Psalms 51
1 For the Leader. A Psalm of David; When Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bath-sheba. Be gracious unto me, O God, according to Thy mercy; according to the multitude of Thy compassions blot out my transgressions.
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 thoroughly from mine 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 transgressions; and my sin is ever before me.
Fa tsaroako ny fahadisoako, ary eo anatrehako mandrakariva ny fahotako.
4 Against Thee, Thee only, have I sinned, and done that which is evil in Thy sight; that Thou mayest be justified when Thou speakest, and be in the right when Thou judgest.
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 Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me.
Indro, tamin’ ny heloka no niterahana ahy, ary tamin’ ny fahotana no torontoronina ahy ny reniko.
6 Behold, Thou desirest truth in the inward parts; make me, therefore, to know wisdom in mine inmost heart.
Indro, fahamarinana ao am-po no sitrakao; ary fahendrena ao amin’ ny miafina no ampahafantarinao ahy.
7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
Diovy hysopa aho ho afa-pahotana, dia hadio; sasao aho, dia ho fotsy mangatsakatsaka.
8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which Thou hast crushed may rejoice.
Ampandreneso fifaliana sy faharavoravoana aho, hifalian’ ny taolana izay voavakivakinao.
9 Hide Thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
Afeno ny tavanao ny fahotako ary vonoy ny heloko rehetra.
10 Create me a clean heart, O God; and renew a stedfast spirit within me.
Amorony fo madio aho, Andriamanitra ô; ary havaozy hiorina marina ny fanahiko ato anatiko.
11 Cast me not away from Thy presence; 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 let a willing spirit uphold me.
Ampodio amiko ny fifaliana amin’ ny famonjenao; ary tohàny fanahy mazoto aho.
13 Then will I teach transgressors Thy ways; and sinners shall return unto Thee.
Dia hampianatra ny olon-diso ny lalanao aho; ary ny mpanota hampiverenina aminao.
14 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, Thou God of my salvation; so shall my tongue sing aloud of Thy righteousness.
Vonjeo ho afaka amin’ ny valin-drà aho, Andriamanitra ô, Andriamanitry ny famonjena ahy; hihoby ny fahamarinanao ny vavako.
15 O Lord, open Thou my lips; and my mouth shall declare Thy praise.
Tompo ô, sokafy ny molotro, dia hanambara ny fiderana Anao ny vavako.
16 For Thou delightest not in sacrifice, else would I give it; Thou hast no pleasure in burnt-offering.
Fa tsy fanatitra no sitrakao; raha izany dia nomeko ihany; ny fanatitra dorana tsy mahafaly Anao.
17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite 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 Do good in Thy favour unto Zion; build Thou the walls of Jerusalem.
Manaova soa amin’ i Ziona araka ny fahasoavanao; ataovy ny mandan’ i Jerosalema.
19 Then wilt Thou delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, in burnt-offering and whole offering; then will they offer bullocks upon Thine 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.
