Psalms 43

1 Vindicate me, O God, and plead my cause, Against a nation, without lovingkindness, From the man of deceit and perversity, wilt thou deliver me?

Meo to, ry Andrianañahare, mañalañalaña ho ahy amy fifeheañe tsy aman-Kàkey; hahao am’ondaty mamañahy naho mengokeo.

2 For, thou, art my defending God—Wherefore hast thou rejected me? Wherefore in gloom should I wander, because of the oppression of an enemy?

Ihe ro Andrianañaharen-kaozarako; Ino ty nifaria’o ahiko? Ino ty ibokobokoako am-pigoboñañe ao ie forekeken-drafelahy?

3 Send forth thy light and thy faithfulness, Let, them, lead me, Let them bring me into thy holy mountain, and into thy habitations:

Ahitrifo ty hazavà’o naho ty hatò’o, hiaolo, hanese ahy mb’amy vohi’o miavakey mb’eo, vaho mb’an-kivoho’o mb’eo.

4 That I may go in unto the altar of God, Unto GOD, mine exultant joy, —That I may praise thee with the lyre, O God—mine own God!

Le homb’an-­kitrelin’ Añahare mb’eo, mb’aman’Añahare mampinembanembañ’ ahy, vaho ho saboeko ami’ty marovany, t’i Abo-Tia, Andrianañahareko.

5 Why shouldst thou be cast down, O my soul? And why shouldst thou moan over me, Wait thou for God, for yet shall I praise him, As the triumph of my presence, and my God.

Ino ty ­mahalonjetse azo ty fiaiko tia? inoñe ty angoihoia’o amako ao? Mitamà an’Andriaenañahare; fa mbe handriañeko, i fandrombaham-piatrefako naho Andrianañaharekoy.
