Psalms 16
1 A michtam of David. Keep me, O God, for in you I take refuge.
Miktama nataon’ i Davida.
2 I said to the Lord, ‘You are my Lord, my happiness rests in you alone.
Hoy izaho ny amin’ i Jehovah: Tompoko Hianao; tsy misy soa ananako azo oharina aminao;
3 Those who are holy in the land, they, they alone, are the noble ones; all my delight is in them.’
Ary ny amin’ ny olona masìna ambonin’ ny tany, ireo no olona tsara laza izay sitrako indrindra.
4 Those who choose other gods find endless sorrow. In their offerings of blood I will have no part nor take their name on my lips.
Ho be ny fahorian’ izay manova an’ Andriamanitra hatakalony ny hafa. Tsy mba hanatitra ny fanati-drà aidiny aho, ary tsy mba hotononin’ ny molotro ny anarany.
5 The Lord is my share and my portion, my fate is in your strong hands.
Jehovah no anjara lovako sy kapoakako; Hianao no mampaharitra ny anjarako.
6 The boundary lines of my life mark out delightful country, my heritage pleases me well.
Ny voafaritra ho anjarako dia eo amin’ ny tany mahafinaritra; eny, manan-dova tsara aho.
7 I praise the Lord for his counsel, which so stirs my heart in the night.
Hisaotra an’ i Jehovah Izay manome saina ahy aho; ary na amin’ ny alina aza dia mananatra ahy ny foko.
8 I keep the Lord always in mind: with him at my hand, I can never be moved.
Ataoko eo anatrehako mandrakariva Jehovah, fa eo ankavanako Izy, ka dia tsy hangozohozo aho.
9 So my heart is glad, there is joy inside me; and in safety of body I live.
Izany no ifalian’ ny foko sy iravoravoan’ ny fanahiko; eny, ny nofoko aza hitoetra tsy manana ahiahy.
Fa tsy ho foinao ho any amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita ny aiko; tsy hamela ny Iray Masinao ho latsaka ao amin’ ny lavaka Hianao. (Sheol h7585)
11 You will show me the path that leads to life, to that fulness of joy which is in your presence, and the pleasures dispensed by your hand evermore.
Hampahafantatra ahy ny lalan’ aina Hianao; fa havokisam-pifaliana no eo anatrehanao, ary fahafinaretana no eo an-tananao ankavanana mandrakizay.
