Salamo 54

1 Rombaho iraho ry Andrianañahare ty amy tahina’oy, vaho meo-to amo haozara’oo.

To the chief music-maker; on Neginoth. Maschil. Of David. When the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Is not David keeping himself secret among us? Let your name be my salvation, O God; let my cause be judged by your strength.

2 Ry Andrianañahare, janjiño ty halaliko, toloro ravembia o entam-bavakoo.

Let my prayer come before you, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.

3 Miongake hiatreatre ahy ty ambahiny, paia’ o mitrotrofiakeo ty fiaiko, tsy nampiaoloe’ iareo t’i Andrianañahare. Selà

For men who are going after me have come out against me, violent men are purposing to take my soul; they have not put God before their eyes. (Selah)

4 Inao! Mpañimb’ahy t’i Andrianañahare, Fiatoam-piaiko t’i Talè.

See, God is my helper: the Lord is the great supporter of my soul.

5 Hafote’e amo mivoñoñe ahiko ty haratia’ iareo; Rotsaho iereo ami’ty figahiña’o.

Let the evil works of my haters come back on them again; let them be cut off by your good faith.

6 Mañenga ama’o an-tsatrin-tro iraho, andriañeko i tahina’oy ry Iehovà, amy te ie ty soa;

Freely will I make my offerings to you; I will give praise to your name, O Lord, for it is good.

7 Fa nafaha’e amako ze hene haemberañe, vaho nisambae’ o masokoo o rafelahikoo.

Because it has been my saviour from all my trouble; and my eyes have seen the punishment of my haters.
