Psalms 39
1 To the chief music-maker. Of Jeduthun. A Psalm. Of David. I said, I will give attention to my ways, so that my tongue may do no wrong; I will keep my mouth under control, while the sinner is before me.
Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Ho an’ i Jedotona Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Hoy izaho: hitandrina ny lalako aho ka tsy hanota amin’ ny lelako; hasiako fehim-bava ny vavako, raha mbola eo anatrehako ny ratsy fanahy.
2 I made no sound, I said no word, even of good; and I was moved with sorrow.
Nangina mihitsy aho, namihim-bava ka tsy nilaza na dia ny tsara aza, dia nihetsika mafy ny fanaintainan’ ny aretiko.
3 My heart was burning in my breast; while I was deep in thought the fire was lighted; then I said with my tongue,
Nafana ny foko tato anatiko; raha nieritreritra aho, dia nisy afo nirehitra, ka niteny tamin’ ny lelako aho.
4 Lord, give me knowledge of my end, and of the measure of my days, so that I may see how feeble I am.
Jehovah ô, ampahafantaro ny farako aho sy izay ohatry ny androko; aoka ho fantatro fa olon-kandalo aho.
5 You have made my days no longer than a hand's measure; and my years are nothing in your eyes; truly, every man is but a breath. (Selah)
Indro efa nataonao vodivoam-pelatanana ny androko, ary ny fiainako toy ny tsinontsinona eo anatrehanao. Zava-poana ihany tokoa ny olon-drehetra, na dia matanjaka aza. (Sela)
6 Truly, every man goes on his way like an image; he is troubled for no purpose: he makes a great store of wealth, and has no knowledge of who will get it.
Aloka tokoa no fandehandehan’ ny olona; zava-poana tokoa no itabatabàny; mihary harena izy nefa tsy fantany izay ho tompon’ izany.
7 And now, Lord, what am I waiting for? my hope is in you.
Ary ankehitriny, inona no andrasako Tompo ô? Hianao no antenaiko.
8 Make me free from all my sins; do not let me be shamed by the man of evil behaviour.
Manafaha ahy amin’ ny fahadisoako rehetra; aza manao ahy ho fanakoran’ ny adala.
9 I was quiet, and kept my mouth shut; because you had done it.
Mangìna aho ka tsy miloa-bava fa ianao no nanao izao.
10 No longer let your hand be hard on me; I am wasted by the blows of your hand.
Aoka hitsahatra ny fikapohanao ahy; reraka aho azon’ ny famelin’ ny tananao.
11 By the weight of your wrath against man's sin, the glory of his form is wasted away; truly every man is but a breath. (Selah)
Anatra noho ny fahadisoany no ananaranao ny olona, ka manimba ny hatsaran-tarehiny tahaka ny kalalao ianao; zava-poana tokoa ny olona rehetra. (Sela)
12 Let my prayer come to your ears, O Lord, and give attention to my cry, make an answer to my weeping: for my time here is short before you, and in a little time I will be gone, like all my fathers.
Mandrenesa ny fivavako Jehovah ô, ary mihainoa ny fitarainako; aza mangìna amin’ ny ranomasoko fa vahiny aminao aho sy mpivahiny tahaka ny razako rehetra.
13 Let your wrath be turned away from me, so that I may be comforted, before I go away from here, and become nothing.
Aza atrehinao aho aloha, dia ho miramirana indray, dieny aho tsy mbola lasa ka tsy ho eto intsony.
