy ho menatra akory mandrakizay aho; vonjeo amin'ny fahamarinanao aho.
1To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. In Thee, O Jehovah, I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed to the age, In Thy righteousness deliver me.
2Atongilano amiko ny sofinao, faingàna hamonjy ahy; aoka ho vatolampiko fiarovana mafy Hianao sy batery fiarovana hamonjena ahy.
2Incline unto me Thine ear hastily, deliver me, Be to me for a strong rock, For a house of bulwarks to save me.
3Fa harambatoko sy batery fiarovana ho ahy Hianao; ary noho ny anaranao no hitondrànao sy hitarihanao ahy.
3For my rock and my bulwark [art] Thou, For Thy name`s sake lead me and tend me.
4Hanafaka ahy amin'ny fandrika harato izay nafeniny hamandrihany ahy Hianao; fa Hianao no fiarovana mafy ho ahy.
4Bring me out from the net that they hid for me, For Thou [art] my strength.
5Eo an-tananao no atolotro ny fanahiko; fa efa nanavotra ahy Hianao, Jehovah ô, Andriamanitry ny fahamarinana.
5Into Thy hand I commit my spirit, Thou hast redeemed me, Jehovah God of truth.
6Halako izay mivavaka amin'ny sampy; fa Jehovah kosa no itokiako.[Heb: zava-poana mandainga]
6I have hated the observers of lying vanities, And I toward Jehovah have been confident.
7Hifaly sy ho ravoravo amin'ny famindram-ponao aho; fa nahita ny fahantrako Hianao, ka nahafantatra ny fahorian'ny fanahiko,
7I rejoice, and am glad in Thy kindness, In that Thou hast seen mine affliction, Thou hast known in adversities my soul.
8ary tsy mba nangeja ahy teo an-tànan'ny fahavalo; fa efa nampitoetra ny tongotro eo amin'ny malalaka Hianao.
8And Thou hast not shut me up, Into the hand of an enemy, Thou hast caused my feet to stand in a broad place.
9Mamindrà fo amiko, Jehovah ô, fa azom-pahoriana aho; simban'alahelo ny masoko sy ny fanahiko ary ny tenako.
9Favour me, O Jehovah, for distress [is] to me, Mine eye, my soul, and my body Have become old by provocation.
10Fa lanin'alahelo ny aiko, sady lanim-pisentoana ny taonako; Tsy manan-kery aho noho ny heloko, ary efa lany ny taolako.
10For my life hath been consumed in sorrow And my years in sighing. Feeble because of mine iniquity hath been my strength, And my bones have become old.
11Noho ny ataon'ny fahavaloko rehetra dia efa tonga fandatsa aho, eny, na dia amin'ny namako aza,sady atahoran'ny olom-pantatro aho; izay mahita ahy eny ivelany mandositra ahy.
11Among all mine adversaries I have been a reproach, And to my neighbours exceedingly, And a fear to mine acquaintances, Those seeing me without — fled from me.
12Efa hadino tahaka ny olona maty izay tsy tsaroana intsony aho; tahaka ny vilany ariana aho.
12I have been forgotten as dead out of mind, I have been as a perishing vessel.
13Fa mandre ny endrikendriky ny maro aho; misy fampangorohoroana manodidina, raha miara-mioko hamely ahy izy, ka miray tetika hahafaty ny aiko.
13For I have heard an evil account of many, Fear [is] round about. In their being united against me, To take my life they have devised,
14Nefa izaho matoky Anao, Jehovah ô; hoy izaho: Andriamanitro Hianao.
14And I on Thee — I have trusted, O Jehovah, I have said, `Thou [art] my God.`
15Eo an-tananao ny androko; Vonjeo aho tsy ho azon'ny tanan'ny fahavaloko sy izay manenjika ahy.
15In Thy hand [are] my times, Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, And from my pursuers.
16Ampamirapirato amin'ny mpanomponao ny tavanao; vonjeo amin'ny famindram-ponao aho.
16Cause Thy face to shine on Thy servant, Save me in Thy kindness.
17Aoka tsy ho menatra aho, Jehovah ô, satria miantso Anao; fa aoka kosa ho menatra ny ratsy fanahy ka hangina any amin'ny fiainan-tsi-hita. [Heb: Sheola]
17O Jehovah, let me not be ashamed, For I have called Thee, let the wicked be ashamed, Let them become silent to Sheol.
18Aoka hangina ny molotra mandainga, izay miteny sahisahy hanohitra ny marina, amin'ny avonavona sy ny fanamavoana.
18Let lips of falsehood become dumb, That are speaking against the righteous, Ancient sayings, in pride and contempt.
19Akory re ny haben'ny zava-tsoanao voarakitrao ho an'ny matahotra Anao! dia izay nataonao teo anatrehan'ny zanak'olombelona ho an'izay mialoka aminao!
19How abundant is Thy goodness, That Thou hast laid up for those fearing Thee,
20Hanafina azy ao amin'ny fiafenana eo anatrehanao Hianao, mba tsy ho tratry ny teti-dratsy ataon'ny olona izy; hampiery azy ao an-tranonao Hianao, mba tsy ho azon'ny lela mifanditra izy.
20Thou hast wrought for those trusting in Thee, Before sons of men. Thou hidest them in the secret place of Thy presence, From artifices of man, Thou concealest them in a tabernacle, From the strife of tongues.
21Isaorana anie Jehovah; fa nataony mahagaga ny famindram-pony tamiko tao an-tanàna mimanda.
21Blessed [is] Jehovah, For He hath made marvellous His kindness To me in a city of bulwarks.
22Fa hoy izaho tamin'ny fahatairako; voafongotra tsy ho eo imasonao aho; kanjo nihaino ny feon'ny fifonako ihany Hianao, raha nitaraina taminao aho.
22And I — I have said in my haste, `I have been cut off from before Thine eyes,` But Thou hast heard the voice of my supplications, In my crying unto Thee.
23Tiava an'i Jehovah, ry olony masina rehetra; miaro ny marina Jehovah, ary mamaly dia mamaly ny mpiavonavona Izy.Mahereza, ary aoka hatanjaka ny fonareo, dia ianareo rehetra izay manantena an'i Jehovah.
23Love Jehovah, all ye His saints, Jehovah is keeping the faithful, And recompensing abundantly a proud doer.
24Mahereza, ary aoka hatanjaka ny fonareo, dia ianareo rehetra izay manantena an'i Jehovah.
24Be strong, and He strengtheneth your heart, All ye who are waiting for Jehovah!
