Salamo 91
1 I mpimoneñe am-pipalira’ i Andindimoneñeiy, ty hitoetse añ’alo’ i El-Sadai ao,
Praise of a Song, by David. He that dwells in the help of the Highest, shall sojourn under the shelter of the God of heaven.
2 Hanoako ty hoe t’Iehovà: Ty fiampirako, ty rova fitsolohako, i Andrianañahare fiatoakoy.
He shall say to the Lord, You are my helper and my refuge: my God; I will hope in him.
3 Ie ty mpañaha azo boak’ am-bitsom-pamandri-boroñe ao, naho boak’ amy biloka mahahomakey.
For he shall deliver you from the snare of the hunters, from [every] troublesome matter.
4 Haholonkolo’e am-bolon-ela’e ao irehe, ambane’ o ela’eo ty hipalira’o; fikalan-defo naho fikala-meso ty hatò’e.
He shall overshadow you with his shoulders, and you shall trust under his wings: his truth shall cover you with a shield.
5 Tsy hahahembañ’ azo ty hetraketrak’ an-kaleñe, ndra ty ana-pale mihirirìñe an-tariñandroke.
You shall not be afraid of terror by night; nor of the arrow flying by day;
6 Ndra ty kiria mitingañe añ’ieñe ao ndra ty angorosy mamotsake naho antoandro.
[nor] of the [evil] thing that walks in darkness; [nor] of calamity, and the evil spirit at noon-day.
7 Arivo ty mete hikorovok’ añ’ ila’o eo, le rai-ale ty am-pitàn-kavana’o eo, f’ie tsy hitotok’ azo.
A thousand shall fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.
8 O fihaino’oo avao ro hisamba, hahaisake ty fandilovañe o lo-tserekeo.
Only with your eyes shall you observe and see the reward of sinners.
9 Amy te Iehovà, fitsolohako, i Andindimoneñey, ty nanoe’o fimoneñañe,
For you, O Lord, are my hope: you, my soul, have made the Most High your refuge.
10 Tsy hidoiñe ama’o ty hankàñe, tsy hitotofan-angorosy ty akiba’o,
No evils shall come upon you, and no scourge shall draw near to your dwelling.
11 Fa hafanto’e ama’o o anjeli’eo, hañambeñe azo amo lia’o iabio;
For he shall give his angels charge concerning you, to keep you in all your ways.
12 hañotrotroa’e am-pità’e ao, tsy mone hadasi’o ami’ty vato ty fandia’o.
They shall bear you up on their hands, lest at any time you dash your foot against a stone.
13 Ho lià’o ty liona naho ty fandrefeala; ho hitsakitsahe’o ambanem-pandia’o eo ty liona-tora’e naho i mereñey.
You shall tread on the asp and basilisk: and you shall trample on the lion and dragon.
14 Kanao ifahara’e koko, ho hahako, havotrako an-kaboañe ey amy te fohi’e ty añarako.
For he has hoped in me, and I will deliver him: I will protect him, because he has known my name.
15 Ho kanjie’e, le ho toiñeko; hindrezako te am-poheke, ho votsorako vaho ho tolorako asiñe.
He shall call upon me, and I will listen to him: I am with him in affliction; and I will deliver him, and glorify him.
16 Heneñeko halava’ havelon-dre; vaho hampahaoniñeko aze ty fandrombahako.
I will satisfy him with length of days, and show him my salvation.
