Salamo 4
1 Ry Andrianañaharen-kavañonako toiño iraho te mikanjy Azo fa Ihe ty nañivake ho ahy te nalovilovy; isoho vaho janjiño o halalikoo.
To the chief music-maker on corded instruments. A Psalm. Of David. Give answer to my cry, O God of my righteousness; make me free from my troubles; have mercy on me, and give ear to my prayer.
2 O ry ana’ondatio, Sikala ‘mbia ro hafote’ areo ho inje ty asiko? ty hikoko ty tsy vente’e, hitsoeke ty famañahiañe? Selà
O you sons of men, how long will you go on turning my glory into shame? how long will you give your love to foolish things, going after what is false? (Selah)
3 Fe fohino te navaha’ Iehovà ho ama’e i vañoñey; ho janjiñe’ Iehovà te kanjieko.
See how the Lord has made great his mercy for me; the Lord will give ear to my cry.
4 Minevenevera, le ko mandilatse; mañereñerea añ’arofo an-tihi’o eo, vaho mianjiña. Selà
Let there be fear in your hearts, and do no sin; have bitter feelings on your bed, but make no sound. (Selah)
5 Mañengà soron-kavantañañe, vaho miatoa am’Iehovà.
Give the offerings of righteousness, and put your faith in the Lord.
6 Maro ty mivola: Ia ty hampiboake hasoa amantika? Ry Iehovà, onjono ama’ay ty hazavan-dahara’o.
There are numbers who say, Who will do us any good? the light of his face has gone from us.
7 Ihe nampipoke haehake an-troko ao, mandikoatse te an-tsàm-pamokara’ iareo ampemba naho divay.
Lord, you have put joy in my heart, more than they have when their grain and their wine are increased.
8 Hàndre an-kanintsin-draho le hiroro amy te Ihe avao ry Iehovà ro mampimoneñe ahy am-pitsolohañe.
I will take my rest on my bed in peace, because you only, Lord, keep me safe.
