1 ULB Ho an'ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon'i Davida. Aminao, ry Yaveh, no hialofako; aza avela ho afa-baraka aho. Avoty amin'ny fahamarinanao aho. BSB BSB: For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. In You, O LORD, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame; save me by Your righteousness.
2 ULB Mihainoa ahy; faingàna hanavotra ahy; meteza ho vatolampy fialofako, fiarovana mafy hamonjy ahy. BSB BSB: Incline Your ear to me; come quickly to my rescue. Be my rock of refuge, the stronghold of my deliverance.
3 ULB Fa vatolampiko sy fiarovana mafy ho ahy Ianao; koa nohon'ny amin'ny anaranao, tariho sy tantano aho. BSB BSB: For You are my rock and my fortress; lead me and guide me for the sake of Your name.
4 ULB Sintony hiala amin'ny harato izay nafenin'izy ireo ho ahy aho, fa Ianao no fialofako. BSB BSB: You free me from the net laid out for me, for You are my refuge.
5 ULB Eo an-tananao no anankinako ny fanahiko; hanavotra ahy Ianao, ry Yaveh, ry Andriamanitry ny fahamendreham-pitokisana. BSB BSB: Into Your hands I commit my spirit; You have redeemed me, O LORD, God of truth.
6 ULB Halako ireo izay manompo sampy zava-poana, fa izaho hatoky an'i Yaveh. BSB BSB: I hate those who cling to worthless idols, but in the LORD I trust.
7 ULB Hifaly sy hiravoravo amin'ny fanekenao mahatoky aho, fa Ianao nahita ny fahoriako; fantatrao ny fahorian'ny fanahiko. BSB BSB: I will be glad and rejoice in Your loving devotion, for You have seen my affliction; You have known the anguish of my soul.
8 ULB Tsy nomenao ho eo an-tanan'ireo fahavaloko aho. Nametraka ny tongotro ho eo amin'ny tany malalaka Ianao. BSB BSB: You have not delivered me to the enemy; You have set my feet in the open.
9 ULB Mamindrà fo amiko, ry Yaveh, fa ao anatin'ny fahoriana aho; miha-reraky ny alahelo ny masoko miaraka amin'ny fanahiko sy ny vatako. BSB BSB: Be merciful to me, O LORD, for I am in distress; my eyes fail from sorrow, my soul and body as well.
10 ULB Fa ny aiko dia reraky ny alahelo ary ny taonako nohon'ny fisentoana. Lefy ny heriko nohon'ny fahotako, ary ireo taolako dia mihalany. BSB BSB: For my life is consumed with grief and my years with groaning; my iniquity has drained my strength, and my bones are wasting away.
11 ULB Noho ireo fahavaloko rehetra, ny olona manao tsinontsinona ahy; ireo mpiray monina amiko rikoriko amin'ny manjo ahy; ary ireo izay mahafantatra ahy dia mivarahontsana. Ireo izay mahita ahy eny an-dalana mitsoaka ahy. BSB BSB: Among all my enemies I am a disgrace, and among my neighbors even more. I am dreaded by my friends—they flee when they see me on the street.
12 ULB Adino toy ny olona maty izay tsy misy mpieritreritra aho. Toy ny vilany vaky aho. BSB BSB: I am forgotten like a dead man, out of mind. I am like a broken vessel.
13 ULB Fa reko ny bitsibitsiky ny maro, ireo vaovao mampahatahotra avy eny rehetra eny satria izy ireo miray tetika hanohitra ahy. Mitetika ny haka ny aiko izy ireo. BSB BSB: For I hear the slander of many; there is terror on every side. They conspire against me and plot to take my life.
14 ULB Fa matoky Anao aho, ry Yaveh; hoy aho hoe: "Andriamanitro Ianao." BSB BSB: But I trust in You, O LORD; I say, “You are my God.”
15 ULB Ny anjarako dia eo an-tananao. Avoty amin'ny tanan'ireo fahavaloko sy ireo izay manenjika ahy aho. BSB BSB: My times are in Your hands; deliver me from my enemies and from those who pursue me.
16 ULB Hampamirapirato amin'ny mpanomponao ny tavanao; avoty amin'ny fanekenao mahatoky aho. BSB BSB: Make Your face shine on Your servant; save me by Your loving devotion.
17 ULB Aza avela ho menatra aho, ry Yaveh; fa izaho miantso Anao! Ho menatra anie izay ratsy fanahy! Hangina any amin'ny fiainan-tsy hita anie izy ireo. BSB BSB: O LORD, let me not be ashamed, for I have called on You. Let the wicked be put to shame; let them lie silent in Sheol.
18 ULB Aoka ireo molotra mandainga hangina izay miresaka hanohitra ny fahamarinana amim-pihantsiana miaraka amin'ny fiavonavonana sy ny fanamavoana. BSB BSB: May lying lips be silenced—lips that speak with arrogance against the righteous, full of pride and contempt.
19 ULB Endrey ny fahatsaranao izay notehirizinao ho an'izay nanaja anao, izay tanterahinao amin'izay mialoka aminao manoloana ireo zanak'olombelona rehetra! BSB BSB: How great is Your goodness which You have laid up for those who fear You, which You have bestowed before the sons of men on those who take refuge in You!
20 ULB Eo amin'ny fialofan'ny teti-dratsin'ireo olona. Manafina azy ireo amin'ny fialofana amin'ny herisetran'ny lela Ianao. BSB BSB: You hide them in the secret place of Your presence from the schemes of men. You conceal them in Your shelter from accusing tongues.
21 ULB Ho deraina anie Yaveh, fa naneho ny fanekeny mahatoky mahagaga Izy raha tao anatin'ny tanàna voafahirano aho. BSB BSB: Blessed be the LORD, for He has shown me His loving devotion in a city under siege.
22 ULB Na dia nilaza tamin'ny fahatairako aza aho hoe: "Nesorina tsy ho eo imasonao aho," eny mbola mandre ny fitarainako famonjena Ianao raha niantso Anao aho. BSB BSB: In my alarm I said, “I am cut off from Your sight!” But You heard my plea for mercy when I called to You for help.
23 ULB Tiava an'i Yaveh, ianareo ry mpanara-dia mahatoky. Yaveh miharo ny mahatoky, fa mamaly tanteraka ny mpiavonavona. BSB BSB: Love the LORD, all His saints. The LORD preserves the faithful, but fully repays the arrogant.
24 ULB Mahereza sy matanjaha, ianareo rehetra izay matoky an'i Yaveh amin'ny famonjena. BSB BSB: Be strong and courageous, all you who hope in the LORD.
