Psalms 55
1 For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Maskil of David. Listen to my prayer, O God, and do not ignore my plea.
Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Hampiarahina amin’ ny valiha. Maskila nataon’ i Davida. Mihainoa ny fivavako, Andriamanitra ô, ary aza miery amin’ ny fitarainako.
2 Attend to me and answer me. I am restless in my complaint, and distraught
Henoy aho, ka valio; miriorio ny eritreritro, ka mitoloko aho,
3 at the voice of the enemy, at the pressure of the wicked. For they release disaster upon me and revile me in their anger.
Noho ny feon’ ny fahavalo sy ny fampahorian’ ny ratsy fanahy; fa mampianjera loza amiko ireny, ary amin’ ny fahatezerana no ankahalany ahy.
4 My heart murmurs within me, and the terrors of death assail me.
Mangorohoro ato anatiko ny foko, ary mamely ahy ny tahotra ny fahafatesana.
5 Fear and trembling grip me, and horror has overwhelmed me.
Tahotra sy hovitra no mahazo ahy, ary manafotra ahy ny horohoro.
6 I said, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and find rest.
Ka hoy izaho: enga anie ka manana elatra tahaka ny voromailala aho, dia handositra aho ka hahita izay hitoerako;
7 How far away I would flee! In the wilderness I would remain.
Eny, handositra lavitra aho ka hitoetra any an-efitra. (Sela)
8 I would hurry to my shelter, far from this raging tempest.”
Handeha faingana aho hamonjy fialofana, mba tsy ho azon’ ny tafio-drivotra sy ny ranonoram-baratra.
9 O Lord, confuse and confound their speech, for I see violence and strife in the city.
Aringano izy, ary akoroy ny fiteniny, Tompo ô; fa mahita loza sy ady ao an-tanàna aho.
10 Day and night they encircle the walls, while malice and trouble lie within.
Hodidininy andro aman’ alina eny ambonin ny mandany io; ary heloka sy fampahoriana no ao aminy;
11 Destruction is within; oppression and deceit never leave the streets.
Ratsy no ao anatiny; ary ny fitaka sy ny fanangolena tsy mba miala amin’ ny lalàmbeny.
12 For it is not an enemy who insults me; that I could endure. It is not a foe who rises against me; from him I could hide.
Fa tsy fahavalo no nanaratsy ahy, ― fa raha izany, dia niaritra ihany aho; tsy olona nankahala ahy no nanandra-tena namely ahy, fa raha izany, dia niery azy aho;
13 But it is you, a man like myself, my companion and close friend.
Fa ianao, lehilahy mitovy saranga amiko, namako sy sakaizako indrindra,
14 We shared sweet fellowship together; we walked with the crowd into the house of God.
Dia isika izay nifankamamy resaka ka niara-nandeha tamin’ ny maro ho ao an-tranon’ Andriamanitra.
15 Let death seize them by surprise; let them go down to Sheol alive, for evil is with them in their homes. (Sheol h7585)
Aoka hanampoka azy ny fahafatesana. Aoka hidina velona any amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita izy; fa ratsy no ao amin’ ny fonenany, dia ao afovoany. (Sheol h7585)
16 But I call to God, and the LORD saves me.
Raha izaho, dia Andriamanitra no hantsoiko; ary Jehovah no hamonjy ahy.
17 Morning, noon, and night, I cry out in distress, and He hears my voice.
Hariva sy maraina ary mitatao vovonana no hitarainako sy hitolokoako; dia hihaino ny feoko Izy,
18 He redeems my soul in peace from the battle waged against me, even though many oppose me.
Ka hanavotra ny fanahiko ho amin’ ny fiadanana hahafahako amin’ ny adin’ ireny amiko, fa maro no miady amiko.
19 God will hear and humiliate them— the One enthroned for the ages— (Selah) because they do not change and they have no fear of God.
Hihaino Andriamanitra, Izay mipetraka hatramin’ ny taloha, (Sela) ka hamaly ireo olona tsy miova toetra, sady tsy matahotra an’ Andriamanitra.
20 My companion attacks his friends; he violates his covenant.
Efa naninjitra ny tànany hamely izay nihavana taminy izy; namadika ny fanekeny izy.
21 His speech is smooth as butter, but war is in his heart. His words are softer than oil, yet they are swords unsheathed.
Malambo noho ny rononomandry ny vavany, kanjo ady no ao am-pony; malemy noho ny diloilo ny teniny, kanjo sabatra voatsoaka ireny.
22 Cast your burden upon the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous be shaken.
Apetraho amin’ i Jehovah ny entanao, ary Izy no hanohana anao; tsy havelany hangozohozo mandrakizay ny marina.
23 But You, O God, will bring them down to the Pit of destruction; men of bloodshed and deceit will not live out half their days. But I will trust in You.
Fa Hianao, Andriamanitra ô, no hampidina ireo any an-davaka fanimbana; ny mpandatsa-drà sy mpamitaka tsy hahatratra ny an-tsasaky ny androny; fa izaho kosa dia hatoky Anao.
