Salamo 63
1 Salamo nataon’ i Davida, fony tany an-efitr’ i Joda izy. Andriamanitra ô, Andriamanitro Hianao; mitady Anao fatratra aho; mangetaheta Anao ny fanahiko, maniry Anao ny nofoko, eto amin’ ny tany maina sy mangentana tsy misy rano;
A Psalme of David. When he was in the wildernesse of Judah. O God, thou art my God, earely will I seeke thee: my soule thirsteth for thee: my flesh longeth greatly after thee in a barren and drye land without water.
2 Toy izany no nijereko Anao tao amin’ ny fitoerana masìna, hahitako ny herinao sy ny voninahitrao.
Thus I beholde thee as in the Sanctuarie, when I beholde thy power and thy glorie.
3 Fa tsara noho ny aina ny famindram-ponao; ny molotro hidera Anao.
For thy louing kindnesse is better then life: therefore my lippes shall prayse thee.
4 Toy izany no hisaorako Anao, raha mbola velona koa aho; amin’ ny anaranao no hanandratako ny tanako.
Thus will I magnifie thee all my life, and lift vp mine hands in thy name.
5 Toy ny voky tsoka sy tavy no hahavokisan’ ny fanahiko; ary amin’ ny molotra falifaly no hideran’ ny vavako Anao.
My soule shalbe satisfied, as with marowe and fatnesse, and my mouth shall praise thee with ioyfull lippes,
6 Raha mahatsiaro Anao eo am-pandriako aho, dia mieritreritra Anao amin’ ny fiambenan’ alina.
When I remember thee on my bedde, and when I thinke vpon thee in the night watches.
7 Fa efa namonjy ahy Hianao, ary ao ambanin’ ny aloky ny elatrao no hihobiako.
Because thou hast bene mine helper, therefore vnder the shadow of thy wings wil I reioyce.
8 Mifikitra amiko ny fanahiko; manohana ahy ny tananao ankavanana.
My soule cleaueth vnto thee: for thy right hand vpholdeth me.
9 Fa ireny dia mitady ny aiko ka mampidi-doza amin’ ny tenany; hiditra any ambanin’ ny tany izy;
Therefore they that seeke my soule to destroy it, they shall goe into the lowest partes of the earth.
10 Hatolotra ho amin’ ny herin’ ny sabatra izy; ho anjaran’ ny amboahaolo izy.
They shall cast him downe with the edge of the sword, and they shall be a portion for foxes.
11 Fa ny mpanjaka hifaly amin’ Andriamanitra; ho ravoravo izay rehetra mianiana aminy; fa hakombona ny vavan’ izay rehetra mandainga.
But the King shall reioyce in God, and all that sweare by him shall reioyce in him: for the mouth of them that speake lyes, shall be stopped.
