Salamo 69
1 Rombaho iraho ry Andrianañahare fa nizilike añ’ovako ao ty rano.
To the Chief Musician. On "The Lilies." David’s. Save me, O God, For waters have entered as far as the life;
2 Milempotse an-ditsake lalek’ ao iraho, tsy ao ty ho liàñe; fa nijolofoñe an-drano lalek’ ao naho mandipotse ahy o alon-driakeo.
I have sunk in deep swamp, Where there is no place to stand, I have come into abysses of waters, Where a flood hath overflowed me;
3 Mahamokotse ahy ty fitañiako, maike ty am-peoko ao; milesa o masokoo amy fisalalako an’Andrianañaharekoy.
I am weary with mine outcry, Parched is my throat, —Mine eyes have become dim, through waiting for my God.
4 Mandikoatse o volon-dohakoo ty malaiñe ahy tsy am-bente’e; maro ty te handrotsak’ ahiko, ie rafelahiko tsy an-dengo’e; havahako hao ty tsy nikamereko?
More than the hairs of my head, Are they who hate me without cause, —Firmer than my bones, Are they who are my foes for false cause, —What I had not plundered, then, had I to restore.
5 O Andrianañahare, arofoana’o ty hadagolako, vaho tsy mietak’ ama’o o tahikoo.
O God, thou, hast known my folly, And, my wrong-doings, from thee, have not been hid.
6 Tsy izaho abey ty hisalara’ o misalala Azoo, ry Iehovà, Talè’ i Màroy; ee te tsy izaho ty himeñara’ o mipay Azoo, ry Andrianañahare’ Israeleo.
Let them not be ashamed, through me, Who have waited for thee, O My Lord, Yahweh of hosts, —Let them not be confounded, through me, Who are seeking thee, O God of Israel!
7 Amy te Ihe ro nahatantezako rabioñe; manaroñe ty tareheko ty hasalarañe.
Because, for thy sake, have I borne reproach, Confusion hath covered my face;
8 Fa ambahiny aman-drolongoko iraho naho alik’ amo anan-drenekoo.
One estranged, have I become, to my own brethren, Yea, an alien, to the sons of my own mother;
9 Amy te namotsek’ ahiko ty fahimbañako amy anjomba’oy; le nidoñe amako ty inje’ o mañinje Azoo.
Because, zeal for thy house, hath eaten me up, And, the reproaches of them who have reproached thee, have fallen upon me.
10 Izaho nitañy añ’ovako ao naho nililitse, ninjare tiñe amako.
When I have humbled my soul with fasting, Then hath it turned to my reproach;
11 Ie nanoeko lamba-gony ty sikiko, le nirabioñeñe.
When I have made my clothing of sackcloth, Then have I served them for a by-word;
12 Mivolambolañe ahy o miambesatse an-dalambeio; vaho ibekoa’ o jikeo.
They who sit in the gate talk against me, —And [against me are] the songs of them who imbibe strong drink.
13 Fa naho izaho, Ihe ty ihalaliako, ry Iehovà, ami’ty andro mete, ry Andrianañahare ami’ty habeim-piferenaiña’o, toiño raho ami’ty hatòm-pandrombaha’o.
But, as for me, my prayer shall be unto thee, O Yahweh, in a time of acceptance, O God, in the abounding of thy lovingkindness, answer me with thy saving faithfulness.
14 Ihahao amo litsakeo, le ko apo’o hijoroboñe, avotsoro amo malaiñe ahio, vaho amo rano lalekeo.
Rescue me out of the mire, lest I sink, Let me be rescued, From my haters, and, From abysses of waters:
15 Ee t’ie tsy hopoe’ o fisorotombahañeo, ndra hagodra’ i tsikeokeokey; ndra hitsiteha’ ty vava’ i koboñey.
Let not a flood of waters overflow me, And let not the depth swallow me up, Neither let the well close, over me, her mouth.
16 Toiño iraho ry Iehovà, ami’ty hasoan-kafatraram-pikokoa’o; mitoliha amako ami’ty harà’elahim-piferenaiña’o.
Answer me, O Yahweh, for good is thy lovingkindness, According to the abounding of thy compassions, turn thou towards me:
17 Ko aetak’ ami’ty mpitoro’o ty lahara’o, fa ampoheke, masikà te manoiñe.
Then do not hide thy face from thy servant, Because I am in distress, haste thou—answer me!
18 Harineo ty fiaiko, vaho jebaño; vilio amo rafelahikoo.
Oh draw near unto my soul—redeem it, Because of mine enemies, ransom me.
19 Arofoana’o ty tìñeko, ty hameñarako, naho ty hasalarako; añatrefa’o eo ze hene rafelahiko.
Thou, knowest my reproach, and my shame, and my confusion, Before thee, are all mine adversaries.
20 Fa nahakoretse ty troko o rabioñeo, lifon-kasiloke iraho; nipay tretre, fa tsy nitendreke; naho mpañohò, fa tsy nahatrea.
Reproach hath broken my heart, and I am weak, —Though I waited for one to pity me, yet there was none, And for comforters, yet I found not any.
21 Hete! finaha’ iareo voreke raho vaho finantso’ iareo vinegra amy haran-dranoakoy.
But they put in my food—poison! And, for my thirst, they gave for my drink—vinegar!
22 Ho fàndrike ty fandambañañe añ’atrefa’ iareo; ie mierañerañe te mikoropoke.
Let their table, before them, become a snare, And unto their friends, a lure;
23 Haieñe o fihaino’ iareoo, tsy hahaisake, vaho ampiozoñozoño nainai’e o toha’eo.
Let their eyes become too dim to see, And, their loins, continually cause thou to shake;
24 Adobaño am’ iereo ty haviñera’o, le ampitsepaho ami’ty fifombo’o miforoforo.
Pour out over them thine indignation, And let, the glow of thine anger, overtake them:
25 Hangoakoake ty tobe’ iareo; tsy himoneña’ ondaty o kiboho’eo.
Let their encampment become desolate, In their tents, be there none to dwell:
26 Amy te sarerahe’e i linafa’oy, vaho nindrae’ iereo ty fanaintaiña’ o vinonotrobo’oo.
For, whom, thou thyself, hadst smitten, they pursued, And, unto the pain of thy wounded ones, they must needs add.
27 Tompeo tahiñe ty hakeo’ iareo, le ko apo’o hifoak’ an-kavantaña’o ao.
Lay punishment on their iniquity, And let them not enter into thy righteousness;
28 Faoho amy boken-kaveloñey iereo, tsy hitrao-pisokitse amo vañoñeo.
Let them be blotted out of the book of life, And, with the righteous, let them not be enrolled.
29 Misotry naho marare iraho; ampañonjono ahy añ’abo ey ty fandrombaha’o, ry Andrianañahare.
I, then, am humbled and in pain, Thy salvation, O God, may it set me on high.
30 Ho bangoeko an-tsabo ty tahinan’ Andrianañahare, naho honjoneko am-pañandriañañe.
I will praise the Name of God with a song, And will magnify him with thanksgiving;
31 Ie ho no’ Iehovà mandikoatse ty vosy valo-ay reke-tsifa naho hotro.
So shall it be more pleasing to Yahweh than a bullock of the herd, Showing horn [and] divided hoof.
32 Ho oni’ o mpirèkeo le ho ehake; ry mpipay an’ Andrianañahare, misotrafa añ’arofo.
The humbled have seen—they rejoice! Ye seekers of God, let your heart, then, revive;
33 Fa mahajanjiñe o rarakeo t’Iehovà, vaho tsy sirikae’e o an-drohio.
For, a Hearkener to the needy, is Yahweh, And, his prisoners, hath he not despised.
34 Misaboa Aze ry likerañeo naho ty tane toy, ry riakeo naho ze hene misorok’ ao.
Let the heavens and the earth, praise him, The seas, and everything that creepeth therein.
35 Fa ho rombahen’Añahare ty Tsiône, naho hamboare’e o rova’ Iehodào vaho himoneñe ao iereo ho hanañañe.
For, God, will save Zion, And build the cities of Judah, So shall men dwell there, and possess it:
36 Ho lovae’ ty tiri’ o mpitoro’eo, himoneña’ o mikoko i tahina’eio.
Yea, the seed of his servants, shall inherit it, And, the lovers of his Name, shall settle down therein.
