¹[Ny fahatokian'ny olo-marina an'Andriamanitra, na dia manakaiky azy aza ny manjo ny sasany] Ny mitoetra ao amin'ny fierena izay an'ny Avo Indrindra Dia monina eo ambanin'ny aloky ny Tsitoha.

¹He who is dwelling In the secret place of the Most High, In the shade of the Mighty lodgeth habitually,

²Izaho hilaza an'i Jehovah hoe: Fialofako sy batery fiarovana ho ahy Izy Ary Andriamanitro, Izay hitokiako.

²He is saying of Jehovah, `My refuge, and my bulwark, my God, I trust in Him,`

³Fa Izy no hanafaka anao amin'ny fandriky ny mpihaza sy ny areti-mandoza.

³For He delivereth thee from the snare of a fowler, From a calamitous pestilence.

⁴Ny volon'elany no anaronany anao, Ary ao ambanin'ny elany no hialofanao; Ho ampinga kely sy ampinga lehibe ny fahamarinany.

⁴With His pinion He covereth thee over, And under His wings thou dost trust, A shield and buckler [is] His truth.

⁵Tsy hatahotra ny horohoro nony alina ianao, Na ny zana-tsipìka manidina nony andro,

⁵Thou art not afraid of fear by night, Of arrow that flieth by day,

⁶Na ny areti-mandringana mandeha amin'ny maizina, Na ny fandringanana mandripaka amin'ny mitataovovonana.

⁶Of pestilence in thick darkness that walketh, Of destruction that destroyeth at noon,

⁷Na dia hisy arivo aza lavo eo anilanao sy iray alina eo an-kavananao, Dia tsy hihatra aminao izany

⁷There fall at thy side a thousand, And a myriad at thy right hand, Unto thee it cometh not nigh.

⁸Hijery maso fotsiny ianao,Ka ho hitanao ny hamaliana ny ratsy fanahy.

⁸But with thine eyes thou lookest, And the reward of the wicked thou seest,

⁹Satria hoy ianao: Jehovah ô, Hianao no aroko, Sady nataonao ho fonenanao ny Avo Indrindra,

⁹(For Thou, O Jehovah, [art] my refuge,) The Most High thou madest thy habitation.

¹⁰Dia tsy hisy loza hanjo anao, Na aretina hanakaiky ny lainao.

¹⁰Evil happeneth not unto thee, And a plague cometh not near thy tent,

¹¹Fa Izy handidy ny anjeliny ny aminao Mba hiaro anao eny amin'izay rehetra halehanao.

¹¹For His messengers He chargeth for thee, To keep thee in all thy ways,

¹²Eny an-tànany no hitondran'ireo anao, Fandrao ho tafintohina amin'ny vato ny tongotrao.

¹²On the hands they bear thee up, Lest thou smite against a stone thy foot.

¹³Ny liona masiaka sy ny vipera hodiavinao; Ny liona tanora sy ny menarana no hohitsahinao.

¹³On lion and asp thou treadest, Thou trampest young lion and dragon.

¹⁴Satria Izaho no niraiketan'ny fitiavany, Dia hamonjy azy Aho, Hanandratra azy ho any amin'ny avo Aho, satria mahalala ny anarako izy

¹⁴Because in Me he hath delighted, I also deliver him — I set him on high, Because he hath known My name.

¹⁵Hiantso Ahy izy, dia hamaly azy Aho; Ho eo aminy Aho, raha ory izy; Hamonjy sy hanome voninahitra azy Aho.Hovokisako fahela-velona izy Ary hasehoko azy ny famonjeko.

¹⁵He doth call Me, and I answer him, I [am] with him in distress, I deliver him, and honour him.

¹⁶Hovokisako fahela-velona izy Ary hasehoko azy ny famonjeko.

¹⁶With length of days I satisfy him, And I cause him to look on My salvation!
