Salamo 31
1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Jehovah ô, Hianao no ialofako; aoka tsy ho menatra akory mandrakizay aho; vonjeo amin’ ny fahamarinanao aho.
To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. In Thee, O Jehovah, I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed to the age, In Thy righteousness deliver me.
2 Atongilano amiko ny sofinao, faingàna hamonjy ahy; aoka ho vatolampiko fiarovana mafy Hianao sy batery fiarovana hamonjena ahy.
Incline unto me Thine ear hastily, deliver me, Be to me for a strong rock, For a house of bulwarks to save me.
3 Fa harambatoko sy batery fiarovana ho ahy Hianao; ary noho ny anaranao no hitondrànao sy hitarihanao ahy.
For my rock and my bulwark [art] Thou, For Thy name's sake lead me and tend me.
4 Hanafaka ahy amin’ ny fandrika harato izay nafeniny hamandrihany ahy Hianao; fa Hianao no fiarovana mafy ho ahy.
Bring me out from the net that they hid for me, For Thou [art] my strength.
5 Eo an-tananao no atolotro ny fanahiko; fa efa nanavotra ahy Hianao, Jehovah ô, Andriamanitry ny fahamarinana.
Into Thy hand I commit my spirit, Thou hast redeemed me, Jehovah God of truth.
6 Halako izay mivavaka amin’ ny sampy; fa Jehovah kosa no itokiako.
I have hated the observers of lying vanities, And I toward Jehovah have been confident.
7 Hifaly sy ho ravoravo amin’ ny famindram-ponao aho; fa nahita ny fahantrako Hianao, ka nahafantatra ny fahorian’ ny fanahiko,
I rejoice, and am glad in Thy kindness, In that Thou hast seen mine affliction, Thou hast known in adversities my soul.
8 ary tsy mba nangeja ahy teo an-tànan’ ny fahavalo; fa efa nampitoetra ny tongotro eo amin’ ny malalaka Hianao.
And Thou hast not shut me up, Into the hand of an enemy, Thou hast caused my feet to stand in a broad place.
9 Mamindrà fo amiko, Jehovah ô, fa azom-pahoriana aho; simban’ alahelo ny masoko sy ny fanahiko ary ny tenako.
Favour me, O Jehovah, for distress [is] to me, Mine eye, my soul, and my body Have become old by provocation.
10 Fa lanin’ alahelo ny aiko, sady lanim-pisentoana ny taonako; Tsy manan-kery aho noho ny heloko, ary efa lany ny taolako.
For my life hath been consumed in sorrow And my years in sighing. Feeble because of mine iniquity hath been my strength, And my bones have become old.
11 Noho ny ataon’ ny fahavaloko rehetra dia efa tonga fandatsa aho, eny, na dia amin’ ny namako aza, sady atahoran’ ny olom-pantatro aho; izay mahita ahy eny ivelany mandositra ahy.
Among all mine adversaries I have been a reproach, And to my neighbours exceedingly, And a fear to mine acquaintances, Those seeing me without — fled from me.
12 Efa hadino tahaka ny olona maty izay tsy tsaroana intsony aho; tahaka ny vilany ariana aho.
I have been forgotten as dead out of mind, I have been as a perishing vessel.
13 Fa mandre ny endrikendriky ny maro aho; misy fampangorohoroana manodidina, raha miara-mioko hamely ahy izy, ka miray tetika hahafaty ny aiko.
For I have heard an evil account of many, Fear [is] round about. In their being united against me, To take my life they have devised,
14 Nefa izaho matoky Anao, Jehovah ô; hoy izaho: Andriamanitro Hianao.
And I on Thee — I have trusted, O Jehovah, I have said, 'Thou [art] my God.'
15 Eo an-tananao ny androko; Vonjeo aho tsy ho azon’ ny tanan’ ny fahavaloko sy izay manenjika ahy.
In Thy hand [are] my times, Deliver me from the hand of my enemies, And from my pursuers.
16 Ampamirapirato amin’ ny mpanomponao ny tavanao; vonjeo amin’ ny famindram-ponao aho.
Cause Thy face to shine on Thy servant, Save me in Thy kindness.
17 Aoka tsy ho menatra aho, Jehovah ô, satria miantso Anao; fa aoka kosa ho menatra ny ratsy fanahy ka hangina any amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita. (Sheol h7585)
O Jehovah, let me not be ashamed, For I have called Thee, let the wicked be ashamed, Let them become silent to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
18 Aoka hangina ny molotra mandainga, izay miteny sahisahy hanohitra ny marina, amin’ ny avonavona sy ny fanamavoana.
Let lips of falsehood become dumb, That are speaking against the righteous, Ancient sayings, in pride and contempt.
19 Akory re ny haben’ ny zava-tsoanao voarakitrao ho an’ ny matahotra Anao! dia izay nataonao teo anatrehan’ ny zanak’ olombelona ho an’ izay mialoka aminao!
How abundant is Thy goodness, That Thou hast laid up for those fearing Thee,
20 Hanafina azy ao amin’ ny fiafenana eo anatrehanao Hianao, mba tsy ho tratry ny teti-dratsy ataon’ ny olona izy; hampiery azy ao an-tranonao Hianao, mba tsy ho azon’ ny lela mifanditra izy.
Thou hast wrought for those trusting in Thee, Before sons of men. Thou hidest them in the secret place of Thy presence, From artifices of man, Thou concealest them in a tabernacle, From the strife of tongues.
21 Isaorana anie Jehovah; fa nataony mahagaga ny famindram-pony tamiko tao an-tanàna mimanda.
Blessed [is] Jehovah, For He hath made marvellous His kindness To me in a city of bulwarks.
22 Fa hoy izaho tamin’ ny fahatairako; voafongotra tsy ho eo imasonao aho; kanjo nihaino ny feon’ ny fifonako ihany Hianao, raha nitaraina taminao aho.
And I — I have said in my haste, 'I have been cut off from before Thine eyes,' But Thou hast heard the voice of my supplications, In my crying unto Thee.
23 Tiava an’ i Jehovah, ry olony masìna rehetra; miaro ny marina Jehovah, ary mamaly dia mamaly ny mpiavonavona Izy.
Love Jehovah, all ye His saints, Jehovah is keeping the faithful, And recompensing abundantly a proud doer.
24 Mahereza, ary aoka hatanjaka ny fonareo, dia ianareo rehetra izay manantena an’ i Jehovah.
Be strong, and He strengtheneth your heart, All ye who are waiting for Jehovah!
