Salamo 57
1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Al-tasheth. Miktama nataon’ i Davida tamin’ ny nandosirany an’ i Saoly tao anaty zohy. Mamindrà fo amiko. Andriamanitra ô, mamindrà fo amiko; fa Hianao no ialofan’ ny fanahiko; eny, ao amin’ ny aloky ny elatrao no ialofako, mandra-pahalasan’ ny loza.
For the leader. Al tashheth. A michtam of David, when he fled from Saul into a cave. Be gracious, O God, be gracious to me, for in you I take shelter. In your sheltering wings I take refuge, till ruin be over past.
2 Hitaraina amin’ Andriamanitra Avo Indrindra aho, dia amin’ Andriamanitra Izay mahatanteraka ho ahy.
I cry to the Most High God, to the God who accomplishes for me.
3 Haniraka avy any an-danitra Izy ka hamonjy ahy, raha miteny ratsy izay misafoaka manenjika ahy. (Sela) Eny, Andriamanitra haniraka ny famindram-pony sy ny fahamarinany.
He will send me his succour from heaven, he will thrust away those who would trample me. (Selah)
4 Ny fanahiko dia eo afovoan’ ny liona; handry eo amin’ ny masiaka aho, dia eo amin’ ny zanak’ olombelona, ― lefona sy zana-tsipìka ny nifiny, ary sabatra maranitra ny lelany.
In the midst of lions I lie, who devour human prey. Their teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue is a sharpened sword.
5 Misandrata any ambonin’ ny lanitra Hianao, Andriamanitra ô! aoka ho ambonin’ ny tany rehetra ny voninahitrao.
Be exalted, God, o’er the heavens, and your glory o’er all the earth.
6 Efa namela-pandrika harato haningotra ny diako izy, ary nampitanondrika ny fanahiko; nihady lavaka teo anoloako izy, kanjo ny tenany ihany no latsaka ao anatiny. (Sela)
They set a net for my feet, but in it was their own foot caught. Before me they dug a pit, but they fell into it themselves. (Selah)
7 Tafatoetra ny foko, Andriamanitra ô, eny, tafatoetra ny foko; hihira sy hankalaza aho.
My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast. I would sing, I would make music;
8 Mifohaza, ry voninahitro; mifohaza ry valiha sy lokanga; hifoha maraina koa aho.
awake, my soul. Awake, harp and lyre; I would wake the dawn.
9 Hidera Anao eny amin’ ny vahoaka aho, Tompo ô, hankalaza Anao eny amin’ ny firenena aho.
I would praise you among the peoples, O Lord, and make music among the nations to you;
10 Fa lehibe mihatra amin’ ny lanitra ny famindram-ponao, ary mihatra amin’ ny rahona ny fahamarinanao.
for great to heaven is your love, and your faithfulness to the clouds.
11 Misandrata any ambonin’ ny lanitra Hianao, Andriamanitra ô; aoka ho ambonin’ ny tany rehetra ny voninahitrao.
Be exalted, God, o’er the heavens, and your glory o’er all the earth.
