Psalms 61

1 To the chief Musician upon Neginah, [A Psalm] of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer.

Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Hampiarahina amin’ ny valiha. Nataon’ i Davida. Henoy ny fitarainako, Andriamanitra ô; tandremo ny fivavako.

2 From the end of the earth will I cry to thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock [that] is higher than I.

Any am-paran’ ny tany no hiantsoako Anao raha reraka ny foko; ento aho ho any amin’ ny vatolampy izay avo ka tsy tratro;

3 For thou hast been a shelter for me, [and] a strong tower from the enemy.

Fa aroko Hianao sy tilikambo mafy handosirako ny fahavalo.

4 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

Aoka hitoetra ao an-tranonao mandrakizay aho; aoka hialoka ao ambanin’ ny fanomban’ ny elatrao aho,

5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given [me] the heritage of those that fear thy name.

Fa Hianao, Andriamanitra ô efa nandre ny voadiko; efa nomenao ahy ny lovan’ izay matahotra ny anaranao.

6 Thou wilt prolong the king's life: [and] his years as many generations.

Halavao ny andron’ ny mpanjaka; aoka ny taonany hahatratra ny taranaka maro.

7 He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, [which] may preserve him.

Aoka hitoetra eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra mandrakizay izy; famindram-po sy fahamarinana no tendreo hiaro azy;

8 So will I sing praise to thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.

Ka dia izany no hankalazako ny anaranao mandrakizay, mba hanefako isan’ andro ny voadiko.
