< Psalms 115 >
1 Not to us, LORD, not to us, but to your name be the glory, for your loving kindness and for your faithfulness.
Jehovah ô, aza izahay, aza izahay no omena voninahitra, Fa ny anaranao ihany, Noho ny famindram-ponao sy ny fahamarinanao.
2 Why should the nations say, "Where is their God, now?"
Nahoana ny jentilisa no manao hoe: Aiza izay Andriamaniny?
3 But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.
Nefa any an-danitra Andriamanitsika; Efa nanao izay sitrapony rehetra Izy.
4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
Volafotsy sy volamena ny sampin’ ireny, Asan’ ny tanan’ olona:
5 They have mouths, but they do not speak. They have eyes, but they do not see.
Manam-bava izy, fa tsy miteny; Mana-maso izy, fa tsy mahita;
6 They have ears, but they do not hear. They have noses, but they do not smell.
Manan-tsofina izy, fa tsy mandre; Manana orona izy, fa tsy manimbolo:
7 They have hands, but they do not feel. They have feet, but they do not walk, neither do they speak through their throat.
Manan-tanana izy, fa tsy mandray; Manan-tongotra izy, fa tsy mandeha; Ary tsy mahaloa-peo ny tendany.
8 Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.
Ho tahaka azy izay manao azy Sy izay rehetra matoky azy.
9 Israel, trust in the LORD. He is their help and their shield.
Ry Isiraely ô, matokia an’ i Jehovah; Heriny sy ampingany Izy.
10 House of Aaron, trust in the LORD. He is their help and their shield.
Ry taranak’ i Arona ô, matokia an’ i Jehovah; Heriny sy ampingany Izy.
11 You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD. He is their help and their shield.
Hianareo izay matahotra an’ i Jehovah, matokia an’ i Jehovah; Heriny sy ampingany Izy.
12 The LORD remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron.
Jehovah mahatsiaro ka mitahy antsika; Hitahy ny taranak’ i Isiraely Izy; Hitahy ny taranak’ i Arona Izy;
13 He will bless those who fear the LORD, both small and great.
Hotahiny izay matahotra an’ i Jehovah, Na ny kely na ny lehibe.
14 May the LORD increase you more and more, you and your children.
Jehovah anie hampitombo anareo, Dia ianareo mbamin’ ny zanakareo.
15 Blessed are you by the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
Hitahy anareo anie Jehovah, Mpanao ny lanitra sy ny tany.
16 The heavens are the heavens of the LORD; but the earth has he given to the descendants of Adam.
Ny lanitra dia an’ i Jehovah: fa ny tany nomeny ho an’ ny zanak’ olombelona.
17 The dead do not praise the LORD, neither any who go down into silence;
Ny maty tsy mba hidera an’ i Jehovah. Na izay midìna any amin’ ny mangingina;
18 But we will bless the LORD, from this time forth and forevermore. Praise the LORD.
Fa izahay hisaotra an’ i Jehovah Hatramin’ izao ka ho mandrakizay. Haleloia.
