Psalms 28

1 A psalm for David himself. Unto thee will I cry, O Lord: O my God, be not thou silent to me: lest thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.

Nataon’ i Davida.

2 Hear, O Lord, the voice of my supplication, when I pray to thee; when I lift up my hands to thy holy temple.

Mihainoa ny feon’ ny fifonako, raha mitaraina aminao aho, raha manandratra ny tanako ho amin’ ny fitoeranao masìna indrindra aho.

3 Draw me not away together with the wicked; and with the workers of iniquity destroy me not: Who speak peace with their neighbour, but evils are in their hearts.

Aza atao indray manakipaka amin’ ny ratsy fanahy sy ny mpanao meloka aho, fa ireny dia milaza fihavanana amin’ ny namany, kanjo ratsy no ao am-pony.

4 Give them according to their works, and according to the wickedness of their inventions. According to the works of their hands give thou to them: render to them their reward.

Manomeza azy araka ny asany sy ny faharatsian’ ny ataony; eny, manomeza azy araka ny vitan’ ny tànany, valio izy araka izay iendrehany.

5 Because they have not understood the works of the Lord, and the operations of his hands: thou shalt destroy them, and shalt not build them up.

Fa tsy mihevitra ny asan’ i Jehovah, na ny vitan’ ny tànany, izy, dia horavan’ i Jehovah izy, fa tsy haoriny.

6 Blessed be the Lord, for he hath heard the voice of my supplication.

Isaorana anie Jehovah, fa efa nihaino ny feon’ ny fifonako Izy.

7 The Lord is my helper and my protector: in him hath my heart confided, and I have been helped. And my flesh hath flourished again, and with my will I will give praise to him.

Jehovah no heriko sy ampingako; izy no nitokian’ ny foko, ka voavonjy aho; dia mifaly ny foko, ka ny hirako no hiderako Azy.

8 The Lord is the strength of his people, and the protector of the salvation of his anointed.

Jehovah no heriny, ary Izy no fiarovana mafy hamonjena ny voahosony.

9 Save, O Lord, thy people, and bless thy inheritance: and rule them and exalt them for ever.

Vonjeo ny olonao, ary tahio ny lovanao; andraso izy, ka tezao mandrakizay.
