Psalms 52

1 “For the leader of the music. A psalm of David, when Doeg, the Edomite, came and told Saul, and said to him, David is come to the house of Abimelech.” Why gloriest thou in mischief, thou man of violence? The goodness of God yet continueth daily.

O Fanalolahio, ino ty firoharohà’o hatsivokarañe? Lomoñandro ty ­fiferenaiñan’ Añahare.

2 Thy tongue deviseth mischief, Like a sharp razor, thou contriver of deceit!

Mikilily ­fandrotsahañe ty famele’o, manahake ty fiharatse masioñe; ty mpamañahy tia.

3 Thou lovest evil more than good, And to lie more than to speak truth. (Pause)

Tea’o ty raty te ami’ty soa; i lañitsey ta te hivolan-to. Selà

4 Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue!

No’o ze atao fivolan-katramoañe, ty fameleke mamañahy tia.

5 Thee also shall God utterly destroy! o He shall seize thee, and tear thee from thy dwelling-place, And uproot thee from the land of the living. (Pause)

Aa le harotsan’Añahare kitro-katroke, ho sintone’e, le hapitso’e amy kiboho’oy, vaho hombota’e an-tanen-kaveloñe. Selà

6 The righteous shall see and fear, And shall laugh at him.

Ho isa’ o vantañeo, naho hañeveñe vaho hiankahake ty hoe:

7 “Behold the man that made not God his strength, But trusted in the abundance of his riches, And placed his strength in his wickedness!”

Hehe t’indaty tsy nanao an’Andrianañahare ho fipalira’e; fe ty habei’ o vara’eo ty niatoa’e, vaho o fikinia’eo ty nihaozara’e.

8 But I shall be like a green olive-tree in the house of God; I will trust in the goodness of God for ever and ever.

Aa naho izaho, le hoe sakoa mandrevake añ’anjomban’Añahare ao; iatoako nainai’e donia ty fiferenaiñan’ Añahare,

9 I will praise thee for ever for what thou hast done; I will trust in thy name, because it is good, Before the eyes of thy godly ones!

Andriañeko nainai’e irehe, amy te Ihe ty nanao izay, vaho ho tamaeko i tahina’oy ie ty soa añatrefa’ o noro’oo.
