Psalms 51
1 Unto the end, a psalm of David, When Nathan the prophet came to him after he had sinned with Bethsabee. Have mercy on me, O God, according to thy great mercy. And according to the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my iniquity.
Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon’ i Davida, fony Natana mpaminany nankao aminy rehefa naka an’ i Batseba izy. Mamindrà fo amiko, Andriamanitra ô, araka ny fahasoavanao; araka ny haben’ ny fiantranao vonoy ny fahadisoako.
2 Wash me yet more from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
Sasao madio aho mba ho afa-keloka, ary diovy aho mba ho afa-pahotana.
3 For I know my iniquity, and my sin is always before me.
Fa tsaroako ny fahadisoako, ary eo anatrehako mandrakariva ny fahotako.
4 To thee only have I sinned, and have done evil before thee: that thou mayst be justified in thy words and mayst overcome when thou art judged.
Taminao dia taminao ihany no nanotako, ary izay ratsy eo imasonao no efa nataoko, mba ho marina Hianao, raha miteny, ary tsy hanan-tsiny Hianao, raha mitsara.
5 For behold I was conceived in iniquities; and in sins did my mother conceive me.
Indro, tamin’ ny heloka no niterahana ahy, ary tamin’ ny fahotana no torontoronina ahy ny reniko.
6 For behold thou hast loved truth: the uncertain and hidden things of thy wisdom thou hast made manifest to me.
Indro, fahamarinana ao am-po no sitrakao; ary fahendrena ao amin’ ny miafina no ampahafantarinao ahy.
7 Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be cleansed: thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow.
Diovy hysopa aho ho afa-pahotana, dia hadio; sasao aho, dia ho fotsy mangatsakatsaka.
8 To my hearing thou shalt give joy and gladness: and the bones that have been humbled shall rejoice.
Ampandreneso fifaliana sy faharavoravoana aho, hifalian’ ny taolana izay voavakivakinao.
9 Turn away thy face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities.
Afeno ny tavanao ny fahotako ary vonoy ny heloko rehetra.
10 Create a clean heart in me, O God: and renew a right spirit within my bowels.
Amorony fo madio aho, Andriamanitra ô; ary havaozy hiorina marina ny fanahiko ato anatiko.
11 Cast me not away from thy face; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
Aza manary ahy hiala eo anatrehanao; ary aza manaisotra ny Fanahinao Masìna amiko.
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, and strengthen me with a perfect spirit.
Ampodio amiko ny fifaliana amin’ ny famonjenao; ary tohàny fanahy mazoto aho.
13 I will teach the unjust thy ways: and the wicked shall be converted to thee.
Dia hampianatra ny olon-diso ny lalanao aho; ary ny mpanota hampiverenina aminao.
14 Deliver me from blood, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall extol thy justice.
Vonjeo ho afaka amin’ ny valin-drà aho, Andriamanitra ô, Andriamanitry ny famonjena ahy; hihoby ny fahamarinanao ny vavako.
15 O Lord, thou wilt open my lips: and my mouth shall declare thy praise.
Tompo ô, sokafy ny molotro, dia hanambara ny fiderana Anao ny vavako.
16 For if thou hadst desired sacrifice, I would indeed have given it: with burnt offerings thou wilt not be delighted.
Fa tsy fanatitra no sitrakao; raha izany dia nomeko ihany; ny fanatitra dorana tsy mahafaly Anao.
17 A sacrifice to God is an afflicted spirit: a contrite and humbled heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
Ny fanatitra ho an’ Andriamanitra dia fanahy torotoro; ny fo torotoro sy mangorakoraka, Andriamanitra ô, tsy mba ataonao tsinontsinona.
18 Deal favourably, O Lord, in thy good will with Sion; that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.
Manaova soa amin’ i Ziona araka ny fahasoavanao; ataovy ny mandan’ i Jerosalema.
19 Then shalt thou accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations and whole burnt offerings: then shall they lay calves upon thy altar.
Dia ho sitrakao ny fanati-pahamarinana sy ny fanatitra dorana ary ny fanatitra levonina amin’ ny afo; dia hanatitra vantotr’ ombilahy eo amin’ ny alitaranao ny olona.
