Salamo 70

1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Nataon’ i Davida. Ho fampahatsiarovana. Andriamanitra ô, faingàna hanafaka ahy; Jehovah ô, faingàna hamonjy ahy.

For the music director. A psalm of David. For a memorial. God, save me! Hurry, Lord, help me!

2 Aoka ho menatra sy hangaihay izay mitady ny aiko; aoka hiamboho sy ho afa-baraka izay faly amin’ ny manjo ahy;

Please defeat and humiliate the people who are trying to kill me; turn back in disgrace those who want to hurt me.

3 Aoka hiamboho noho ny fahamenarany izay manao hoe: Hià! sakoa izay!

May they be shocked at their defeat, those who taunted me.

4 Aoka hifaly sy ho ravoravo aminao izay rehetra mitady Anao; ary aoka izay tia ny famonjenao hanao mandrakariva hoe: hankalazaina anie Andriamanitra.

But may everyone who comes to you be happy and glad; may those who love your salvation always say, “God is great!”

5 Fa izaho dia ory sy malahelo; faingàna hankatỳ amiko, Andriamanitra ô; Mpamonjy sy Mpanafaka ahy Hianao; aza ela, Jehovah ô.

As for me, I am poor and needy. Hurry, God, help me! Save me! Lord, don't wait!
