Salamo 101

1 Salamo nataon’ i Davida.

A Psalm of David. I will sing to thee, O Lord, of mercy and judgment; I will sing a psalm,

2 Hitandrina ny lalana marina aho; Rahoviana no ho tonga atỳ amiko Hianao? Handeha amin’ ny fahitsian’ ny foko ao anatin’ ny tranoko aho.

and I will be wise in a blameless way. When wilt thou come to me? I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.

3 Tsy hampitoetra zava-dratsy eo anoloan’ ny masoko aho; Halako ny mivadika, Tsy hikambana amiko izany.

I have not set before mine eyes any unlawful ting; I have hated transgressors.

4 Ny fo maditra hiala amiko; Tsy hankasitraka iza ratsy aho,

A perverse heart has not cleaved to me; I have not known an evil man, forasmuch as he turns away from me.

5 Izay manendrikendrika ny namany mangingina dia hofongorako; Tsy tohako izay miandranandrana sy miavonavona am-po;

Him that privily speaks against his neighbour, him have I driven from [me]: he that is proud in look and insatiable in heart, —with him I have not eaten.

6 Ny masoko hijery izay olo-mahatoky amin’ ny tany mba hitoerany ato amiko; Izay mandeha amin’ ny lalana marina no hanompo ahy.

Mine eyes [shall be] upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walked in a perfect way, the same ministered to me.

7 Tsy mba hitoetra ao anatin’ ny tranoko izay manao fitaka; Tsy mba hijanona eo anoloan’ ny masoko izay milaza lainga.

The proud doer dwelt not in the midst of my house; the unjust speaker prospered not in my sight.

8 Haringako isa-maraina ny ratsy fanahy rehetra amin’ ny tany, Mba hofongorako ny mpanao ratsy rehetra tsy ho ao an-tanànan’ i Jehovah.

Early did I slay all the sinners of the land, that I might destroy out of the city of the Lord all that work iniquity.
