Salamo 41
1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Sambatra izay mahatsiaro ny malahelo; Jehovah hamonjy azy amin’ ny andro fahoriana.
“To the chief musician, a psalm of David.” Happy is he that careth for the poor: on the day of evil will the Lord deliver him.
2 Jehovah hitandrina sy hiaro azy tsy ho faty; hatao ho sambatra ambonin’ ny tany izy, ary tsy mba hatolotrao amin’ ny sitrapon’ ny fahavalony.
The Lord will preserve him, and keep him alive; he shall be made happy on the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the revengeful desire of his enemies.
3 Jehovah hanohana azy eo ambonin’ ny farafara hitsaboana azy. Ny fandriany rehetra eo am-paharariany dia hovanao.
The Lord will sustain him upon the bed of painful disease: thou changest all his couch in his sickness.
4 Hoy izaho: Jehovah ô, mamindrà fo amiko; sitrano ny fanahiko, fa efa nanota taminao aho.
I said, Lord, be gracious unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.
5 Ny fahavaloko maniry ahy ho simba ka manao hoe: Rahoviana no ho faty izy, ka ho very ny anarany?
My enemies speak evil of me, When will he die, and his name perish?
6 Ary raha avy mamangy, izy dia miteny zava-poana; ny fony mamory faharatsiana ho an’ ny tenany; mivoaka eny ivelany izy ka milazalaza.
And if he come to see [me], he speaketh falsely: his heart gathereth wickedness to itself; he goeth abroad [and] speaketh it.
7 Mitakoritsika ahy izay rehetra mankahala ahy; misaina hanisy ratsy ahy izy.
Altogether whisper against me all that hate me: against me do they devise my injury.
8 Tena zava-dratsy, hoy izy, no aidina aminy; ary raha mandry izy dia tsy hitsangana intsony.
“His godless deed [say they] is poured out over him: as he lieth there he will never more rise up again.”
9 Eny, ny sakaizako, izay maha-toky ahy sady nihinana ny haniko, no nanangana ny ombelahin-tongony hamely ahy.
Yea, even the man that should have sought my welfare, in whom I trusted, who eateth my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.
10 Fa ianao kosa Jehovah ô, mamindrà fo amiko, ka atsangano aho mba hamaliako azy.
But thou, O Lord, be gracious unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite it unto them.
11 Izao no hahafantarako fa mankasitraka ahy Hianao, dia ny tsy anakoran’ ny fahavaloko ahy.
By this do I know that thou art pleased with me, that my enemy doth not triumph over me.
12 Ary ny amiko, dia manohana ahy amin’ ny fahitsiako Hianao, ka mampitoetra ahy eo anatrehanao mandrakizay.
But as for me, thou upholdest me in my integrity, and placest me before thy presence for ever.
13 Isaorana anie Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, hatramin’ ny taloha indrindra ka mandrakizay. Amena dia Amena.
Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen. BEGIM
