Salamo 27
1 Hazavàko naho fandrombahako t’Iehovà, ia ty ihembañako? Fipaliram-piaiko t’Iehovà, ia ty hirevendreveñako?
A Psalm of David. The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
2 Ie niambotrak’ amako o lo-tserekeo hampibotseke o nofokoo; le nitsikapy vaho nikorovoke o malaiñ’ahio naho o rafelahikoo.
When evil-doers came upon me to eat up my flesh, even mine adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell.
3 Ndra te hitobe hiatreatre ahy ty firimboñañe, tsy ho vorombeloñe ty troko; ndra te hitroatse amako ty hotakotake, mbe hitam-patokisañe.
Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war should rise up against me, even then will I be confident.
4 Raha raike ty nihalalieko am’ Iehovà, izay ty ho paiaeko: ty hitobohako añ’anjomba’ Iehovà ao ze hene andro ivelomako, hahatrea ty hasoa-vinta’ Iehovà, vaho hañontàne añ’akiba’e ao.
One thing have I asked of the LORD, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the graciousness of the LORD, and to visit early in His temple.
5 Ampipalira’e an-kijà’e ao t’ie an-tsam-poheke, akafi’e am-poreforetan-Kivoho’e ao; ampitongoa’e andigiligin-damilamy eo.
For He concealeth me in His pavilion in the day of evil; He hideth me in the covert of His tent; He lifteth me up upon a rock.
6 Aa le honjoneñ’ ambone’ o rafelahiko miariseho ahio ty lohako. vaho ho banabanako soroñe an-drebeke mb’an-kivoho’e ao; ho saboako, eka ho rengèko an-tsabo t’Iehovà.
And now shall my head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me; and I will offer in His tabernacle sacrifices with trumpet-sound; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.
7 Janjiño ry Iehovà, naho ikaihako am-peo! Iferenaiño vaho toiño.
Hear, O LORD, when I call with my voice, and be gracious unto me, and answer me.
8 Nitaroñe’o ami’ty foko ty hoe: Paiao ty tareheko; toe ho tsoeheko ty vinta’o, ry Iehovà.
In Thy behalf my heart hath said: 'Seek ye My face'; Thy face, LORD, will I seek.
9 Ko aetak’ amako ty lahara’o; ko apo’o an-kaviñerañe ty mpitoro’o, Ihe mpañolotse ahy; le ko aitoa’o, naho ko farie’o ry Andrianañaharem- pandrombahañe ahiko.
Hide not Thy face from me; put not Thy servant away in anger; Thou hast been my help; cast me not off, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
10 Ndra t’ie nadon-drae naho rene, ho rambese’ Iehovà.
For though my father and my mother have forsaken me, the LORD will take me up.
11 Anaro ahy ty lala’o, ry Iehovà vaho tehafo mb’an-dalañe mira ty amo rafelahikoo.
Teach me Thy way, O LORD; and lead me in an even path, because of them that lie in wait for me.
12 Ko asese’o an-tsatri’ o malaiñ’ ahio; fa atretréo o mpanara vandeo, naho o mikofòke hasiahañeo.
Deliver me not over unto the will of mine adversaries; for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out violence.
13 Hete! atokisako te ho treako an-tanen-kaveloñe ao ty hasoa’ Iehovà—
If I had not believed to look upon the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living! —
14 Itamao t’Iehovà, mihaozara, le mihafatrara arofo; eka, liñiso t’Iehovà.
Wait on the LORD; be strong, and let thy heart take courage; yea, wait thou for the LORD.
