Salamo 35

1 Ry Iehovà, atretréo o miatreatre ahio, mialia amo mifandrapak’ amakoo.

[A Psalm] of David. Strive, O Jehovah, with them that strive with me; fight against them that fight against me:

2 Andrambeso fikalan-defoñe naho fikala-meso, le miongaha hañolotse ahy.

Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for my help;

3 Apontsoaño ty lefo’o naho i fekon’ aliy; hatreatrè’o o mañoridañ’ahikoo saontsio ami’ty fiaiko ty hoe: Izaho ro fandrombahañe azo.

And draw out the spear, and stop [the way] against my pursuers: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.

4 Salatse naho po-asiñe o mipay ty fiaikoo; ampiambohò vaho ampimeñaro o mikilily hijoy ahikoo.

Let them be put to shame and confounded that seek after my life; let them be turned backward and brought to confusion that devise my hurt:

5 Ano ho kafo’e aolon-tioke eo, le hatao’ i anjeli’ Iehovày soike.

Let them be as chaff before the wind, and let the angel of Jehovah drive [them] away;

6 Ano haieñe naho halamañe ty fombà’ iareo, horidañe’ i anjeli’ Iehovày.

Let their way be dark and slippery, and let the angel of Jehovah pursue them.

7 Tsy aman-taly ty nañetaha’iareo harato, tsy vente’e ty nihalien-koboñe ty fiaiko,

For without cause have they hidden for me their net [in] a pit; without cause they have digged [it] for my soul.

8 Hivovò ama’e abey ty firotsahañe, le ho tsepahe’ i harato naeta’ey; vaho amy firotsahañey ty hivarinjonjoha’e.

Let destruction come upon him unawares, and let his net which he hath hidden catch himself: for destruction let him fall therein.

9 Hirebek’ am’ Iehovà ty fiaiko, hirenge amy fandrombaha’ey.

And my soul shall be joyful in Jehovah; it shall rejoice in his salvation.

10 Hanao ty hoe iaby o taolakoo: Ry Iehovà ia ty hambañ’ Ama’o? Mpandrombake o rarakeo amy maozatse te ama’ey; Eka, ty poie’e naho ty mpisotry amy mpamaok’ azey.

All my bones shall say, Jehovah, who is like unto thee, who deliverest the afflicted from one stronger than he, yea, the afflicted and the needy from him that spoileth him!

11 Mitroatse o mpitalily tsivokatseo, mañody ahy an-draha amoeako.

Unrighteous witnesses rise up; they lay to my charge things which I know not.

12 Valè’ iereo raty ty soa; mampioremeñe ty fiaiko.

They reward me evil for good, [to] the bereavement of my soul.

13 Aa naho izaho, nisaron-gony te natindry iereo, nirè-batañ’aman-dilitse, fe nimpoly an-troko i halalikoy.

But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth; I chastened my soul with fasting, and my prayer returned into mine own bosom:

14 Nandenako hoe t’ie nirañeko ndra nirahalahiko; nidròdreke an-kontoke manahake te nandala rene.

I behaved myself as though [he had been] a friend, a brother to me; I bowed down in sadness, as one that mourneth [for] a mother.

15 Fe nirebeke iereo t’ie nikoletra, nifañosoñe, nifanontoñe hiatreatre ahy o mpamofoke alik’ amakoo, nandrimitse ahy avao tsy nitroatse;

But at my halting they rejoiced, and gathered together: the slanderers gathered themselves together against me, and I knew [it] not; they did tear [me], and ceased not:

16 hoe mpiteratera tsi-aman-Kake an-tsabadidake, ty ikodrita’ iareo nife;

With profane jesters for bread, they have gnashed their teeth against me.

17 O Talè, pak’ ombia te hisamba avao? Avotsoro ami’ty fandrotsaha’ iareo ty troko; amo lionao ty fiaiko.

Lord, how long wilt thou look on? Rescue my soul from their destructions, my only one from the young lions.

18 Andriañeko am-pivori-bey ao; mijejo azo am-balobohòk’ ao.

I will give thee thanks in the great congregation; I will praise thee among much people.

19 Lonike tsy hirebeha’ o rafelahiko tsy amam-poto’eo; tsy hipie maso amako o malaiñe ahy tsy aman-tali’eo.

Let not them that are wrongfully mine enemies rejoice over me; let them not wink with the eye that hate me without cause.

20 Tsy mivolam-pilongoañe iereo, te mone mikilily volam-pitake amo mianjiñe an-tane atoio.

For they speak not peace; and they devise deceitful words against the quiet in the land.

21 Eka ivañavaña’ iereo vava manao ty hoe: Hiy! Hiy! fa nitrea’ o maso’aio.

And they opened their mouth wide against me; they said, Aha! aha! our eye hath seen [it].

22 Nivazoho’o ry Iehovà, ko mianjiñe; ry Talè, ko mitòtse amako

Thou hast seen [it], Jehovah: keep not silence; O Lord, be not far from me.

23 Mitsekafa, mivañona hañomea’o to! Imbao i ahikoy ry Andrianañahareko naho Talèko.

Stir up thyself, and awake for my right, for my cause, my God and Lord!

24 Izakao ry Iehovà Andrianañahareko ty amy havantaña’oy; le ko apo’o hirebeha’ iereo.

Judge me, Jehovah my God, according to thy righteousness, and let them not rejoice over me.

25 Ko ado’o hanoe’e ty hoe an-troke: Hiry! ty fañiria’ay! ndra ty hoe: Fa nabea’ay.

Let them not say in their heart, Aha! so would we have it. Let them not say, We have swallowed him up.

26 Atraofo salareñe naho meñareñe o mitohàk’ amy haemberakoio; ampisikinen-kameñarañe naho inje o mirengèvok’ amakoo.

Let them be ashamed and brought to confusion together that rejoice at mine adversity; let them be clothed with shame and dishonour that magnify themselves against me.

27 Hipoñak’ an-drebeke naho handia-taroba o mifale ami’ty halio tahikoo; hitolom-panao ty hoe: Onjono t’Iehovà, ry mpifale amy fanintsiña’ i mpitoro’eiy.

Let them exult and rejoice that delight in my righteousness; and let them say continually, Jehovah be magnified, who delighteth in the prosperity of his servant.

28 Hitaroñe ty havantaña’o ty lelako, ty enge’o lomoñandro.

And my tongue shall talk of thy righteousness, [and] of thy praise, all the day.
