Salamo 139
1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon’ i Davida.
“To the chief musician, by David, a psalm.” O Lord! thou hast searched me through, and thou knowest [me].
2 Hianao no mahalala ny fipetrako sy ny fitsangako Sady mahafantatra ny hevitro eny lavitra eny.
Thou indeed knowest my sitting down and my rising up, thou understandest my thinking while yet afar off.
3 Voadinikao ny toetro, na mandeha aho, na mandry; Ary fantatrao tsara ny alehako rehetra.
My walking and my lying down hast thou limited, and with all my ways art thou acquainted.
4 Fa, indro, tsy misy teny tsy fantatrao eo amin’ ny lelako, Jehovah ô.
For, while there is not a word on my tongue, lo, thou, O Lord, knowest it entirely.
5 Manodidina ahy eo ivohoko sy eo anatrehako Hianao, Ary apetrakao amiko ny tananao.
Behind and before hast thou hedged me in, and thou placest upon me thy hand.
6 Fahalalana mahagaga ahy loatra izany, Eny, avo loatra ka tsy tratro.
Too wonderful is such knowledge for me: it is too exalted, I cannot attain unto 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 away from thy presence?
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 should ascend into heaven, thou art there; and if I should make my bed in the nether world, behold, thou art there. (Sheol h7585)
9 Na dia maka ny elatry ny maraina aza aho, Mba hitoetra any am-paran’ ny ranomasina,
If I should lift up the wings of the morning-dawn, if I should 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 would thy hand lead me, and thy right hand would seize hold of me.
11 Ary na dia hoy izaho aza: Aoka ny maizina hanarona ahy, Ary aoka ny mazava manodidina ahy ho tonga alina,
If I said, Surely darkness shall enshroud me, and into night [be turned] the light about me:
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.
Yet even darkness can obscure nothing from thee; but the night will shine like the day; both the darkness and the light are alike [to thee].
13 Fa Hianao no nahary ny voako; Namolavola ahy tao an-kibon-dreniko Hianao.
For thou possessest my reins: thou hast covered me in 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 thank thee therefore, that I am [so] fearfully [and] wonderfully made: wonderful are thy works; and that 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 being was not concealed from thee, when I was made in secret, when I was [so to say] embroidered in the lowest 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.
My undeveloped substance did thy eyes see; and in thy book were all of them written down—the days which have been formed, while yet not one of them was here.
17 Endrey, zava-tsoa amiko indrindra ny hevitrao, Andriamanitra ô! Akory ny hamaron’ ny isany!
And how precious are unto me thy thoughts, O God! how mightily great is their sum!
18 Raha hanisa azy aho, dia maro isa lavitra noho ny fasika izy; Raha mifoha aho, dia mbola aminao ihany.
Should I count them, they would be more numerous than the sand: I awake, and I am still with thee.
19 Haringanao mihitsy ny ratsy fanahy, Andriamanitra ô, Ary mialà amiko, ianareo mpandatsa-drà.
If thou wouldst but slay the wicked, O God! and ye men of blood, depart from me.
20 Dia izay manonona Anao ho enti-mamitaka, Jehovah ô, Eny, ny fahavalonao izay manonona Anao foana.
Who speak of thee for a wicked end, thy enemies, that bear [thy name] for a vain purpose.
21 Tsy hankahala izay mankahala Anao va aho, Jehovah ô, Sy ho tezitra amin’ izay mitsangana hanohitra Anao?
Behold, those that hate thee I ever hate, O Lord; and for those that rise up against thee do I feel loathing.
22 Halako dia halako marina tokoa ireny; Efa fahavaloko ireny.
With the utmost hatred do I hate them: enemies are they become unto me.
23 Diniho aho, Andriamanitra ô, ary fantaro ny foko; Izahao toetra aho, ary fantaro ny eritreritro;
Search me through, O God, and know my heart; probe me, and know my thoughts:
24 Ary izahao na misy lalana mampahory ato anatiko, Dia tariho amin’ ny lalana mandrakizay aho.
And see if there be a way of perverseness in me, and lead me on the way of eternity.
