Salamo 51
1 Ry Andrianañahare, matariha amy hafatraram-pikokoa’o, faopaoho o fiolàkoo amo hara’elahim-piferenaiña’oo,
For the Chief Musician. A psalm of David: when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bath-sheba. Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness; according to the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2 Kotriño hitoratsike amo tahikoo, liovo amo fandilarakoo.
Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3 Apotako o fiolàkoo: vaho miatrek’ ahy nainai’e o hakeokoo.
For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4 Ama’o, le ama’o avao ty nandilarako; naho nanao hatsivokarañe am-pivazohoa’o; soa te ho rendreke to t’ie mitsara, vaho vantañe te mizaka.
Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done that which is evil in thy sight: that thou mayest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
5 Toe naterak’ an-kakeo iraho, naho an-tahiñe t’ie niareñen-drene.
Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6 Inao, mipay hatò añ’ova ao irehe, aa le ampandrendreho hìhitse mietake iraho.
Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
7 Efero an-tseva iraho, hikotritriake; ampandrò ho foty matsatsaoke te amo volovasoo.
Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8 Ampitsanoño firebehañe naho hafalean-draho; soa te hiankahake o taolañe dinemo’oo.
Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
9 Aetaho amo tahikoo ty lahara’o, ehe fonga forò o hakeokoo.
Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
10 Itseneo fo vao ry Andrianañahare; le vaò añ’ovako ao ty troke migahiñe.
Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
11 Ko ahifike tsy ho añatrefa’o eo iraho, le ko apitsok’ amako i Arofo’o Masiñey.
Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
12 Ampolio amako ty hafalea’ i fandrombaha’oy, itohano ho aman-troke mahimbañe.
Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation: and uphold me with a free spirit.
13 Le hampahafohineko o aman-kakeoo o lala’oo, hampipoliañe o mpanan-tahiñeo.
Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.
14 Hahao ami’ty lio-màlin-draho, ry Andrianañahare, Andrianañaharem- pandrombahañ’ ahikoy; le ho saboen-delako o havantaña’oo.
Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation; [and] my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
15 O Talè, sokafo o soñikoo hitaroñam-bavako ty fandrengeañ’ Azo
O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.
16 Toe tsy mahafale Azo o soroñeo, fa ho nibanabanaeko; tsy no’o o soroñe oroañeo.
For thou delightest not in sacrifice; else would I give it: thou hast no pleasure in burnt offering.
17 Ty soron’ Añahare, le troke mihoto; tsy ho sirikae’o ry Andrianañahare, ty arofo rofotse naho mikoretse.
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
18 Hasoao i Tsiône ami’ty fatariha’o; atroaro o kijoli’ Ierosalaimeo.
Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.
19 Izay vaho ho no’o o sorom-bantañeo: o soroñe oroañeo naho soroñ’ añoñeo; le hengaeñe bania ambone’ i kitreli’oy.
Then shalt thou delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, in burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.
