< Salamo 141 >

1 Sabo’ i Davide Ry Iehovà, mikanjy azo iraho, mb’etoa an-taentaeñe; toloro ravembia ty feoko te koiheko.
“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” I cry to thee, O LORD! make haste unto me! Give ear to my voice, when I cry unto thee!
2 Ano rame añatrefa’o eo o halalikoo, hoe soron-kariva ty fizonjo’ o sirakoo.
Let my prayer come before thee as incense, And the lifting-up of my hands, as the evening sacrifice!
3 Ampijadoño mpañambeñe ty vavako, ry Iehovà, ambeno ty lalambein-tsoñiko.
Set a watch, O LORD! before my mouth; Guard the door of my lips!
4 Ko avi’o mb’an-karatiam-beo ty troko, hitoloñako sata-raty rekets’ ondaty mitolon-katsivokarañeo; ko apo’o ho haneko ze raha mafiri’ iareo.
Let not my heart incline to any evil thing; Let me not practise wickedness with the doers of iniquity, And let me not eat of their delicacies!
5 Ee te handraratehak’ahy an-kalèn-tro ty vañoñe, naho hañendak’ ahy, toe solik’ añambone izay, lonike te tsy hifoneñan-dohako; Fa tsy apoko ty halaliko ty amo sata rati’ iareoo.
Let the righteous smite me, —it shall be a kindness; Let him reprove me, and it shall be oil for my head; Let him do it again, and my head shall not refuse it; But now I pray against their wickedness!
6 Ie avokovoko añ’ilan-kereretsak’ ao o mpizaka’iareoo, le ho tsanoñe’ iareo te nañeva o volakoo.
When their judges are hurled over the side of the rock, They shall hear how pleasant are my words.
7 Hambañe ami’ty fitrabahañe naho fitrobohan-tane, ty fampivarakaihañe am-bavan – kibory ao o taola’aio. (Sheol h7585)
So are our bones scattered at the mouth of the underworld, As when one furroweth and ploweth up the land. (Sheol h7585)
8 Fe mitolik’ ama’o o masokoo, ry Iehovà, Talè; fa ama’o ty fipalirako— ko alonga’o ty fiaiko.
But to thee do my eyes look, O Lord Jehovah! In thee is my trust; Let not my life be poured out!
9 Arovo iraho amy fandrike nampibitsoheñe ho ahikoy; naho amo fandri-bo’ o mpanao ratio.
Preserve me from the snares which they have laid for me, And from the nets of evil-doers!
10 Hivariñe an-karato’ iareo avao o lo-tserekeo, te izaho miary eo.
Let the wicked fall together into their own traps, Whilst I make my escape!
