Psalms 56

1 For the end, concerning the people that were removed from the sanctuary, by David for a memorial, when the Philistines caught him in Geth. Have mercy upon me, O God; for man has trodden me down; all the day long he warring has afflicted me.

Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Al-jonathelem-rehokim. Miktama nataon’ i Davida, fony nisambotra azy tany Gata ny Filistina. Mamindrà fo amiko, Andriamanitra ô, fa misafoaka manenjika ahy ny olona; miady amiko mandrakariva izy ka mampahory ahy.

2 Mine enemies have trodden me down all the day from the dawning of the day; for there are many warring against me.

Misafoaka manenjika mandrakariva ny mpampahory ahy; maro tokoa no mirehareha miady amiko.

3 They shall be afraid, but I will trust in you.

Amin’ ny andro atahorako no itokiako Anao.

4 In God I will praise my words; all the day have I hoped in God; I will not fear what flesh shall do to me.

Andriamanitra no iderako ny teniny; Andriamanitra no itokiako, ka tsy mba hatahotra aho; inona no hataon’ ny nofo amiko?

5 All the day long they have abominated my words; all their devices [are] against me for evil.

Manimba ny raharahako mandra-kariva ireny; ny heviny rehetra dia ny hanisy ratsy ahy ihany.

6 They will dwell near and hide [themselves]; they will watch my steps, accordingly as I have waited patiently in my soul.

Miangona izy, miery izy, mitsongo-dia ahy izy, satria mikendry ny aiko.

7 You will on no account save them; you will bring down the people in wrath.

Amin’ izany faharatsiany izany moa hisy hahafahany va? Aripaho amin’ ny fahatezeranao ny firenena. Andriamanitra ô.

8 O God, I have declared my life to you; you has set my tears before you, even according to your promise.

Manisa ny firenireneko Hianao; ataovy ao an-tavoahanginao ny ranomasoko; tsy eo amin’ ny bokinao va ireny?

9 Mine enemies shall be turned back, in the day wherein I shall call upon you; behold, I know that you are my God.

Amin’ izay dia hiamboho ny fahavaloko amin’ ny andro hiantsoako Anao; izao dia fantatro, fa momba ahy Andriamanitra.

10 In God, will I praise [his] word; in the Lord will I praise [his] saying.

Andriamanitra no iderako ny teniny; Jehovah no iderako ny teniny.

11 I have hoped in God; I will not be afraid of what man shall do to me.

Andriamanitra no itokiako; ka tsy mba hatahotra aho; inona no hataon’ ny olona amiko?

12 The vows of your praise, O God, which I will pay, are upon me.

Nivoady taminao aho, Andriamanitra ô, dia hanatitra fanati-pisaorana ho Anao.

13 For you have delivered my soul from death, and my feet from sliding, that I should be well-pleasing before God in the land of the living.

Fa efa nanafaka ny fanahiko tamin’ ny fahafatesana Hianao; eny, nanafaka ny tongotro Hianao mba tsy ho solafaka. Handehanako eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra amin’ ny fahazavan’ ny velona.
