Salamo 7
1 Sigaiona nataon’ i Davida, izay nohirainy ho an’ i Jehovah noho ny tenin’ i Kosy Benjamita. Jehovah Andriamanitro ô, Hianao no ialofako; vonjeo aho amin’ izay rehetra manenjika ahy, ka afaho;
Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD; concerning the words of Cush a Benjamite. O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me:
2 Fandrao ny fanahiko viravirainy tahaka ny fanaon’ ny liona, ary kepokepohiny, ka tsy misy mamonjy.
Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
3 Jehovah Andriamanitro ô, raha nanao izany aho; raha misy heloka eto an-tanako;
O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands;
4 Raha namaly ratsy izay tsara fihavanana tamiko aho, novonjeko aza izay nampahory ahy tsy ahoan-tsy ahoana
If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea, I have delivered him that without cause was mine adversary: )
5 Dia aoka ny fahavalo hanenjika ny fanahiko ka hahatratra azy; eny, aoka izy hanitsaka ny aiko amin’ ny tany, ary hampandry ny voninahitro amin’ ny vovoka. (Sela)
Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it; yea, let him tread my life down to the earth, and lay my glory in the dust. (Selah)
6 Jehovah ô, mitsangàna amin’ ny fahatezeranao; misandrata hisakana ny fisafoaky ny mpampahory ahy; ary mifohaza hanampy ahy, fa didy marina no navoakanao;
Arise, O LORD, in thine anger, lift up thyself against the rage of mine adversaries: and awake for me; thou hast commanded judgment.
7 Aoka ny firenena maro hivory manodidina Anao; ary miverena ho any amin’ ny avo eo amboniny Hianao,
And let the congregation of the peoples compass thee about: and over them return thou on high.
8 Jehovah hitsara ny firenena; Jehovah ô, tsarao aho araka ny fahamarinako sy ny tsi-fananako tsiny.
The LORD ministereth judgment to the peoples: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and to mine integrity that is in me.
9 Aoka ho tapaka ny ratsy ataon’ ny ratsy fanahy, fa ampitoero kosa ny marina; fa Andriamanitra marina no mamantatra ny fo sy ny voa.
Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish thou the righteous: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
10 Ny ampingako dia ao amin’ Andriamanitra, Mpamonjy ny mahitsy fo.
My shield is with God, which saveth the upright in heart.
11 Mpitsara marina Andriamanitra, eny Andriamanitra Izay tezitra isan’ andro.
God is a righteous judge, yea, a God that hath indignation every day.
12 Raha tsy ibebahana Izy, dia hanasa ny sabany; efa manenjana ny tsipìkany Izy ka manamboatra azy,
If a man turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.
13 Ary ireo dia kendreny amin’ ny fiadiana mahafaty; ny zana-tsipìkany ataony mirehitra.
He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he maketh his arrows fiery [shafts].
14 Indro, efa marary hiteraka zava-poana ireo; eny, torontoronina fampahoriana izy ary mitera-doza;
Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
15 Mihady lavaka izy ka manalalaka izany, dia latsaka ao anatin’ ny longoa nataony ihany izy;
He hath made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.
16 Mitsingerina ho eo an-dohany ihany ny fampahoriany; ary eo an-tampon-dohany ihany no ianjeran’ ny loza nataony.
His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate.
17 Hidera an’ i Jehovah araka ny fahamarinany aho, ary hankalaza ny anaran’ i Jehovah Avo Indrindra.
I will give thanks unto the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
