Salamo 70

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

“To the chief musician, by David, to bring to remembrance.” O God, [arise] to deliver me; O Lord, make haste to help me.

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

Let those that seek after my life be made ashamed and put to the blush: let those that desire my unhappiness be turned backward and put to confusion.

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

Let them be turned backward in consequence of their shame, that say, Aha, aha.

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

Let all those that seek thee be glad and rejoice in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, God is great.

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

But I am poor and needy, O God: come hastily unto me; my help and my deliverer art thou: O Lord, do not delay.
