< Psalms 36 >

1 For the end, by David the servant of the Lord. The transgressor, that he may sin, says within himself, [that] there is no fear of God before his eyes.
Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Nataon’ i Davida, mpanompon’ i Jehovah. Ny ota milaza ato am-poko ny amin’ ny ratsy fanahy hoe: tsy misy fahatahorana an’ Andriamanitra ao aminy.
2 For he has dealt craftily before him, to discover his iniquity and hate it.
Fa miarahaba tena izy ny amin’ ny tsy hahitana ny helony ka hankahalana azy.
3 The words of his mouth are transgression and deceit: he is not inclined to understand [how] to do good.
Ny tenin’ ny vavany dia faharatsiana sy fitaka; efa nihadala izy ka nitsahatra tsy hanao soa.
4 He devises iniquity on his bed; he gives himself to every evil way; and does not abhor evil.
Faharatsiana no saintsaininy eo am-pandriany; mitsangana eo amin’ ny lalana tsy mety izy; ny ratsy tsy mba laviny akory.
5 O Lord, thy mercy is in the heaven; and thy truth [reaches] to the clouds.
Jehovah ô, mipaka amin’ ny lanitra ny famindram-ponao; mihatra amin’ ny rahona ny fahamarinanao.
6 Thy righteousness is as the mountains of God, thy judgments are as a great deep: O Lord, thou wilt preserve men and beasts.
Ny fahamarinanao dia tahaka ny tendrombohitra avo dia avo; ny fitsaranao dia toy ny lalina indrindra; ny olona sy ny biby dia samy vonjenao, Jehovah ô,
7 How hast thou multiplied thy mercy, O God! so the children of men shall trust in the shelter of thy wings.
Endrey ny hatsaran’ ny famindram-ponao, Andriamanitra ô! ka mialoka eo amin’ ny aloky ny elatrao ny zanak’ olombelona.
8 They shall be fully satisfied with the fatness of thine house; and thou shalt cause them to drink of the full stream of thy delights.
Voky ny matavy ao an-tranonao izy; ary ny ony fampifalianao no ampisotroanao azy.
9 For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light we shall see light.
Fa ao aminao no misy loharanon’ aina; ny fahazavanao no hahitanay fahazavana.
10 Extend thy mercy to them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.
Ampahareto amin’ izay mahalala Anao ny famindram-ponao, ary ny fahamarinanao amin’ ny mahitsy fo.
11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of sinners move me.
Aoka tsy hanitsaka ahy ny tongotry ny mpiavonavona, na hampandositra ahy ny tanan’ ny ratsy fanahy.
12 There have all the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast out, and shall not be able to stand.
Indreo! efa lavo ny mpanao ratsy; naripaka izy ka tsy maharina.
