Salamo 120

1 Fihirana fiakarana.

A Song of Ascents. In my distress, I cried to the LORD. He answered me.

2 Jehovah ô, vonjeo ny fanahiko amin’ ny molotra mandainga, Eny, amin’ ny lela mamitaka

Deliver my soul, LORD, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue.

3 Inona no homeny anao, ary inona koa no hataony aminao, Ry lela mamitaka?

What will be given to you, and what will be done more to you, you deceitful tongue?

4 Zana-tsipìkan’ ny mahery sady voaranitra, Mbamin’ ny vain’ afon’ anjavidy.

Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.

5 Lozako, fa mivahiny eto amin’ ny Maseka aho Ary mitoetra ato an-dain’ ny Kedarita!

Woe is me, that I live in Meshech, that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!

6 Ela loatra izay no nitoeran’ ny fanahiko teo amin’ Izay tsy tia fihavanana.

My soul has had her dwelling too long with him who hates peace.

7 Raha izaho, dia fihavanana; Kanjo nony miteny aho, dia mila ady kosa ireny.

I am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.
