Psalms 57
1 [For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Do Not Destroy." A poem by David, when he fled from Saul, in the cave.] Be merciful to me, God, be merciful to me, for my soul takes refuge in you. Yes, in the shadow of your wings, I will take refuge, until disaster has passed.
Tretrezo iraho ry Andrianañahare, iferenaiño, fa Ihe ro fitsoloham-piaiko; eka! an-talinjon’ ela’o ao ty fipalirako, ampara’ te ihelaña’ ty hankàñe.
2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who accomplishes my requests for me.
Kanjieko t’i Andrianañahare Abo-tia; Aman’ Añahare fahatafeterako.
3 He will send from heaven, and save me, he rebukes the one who is pursuing me. (Selah) God will send out his loving kindness and his truth.
Hahitri’e hirik’an-dikerañe ao ty fandrombahañe ahy, endaha’e i mandialia ahikoy. Selà Ho sangitrihen’ Añahare ty fiferenaiña’e naho ty hatò’e.
4 My soul is among lions. I lie among those who are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
An-teñateñan-diona ao ty fiaiko; itraofako handre o mpikofòke afoo; toe o ana’ ondatio, lefoñe naho ana-pale o famotsi’eo, fibara masioñe ty famele’iareo.
5 Be exalted, God, above the heavens. Let your glory be above all the earth.
Onjoneñe ambone’ i likerañey irehe, ry Andrianañahare, ambone’ ty tane toy iaby ty enge’o.
6 They have prepared a net for my steps. My soul is bowed down. They dig a pit before me. They fall into its midst themselves. (Selah)
Nikotepe’ iareo harato o liakoo; mibokobokoke ty fiaiko; nihalia’ iereo koboñe ty aoloko eo, f’ie nigodoñe am-po’e ao. Selà
7 My heart is steadfast, God, my heart is steadfast. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises.
Mijadoñe ty troko ry Andrianañahare, eka, gañe ty troko; hisabo iraho, eka hisabo fandrengeañe.
8 Wake up, my glory. Wake up, psaltery and harp. I will wake up the dawn.
Mivañona, ry engeko! Mitroara ry kararàke naho marovany, hampitsekafako ty fanjirik’andro!
9 I will give thanks to you, YHWH, among the peoples. I will sing praises to you among the nations.
Hañandriañe Azo iraho ry Talè añivo’ ondatio eo, ho rengeko an-tsabo amo kilakila‘ndatio ao.
10 For your great loving kindness reaches to the heavens, and your truth to the skies.
Amy te ra’elahy pak’ an-dindiñe añe ty fiferenaiña’o; le pak’an-drahoñe eñe ty hatò’o.
11 Be exalted, God, above the heavens. Let your glory be over all the earth.
Onjoneñe ambonen-dikerañ’eñe irehe ry Andrianañahare, ty enge’o ambone’ ty tane bey toy.
