Psalms 37
1 [A Psalm] of David. Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
Ko embetse amo tsivokatseo, vaho ko tsikirihe’o o mpanao ratio,
2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
F’ie hiforejeje aniany hoe ahetse, vaho hiheatse hoe rongo-maindoñe.
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; [so] shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
Miatoa am’ Iehovà, le anò ty soa; imoneño i taney vaho rañeto ty figahiñañe.
4 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
Mifalea am’ Iehovà; le hatolo’e azo ty fisalalàn’ arofo’o.
5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring [it] to pass.
Ampiatò am’ Iehovà ty fombà’o, Atokiso, vaho ie ty hitoloñe.
6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
Le hampionjone’e hoe hazavàñe ty havantaña’o, vaho hoe an-tsipinde-mena ty havañona’o.
7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
Manintsiña am’ Iehovà naho mahaliñisa; ko ihobira’o ty miraorao an-tsata’e, t’indaty mitoloñ’ am-pikitrohan-dratio.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
Fario o habosehañeo, naho apoho ty fombo; ko embetse kera hañosi-karatiañe.
9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.
Toe haitoañe o tsy vokatseo, fa handova i taney ze mitamà Iehovà.
10 For yet a little while, and the wicked [shall] not [be: ] yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it [shall] not [be].
Aniany le tsy ho eo i lo-tserekey, ho tsoehe’o i akiba’ey f’ie tsy ho trea.
11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
Toe handova i Taney o tretram-poo, hifale am-piraoraoañe vokatse.
12 The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.
Kililie’ i lo-tsereke ty vantañe, vaho ampikodrita’e nife.
13 The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.
Iankahafa’ i Talè, fa arofoana’e te an-titotse ty andro’e.
14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, [and] to slay such as be of upright conversation.
Fa napontsoa’ o tsivokatseo ty fibara, vaho nampibitsoke fale hametsaha’e ambane o rarakeo naho o misotrio, hañohofa’e loza amo an-dala mahitio.
15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
Hitrofaha’ i fibaray ty tro’ iareo, vaho ho pekañeñe ty fale’ iareo.
16 A little that a righteous man hath [is] better than the riches of many wicked.
Hamake ty kedekedek’ anaña’ ty vantañe ta ty havokara’ o tsivokatse maroo.
17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.
Toe ho pozaheñe ty sira’ o lo-tserekeo, fe tohaña’ Iehovà o vañoñeo.
18 The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.
Arofoana’ Iehovà ty andro’ o vantañeo, tsy ho modo kitro añ’afe’e ty lova’iareo;
19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
Tsy ho salatse an-tsan-karatiañe; le ho anjañe an-tsam-paosa.
20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD [shall be] as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
Hikoromake o tsy vokatseo, le hanahake ty safon’ añondry o rafelahi’ Iehovào, ie himosaoñe an-katòeñe, toe himiañe.
21 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth.
Misongo i tsivokatsey fe tsy mañavake; matarike i vantañey vaho mañomey.
22 For [such as be] blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and [they that be] cursed of him shall be cut off.
Toe handova i taney o tahie’eo, fe haitoañe añe o afà’eo.
23 The steps of a [good] man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.
Ampijadoña’ Iehovà ty lia’ ondaty, ie no’e i lala’ey.
24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth [him with] his hand.
Ndra t’ie mikorovoke tsy hidaboñe, fa tohaña’ Iehovà am-pitàñe.
25 I have been young, and [now] am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
Nitora’e iraho, fa antetse henaneo, mboe liako tsy nahatrea te naforintseñe o vañoñeo, te nangata-kaneñe o keleia’eo.
26 [He is] ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed [is] blessed.
Matarike lomoñandro re naho mampisongo, vaho vokatse o tiri’eo.
27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
Ihankaño ty raty, le anò ty soa, vaho himoneñe kitro añ’afe’e.
28 For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.
Tea’ Iehovà ty hatò, le tsy ho farie’e o mpañorike i Ha’eio; soa-fipalitse nainai’e iereo; fe haitoañe ty tiri’ o lo-tserekeo.
29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
Handova i taney o vañoñeo, vaho himoneñe nainai’e.
30 The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.
Mañaka-kihitse ty falie’ o vantañeo, manao saontsi-to i famele’ey.
31 The law of his God [is] in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
Añ’arofo’e ao ty Hàn’Añahare’e, tsy midorasitse o fandia’eo.
32 The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him.
Tampone’ ty tsivokatse ty vantañe, mipay hañè-doza ama’e.
33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
Fe tsy hapo’ Iehovà an-taña’e ao, vaho tsy hado’e hafàtse an-jaka.
34 Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see [it].
Itamao t’Iehovà, naho ambeno i lala’ey, le honjone’e handova i taney, vaho ho isa’o ty fañitoañe o tsivokatseo.
35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.
Fa nitreako ty lahiaga, tsivoatsolo, nandrevake hoe hatae maindoñe an-tane’e ao;
36 Yet he passed away, and, lo, he [was] not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
Fe nihelañe añe, le heheke, tsy eo; pinaiko fa tsy nahatrea.
37 Mark the perfect [man], and behold the upright: for the end of [that] man [is] peace.
Henteo ty vañoñe, hehe i vantañey, ho soa-figadoñe ty mifampilongo.
38 But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.
Fe hatrao-karotsake o mpandilatseo vaho ho tomereñe ty figadoña’ ty lo-tsereke.
39 But the salvation of the righteous [is] of the LORD: [he is] their strength in the time of trouble.
Boak’ am’ Iehovà ty fandrombahañe o vañoñeo, Ie ty fitsoloha’ iareo an-tsàm-poheke.
40 And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
Imbàe’ Iehovà naho votsore’e; haha’e amo tsivokatseo vaho rombahe’e, amy te Ie ty fipalira’ iareo.
