Psalms 81
1 For the end, a Psalm for Asaph, concerning the wine-presses. Rejoice ye in God our helper; shout aloud to the God of Jacob.
Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Al-gitith. Nataon’ i Asafa. Mihobia ho an’ Andriamanitra herintsika; manaova feo fifaliana ho an’ Andriamanitr’ i Jakoba.
2 Take a psalm, and produce the timbrel, the pleasant psaltery with the harp.
Asandrato ny hira, ka velezo ny ampongatapaka, ary tendreo ny lokanga mahafinaritra mbamin’ ny valiha.
3 Blow the trumpet at the new moon, in the glorious day of your feast.
Tsofy ny anjomara amin’ ny volana; eny, amin’ ny feno-volana, dia amin’ ny andro firavoravoantsika.
4 For [this] is an ordinance for Israel, and a statute of the God of Jacob.
Fa lalàna ho an’ ny Isiraely izany, ary fitsipik’ Andriamanitr’ i Jakoba.
5 He made it [to be] a testimony in Joseph, when he came forth out of the land of Egypt: he heard a language which he understood not.
Notendreny ho vavolombelona eo amin’ i Josefa izany, raha nandeha namely ny tany Egypta Izy; nandre teny tsy fantatro aho.
6 He removed his back from burdens: his hands slaved in making the baskets.
Nampiala ny sorony tamin’ ny entana Aho; nitsahatra tsy nitondra sobiky ny tànany.
7 Thou didst call upon me in trouble, and I delivered thee; I heard thee in the secret place of the storm: I proved thee at the water of Strife. (Pause)
Fony azom-pahoriana ianao, dia niantso Ahy, ka namonjy anao Aho; namaly anao tao amin’ ny fiafenan’ ny kotrokorana Aho, ary nizaha toetra anao tao amin’ ny ranon’ i Meriba. (Sela)
8 Hear, my people, and I will speak to thee, O Israel; and I will testify to thee: if thou wilt hearken to me;
Mihainoa, ry oloko, dia hambarako aminao; enga anie hihaino Ahy ianao, ry Isiraely.
9 there shall be no new god in thee; neither shalt thou worship a strange god.
Aza asiana andriamani-kafa eo aminao; ary aza mivavaka amin’ ny andriamanitry ny firenena hafa.
10 For I am the Lord thy God, that brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrao, Izay nitondra anao niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta; atanatanao ny vavanao, dia hofenoiko.
11 But my people hearkened not to my voice; and Israel gave no heed to me.
Fa tsy nihaino ny feoko ny oloko; ary ny Isiraely tsy nankato Ahy;
12 So I let them go after the ways of their own hearts: they will go on in their own ways.
Ka dia navelako hanaraka ny ditry ny fony Izy, handehanany manaraka ny fisainan’ ny tenany.
13 If my people had hearkened to me, if Israel had walked in my ways,
Enga anie ka hihaino Ahy ny oloko, dia handeha amin’ ny lalako ny Isiraely;
14 I should have put down their enemies very quickly, and should have laid my hand upon those that afflicted them.
Vetivety dia hampietry ny fahavalony Aho, ka hamerina ny tanako hamely ny rafiny;
15 The Lord's enemies [should have] lied to him: but their time shall be for ever.
Izay mankahala an’ i Jehovah dia hikoy aminy, ka dia haharitra mandrakizay ny andron’ ny oloko;
16 And he fed them with the fat of wheat; and satisfied them with honey out of the rock.
Ary hampihinana azy vary tsara indrindra Izy; eny, tantely avy amin’ ny vatolampy no hamokisako anao.
