< Salamo 16 >

1
A Precious Psalm of David. Preserve me, O GOD, for I have sought refuge in thee.
2 Ty hoe ty tinaroko am’ Iehovà: Ihe ro Talèko, zaho tsy aman-kasoa naho tsy ama’o.
Thou hast said unto Yahweh, My Lord, art thou! My goodness, mounteth not unto thee.
3 O noro’e an-tane atoio: ie ro talango’e, toe mampinembanembañe ahiko.
It belongeth unto the holy ones, whom, in his own land, Yahweh, ennobleth, In whom is all his delight
4 Hampitomboeñe ty hasotria’ ze mihitrike mb’an-tsamposampo’e añe; tsy hailiko ty engan-dranon-dio’iareo, le tsy ho rambesen-tsoñiko o añara’ iareoo.
They multiply their idols—another, have they purchased! I will not pour out their drink-offerings of blood, nor will I take up their names on my lips.
5 Iehovà ro anjara-lovako naho ty fitoviko. Tohañe’o ty navike ho ahiko.
Yahweh, is mine allotted portion and my cup, Thou, art maintaining my lot.
6 An-toetse fanjaka ty nipoha’ o taly ho ahikoo; Eka, soa i lovakoy.
The lines, have fallen unto me, in pleasant places, Verily an inheritance that delighteth me.
7 Andriañeko t’Iehovà mpamere ahiko, ie haleñe, anare’ ty troko.
I will bless Yahweh, who hath counselled me, —Surely, by night, shall mine impulses admonish me.
8 Najadoko aoloko nainai’e t’Iehovà. Ie ty an-tañako havana eo, tsy higavingaviñe.
I have set Yahweh before me continually, because he is on my right hand, I shall not be shaken!
9 Aa le tsy mahay avao ty troko, vaho mirebeke ty havokarako; mierañerañe ka ty sandriko,
Therefore, hath my heart rejoiced, and mine honour exulted, Yea, my flesh, shall settle down securely;
10 amy te tsy hapo’o an-tsikeokeok’ ao ty fiaiko, vaho tsy hado’o hahaoni-pihomahañe i Masi’oy. (Sheol h7585)
For thou wilt not abandon my soul to hades, neither wilt thou suffer thy man of lovingkindness, to see corruption: (Sheol h7585)
11 Ampaharofoana’o ahiko ty lalan-kaveloñe; lifotse hafaleañe ty añatrefa’o; haravoravoañe nainai’e ro am-pitàn-kavana’o.
Thou wilt cause me to know, the path of life, —Fulness of joys before thee, Pleasures at thy right hand evermore.
