Psalms 51
1 For the end, a Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came to him, when he had gone to Bersabee. Have mercy upon me, O God, according to your great mercy; and according to the multitude of your compassions blot out my transgression.
Ry Andrianañahare, matariha amy hafatraram-pikokoa’o, faopaoho o fiolàkoo amo hara’elahim-piferenaiña’oo,
2 Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
Kotriño hitoratsike amo tahikoo, liovo amo fandilarakoo.
3 For I am conscious of mine iniquity; and my sin is continually before me.
Apotako o fiolàkoo: vaho miatrek’ ahy nainai’e o hakeokoo.
4 Against you only have I sinned, and done evil before you: that you might be justified in your sayings, and might overcome when you are judged.
Ama’o, le ama’o avao ty nandilarako; naho nanao hatsivokarañe am-pivazohoa’o; soa te ho rendreke to t’ie mitsara, vaho vantañe te mizaka.
5 For, behold, I was conceived in iniquities, and in sins did my mother conceive me.
Toe naterak’ an-kakeo iraho, naho an-tahiñe t’ie niareñen-drene.
6 For, behold, you love truth: you have manifested to me the secret and hidden things of your wisdom.
Inao, mipay hatò añ’ova ao irehe, aa le ampandrendreho hìhitse mietake iraho.
7 You shall sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be purified: you shall wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow.
Efero an-tseva iraho, hikotritriake; ampandrò ho foty matsatsaoke te amo volovasoo.
8 You shall cause me to hear gladness and joy: the afflicted bones shall rejoice.
Ampitsanoño firebehañe naho hafalean-draho; soa te hiankahake o taolañe dinemo’oo.
9 Turn away your face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
Aetaho amo tahikoo ty lahara’o, ehe fonga forò o hakeokoo.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit in my inward parts.
Itseneo fo vao ry Andrianañahare; le vaò añ’ovako ao ty troke migahiñe.
11 Cast me not away from your presence; and remove not your holy Spirit from me.
Ko ahifike tsy ho añatrefa’o eo iraho, le ko apitsok’ amako i Arofo’o Masiñey.
12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation: establish me with your directing Spirit.
Ampolio amako ty hafalea’ i fandrombaha’oy, itohano ho aman-troke mahimbañe.
13 [Then] will I teach transgressors your ways; and ungodly men shall turn to you.
Le hampahafohineko o aman-kakeoo o lala’oo, hampipoliañe o mpanan-tahiñeo.
14 Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, O God, the God of my salvation: [and] my tongue shall joyfully declare your righteousness.
Hahao ami’ty lio-màlin-draho, ry Andrianañahare, Andrianañaharem- pandrombahañ’ ahikoy; le ho saboen-delako o havantaña’oo.
15 O Lord, you shall open my lips; and my mouth shall declare your praise.
O Talè, sokafo o soñikoo hitaroñam-bavako ty fandrengeañ’ Azo
16 For if you desired sacrifice, I would have given [it]: you will not take pleasure in whole burnt offerings.
Toe tsy mahafale Azo o soroñeo, fa ho nibanabanaeko; tsy no’o o soroñe oroañeo.
17 Sacrifice to God is a broken spirit: a broken and humbled heart God will not despise.
Ty soron’ Añahare, le troke mihoto; tsy ho sirikae’o ry Andrianañahare, ty arofo rofotse naho mikoretse.
18 Do good, O Lord, to Sion in your good pleasure; and let the walls of Jerusalem be built.
Hasoao i Tsiône ami’ty fatariha’o; atroaro o kijoli’ Ierosalaimeo.
19 Then shall you be pleased with a sacrifice of righteousness, offering, and whole burnt sacrifices: then shall they offer calves upon your altar.
Izay vaho ho no’o o sorom-bantañeo: o soroñe oroañeo naho soroñ’ añoñeo; le hengaeñe bania ambone’ i kitreli’oy.
