Salamo 62
1 I Andrianañahare avao ty fitamà’ ty fiaiko am-pitsiñañe, boak’ ama’e ty fandrombahañe ahy.
God is the only one who can give me peace in my inner being, and he is the one who saves me [from my enemies].
2 Ie avao ro lamilamiko naho ty fandrombahañe ahy; i haboam-pipalirakoy; tsy hasiotsiotse iraho.
Only he is like an [overhanging] rock [under which I can be safe] [MET]; he will be [like] a shelter, [with the result that] I will never be defeated [MET].
3 Pak’ombia ty ho boroboñafe’ areo t’indaty? Hanjevoa’areo iaby hoe t’ie rindriñe mitondritse, ndra kijoly migavengaveñe.
When will you, [my enemies], stop attacking me [RHQ]? I feel that I am [as useless against you as] a wall that is about to fall over or a broken-down fence [MET].
4 Ty hamotsahañe aze ami’ty haabo’e avao ro fikililia’ iareo: mpitea volam-bande; mitata am-palie, f’ie mamatse añ’ova ao Selà
My enemies plan to remove me from my important position so that people no longer honor me. They delight in telling lies. They bless people by what they say [MTY], but in their inner beings they curse [those people].
5 I Andrianañahare avao ty liñisa’o ampitsiñañe, ty fiaiko toy; boak’ ama’e ty fisalalàko.
God is the only one who gives me peace in my inner being; he is the one whom I confidently expect [to help me].
6 Ie avao ro lamilamiko naho fandrombahañe ahy; ty kijoliko abo; tsy hasiotse iraho.
Only he is [like an overhanging] rock [under which I can be safe] [MET]; he is [like] a shelter, and [as a result] I will never be defeated.
7 I Andrianañahare ty ampipohañe ty fandrombahañe ahy, naho ty engeko; ty lamilamin-kaozarako; fipalirako t’i Andrianañahare.
God is the one who saves me and honors me. He is [like an overhanging] strong rock under which I [can] find shelter [MET].
8 Miatoa ama’e nainai’e, ondatio, adoaño añatrefa’e ty arofo’ areo; fitsolohan-tika t’i Andrianañahare. Selà
[You my] people, always trust in him. Tell him all your troubles, because he is (our refuge/the one who protects us) [MET].
9 Toe hakoahañe avao o ana’ i Dameo, lañitse o ana’ ondatio; ie atraok’ am-pilanjàñe eo, le maivañe te ami’ty kofòke.
People who are considered to be unimportant are [as worthless/unreliable as] a breath of air; people who are considered to be important [also] really (amount to nothing/cannot be trusted [to help us)]. If you put them all on a scale, [it would be as if] they weighed less than a puff of air.
10 Ko iatoa’o ty fikatramoañe, naho ko manao fañirian-kafoake am-pikamerañe. Ndra te mionjoñe o varao ko ampirampian’ arofo.
Do not trust in money gained by extorting it from others; do not try to gain anything by robbing others. If you become very wealthy, do not trust in [IDM] your money.
11 Nitsara indraike t’i Andrianañahare, tsinanoko indroe ty hoe: An’Andrianañahare o haozarañeo,
I have heard God say more than once that he is the one who [really] has power,
12 vaho ama’o, ry Talè, ty fiferenaiñañe, songa tambeze’o mañeva o fitoloña’eo t’i ondaty.
and that he is the one who faithfully loves [us]. He rewards every one [of us] according to the deeds that we do.
