Psalms 61

1 For the end, among the Hymns of David. O God, hearken to my petition; attend to my prayer.

Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Hampiarahina amin’ ny valiha. Nataon’ i Davida. Henoy ny fitarainako, Andriamanitra ô; tandremo ny fivavako.

2 From the ends of the earth have I cried to thee, when my heart was in trouble: thou liftedst me up on a rock thou didst guide me:

Any am-paran’ ny tany no hiantsoako Anao raha reraka ny foko; ento aho ho any amin’ ny vatolampy izay avo ka tsy tratro;

3 because thou wert my hope, a tower of strength from the face of the enemy.

Fa aroko Hianao sy tilikambo mafy handosirako ny fahavalo.

4 I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever; I will shelter myself under the shadow of thy wings. (Pause)

Aoka hitoetra ao an-tranonao mandrakizay aho; aoka hialoka ao ambanin’ ny fanomban’ ny elatrao aho,

5 For thou, o God, hast heard my prayers; thou hast given an inheritance to them that fear thy name.

Fa Hianao, Andriamanitra ô efa nandre ny voadiko; efa nomenao ahy ny lovan’ izay matahotra ny anaranao.

6 Thou shalt add days to the days of the king; [thou shalt lengthen] his years to all generations.

Halavao ny andron’ ny mpanjaka; aoka ny taonany hahatratra ny taranaka maro.

7 He shall endure for ever before God: which of them will seek out his mercy and truth?

Aoka hitoetra eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra mandrakizay izy; famindram-po sy fahamarinana no tendreo hiaro azy;

8 So will I sing to thy name for ever and ever, that I may daily perform my vows.

Ka dia izany no hankalazako ny anaranao mandrakizay, mba hanefako isan’ andro ny voadiko.
