< 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 Chief Musician. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A poem by David, when he fled from Saul, in the cave. Be merciful to me, God, be merciful to me, for my soul takes refuge in you. Yes, in the shadow of your wings, I will take refuge, until disaster has passed.
2 Hitaraina amin’ Andriamanitra Avo Indrindra aho, dia amin’ Andriamanitra Izay mahatanteraka ho ahy.
I cry out to God Most High, to God who accomplishes my requests 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 from heaven, and save me, he rebukes the one who is pursuing me. (Selah) God will send out his loving kindness and his truth.
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.
My soul is among lions. I lie among those who are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
5 Misandrata any ambonin’ ny lanitra Hianao, Andriamanitra ô! aoka ho ambonin’ ny tany rehetra ny voninahitrao.
Be exalted, God, above the heavens! Let your glory be above 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 have prepared a net for my steps. My soul is bowed down. They dig a pit before me. They fall into the middle of it themselves. (Selah)
7 Tafatoetra ny foko, Andriamanitra ô, eny, tafatoetra ny foko; hihira sy hankalaza aho.
My heart is steadfast, God. My heart is steadfast. I will sing, yes, I will sing praises.
8 Mifohaza, ry voninahitro; mifohaza ry valiha sy lokanga; hifoha maraina koa aho.
Wake up, my glory! Wake up, lute and harp! I will wake up the dawn.
9 Hidera Anao eny amin’ ny vahoaka aho, Tompo ô, hankalaza Anao eny amin’ ny firenena aho.
I will give thanks to you, Lord, among the peoples. I will sing praises to you among the nations.
10 Fa lehibe mihatra amin’ ny lanitra ny famindram-ponao, ary mihatra amin’ ny rahona ny fahamarinanao.
For your great loving kindness reaches to the heavens, and your truth to the skies.
11 Misandrata any ambonin’ ny lanitra Hianao, Andriamanitra ô; aoka ho ambonin’ ny tany rehetra ny voninahitrao.
Be exalted, God, above the heavens. Let your glory be over all the earth.
