Psalms 54

1 For the Leader; with string-music. Maschil of David: when the Ziphites came and said to Saul: 'Doth not David hide himself with us?' O God, save me by Thy name, and right me by Thy might.

Rombaho iraho ry Andrianañahare ty amy tahina’oy, vaho meo-to amo haozara’oo.

2 O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth.

Ry Andrianañahare, janjiño ty halaliko, toloro ravembia o entam-bavakoo.

3 For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul; they have not set God before them. (Selah)

Miongake hiatreatre ahy ty ambahiny, paia’ o mitrotrofiakeo ty fiaiko, tsy nampiaoloe’ iareo t’i Andrianañahare. Selà

4 Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is for me as the upholder of my soul.

Inao! Mpañimb’ahy t’i Andrianañahare, Fiatoam-piaiko t’i Talè.

5 He will requite the evil unto them that lie in wait for me; destroy Thou them in Thy truth.

Hafote’e amo mivoñoñe ahiko ty haratia’ iareo; Rotsaho iereo ami’ty figahiña’o.

6 With a freewill-offering will I sacrifice unto Thee; I will give thanks unto Thy name, O LORD, for it is good.

Mañenga ama’o an-tsatrin-tro iraho, andriañeko i tahina’oy ry Iehovà, amy te ie ty soa;

7 For He hath delivered me out of all trouble; and mine eye hath gazed upon mine enemies.

Fa nafaha’e amako ze hene haemberañe, vaho nisambae’ o masokoo o rafelahikoo.
