Salamo 143
1 Salamo nataon’ i Davida.
“A psalm of David.” O Lord, hear my prayer, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, in thy righteousness.
2 Ary aza dia mifandahatra amin’ ny mpanomponao eo am-pitsarana; Fa tsy misy olombelona ho marina eo anatrehanao.
And enter not into judgment with thy servant; for no living man can be regarded righteous before thee.
3 Fa nanenjika ny fanahiko ny fahavalo; Namely ny aiko ho lavo tamin’ ny tany izy: Nampitoeriny tao amin’ ny maizina aho, toy izay efa maty ela.
For the enemy hath pursued my soul; he hath crushed to the ground my life; he hath made me dwell in darkness, as those that are dead eternally.
4 Dia reraka ny fanahiko ato anatiko; Fadiranovana ny foko ato anatiko.
And my spirit within me is overwhelmed: in my bosom is my heart astounded.
5 Mahatsiaro ny andro fahiny ho Ary misaina ny asanao rehetra; Ny asan’ ny tananao no eritreretiko.
I remember the days of olden times: I meditate on all thy doings: on the work of thy hands do I reflect.
6 Mananty tanana aminao aho; Ny fanahiko dia tahaka ny tany mangetana eo anatrehanao. (Sela)
I spread forth my hands unto thee: my soul [longeth] for thee, as a thirsty land. (Selah)
7 Faingàna hamaly ahy, Jehovah ô, fa reraka ny fanahiko; Aza manafina ny tavanao amiko, Fandrao ho tahaka izay midìna any am-pasana aho.
Hasten, answer me, O Lord, my spirit falleth: hide not thy face from me, that I may not become like those that go down into the pit.
8 Ampandreneso ny famindram-ponao aho nony maraina, Fa Hianao no itokiako; Ampahalalao ahy izay lalana tokony halehako, Fa aminao no ananganako ny fanahiko.
Cause me to hear in the morning thy kindness; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way whereon I should walk; for unto thee do I lift up my soul.
9 Jehovah ô, vonjeo amin’ ny fa-havaloko aho; Ao aminao no iereko.
Deliver me, O Lord, from my enemies: by thee do I seek shelter.
10 Ampianaro hanao ny sitraponao aho; Fa Hianao no Andriamanitro; Aoka ny Fanahinao tsara no hitarihanao ahy amin’ izay tany marina.
Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; guide me on a level land.
11 Noho ny anaranao, Jehovah ô, velomy aho; Araka ny fahamarinanao avoahy ny fanahiko ho afaka amin’ ny fahoriana.
For thy sake, O Lord, revive me: in thy righteousness bring forth out of distress my soul.
12 Ary araka ny famindram-ponao fongory ny fahavaloko, Ka aringano izay rehetra mampahory ny fanahiko; Fa mpanomponao aho.
And in thy kindness destroy my enemies, and annihilate all the adversaries of my soul; far I am thy servant.
