Salamo 51
1 Ry Andrianañahare, matariha amy hafatraram-pikokoa’o, faopaoho o fiolàkoo amo hara’elahim-piferenaiña’oo,
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David, when Nathan the prophet came to him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba. Have mercy on me, God, according to your loving kindness. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.
2 Kotriño hitoratsike amo tahikoo, liovo amo fandilarakoo.
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity. Cleanse me from my sin.
3 Apotako o fiolàkoo: vaho miatrek’ ahy nainai’e o hakeokoo.
For I know my transgressions. My sin is constantly 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 you, and you only, I have sinned, and done that which is evil in your sight, so you may be proved right when you speak, and justified when you judge.
5 Toe naterak’ an-kakeo iraho, naho an-tahiñe t’ie niareñen-drene.
Behold, I was born in iniquity. My mother conceived me in sin.
6 Inao, mipay hatò añ’ova ao irehe, aa le ampandrendreho hìhitse mietake iraho.
Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts. You teach me wisdom in the inmost place.
7 Efero an-tseva iraho, hikotritriake; ampandrò ho foty matsatsaoke te amo volovasoo.
Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
8 Ampitsanoño firebehañe naho hafalean-draho; soa te hiankahake o taolañe dinemo’oo.
Let me hear joy and gladness, that the bones which you have broken may rejoice.
9 Aetaho amo tahikoo ty lahara’o, ehe fonga forò o hakeokoo.
Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all of my iniquities.
10 Itseneo fo vao ry Andrianañahare; le vaò añ’ovako ao ty troke migahiñe.
Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a right spirit within me.
11 Ko ahifike tsy ho añatrefa’o eo iraho, le ko apitsok’ amako i Arofo’o Masiñey.
Don’t throw me from your presence, and don’t take your Holy Spirit from me.
12 Ampolio amako ty hafalea’ i fandrombaha’oy, itohano ho aman-troke mahimbañe.
Restore to me the joy of your salvation. Uphold me with a willing spirit.
13 Le hampahafohineko o aman-kakeoo o lala’oo, hampipoliañe o mpanan-tahiñeo.
Then I will teach transgressors your ways. Sinners will be converted to you.
14 Hahao ami’ty lio-màlin-draho, ry Andrianañahare, Andrianañaharem- pandrombahañ’ ahikoy; le ho saboen-delako o havantaña’oo.
Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, the God of my salvation. My tongue will sing aloud of your righteousness.
15 O Talè, sokafo o soñikoo hitaroñam-bavako ty fandrengeañ’ Azo
Lord, open my lips. My mouth will declare your praise.
16 Toe tsy mahafale Azo o soroñeo, fa ho nibanabanaeko; tsy no’o o soroñe oroañeo.
For you don’t delight in sacrifice, or else I would give it. You have 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. O God, you will not despise a broken and contrite heart.
18 Hasoao i Tsiône ami’ty fatariha’o; atroaro o kijoli’ Ierosalaimeo.
Do well in your good pleasure to Zion. Build 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 you will delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, in burnt offerings and in whole burnt offerings. Then they will offer bulls on your altar.
