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 leader of the music. A psalm of David, for remembrance.” Make haste, O God! to deliver me, O LORD! come speedily to mine aid!

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

May they all be confounded, and covered with shame, Who seek to take my life! May they be driven back with disgrace Who desire to do me injury!

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

May they be turned back with shame Who cry out to me, “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.

But let all who seek thee be glad and rejoice in thee! Let them that love thy protection ever say, “May God be praised!”

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! hasten to mine aid! Thou art my help and my deliverer, O LORD! make no delay!
