Salamo 120

1 Izaho niampoheke, le nikanjy Iehovà, vaho tinoi’e.

A Song of Degrees. In mine affliction I cried to the Lord, and he listened to me.

2 O ry Iehovà, apitsoho an-tsoñin-dremborake ty fiaiko, boak’ ami’ty lela mamañahy.

Deliver my soul, O Lord, from unjust lips, and from a deceitful tongue.

3 Inon-ty homeañ’ azo, ino ka ty hanoeñe ama’o ty lela letra’e tia?

What should be given to you, and what should be added to you, for [your] crafty tongue?

4 ana-pale masiom-panalolahy, naho forohan’ andrabey!

Sharpened weapons of the mighty, with coals of the desert.

5 Hankàñe amako te mañialo e Mèseke añe, naho ty fimoneñako an-kiboho’ i Kedàre ao!

Woe is me, that my sojourning is prolonged; I have tabernacled among the tents of Kedar.

6 Loho hatr’ela’e ty nitraofam-piaiko ami’ty kivoho’ o malaim-pilongoañeo.

My soul has long been a sojourner;

7 Toe mpitea filongoan-draho; fa ie ivolañako, aly avao ty onjone’ iereo.

I was peaceful among them that hated peace; when I spoke to them, they warred against me without a cause.
