Psalms 20

1 Unto the end. A psalm for David. May the Lord hear thee in the day of tribulation: may the name of the God of Jacob protect thee.

Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Hihaino anao anie Jehovah amin’ ny andro fahoriana; hitondra anao ho any amin’ ny avo anie ny anaran’ Andriamanitr’ i Jakoba.

2 May he send thee help from the sanctuary: and defend thee out of Sion.

Hahatonga famonjena ho anao avy amin’ ny fitoerana masìna anie Izy, ary hanohana anao avy any Ziona.

3 May he be mindful of all thy sacrifices: and may thy whole burnt offering be made fat.

Hahatsiaro ny fanatitra hohaninao rehetra anie Izy, ary hankasitraka ny fanatitra doranao. (Sela)

4 May he give thee according to thy own heart; and confirm all thy counsels.

Hanome anao araka ny fonao anie Izy ary hahatanteraka ny fisainanao rehetra.

5 We will rejoice in thy salvation; and in the name of our God we shall be exalted.

Aoka hihoby noho ny famonjena azonao izahay, ary amin’ ny anaran’ Andriamanitray no hanangananay faneva; ho tanterahin’ i Jehovah anie ny angatahinao rehetra.

6 The Lord fulfill all thy petitions: now have I known that the Lord hath saved his anointed. He will hear him from his holy heaven: the salvation of his right hand is in powers.

Ankehitriny dia fantatro fa Jehovah mamonjy ny voahosony; hamaly azy avy amin’ ny lanitry ny fahamasinany Izy amin’ ny herin’ ny famonjen’ ny tànany ankavanana.

7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will call upon the name of the Lord our God.

Ny sasany mitoky amin’ ny kalesy, ary ny sasany amin’ ny soavaly; Fa raha izahay kosa, dia ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitray no hoderainay.

8 They are bound, and have fallen; but we are risen, and are set upright.

Ireo dia reraka sady lavo; fa izahay kosa efa mitsangana sy mijoro,

9 O Lord, save the king: and hear us in the day that we shall call upon thee.

Jehovah ô, vonjeo ny mpanjaka; hamaly anay anie Izy amin’ izay andro iantsoanay Azy.
