Psalms 13

Ho an'ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon'i Davida. Jehovah ô, mandra-pahoviana no mbola hanadinoanao ahy ihany? Mandra-pahoviana no mbola hanafenanao ny tavanao amiko?

How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

Mandra-pahoviana no mbola hisaintsainako am-panahy, sy hahalahelovako am-po isan'andro? Mandra-pahoviana no mbola hisandratan'ny fahavaloko ho amboniko?

How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?

Jereo aho ka valio, Jehovah Andriamanitro ô; ampahazavao ny mazoto, fandrao renoky ny torimaso fahafatesana aho;

Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;

Fandrao ny fahavaloko hanao hoe: naharesy azy aho, fandrao hifaly ny rafilahiko, raha mangozohozo aho.

Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.

Fa raha izaho kosa, dia ny famindram-ponao no itokiako; ho faly amin'ny famonjenao ny foko.

But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.

Hihira ho an'i Jehovah aho, satria nanisy soa ahy Izy;

I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
