Salamo 61

1 Janjiño ty koiko, ry Andrianañahare; haoño o halalikoo.

For the Chief Musician; on a stringed instrument. [A Psalm] of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.

2 Boak’ añ’olon-tane añe ty ikoihako Azo, naho opo ty troko; iaolò mb’an-­damilamy abo te amako.

From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3 Amy te Ihe ro fipalirako, haboañe fatratse aolon-drafelahiko eo.

For thou hast been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.

4 Hitoboke an-kivoho’o ao nainai’e iraho; hipalirako añ’alo’ o ela’oo. Selà

I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever: I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)

5 Fa jinanji’o o nifantàkoo ry Andrianañahare; tinolo’o ty lova’ o mpañeveñe amy tahina’oio.

For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given [me] the heritage of those that fear thy name.

6 Tompeo andro ty andro’ i mpanjakay, ho tarirats’ an-tariratse o tao’eo.

Thou wilt prolong the king’s life: his years shall be as many generations.

7 Hiambesatse añatrefan’ Añahare eo nainai’e; afantoho hañambeñe aze ty fiferenaiñañe naho ty hatò.

He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare lovingkindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

8 Le ho bangoeko an-tsabo nainai’e ty tahina’o, ie henefeko boak’ andro o nifantàkoo.

So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
