Salamo 59
1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Al-tasheth. Miktama nataon’ i Davida, fony Saoly naniraka, ka nisy niambina ny trano hamonoana azy. Afaho amin’ ny fahavaloko aho, Andriamanitro ô; asondroty eo amin’ ny avo aho tsy ho azon’ izay miodina amiko.
[For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Do Not Destroy." A poem by David, when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him.] Deliver me from my enemies, my God. Set me on high from those who rise up against me.
2 Afaho amin’ ny mpanao ratsy aho, ary vonjeo amin’ ny mpandatsa-drà.
Deliver me from evildoers. Save me from the bloodthirsty men.
3 Fa, indro, manotrika hahazo ny aiko izy; miangona hanohitra ahy ny mahery, nefa tsy fahadisoako ary tsy fahotako, Jehovah ô.
For, look, they lie in wait for my soul. The mighty gather themselves together against me, not for my disobedience, nor for my sin, Jehovah.
4 Tsy heloko no ihazakazahany sy iomanany, koa mifohaza hitsena ahy, ka jereo.
I have done no wrong, yet they are ready to attack me. Rise up, look, and help me.
5 Ary Hianao, Jehovah ô, Andriamanitry ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, mifohaza hitsara ny firenen-tsamy hafa; aza mamindra fo amin’ izay mpivadika ratsy fanahy. (Sela)
You, Jehovah, the God of hosts, the God of Israel, rouse yourself to punish the nations. Show no mercy to the wicked traitors. (Selah)
6 Miverina nony hariva ireny ka mierona tahaka ny alika, sady mandehandeha eran’ ny tanàna.
They return at evening, howling like dogs, and prowl around the city.
7 Indro, mirezadrezatra amin’ ny vavany izy; sabatra no eo amin’ ny molony, fa iza, hono, no handre?
Look, they spew with their mouth. Swords are in their lips, "For," they say, "who hears us?"
8 Kanjo Hianao, Jehovah ô, hihomehy azy; Hianao haneso ny firenena rehetra.
But you, Jehovah, laugh at them. You scoff at all the nations.
9 Koa noho ny herin’ ireny dia hiandry Anao aho; fa Andriamanitra no fiarovana avo ho ahy.
Oh, my Strength, I watch for you, for God is my high tower.
10 Andriamanitra, Izay mamindra fo amiko, no hialoha ahy; hataon’ Andriamanitra faly mijery ny amin’ ny fahavaloko aho.
My God of mercy will come to meet me. God will let me look at my enemies in triumph.
11 Aza mahafaty azy Hianao, fandrao hanadino izany ny fireneko. Ampirenireneo amin’ ny herinao izy, ka aripaho, ry Tompo ô, Ampinganay.
Do not kill them, or my people may forget. Scatter them by your power, and bring them down, Jehovah our shield.
12 Ny fahotan’ ny vavany dia ny tenin’ ny molony; aoka hosamborina amin’ ny fireharehany izy, eny, noho ny ozona sy ny lainga ataony.
For the sin of their mouth, and the words of their lips, let them be caught in their pride, for the curses and lies which they utter.
13 Aringano an-katezerana izy, aringano mba tsy ho ao intsony; ary aoka ho fantany fa Andriamanitra no manapaka eo amin’ ny Jakoba ka hatramin’ ny faran’ ny tany. (Sela)
Consume them in wrath. Consume them, and they will be no more. Let them know that God rules in Jacob, to the farthest parts of the earth. (Selah)
14 Ary miverina nony hariva ireny ka mierona tahaka ny alika, sady mandehandeha eran’ ny tanàna.
At evening let them return. Let them howl like a dog, and go around the city.
15 Miriorio mitady hanina izy; raha tsy voky izy, dia any ihany mandritra ny alina.
They shall wander up and down for food, and wait all night if they aren't satisfied.
16 Fa izaho kosa dia hihira ny herinao, ary hihoby ny famindram-ponao nony maraina, satria fiarovana avo ho ahy Hianao, ary fandosirako amin’ ny andro fahoriana.
But I will sing of your strength. Yes, I will sing aloud of your loving kindness in the morning. For you have been my high tower, a refuge in the day of my distress.
17 Ry Heriko ô, Hianao no hankalazaiko; fa Andriamanitra no fiarovana avo ho ahy, dia Andriamanitra Izay mamindra fo amiko.
To you, my strength, I will sing praises. For God is my high tower, the God of my mercy.
