Salamo 3
1 Salamo nataon’ i Davida, fony izy nandositra an’ i Absaloma zanany. Jehovah ô, akory izato hamaroan’ ny mampahory ahy! Maro no mitsangana hanohitra ahy.
A psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. Yahweh, how many are my enemies! Many have risen against me.
2 Maro no milaza ny fanahiko hoe: tsy manam-pamonjena amin’ Andriamanitra izy. (Sela)
Many say about me, “There is no help for him from God.” (Selah)
3 Kanjo Hianao, Jehovah ô, no ampinga manodidina ahy, Voninahitro sy mpanandratra ny lohako.
But you, Yahweh, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
4 Amin’ ny feoko no iantsoako an’ i Jehovah, ary any an-tendrombohiny masìna no mamaly ahy Izy.
I lift up my voice to Yahweh, and he answers me from his holy hill. (Selah)
5 Izaho nandry ka natory; nifoha aho, satria Jehovah no manohana ahy. (Sela)
I lay down and slept; I awoke, for Yahweh protected me.
6 Tsy hatahotra olona alinalina aho, izay milahatra manodidina hamely ahy.
I will not be afraid of the multitudes of people who have set themselves against me on every side.
7 Mitsangàna, Jehovah ô; vonjeo aho, Andriamanitro ô; fa efa namely ny takolaky ny fahavaloko rehetra Hianao; ny nifin’ ny ratsy fanahy novakivakinao.
Rise up, Yahweh! Save me, my God! For you will hit all my enemies on the jaw; you will break the teeth of the wicked.
8 An’ i Jehovah ny famonjena; Ho amin’ ny olonao anie ny fitahianao. (Sela)
Salvation comes from Yahweh. May your blessings be on your people. (Selah)
