Salamo 51
1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon’ i Davida, fony Natana mpaminany nankao aminy rehefa naka an’ i Batseba izy. Mamindrà fo amiko, Andriamanitra ô, araka ny fahasoavanao; araka ny haben’ ny fiantranao vonoy ny fahadisoako.
For the chief musician. A psalm of David; when Nathan the prophet came to him after he had slept with Bathsheba. Have mercy on me, God, because of your covenant faithfulness; for the sake of the multitude of your merciful actions, blot out my transgressions.
2 Sasao madio aho mba ho afa-keloka, ary diovy aho mba ho afa-pahotana.
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.
3 Fa tsaroako ny fahadisoako, ary eo anatrehako mandrakariva ny fahotako.
For I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me.
4 Taminao dia taminao ihany no nanotako, ary izay ratsy eo imasonao no efa nataoko, mba ho marina Hianao, raha miteny, ary tsy hanan-tsiny Hianao, raha mitsara.
Against you, you only, I have sinned and done what is evil in your sight; you are right when you speak; you are correct when you judge.
5 Indro, tamin’ ny heloka no niterahana ahy, ary tamin’ ny fahotana no torontoronina ahy ny reniko.
See, I was born in iniquity; as soon as my mother conceived me, I was in sin.
6 Indro, fahamarinana ao am-po no sitrakao; ary fahendrena ao amin’ ny miafina no ampahafantarinao ahy.
See, you desire trustworthiness in my inner self; and you teach me wisdom in the secret place within.
7 Diovy hysopa aho ho afa-pahotana, dia hadio; sasao aho, dia ho fotsy mangatsakatsaka.
Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
8 Ampandreneso fifaliana sy faharavoravoana aho, hifalian’ ny taolana izay voavakivakinao.
Make me hear joy and gladness so that the bones that you have broken may rejoice.
9 Afeno ny tavanao ny fahotako ary vonoy ny heloko rehetra.
Hide your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquities.
10 Amorony fo madio aho, Andriamanitra ô; ary havaozy hiorina marina ny fanahiko ato anatiko.
Create in me a clean heart, God, and renew a right spirit within me.
11 Aza manary ahy hiala eo anatrehanao; ary aza manaisotra ny Fanahinao Masìna amiko.
Do not drive me away from your presence, and do not take your holy Spirit from me.
12 Ampodio amiko ny fifaliana amin’ ny famonjenao; ary tohàny fanahy mazoto aho.
Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and sustain me with a willing spirit.
13 Dia hampianatra ny olon-diso ny lalanao aho; ary ny mpanota hampiverenina aminao.
Then will I teach transgressors your ways, and sinners will be converted to you.
14 Vonjeo ho afaka amin’ ny valin-drà aho, Andriamanitra ô, Andriamanitry ny famonjena ahy; hihoby ny fahamarinanao ny vavako.
Forgive me for shedding blood, God of my salvation, and I will shout for the joy of your righteousness.
15 Tompo ô, sokafy ny molotro, dia hanambara ny fiderana Anao ny vavako.
Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will express your praise.
16 Fa tsy fanatitra no sitrakao; raha izany dia nomeko ihany; ny fanatitra dorana tsy mahafaly Anao.
For you do not delight in sacrifice, or I would give it; you have no pleasure in burnt offerings.
17 Ny fanatitra ho an’ Andriamanitra dia fanahy torotoro; ny fo torotoro sy mangorakoraka, Andriamanitra ô, tsy mba ataonao tsinontsinona.
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit. You, God, will not despise a broken and a contrite heart.
18 Manaova soa amin’ i Ziona araka ny fahasoavanao; ataovy ny mandan’ i Jerosalema.
Do good in your good pleasure to Zion; rebuild the walls of Jerusalem.
19 Dia ho sitrakao ny fanati-pahamarinana sy ny fanatitra dorana ary ny fanatitra levonina amin’ ny afo; dia hanatitra vantotr’ ombilahy eo amin’ ny alitaranao ny olona.
Then will you delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, in burnt offerings and whole burnt offerings; then our people will offer bulls on your altar.
