Salamo 139

1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon’ i Davida.

Lord, thou hast proved me, and known me:

2 Hianao no mahalala ny fipetrako sy ny fitsangako Sady mahafantatra ny hevitro eny lavitra eny.

Thou hast know my sitting down, and my rising up.

3 Voadinikao ny toetro, na mandeha aho, na mandry; Ary fantatrao tsara ny alehako rehetra.

Thou hast understood my thoughts afar off: my path and my line thou hast searched out.

4 Fa, indro, tsy misy teny tsy fantatrao eo amin’ ny lelako, Jehovah ô.

And thou hast foreseen all my ways: for there is no speech in my tongue.

5 Manodidina ahy eo ivohoko sy eo anatrehako Hianao, Ary apetrakao amiko ny tananao.

Behold, O Lord, thou hast known all things, the last and those of old: thou hast formed me, and hast laid thy hand upon me.

6 Fahalalana mahagaga ahy loatra izany, Eny, avo loatra ka tsy tratro.

Thy knowledge is become wonderful to me: it is high, and I cannot reach to it.

7 Aiza no hialako amin’ ny Fanahinao? Aiza no handosirako tsy ho eo anatrehanao?

Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy face?

8 Na dia miakatra any an-danitra aza aho dia any Hianao; Ary na dia manao ny fiainan-tsi-hita ho fandriako aza aho, indro, any Hianao. (Sheol h7585)

If I ascend into heaven, thou art there: if I descend into hell, thou art present. (Sheol h7585)

9 Na dia maka ny elatry ny maraina aza aho, Mba hitoetra any am-paran’ ny ranomasina,

If I take my wings early in the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea:

10 Dia mbola entin’ ny tananao ihany aho, na dia izany aza, Sy hazonin’ ny tananao ankavanana.

Even there also shall thy hand lead me: and thy right hand shall hold me.

11 Ary na dia hoy izaho aza: Aoka ny maizina hanarona ahy, Ary aoka ny mazava manodidina ahy ho tonga alina,

And I said: Perhaps darkness shall cover me: and night shall be my light in my pleasures.

12 Tsia, fa ny maizina aza tsy mahamaizina aminao; Fa ny alina dia mahazava toy ny andro ihany, Ka sahala ny mazava sy ny maizina.

But darkness shall not be dark to thee, and night shall be light as day: the darkness thereof, and the light thereof are alike to thee.

13 Fa Hianao no nahary ny voako; Namolavola ahy tao an-kibon-dreniko Hianao.

For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast protected me from my mother’s womb.

14 Hidera Anao aho; fa mahatahotra sy mahatalanjona ny nanaovana ahy; Mahagaga ny asanao; Ary fantatry ny fanahiko marimarina izany.

I will praise thee, for thou art fearfully magnified: wonderful are thy works, and my soul knoweth right well.

15 Ny tenako tsy niafina taminao, Fony natao tao amin’ ny miafina aho, Ka noforoninao hisy endrika tany ambanin’ ny tany.

My bone is not hidden from thee, which thou hast made in secret: and my substance in the lower parts of the earth.

16 Ny masonao efa nahita ahy na dia fony tsy mbola ary fady aza aho; Voasoratra teo amin’ ny bokinao avokoa ny andro voatendry, Fony tsy mbola nisy na dia iray akory aza.

Thy eyes did see my imperfect being, and in thy book all shall be written: days shall be formed, and no one in them.

17 Endrey, zava-tsoa amiko indrindra ny hevitrao, Andriamanitra ô! Akory ny hamaron’ ny isany!

But to me thy friends, O God, are made exceedingly honourable: their principality is exceedingly strengthened.

18 Raha hanisa azy aho, dia maro isa lavitra noho ny fasika izy; Raha mifoha aho, dia mbola aminao ihany.

I will number them, and they shall be multiplied above the sand: I rose up and am still with thee.

19 Haringanao mihitsy ny ratsy fanahy, Andriamanitra ô, Ary mialà amiko, ianareo mpandatsa-drà.

If thou wilt kill the wicked, O God: ye men of blood, depart from me:

20 Dia izay manonona Anao ho enti-mamitaka, Jehovah ô, Eny, ny fahavalonao izay manonona Anao foana.

Because you say in thought: They shall receive thy cities in vain.

21 Tsy hankahala izay mankahala Anao va aho, Jehovah ô, Sy ho tezitra amin’ izay mitsangana hanohitra Anao?

Have I not hated them, O Lord, that hated thee: and pine away because of thy enemies?

22 Halako dia halako marina tokoa ireny; Efa fahavaloko ireny.

I have hated them with a perfect hatred: and they are become enemies to me.

23 Diniho aho, Andriamanitra ô, ary fantaro ny foko; Izahao toetra aho, ary fantaro ny eritreritro;

Prove me, O God, and know my heart: examine me, and know my paths.

24 Ary izahao na misy lalana mampahory ato anatiko, Dia tariho amin’ ny lalana mandrakizay aho.

And see if there be in me the way of iniquity: and lead me in the eternal way.
