Salamo 71
1 Ihe ry Iehovà, ro itsolohako; ko apo’o ho salareñe,
In thee, O LORD! do I put my trust! Let me never be put to shame!
2 Votsoro ami’ty havantaña’o, naho hahao; atokilaño amako ty ravembia’o vaho rombaho.
In thy goodness deliver and rescue me; Incline thine ear to me, and save me!
3 Ehe t’ie ho vato fimoneñako, ho fimpoliako; fa nafanto’o ty handrombahañe ahiko; Ihe ro lamilamiko naho rova fiàroko.
Be thou the rock of my abode, where I may continually resort! Thou hast granted me deliverance; For thou art my rock and my fortress!
4 Avotsoro an-tañan-do-tsereke iraho, ry Andrianañahareko ami’ty fivontitira’ ty mpandilatse naho i mpampisoañey.
Save me, O my God! from the hand of the wicked, -From the hand of the unjust and cruel!
5 Fa Ihe ro fitamàko, ry Iehovà Talè; ty natokisako boak’ami’te nahajalahy.
For thou art my hope, O Lord Jehovah! Thou hast been my trust from my youth!
6 Ihe ty nirampiako boak’an-kovin-dreneko ao; Ihe ty nañakatse ahy an-tron-dreneko; Rengeko nainai’e irehe.
Upon thee have I leaned from my birth; From my earliest breath thou hast been my support; My song hath been continually of thee!
7 Filatsà’ i màroy iraho, f’Ihe ro fipalirako maozatse.
I am a wonder to many, But thou art my strong refuge.
8 Pea’ ty fibangoañe naho ty fiasiañ’Azo lomoñandro ty vavako,
Let my mouth be filled with thy praise; Yea, all the day long, with thy glory.
9 Ko aitoa’o iraho naho fa bey; ko mamorintseñe ahy naho milesa ty haozarako.
Cast me not off in mine old age; Forsake me not, When my strength faileth!
10 Fa nikinia’ o rafelahikoo; vaho mitrao-pikilily ahy o mivoñoñe ty fiaikoo,
For my enemies speak against me, And they who lay wait for my life consult together:
11 ami’ty hoe: naforintsen’ Añahare, horidaño arè vaho tsepaho amy t’ie po-pañolotse.
“God,” say they, “hath forsaken him; Pursue and seize him; for he hath none to deliver him!”
12 Ry Andrianañahare, ko ihànkaña’o, ry Andrianañahareko, malisà hañolots’ ahy.
O God! be not far from me! Come speedily to mine aid, O my God!
13 Ho salareñe naho mongoreñe o manisý ty fiaikoo; le hoboñañ’ inje naho hameñarañe o mipay hijoy ahikoo.
Let them perish with shame who are my enemies; Let them be covered with contempt and dishonor who seek my hurt!
14 Fa naho izaho, hitama nainai’e vaho honjoneko avao ty fandrengeako Azo.
But I will hope continually; I shall yet praise thee more and more.
15 Ho talilie’ ty vavako o havantaña’oo, naho o fandrombaha’o lomoñandroo, fe nofiko ty hamaro’e.
My mouth shall speak of thy goodness, —Of thy sure protection all the day long; For thy mercies are more than I can number.
16 Hindeseko o tolon-draha’o ra’elahio, ry Iehovà Talè; ho taroñeko ty havantaña’o, ty Azo avao.
I will celebrate thy mighty deeds, O Lord Jehovah! I will make mention of thy goodness, of thine only!
17 Ry Andrianañahare, fa nanare’o ahy boak’ ami’ty nahajalahy ahy; pake henaneo, taroñeko avao o raha fanjaka fanoe’oo.
O God! thou hast taught me from my youth, And thus far have I declared thy wondrous deeds;
18 Aa ndra t’ie bey naho fotivolo, ry Andrianañahare, ko farie’o ampara’ te ataliliko añ’afeafe ty haozara’o; ty hafatrara’o amy ze hene ho avy.
And now, when I am old and gray-headed, O God! forsake me not, Until I make known thine arm to the next generation, -Thy mighty power to all that are to come!
19 Pak’ andindiñe añe ty havantaña’o, ry Andrianañahare. Ihe namonitse o raha ra’elahio: ry Andrianañahare, ia ty mañirinkiriñe ama’o?
For thy goodness, O God! reacheth to the heavens; Wonderful things doest thou! O God! who is like unto thee?
20 Ihe nampahatrea ahiko haemberañe maro naho hasotriañe; ro hameloñ’ahy, hañakatse naho hampipoly ahy hirik’ an-kerakeran-tane ao.
Thou hast suffered us to see great and grievous troubles; Thou wilt again give us life, And wilt bring us back from the depths of the earth!
21 Ehe, onjono ty engeko, vaho mitoliha hañohò ahy.
Thou wilt increase my greatness; Thou wilt again comfort me!
22 Ho rengeko ami’ty mandalina ka, ty ami’ty hatò’o, ry Andrianañahareko; ho saboeko ami’ty marovany, ry Masi-Toka’ Israele.
Then will I praise thee with the psaltery; Even thy faithfulness, O my God! To thee will I sing with the harp, O Holy One of Israel!
23 Hipoñake an-drebeke o soñikoo, ie mandrenge Azo an-tsabo, naho i fiaiko jineba’oy.
My lips shall rejoice, when I sing to thee; And my soul, which thou hast redeemed from death;
24 Ho talilie’ ty lelako lomoñandro o havantaña’oo, fa salatse, toe meñatse o mipay hijoy ahikoo.
My tongue also shall continually speak of thy righteousness: For all who seek my hurt are brought to shame and confounded.
