Psalms 140

Ho an'ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon'i Davida. Jehovah ô, vonjeo amin'ny olon-dratsy aho, Ary arovy amin'ny olon-dozabe,

Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;

Izay mihevitra ratsy ao am-pony Ka manangana ady isan'andro

Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war.

Mandranitra ny lelany tahaka ny bibilava izy, Ny poizin'ny menarana no ao ambanin'ny molony.

They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison is under their lips. Selah.

Jehovah ô, vonjeo amin'ny tanan'ny ratsy fanahy aho, Ary arovy amin'ny olon-dozabe, Izay efa nihevitra handronjina ahy ho potraka.

Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.

Ny mpiavonavona efa nanafina fandrika sy kofehy hamandrihany ahy; Efa namela-pandrika harato teo amoron-dalana izy; Nametraka tadivavarana hahazoany ahy izy.

The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.

Hoy izaho tamin'i Jehovah Andriamanitro Hianao; Henoy ny feon'ny fifonako, Jehovah ô!

I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD.

Jehovah, Tompo ô, ry Herin'ny famonjena ahy, Manarona ny lohako amin'ny andro fiadiana Hianao.

O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.

Jehovah ô, aza manome ny irin'ny ratsy fanahy; Ary aza avela ho tanteraka ny hevi-dratsiny, fandrao hisandratra izy.

Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.

Ny lohan'izay manemitra ahy Dia aoka hosaronan'ny ratsy tononin'ny molony.

As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.

Aoka hisy vain'afo halatsaka aminy; Aoka hariana any anaty afo izy, na any amin'ny rano lalina, ka tsy hiarina intsony.

Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again.

Tsy hampitoerina amin'ny tany ny olo-mahay vava; Henjehin-doza ny olon-dozabe ka ho lavo.

Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.

Fantatro fa Jehovah no handahatra ny tenin'ny mahantra Sady hanome rariny ho an'ny malahelo.

I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and the right of the poor.

Eny tokoa, ny marina hisaotra ny anaranao; Hitoetra eo anatrehanao ny mahitsy.

Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.
