Salamo 16
1 Tambozoro iraho, ry Andrianañahare, toe ama’o ty fitsolohako.
A Poem by David. Preserve me, God, for I take refuge in you.
2 Ty hoe ty tinaroko am’ Iehovà: Ihe ro Talèko, izaho tsy aman-kasoa naho tsy ama’o.
My soul, you have said to the LORD, “You are my Lord. Apart from you I have no good thing.”
3 O noro’e an-tane atoio: ie ro talango’e, toe mampinembanembañe ahiko.
As for the saints who are in the earth, they are the excellent ones in whom is all my delight.
4 Hampitomboeñe ty hasotria’ ze mihitrike mb’an-tsamposampo’e añe; tsy hailiko ty engan-dranon-dio’iareo, le tsy ho rambesen-tsoñiko o añara’ iareoo.
Their sorrows shall be multiplied who give gifts to another god. Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take their names on my lips.
5 Iehovà ro anjara-lovako naho ty fitoviko. Tohañe’o ty navike ho ahiko.
The LORD assigned my portion and my cup. You made my lot secure.
6 An-toetse fanjaka ty nipoha’ o taly ho ahikoo; Eka, soa i lovakoy.
The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places. Yes, I have a good inheritance.
7 Andriañeko t’Iehovà mpamere ahiko, ie haleñe, anare’ ty troko.
I will bless the LORD, who has given me counsel. Yes, my heart instructs me in the night seasons.
8 Najadoko aoloko nainai’e t’Iehovà. Ie ty an-tañako havana eo, tsy higavingaviñe.
I have set the LORD always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9 Aa le tsy mahay avao ty troko, vaho mirebeke ty havokarako; mierañerañe ka ty sandriko,
Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoices. My body shall also dwell in safety.
10 amy te tsy hapo’o an-tsikeokeok’ ao ty fiaiko, vaho tsy hado’o hahaoni-pihomahañe i Masi’oy. (Sheol h7585)
For you will not leave my soul in Sheol, neither will you allow your holy one to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
11 Ampaharofoana’o ahiko ty lalan-kaveloñe; lifotse hafaleañe ty añatrefa’o; haravoravoañe nainai’e ro am-pitàn-kavana’o.
You will show me the path of life. In your presence is fullness of joy. In your right hand there are pleasures forever more.
