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 leader of the music. To the tune of “Do not destroy.” A psalm of David, when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him.” Deliver me from my enemies, O my God! Defend me from them that rise up against me!
2 Afaho amin’ ny mpanao ratsy aho, ary vonjeo amin’ ny mpandatsa-drà.
Deliver me from the doers of iniquity, And save me from men of blood!
3 Fa, indro, manotrika hahazo ny aiko izy; miangona hanohitra ahy ny mahery, nefa tsy fahadisoako ary tsy fahotako, Jehovah ô.
For, lo! they lie in wait for my life; The mighty are gathered against me, Without any offence or fault of mine, O LORD!
4 Tsy heloko no ihazakazahany sy iomanany, koa mifohaza hitsena ahy, ka jereo.
Without any offence of mine, they run and prepare themselves; Awake to help me, and behold!
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)
Do thou, O Jehovah, God of hosts, God of Israel, Awake to punish all the nations! Show no mercy to any wicked transgressors! (Pause)
6 Miverina nony hariva ireny ka mierona tahaka ny alika, sady mandehandeha eran’ ny tanàna.
Let them return at evening, Let them howl like dogs, And go round about the city!
7 Indro, mirezadrezatra amin’ ny vavany izy; sabatra no eo amin’ ny molony, fa iza, hono, no handre?
Behold! with their mouths they belch out malice; Swords are upon their lips; “For who,” say they, “will hear?”
8 Kanjo Hianao, Jehovah ô, hihomehy azy; Hianao haneso ny firenena rehetra.
Yet thou, O LORD! wilt laugh at them; Thou wilt hold all the nations in derision!
9 Koa noho ny herin’ ireny dia hiandry Anao aho; fa Andriamanitra no fiarovana avo ho ahy.
O my Strength! to thee will I look! For God is my defence;
10 Andriamanitra, Izay mamindra fo amiko, no hialoha ahy; hataon’ Andriamanitra faly mijery ny amin’ ny fahavaloko aho.
My God will come to meet me with his mercy; God will cause me to look with joy upon my enemies.
11 Aza mahafaty azy Hianao, fandrao hanadino izany ny fireneko. Ampirenireneo amin’ ny herinao izy, ka aripaho, ry Tompo ô, Ampinganay.
Slay them not, lest my people forget; Scatter them by thy power, and cast them down, O Lord, 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.
The word of their lips is the sin of their mouth; Let them be overtaken in their pride, For the curses and the falsehood 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 thy wrath; consume them that they be no more, That they may know that God ruleth in Jacob, Even to the ends of the earth! (Pause)
14 Ary miverina nony hariva ireny ka mierona tahaka ny alika, sady mandehandeha eran’ ny tanàna.
Let them return at evening, Let them howl like dogs, And go round about the city!
15 Miriorio mitady hanina izy; raha tsy voky izy, dia any ihany mandritra ny alina.
Let them wander about for food, When they have passed the night unsatisfied!
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 thy power; Yea, in the morning will I sing aloud of thy mercy; For thou hast been my defence, My 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 thee, O my Strength! will I sing! For God is my defence; a God of mercy to me.
