< Psalms 55 >

1 For the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A contemplation by David. Listen to my prayer, God. Do not hide yourself from my supplication.
Janjiño o ­filolohakoo ry Andrianañahare; ko mietak’ amo halalikoo.
2 Attend to me, and answer me. I am restless in my complaint, and moan
Haoño iraho, le toiño; ie tsitoboboly am-pitoreoko, toe miñeoñeoñe avao
3 because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked. For they bring suffering on me. In anger they hold a grudge against me.
ty amy feon-drafelahikoy, ami’ty fanindria’ o lo-tserekeo, ie mametsa-kasosorañe; vaho am-piloroloroañe ty atreatré’ iareo ahy.
4 My heart is severely pained within me. The terrors of death have fallen on me.
Miola ty an-troko ao, vaho midoiñ’ amako ty fangeba­hebàn-kavilasy.
5 Fearfulness and trembling have come on me. Horror has overwhelmed me.
Midoñ’amako ty firevendreveñañe naho ty fihondrahondràñe, vaho opoe’ ty anifañe.
6 I said, “Oh that I had wings like a dove! Then I would fly away, and be at rest.
Hoe raho: Ee te nanañ’ elatse hoe deho! le ho nitiliñe añe vaho nitofa;
7 Behold, then I would wander far off. I would lodge in the wilderness.” (Selah)
Eka, ho niherereake mb’eo, ho nañialo am-patrambey añe. Selà
8 “I would hurry to a shelter from the stormy wind and storm.”
Ho nifiotse mb’am-­pipalirako mb’eo, ty ami’ty tio-bey naho ty afo-rano.
9 Confuse them, Lord, and confound their language, for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
Votemboteo ry Talè, tseraho ty famele’ iareo, fa nahatrea piaroteñe naho fiolañe an-drova ao iraho.
10 Day and night they prowl around on its walls. Malice and abuse are also within her.
Handro an-kaleñe iereo ro mitingatinga ambone kijoly ey, añivo’e ao ty hatsivokarañe naho fikitrohan-draty.
11 Destructive forces are within her. Threats and lies do not depart from her streets.
Firotsahañe ty añivo’e ao, tsy mienga o kiririsa’eo ty joy naho ty fìtake.
12 For it was not an enemy who insulted me, then I could have endured it. Neither was it he who hated me who raised himself up against me, then I would have hidden myself from him.
Tsy t’ie rafelahy te mañìnje ahy, fa ho nileoko, tsy t’ie mpalaiñ’ ahy te itoabora’e, fa ho nietahako.
13 But it was you, a man like me, my companion, and my familiar friend.
Te mone ihe, rahambako, mpiamako naho rañeko,
14 We took sweet fellowship together. We walked in God’s house with company.
nimamy ty fifañohahòhan-tika, mbore nitrao-pivovotse amy màroy mb’añ’anjomban’ Añahare mb’eo.
15 Let death come suddenly on them. Let them go down alive into Sheol (Sheol h7585). For wickedness is among them, in their dwelling.
Ee t’ie ho fañahieñe mb’am-pihomaham-beo, agodoño veloñe an-tsikeokeok’ ao; amy te an-­kaloloañe ao ty kiboho’e; añivo’e ao. (Sheol h7585)
16 As for me, I will call on God. The LORD will save me.
Aa naho izaho, ho kanjieko t’Andrianañahare; vaho handrombak’ ahy t’Iehovà.
17 Evening, morning, and at noon, I will cry out in distress. He will hear my voice.
Hariva naho handro vaho an-tsipinde ty hitoreovako naho hiñeoñeoñe; vaho ho janji’e ty feoko.
18 He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me, although there are many who oppose me.
Hijebaña’e an-kanintsiñe amy fifandraparapahañe amakoy.
19 God, who is enthroned forever, will hear and answer them. (Selah) They never change and do not fear God.
Hijanjiñe t’i Andrianañahare vaho ho toiñe’e iareo; I miambesatse am-piambesa’e haehaey, Selà toe tsy miova iareo, tsy mañeveñe aman’ Añahare.
20 He raises his hands against his friends. He has violated his covenant.
F’ie mañonjo-haoke hañatreatre amo nifampilongo ama’eo, ie nifotetse amy fañina’ey,
21 His mouth was smooth as butter, but his heart was war. His words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords.
Nalama te amo solikeo o entam-palie’eo fe aly avao ty añ’ arofo’e ao; nalea ta o menakeo o saontsi’eo, te mone fibara napontsoañe.
22 Cast your burden on the LORD and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved.
Apoho am’ Iehovà o kilanka’oo, le ho tohaña’e; tsy hado’e higavingaviñe o vantañeo.
23 But you, God, will bring them down into the pit of destruction. Bloodthirsty and deceitful men shall not live out half their days, but I will trust in you.
F’ihe ry Andrianañahare: ro hampijoroboñ’ iareo an-kobon-dalek’ao; tsy hiveloma’ ondaty mampiori-dio naho mamañahio, ty an-tsasa’ o andro’eo, fa naho izaho, Ihe ro hiatoako.
