Psalms 55
1 To the chief Musician. On stringed instruments: an instruction. Of David. Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication.
Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Hampiarahina amin’ ny valiha. Maskila nataon’ i Davida. Mihainoa ny fivavako, Andriamanitra ô, ary aza miery amin’ ny fitarainako.
2 Attend unto me, and answer me: I wander about in my plaint, and I moan aloud,
Henoy aho, ka valio; miriorio ny eritreritro, ka mitoloko aho,
3 Because of the voice of the enemy; because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in anger they persecute me.
Noho ny feon’ ny fahavalo sy ny fampahorian’ ny ratsy fanahy; fa mampianjera loza amiko ireny, ary amin’ ny fahatezerana no ankahalany ahy.
4 My heart is writhing within me, and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.
Mangorohoro ato anatiko ny foko, ary mamely ahy ny tahotra ny fahafatesana.
5 Fear and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
Tahotra sy hovitra no mahazo ahy, ary manafotra ahy ny horohoro.
6 And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away, and be at rest;
Ka hoy izaho: enga anie ka manana elatra tahaka ny voromailala aho, dia handositra aho ka hahita izay hitoerako;
7 Behold, I would flee afar off, I would lodge in the wilderness; (Selah)
Eny, handositra lavitra aho ka hitoetra any an-efitra. (Sela)
8 I would hasten my escape from the stormy wind, from the tempest.
Handeha faingana aho hamonjy fialofana, mba tsy ho azon’ ny tafio-drivotra sy ny ranonoram-baratra.
9 Swallow [them] up, Lord; divide their tongue: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
Aringano izy, ary akoroy ny fiteniny, Tompo ô; fa mahita loza sy ady ao an-tanàna aho.
10 Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof; and iniquity and mischief are in the midst of it.
Hodidininy andro aman’ alina eny ambonin ny mandany io; ary heloka sy fampahoriana no ao aminy;
11 Perversities are in the midst thereof; and oppression and deceit depart not from its streets.
Ratsy no ao anatiny; ary ny fitaka sy ny fanangolena tsy mba miala amin’ ny lalàmbeny.
12 For it is not an enemy that hath reproached me — then could I have borne it; neither is it he that hateth me that hath magnified [himself] against me — then would I have hidden myself from him;
Fa tsy fahavalo no nanaratsy ahy, ― fa raha izany, dia niaritra ihany aho; tsy olona nankahala ahy no nanandra-tena namely ahy, fa raha izany, dia niery azy aho;
13 But it was thou, a man mine equal, mine intimate, my familiar friend. ...
Fa ianao, lehilahy mitovy saranga amiko, namako sy sakaizako indrindra,
14 We who held sweet intercourse together. To the house of God we walked amid the throng.
Dia isika izay nifankamamy resaka ka niara-nandeha tamin’ ny maro ho ao an-tranon’ Andriamanitra.
15 Let death seize upon them, let them go down alive into Sheol. For wickedness is in their dwellings, in their midst. (Sheol h7585)
Aoka hanampoka azy ny fahafatesana. Aoka hidina velona any amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita izy; fa ratsy no ao amin’ ny fonenany, dia ao afovoany. (Sheol h7585)
16 As for me, unto God will I call; and Jehovah will save me.
Raha izaho, dia Andriamanitra no hantsoiko; ary Jehovah no hamonjy ahy.
17 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray and moan aloud; and he will hear my voice.
Hariva sy maraina ary mitatao vovonana no hitarainako sy hitolokoako; dia hihaino ny feoko Izy,
18 He hath redeemed my soul in peace from the battle against me: for there were many about me.
Ka hanavotra ny fanahiko ho amin’ ny fiadanana hahafahako amin’ ny adin’ ireny amiko, fa maro no miady amiko.
19 God will hear, and afflict them: he that is seated of old, (Selah) ...because there is no change in them, and they fear not God.
Hihaino Andriamanitra, Izay mipetraka hatramin’ ny taloha, (Sela) ka hamaly ireo olona tsy miova toetra, sady tsy matahotra an’ Andriamanitra.
20 He hath put forth his hands against such as are at peace with him; he hath profaned his covenant.
Efa naninjitra ny tànany hamely izay nihavana taminy izy; namadika ny fanekeny izy.
21 Smooth were the milky [words] of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet are they drawn swords.
Malambo noho ny rononomandry ny vavany, kanjo ady no ao am-pony; malemy noho ny diloilo ny teniny, kanjo sabatra voatsoaka ireny.
22 Cast thy burden upon Jehovah, and he will sustain thee: he will never suffer the righteous to be moved.
Apetraho amin’ i Jehovah ny entanao, ary Izy no hanohana anao; tsy havelany hangozohozo mandrakizay ny marina.
23 And thou, O God, wilt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days. But as for me, I will confide in thee.
Fa Hianao, Andriamanitra ô, no hampidina ireo any an-davaka fanimbana; ny mpandatsa-drà sy mpamitaka tsy hahatratra ny an-tsasaky ny androny; fa izaho kosa dia hatoky Anao.
