< Salamo 16 >
1 Tambozoro iraho, ry Andrianañahare, toe ama’o ty fitsolohako.
A Secret Treasure of David. Preserve me, O God, for I did trust in Thee.
2 Ty hoe ty tinaroko am’ Iehovà: Ihe ro Talèko, izaho tsy aman-kasoa naho tsy ama’o.
Thou hast said to Jehovah, 'My Lord Thou [art];' My good [is] not for thine own sake;
3 O noro’e an-tane atoio: ie ro talango’e, toe mampinembanembañe ahiko.
For the holy ones who [are] in the land, And the honourable, all my delight [is] in them.
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.
Multiplied are their griefs, [Who] have hastened backward; I pour not out their libations of blood, Nor do I take up their names on my lips.
5 Iehovà ro anjara-lovako naho ty fitoviko. Tohañe’o ty navike ho ahiko.
Jehovah [is] the portion of my share, and of my cup, Thou — Thou dost uphold my lot.
6 An-toetse fanjaka ty nipoha’ o taly ho ahikoo; Eka, soa i lovakoy.
Lines have fallen to me in pleasant places, Yea, a beauteous inheritance [is] for me.
7 Andriañeko t’Iehovà mpamere ahiko, ie haleñe, anare’ ty troko.
I bless Jehovah who hath counselled me; Also [in] the nights my reins instruct me.
8 Najadoko aoloko nainai’e t’Iehovà. Ie ty an-tañako havana eo, tsy higavingaviñe.
I did place Jehovah before me continually, Because — at my right hand I am not moved.
9 Aa le tsy mahay avao ty troko, vaho mirebeke ty havokarako; mierañerañe ka ty sandriko,
Therefore hath my heart been glad, And my honour doth rejoice, Also my flesh dwelleth confidently:
10 amy te tsy hapo’o an-tsikeokeok’ ao ty fiaiko, vaho tsy hado’o hahaoni-pihomahañe i Masi’oy. (Sheol )
For Thou dost not leave my soul to Sheol, Nor givest thy saintly one to see corruption. (Sheol )
11 Ampaharofoana’o ahiko ty lalan-kaveloñe; lifotse hafaleañe ty añatrefa’o; haravoravoañe nainai’e ro am-pitàn-kavana’o.
Thou causest me to know the path of life; Fulness of joys [is] with Thy presence, Pleasant things by Thy right hand for ever!
