Psalms 61

1 For the Leader; with string-music. A Psalm of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.

Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Hampiarahina amin’ ny valiha. Nataon’ i Davida. Henoy ny fitarainako, Andriamanitra ô; tandremo ny fivavako.

2 From the end of the earth will I call unto Thee, when my heart fainteth; lead me to a rock that is too high for me.

Any am-paran’ ny tany no hiantsoako Anao raha reraka ny foko; ento aho ho any amin’ ny vatolampy izay avo ka tsy tratro;

3 For Thou hast been a refuge for me, a tower of strength in the face of the enemy.

Fa aroko Hianao sy tilikambo mafy handosirako ny fahavalo.

4 I will dwell in Thy Tent for ever; I will take refuge in the covert of Thy wings. (Selah)

Aoka hitoetra ao an-tranonao mandrakizay aho; aoka hialoka ao ambanin’ ny fanomban’ ny elatrao aho,

5 For Thou, O God, hast heard my vows; Thou hast granted the heritage of those that fear Thy name.

Fa Hianao, Andriamanitra ô efa nandre ny voadiko; efa nomenao ahy ny lovan’ izay matahotra ny anaranao.

6 Mayest Thou add days unto the king's days! May his years be as many generations!

Halavao ny andron’ ny mpanjaka; aoka ny taonany hahatratra ny taranaka maro.

7 May he be enthroned before God for ever! Appoint mercy and truth, that they may preserve him.

Aoka hitoetra eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra mandrakizay izy; famindram-po sy fahamarinana no tendreo hiaro azy;

8 So will I sing praise unto Thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.

Ka dia izany no hankalazako ny anaranao mandrakizay, mba hanefako isan’ andro ny voadiko.
