Salamo 5

1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Hampiarahina amin’ ny sodina. Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Jehovah ô, henoy ny teniko; fantaro ny eritreritro.

For the Chief Musician; with the Nehiloth. A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my (meditation)

2 Henoy ny feon’ ny fitarainako, ry Mpanjakako sy Andriamanitro ô; fa Hianao no ivavahako.

Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee do I pray.

3 Jehovah ô, maraina no handrenesanao ny feoko; maraina no hivavahako aminao, ka hanandrandra aho.

O LORD, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice; in the morning will I order [my prayer] unto thee, and will keep watch.

4 Fa tsy Andriamanitra mankasitraka izay ratsy Hianao; tsy hitoetra aminao ny ratsy.

For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: evil shall not sojourn with thee.

5 Tsy hahazo mijanona eo imasonao ny mpirehareha; halanao ny mpanao ratsy rehetra.

The arrogant shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

6 Haringanao ny mpiteny lainga; ny olona mpandatsa-drà sy mpamitaka dia ataon’ i Jehovah ho zava-betaveta.

Thou shalt destroy them that speak lies: the LORD abhorreth the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

7 Fa izaho kosa noho ny haben’ ny famindram-ponao dia hiditra ao an-tranonao; hiankohoka manatrika ny lapanao masìna amin’ ny fahatahorana anao aho.

But as for me, in the multitude of thy lovingkindness will I come into thy house: in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.

8 Jehovah ô, tariho amin’ ny fahamarinanao aho noho ny amin’ ny mpampahory ahy; ataovy marina eo anoloako ny lalanao.

Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way plain before my face.

9 Fa tsy misy azo itokiana ny aloaky ny vavany; ny ao anatiny dia tena faharatsiana; fasana misokatra ny tendany. Mandambolambo ny lelany izy.

For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness: their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.

10 Helohy izy, Andriamanitra ô; Aoka ho lavon’ ny saina ataony izy; Roahy izy noho ny haben’ ny fahotany, satria efa niodina taminao.

Hold them guilty, O God; let them fall by their own counsels: thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.

11 Dia hifaly izay rehetra mialoka aminao, hihoby mandrakariva izy, koa miarova azy Hianao; ka dia ho ravoravo aminao izay tia ny anaranao.

But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice, let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.

12 Fa Hianao, Jehovah ô, mitahy ny marina; fankasitrahana no ataonao manodidina azy toy ny ampinga lehibe.

For thou wilt bless the righteous; O LORD, thou wilt compass him with favour as with a shield.
