Salamo 143
1 Salamo nataon’ i Davida.
A psalm of David. Listen, O Lord, to my prayer; attend to my plea. In your faithfulness give me answer, and in your righteousness.
2 Ary aza dia mifandahatra amin’ ny mpanomponao eo am-pitsarana; Fa tsy misy olombelona ho marina eo anatrehanao.
With your servant O enter you not into judgment, for in your sight can no one alive be justified.
3 Fa nanenjika ny fanahiko ny fahavalo; Namely ny aiko ho lavo tamin’ ny tany izy: Nampitoeriny tao amin’ ny maizina aho, toy izay efa maty ela.
For the enemy persecutes me, crushing my life to the ground, making me live in the darkness, as those who have long been dead.
4 Dia reraka ny fanahiko ato anatiko; Fadiranovana ny foko ato anatiko.
My spirit is faint within me, my heart is bewildered within me.
5 Mahatsiaro ny andro fahiny ho Ary misaina ny asanao rehetra; Ny asan’ ny tananao no eritreretiko.
I remember the days of old, and brood over all you have done, musing on all that your hands have wrought.
6 Mananty tanana aminao aho; Ny fanahiko dia tahaka ny tany mangetana eo anatrehanao. (Sela)
I spread out my hands to you: I thirst for you, like parched earth. (Selah)
7 Faingàna hamaly ahy, Jehovah ô, fa reraka ny fanahiko; Aza manafina ny tavanao amiko, Fandrao ho tahaka izay midìna any am-pasana aho.
Answer me soon, Lord, because my spirit is spent. Hide not your face from me, else become I like those who go down to the pit.
8 Ampandreneso ny famindram-ponao aho nony maraina, Fa Hianao no itokiako; Ampahalalao ahy izay lalana tokony halehako, Fa aminao no ananganako ny fanahiko.
Let me learn of your love in the morning, for my trust is in you. Teach me the way I should go: for my heart longs for you.
9 Jehovah ô, vonjeo amin’ ny fa-havaloko aho; Ao aminao no iereko.
Save me, O Lord, from my foes: for to you I have fled for refuge.
10 Ampianaro hanao ny sitraponao aho; Fa Hianao no Andriamanitro; Aoka ny Fanahinao tsara no hitarihanao ahy amin’ izay tany marina.
Teach me to do your will, for you yourself are my God. Guide me by your good spirit, O Lord, on a way that is smooth.
11 Noho ny anaranao, Jehovah ô, velomy aho; Araka ny fahamarinanao avoahy ny fanahiko ho afaka amin’ ny fahoriana.
Be true to your name Lord, spare me, bring me out of distress in your faithfulness.
12 Ary araka ny famindram-ponao fongory ny fahavaloko, Ka aringano izay rehetra mampahory ny fanahiko; Fa mpanomponao aho.
In your kindness extinguish my enemies, and all those who vex me destroy; for I am your servant.
