Psalms 64

1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. Hear, O God, my voice, in my (meditation) You keep my life from the fear of an enemy,

Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Henoy ny feoko, raha mitaraina aho, Andriamanitra ô; arovy ny aiko amin’ ny tahotro ny fahavalo.

2 Hide me from the secret counsel of evildoers, From the tumult of workers of iniquity.

Afeno aho tsy ho azon’ ny firaisan-tetiky ny ratsy fanahy, sy ny fitabataban’ ny mpanao ratsy,

3 Who sharpened their tongue as a sword, They directed their arrow—a bitter word.

Izay mandranitra ny lelany ho tahaka ny sabatra, ka mikendry handefa ny zana-tsipìkany, dia teny mangidy.

4 To shoot the perfect in secret places, Suddenly they shoot him, and do not fear.

Mba hitifitra mangingina ny mahitsy; mitifitra azy tampoka izy ka tsy matahotra.

5 They strengthen an evil thing for themselves, They recount of the hiding of snares, They have said, “Who looks at it?”

Hamafiny ny hevi-dratsiny; mifampitaona hanao fandri-totofana izy ka manao hoe: iza no hahita izany?

6 They search out perverse things, “We perfected a searching search,” And the inward part of man, and the heart, [are] deep.

Manao saim-petsy izy; omaniny tsara ny sain-dalina voaheviny; lalina ny ao anatin’ ny olombelona, dia ny fony.

7 And God shoots them [with] an arrow, Their wounds have been sudden,

Mitifitra azy Andriamanitra; tampoka toy ny fiantefan’ ny zana-tsipìka no fahavoazany.

8 And they cause him to stumble, Their own tongue [is] against them, Every looker on them flees away.

Apotrany izy ka voasingotra ny lelany ihany; mandositra izay rehetra mahita azy.

9 And all men fear, and declare the work of God, And they have wisely considered His deed.

Dia matahotra ny olona rehetra ka manambara ny ataon’ Andriamanitra sady mandinika tsara ny asany.

10 The righteous rejoice in YHWH, And have trusted in Him, And all the upright of heart boast!

Mifaly amin’ i Jehovah ny marina ka mialoka aminy; eny, mifaly tena ny mahitsy fo rehetra.
