Psalms 59
1 God, save me from my enemies! Protect me from those who want to attack me!
Hahao an-drafelahiko raho ry Andrianañahare: ampitroaro an-kaboañe ty amo miatreatre ahikoo.
2 Rescue me from men who want to do what is wicked, men who are murderers!
Avotsoro amo mitolon-katsivokarañeo, vaho rombaho am’ondaty mampiori-dioo.
3 Look! They are waiting to kill me! Fierce men have gathered to assault me. Yahweh, they are doing that even though I have not done what is wrong!
Hehe t’ie mamandroñe ty fiaiko, robohe’ o mpitrotrofiak’ amako, tsy ty amo fiolàkoo ndra o tahikoo, ry Iehovà.
4 It is not because I have committed any sin [against them] that they run and get ready to attack me.
Tsy o fandilarakoo ty falisa’ iareo hiatreatre ahy; mivañona hañolora’o vaho mivazohoa.
5 Yahweh my God, commander of the armies of heaven, the one we Israelis [worship], arise and punish the [ungodly/heathen people of] all the nations; do not be merciful to those [wicked people] who have (acted treacherously toward/secretly planned to harm) us.
Ihe arè ry Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ i màroy, Andrianañahare Israele, mivañona, handilova’o o fifeheañeo; ko tretrezeñe o mpiola lo-tserekeo. Selà
6 They return each evening, snarling like vicious dogs [SIM] as they prowl around this city.
Mibalike haleñe iereo, mañaolo hoe amboa vaho mikariokariok’ amy rovay.
7 They loudly say terrible things; they say [MTY] many things that [injure people like] [MET] swords do, but they think, “No one will [RHQ] hear us!”
Hehe t’ie mamore am-bava, fibara ty an-tsoñi’e, manao ty hoe: Ia ty mahajanjiñe.
8 But Yahweh, you laugh at them. You (scoff at/ridicule) the [people of the pagan] nations.
F’ihe, ry Iehovà, ro hiankahak’ am’iareo, hene sirikae’o o fifeheañeo.
9 God, I have confidence in you because you are very strong; you are my refuge.
O ry Haozarako, fitamakoo; kijoli-aboko t’i Andrianañahare.
10 Because you love me, you will come to save me; you will allow me to watch while you defeat my enemies.
Hiaolo ahy t’i Andrianañaharem-piferenaiñ’ ahiko, hampisamban’ Añahare o rafelahikoo.
11 But do not kill them [immediately] in order that my people will not forget [how you punished them]! [Instead], Lord, [you who are like a] shield [that protects us] [MET], scatter them by your power, and [then] defeat them.
Ko vonoe’o hey iereo, tsy mone haliño ondatikoo; ampirererereo ami’ty haozara’o, vaho afotsaho, ry Talè, fikala’ay.
12 Because what they say [MTY] is sinful, allow them to be trapped for being proud. Because they are [always] cursing and telling lies,
ty amo hakeom-palie’ iareoo, o saontsim-pivimbi’eo, ee t’ie ho tsepaheñe am-pirengevoha’e, naho amo fatse vaho fandañitse aaka’ iareoo.
13 because you are angry, get rid of them; destroy them completely in order that people will know that you rule over us, your Israeli people, and that you rule over all the earth.
Mongoro an-kaviñerañe, zamano ho modo, hampandrendrehañe te mifehe am’ Iakobe ao t’i Andrianañahare, sikala añ’olo’ ty tane toy añe, Selà
14 My enemies return each evening, snarling like [vicious] dogs as they prowl around this city.
Mimpoly haleñe iereo, mañaolo hoe amboa, vaho mbeo-mbeo an-drova atoy,
15 They roam around, searching for food; and if they do not find enough, they growl.
Mihelahela avao, mipay haneñe, vaho mitromoroñe naho tsy vontsy.
16 But [as for me], I will sing about your power; [every] morning I will sing joyfully about your faithfully loving [us]. I will sing about how you protected me when I was [very] distressed.
Aa naho izaho, ho saboeko ty haozara’o; Eka, hipoñafako te maraiñe ty amy fiferenaiña’oy; amy te Ihe ro tambohoko, fitsolohako añ’andron-kaloviloviako.
17 God, you are the one who enables me to be strong; you are my refuge; you faithfully love me.
Ry Haozarako, hisaboako am-pandrengeañe: amy te mpikalañ’ ahy t’i Andrianañahare, i Andrianañaharem-piferenaiñ’ ahiy.
