Salamo 71
1 Ihe ry Iehovà, ro itsolohako; ko apo’o ho salareñe,
In you, Yahweh, I take refuge. Never let me be disappointed.
2 Votsoro ami’ty havantaña’o, naho hahao; atokilaño amako ty ravembia’o vaho rombaho.
Deliver me in your righteousness, and rescue me. Turn your 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 to me a rock of refuge to which I may always go. Give the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.
4 Avotsoro an-tañan-do-tsereke iraho, ry Andrianañahareko ami’ty fivontitira’ ty mpandilatse naho i mpampisoañey.
Rescue me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
5 Fa Ihe ro fitamàko, ry Iehovà Talè; ty natokisako boak’ami’te nahajalahy.
For you are my hope, Lord Yahweh, my confidence from my youth.
6 Ihe ty nirampiako boak’an-kovin-dreneko ao; Ihe ty nañakatse ahy an-tron-dreneko; Rengeko nainai’e irehe.
I have relied on you from the womb. You are he who took me out of my mother’s womb. I will always praise you.
7 Filatsà’ i màroy iraho, f’Ihe ro fipalirako maozatse.
I am a marvel to many, but you are my strong refuge.
8 Pea’ ty fibangoañe naho ty fiasiañ’Azo lomoñandro ty vavako,
My mouth shall be filled with your praise, with your honor all day long.
9 Ko aitoa’o iraho naho fa bey; ko mamorintseñe ahy naho milesa ty haozarako.
Don’t reject me in my old age. Don’t forsake me when my strength fails.
10 Fa nikinia’ o rafelahikoo; vaho mitrao-pikilily ahy o mivoñoñe ty fiaikoo,
For my enemies talk about me. Those who watch for my soul conspire together,
11 ami’ty hoe: naforintsen’ Añahare, horidaño arè vaho tsepaho amy t’ie po-pañolotse.
saying, “God has forsaken him. Pursue and take him, for no one will rescue him.”
12 Ry Andrianañahare, ko ihànkaña’o, ry Andrianañahareko, malisà hañolots’ ahy.
God, don’t be far from me. My God, hurry to help me.
13 Ho salareñe naho mongoreñe o manisý ty fiaikoo; le hoboñañ’ inje naho hameñarañe o mipay hijoy ahikoo.
Let my accusers be disappointed and consumed. Let them be covered with disgrace and scorn who want to harm me.
14 Fa naho izaho, hitama nainai’e vaho honjoneko avao ty fandrengeako Azo.
But I will always hope, and will add to all of your praise.
15 Ho talilie’ ty vavako o havantaña’oo, naho o fandrombaha’o lomoñandroo, fe nofiko ty hamaro’e.
My mouth will tell about your righteousness, and of your salvation all day, though I don’t know its full measure.
16 Hindeseko o tolon-draha’o ra’elahio, ry Iehovà Talè; ho taroñeko ty havantaña’o, ty Azo avao.
I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord Yahweh. I will make mention of your righteousness, even of yours alone.
17 Ry Andrianañahare, fa nanare’o ahy boak’ ami’ty nahajalahy ahy; pake henaneo, taroñeko avao o raha fanjaka fanoe’oo.
God, you have taught me from my youth. Until now, I have declared your wondrous works.
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.
Yes, even when I am old and gray-haired, God, don’t forsake me, until I have declared your strength to the next generation, your might to everyone who is to come.
19 Pak’ andindiñe añe ty havantaña’o, ry Andrianañahare. Ihe namonitse o raha ra’elahio: ry Andrianañahare, ia ty mañirinkiriñe ama’o?
God, your righteousness also reaches to the heavens. You have done great things. God, who is like you?
20 Ihe nampahatrea ahiko haemberañe maro naho hasotriañe; ro hameloñ’ahy, hañakatse naho hampipoly ahy hirik’ an-kerakeran-tane ao.
You, who have shown us many and bitter troubles, you will let me live. You will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.
21 Ehe, onjono ty engeko, vaho mitoliha hañohò ahy.
Increase my honor and comfort me again.
22 Ho rengeko ami’ty mandalina ka, ty ami’ty hatò’o, ry Andrianañahareko; ho saboeko ami’ty marovany, ry Masi-Toka’ Israele.
I will also praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, my God. I sing praises to you with the lyre, Holy One of Israel.
23 Hipoñake an-drebeke o soñikoo, ie mandrenge Azo an-tsabo, naho i fiaiko jineba’oy.
My lips shall shout for joy! My soul, which you have redeemed, sings praises to you!
24 Ho talilie’ ty lelako lomoñandro o havantaña’oo, fa salatse, toe meñatse o mipay hijoy ahikoo.
My tongue will also talk about your righteousness all day long, for they are disappointed, and they are confounded, who want to harm me.
