Psalms 39
1 Unto the end, for Idithun himself, a canticle of David. I said: I will take heed to my ways: that I sin not with my tongue. I have set guard to my mouth, when the sinner stood against me.
Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Ho an’ i Jedotona Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Hoy izaho: hitandrina ny lalako aho ka tsy hanota amin’ ny lelako; hasiako fehim-bava ny vavako, raha mbola eo anatrehako ny ratsy fanahy.
2 I was dumb, and was humbled, and kept silence from good things: and my sorrow was renewed.
Nangina mihitsy aho, namihim-bava ka tsy nilaza na dia ny tsara aza, dia nihetsika mafy ny fanaintainan’ ny aretiko.
3 My heart grew hot within me: and in my meditation a fire shall flame out.
Nafana ny foko tato anatiko; raha nieritreritra aho, dia nisy afo nirehitra, ka niteny tamin’ ny lelako aho.
4 I spoke with my tongue: O Lord, make me know my end. And what is the number of my days: that I may know what is wanting to me.
Jehovah ô, ampahafantaro ny farako aho sy izay ohatry ny androko; aoka ho fantatro fa olon-kandalo aho.
5 Behold thou hast made my days measurable: and my substance is as nothing before thee. And indeed all things are vanity: every man living.
Indro efa nataonao vodivoam-pelatanana ny androko, ary ny fiainako toy ny tsinontsinona eo anatrehanao. Zava-poana ihany tokoa ny olon-drehetra, na dia matanjaka aza. (Sela)
6 Surely man passeth as an image: yea, and he is disquieted in vain. He storeth up: and he knoweth not for whom he shall gather these things.
Aloka tokoa no fandehandehan’ ny olona; zava-poana tokoa no itabatabàny; mihary harena izy nefa tsy fantany izay ho tompon’ izany.
7 And now what is my hope? is it not the Lord? and my substance is with thee.
Ary ankehitriny, inona no andrasako Tompo ô? Hianao no antenaiko.
8 Deliver thou me from all my iniquities: thou hast made me a reproach to the fool.
Manafaha ahy amin’ ny fahadisoako rehetra; aza manao ahy ho fanakoran’ ny adala.
9 I was dumb, and I opened not my mouth, because thou hast done it.
Mangìna aho ka tsy miloa-bava fa ianao no nanao izao.
10 Remove thy scourges from me. The strength of thy hand hath made me faint in rebukes:
Aoka hitsahatra ny fikapohanao ahy; reraka aho azon’ ny famelin’ ny tananao.
11 Thou hast corrected man for iniquity. And thou hast made his soul to waste away like a spider: surely in vain is any man disquieted.
Anatra noho ny fahadisoany no ananaranao ny olona, ka manimba ny hatsaran-tarehiny tahaka ny kalalao ianao; zava-poana tokoa ny olona rehetra. (Sela)
12 Hear my prayer, O Lord, and my supplication: give ear to my tears. Be not silent: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner as all my fathers were.
Mandrenesa ny fivavako Jehovah ô, ary mihainoa ny fitarainako; aza mangìna amin’ ny ranomasoko fa vahiny aminao aho sy mpivahiny tahaka ny razako rehetra.
13 O forgive me, that I may be refreshed, before I go hence, and be no more.
Aza atrehinao aho aloha, dia ho miramirana indray, dieny aho tsy mbola lasa ka tsy ho eto intsony.
