Salamo 101

1 Salamo nataon’ i Davida.

“By David, a psalm.” Of kindness and justice will I sing: unto thee, O Lord, will I sing praises.

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

I will carefully regard the way of the perfect: oh when will thou come unto me? I will walk in the integrity 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 will not set before my eyes a godless thing; to commit a departure [from righteousness] do I hate; it shall not cleave to me.

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

A perverse heart shall depart from me: evil will I not know.

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

Whoso slandereth in secret his neighbor, him will I destroy: whoso hath proud eyes and a haughty heart, him will I not suffer.

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

My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may abide with me: he that walketh in the way of the perfect, he it is that shall serve me.

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

He that practiseth deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that speaketh falsehoods shall not succeed before my eyes.

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

Every morning will I destroy all the wicked of the land, cutting off from the city of the Lord all the wrong-doers.
