Psalms 143
1 A Psalm of David, when his son Absalom was pursuing him. O Lord, hear my prayer. Incline your ear to my supplication in your truth. Heed me according to your justice.
Salamo nataon’ i Davida.
2 And do not enter into judgment with your servant. For all the living will not be justified in your sight.
Ary aza dia mifandahatra amin’ ny mpanomponao eo am-pitsarana; Fa tsy misy olombelona ho marina eo anatrehanao.
3 For the enemy has pursued my soul. He has lowered my life to the earth. He has stationed me in darkness, like the dead of ages past.
Fa nanenjika ny fanahiko ny fahavalo; Namely ny aiko ho lavo tamin’ ny tany izy: Nampitoeriny tao amin’ ny maizina aho, toy izay efa maty ela.
4 And my spirit has been in anguish over me. My heart within me has been disturbed.
Dia reraka ny fanahiko ato anatiko; Fadiranovana ny foko ato anatiko.
5 I have called to mind the days of antiquity. I have been meditating on all your works. I have meditated on the workings of your hands.
Mahatsiaro ny andro fahiny ho Ary misaina ny asanao rehetra; Ny asan’ ny tananao no eritreretiko.
6 I have extended my hands to you. My soul is like a land without water before you.
Mananty tanana aminao aho; Ny fanahiko dia tahaka ny tany mangetana eo anatrehanao. (Sela)
7 O Lord, heed me quickly. My spirit has grown faint. Do not turn your face away from me, lest I become like those who descend into the pit.
Faingàna hamaly ahy, Jehovah ô, fa reraka ny fanahiko; Aza manafina ny tavanao amiko, Fandrao ho tahaka izay midìna any am-pasana aho.
8 Make me hear your mercy in the morning. For I have hoped in you. Make known to me the way that I should walk. For I have lifted up my soul to you.
Ampandreneso ny famindram-ponao aho nony maraina, Fa Hianao no itokiako; Ampahalalao ahy izay lalana tokony halehako, Fa aminao no ananganako ny fanahiko.
9 O Lord, rescue me from my enemies. I have fled to you.
Jehovah ô, vonjeo amin’ ny fa-havaloko aho; Ao aminao no iereko.
10 Teach me to do your will. For you are my God. Your good Spirit will lead me into the righteous land.
Ampianaro hanao ny sitraponao aho; Fa Hianao no Andriamanitro; Aoka ny Fanahinao tsara no hitarihanao ahy amin’ izay tany marina.
11 For the sake of your name, O Lord, you will revive me in your fairness. You will lead my soul out of tribulation.
Noho ny anaranao, Jehovah ô, velomy aho; Araka ny fahamarinanao avoahy ny fanahiko ho afaka amin’ ny fahoriana.
12 And you will scatter my enemies in your mercy. And you will destroy all those who afflict my soul. For I am your servant.
Ary araka ny famindram-ponao fongory ny fahavaloko, Ka aringano izay rehetra mampahory ny fanahiko; Fa mpanomponao aho.
