Salamo 142

1 Maskila nataon’ i Davida tamin’ izy tao anaty lavaka. Fivavahana. Ny feoko no itarainako amin’ i Jehovah; Ny feoko no ifonako amin’ i Jehovah.

A poem of David when was he in the cave a prayer. Voice my to Yahweh I cry out voice my to Yahweh I seek favor.

2 Loarako eo anatrehany ny fitarainako; Ambarako eo anatrehany ny fahoriako.

I pour out before him complaint my trouble my before him I tell.

3 Raha reraka ato anatiko ny fanahiko, dia fantatro ny alehako; Eo amin’ ny lalana izorako No nanafenany fandrika hamandrihany ahy.

When faints away on me - spirit my and you you know pathway my in [the] path which I walk people have hidden a snare for me.

4 Jereo eo ankavanana, ka izahao, Fa tsy misy olona mahalala ahy; Foana avokoa ny fiarovana ahy; Tsy misy miahy ny fanahiko.

Look right - and see and not [belongs] to me [one who] recognizes it has been lost a place of escape from me there not [is one who] cares for self my.

5 Mitaraina aminao aho, Jehovah ô; Hoy izaho: Hianao no aroko Sy anjarako eo amin’ ny tanin’ ny velona.

I cry out to you O Yahweh I say you [are] refuge my portion my in [the] land of the living.

6 Henoy ny fitarainako, Fa reraka indrindra aho; Vonjeo aho amin’ ny mpanenjika ahy, Fa tsy leoko ireny.

Pay attention! - to cry of entreaty my for I have become low exceedingly deliver me from [those who] harass me for they are [too] strong for me.

7 Avoahy hiala amin’ ny tranomaizina ny fanahiko, Mba hiderako ny anaranao; Hanodidina ahy ny marina, Satria manisy soa ahy Hianao.

Bring out! from prison - self my to give thanks to name your me they will surround righteous [people] for you deal bountifully towards me.
