Psalms 54

1 To him that excelleth on Neginoth. A Psalme of David, to give instruction. When the Ziphims came and said unto Saul, Is not David hid among us? Save mee, O God, by thy Name, and by thy power iudge me.

Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Hampiarahina amin’ ny valiha. Maskila nataon’ i Davida, fony tonga ny Zifita ka nanao tamin’ i Saoly hoe: Tsy miery any aminay va Davida? Vonjeo amin’ ny anaranao aho, Andriamanitra ô, ary omeo rariny aho araka ny herinao.

2 O God, heare my prayer: hearken vnto the wordes of my mouth.

Andriamanitra ô, henoy ny fivavako; mihainoa ny tenin’ ny vavako.

3 For strangers are risen vp against me, and tyrants seeke my soule: they haue not set God before them. (Selah)

Fa olona hafa firenena no mitsangana hamely ahy, ary olon-dozabe no mitady ny aiko; tsy mihevitra an’ Andriamanitra ho eo anatrehany izy. (Sela)

4 Beholde, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that vpholde my soule.

Indro, Andriamanitra no Mpamonjy ahy; ny Tompo no Mpanohana ny fanahiko.

5 He shall rewarde euill vnto mine enemies: Oh cut them off in thy trueth!

Hamaly ny ratsy ataon’ ny mpampahory ahy Izy; aoka ny fahamarinanao no handringananao azy.

6 Then I will sacrifice freely vnto thee: I wil praise thy Name, O Lord, because it is good.

Sitrapoko ihany no hanaterako fanatitra ho Anao; hidera ny anaranao aho, Jehovah ô, fa tsara izy.

7 For he hath deliuered me out of al trouble, and mine eye hath seene my desire vpon mine enemies.

Fa efa namonjy ahy ho afaka tamin’ ny fahoriana rehetra Izy; ary ny masoko dia faly mijery ny amin’ ny fahavaloko.
