Psalms 16
1 A writing of David. Keep me, O Lord; for I have hoped in thee.
Tambozoro iraho, ry Andrianañahare, toe ama’o ty fitsolohako.
2 I said to the Lord, Thou art my Lord; for thou has no need of my goodness.
Ty hoe ty tinaroko am’ Iehovà: Ihe ro Talèko, izaho tsy aman-kasoa naho tsy ama’o.
3 On behalf of the saints that are in his land, he has magnified all his pleasure in them.
O noro’e an-tane atoio: ie ro talango’e, toe mampinembanembañe ahiko.
4 Their weaknesses have been multiplied; afterward they hasted. I will by no means assemble their bloody meetings, neither will I make mention of their names with my lips.
Hampitomboeñe ty hasotria’ ze mihitrike mb’an-tsamposampo’e añe; tsy hailiko ty engan-dranon-dio’iareo, le tsy ho rambesen-tsoñiko o añara’ iareoo.
5 The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou art he that restores my inheritance to me.
Iehovà ro anjara-lovako naho ty fitoviko. Tohañe’o ty navike ho ahiko.
6 The lines have fallen to me in the best places, yea, I have a most excellent heritage.
An-toetse fanjaka ty nipoha’ o taly ho ahikoo; Eka, soa i lovakoy.
7 I will bless the Lord who has instructed me; my reins too have chastened me even till night.
Andriañeko t’Iehovà mpamere ahiko, ie haleñe, anare’ ty troko.
8 I foresaw the Lord always before my face; for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
Najadoko aoloko nainai’e t’Iehovà. Ie ty an-tañako havana eo, tsy higavingaviñe.
9 Therefore my heart rejoiced an my tongue exulted; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:
Aa le tsy mahay avao ty troko, vaho mirebeke ty havokarako; mierañerañe ka ty sandriko,
10 because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
amy te tsy hapo’o an-tsikeokeok’ ao ty fiaiko, vaho tsy hado’o hahaoni-pihomahañe i Masi’oy. (Sheol h7585)
11 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou wilt fill me with joy with thy countenance: at thy right hand [there are] delights for ever.
Ampaharofoana’o ahiko ty lalan-kaveloñe; lifotse hafaleañe ty añatrefa’o; haravoravoañe nainai’e ro am-pitàn-kavana’o.
