Psalms 140
1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. Deliver me, O YHWH, from an evil man, Keep me from one of violence.
Ho a i Talè, Sabo’ i Davide. Avotsoro am’ ondaty lo-tserekeo iraho, ry Iehovà; arovo am’ondaty piaroteñeo;
2 Who have devised evils in the heart, All the day they assemble [for] wars.
o mikilily añ’arofo’e ao naho mikitrok’aly lomoñandroo.
3 They sharpened their tongue as a serpent, Poison of a viper [is] under their lips. (Selah)
Nisioñe’ iereo ty famele’ iareo hoe mereñe; an-tsoñi’iareo ty vorem-pandrefeala. Selà
4 Preserve me, YHWH, from the hands of the wicked, Keep me from one of violence, Who have devised to overthrow my steps.
Arovo tsy ho am-pità’ o lo-tserekeo iraho ry Iehovà; arovo amy ‘ndaty mitrotrofiakey, ty mikinia hampidorasitse o liakoo.
5 The proud hid a snare for me—and cords, They spread a net by the side of the path, They have set snares for me. (Selah)
Nañetake fandrike ho ahy o mpikavokavokeo; naho taly; naho namelara’ iareo harato añ’olon-dalañeo vaho nampibitsoke fandri-boñe amako. Selà
6 I have said to YHWH, “You [are] my God, Hear, YHWH, the voice of my supplications.”
Hoe iraho am’ Iehovà, Ihe ro Andrianañahareko. Janjiño, ry Iehovà, o feon-kalalikoo.
7 O YHWH, my Lord, strength of my salvation, You have covered my head in the day of armor.
Ry Iehovà Talè, faozaram-pandrombahañe ahiko, Mpanaroñe ty lohako añ-andron-kotakotake.
8 Do not grant, O YHWH, the desires of the wicked, Do not bring forth his wicked scheme, They are high. (Selah)
Ko toiñe’o, ry Iehovà, ty fisalalà’ o tsy vokatseo, ko osihe’o ty fikililia’iareo tsy mone hirohake. Selà
9 The chief of my surrounders, The perverseness of their lips covers them.
Le ty loha’ o miarikoboñ’ ahikoo: ho rongoñeñe ty fikotrihan-tsoñi’iareo,
10 They cause burning coals to fall on themselves, He casts them into fire, Into deep pits—they do not arise.
naho hararadrarak’ am’ iereo ty foroha mirekake; vaho havokovoko añ’afo an-koboñe ao, tsy hitroatse ka.
11 A talkative man is not established in the earth, One of violence—evil hunts to overflowing.
Tsy hitoera’ ty mpikatramo ty tane toy; ho vandroñen-doza ondaty mpiloa-tiñakeo.
12 I have known that YHWH executes The judgment of the afflicted, The judgment of the needy.
Fantako te mpanozañe o misotrio t’Iehovà, naho ty zo’ o rarakeo.
13 Surely the righteous give thanks to Your Name, The upright dwell with Your presence!
Toe mañandriañe ty tahina’o o vantañeo, vaho himoneñe añatrefa’o eo o vañoñeo.
