< Psalms 129 >
1 A Song of Ascents. Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth up, let Israel now say;
Fihirana fiakarana.
2 Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth up: yet they have not prevailed against me.
Mafy no nampahoriany ahy hatry ny fony aho mbola tanora; Nefa tsy naharesy ahy izy.
3 The plowers plowed upon my back; they made long their furrows.
Ny mpiasa dia niasa ny lamosiko; Efa nanalava ny vavasany izy.
4 The LORD is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked.
Marina Jehovah: Efa nanapaka ny famatorana nataon’ ny ratsy fanahy Izy.
5 Let them be ashamed and turned backward, all they that hate Zion.
Aoka ho menatra sy hiamboho Izay rehetra mandrafy an’ i Ziona
6 Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up:
Ka ho tahaka ny ahitra eo an-tampon-trano. Izay malazo, na dia tsy misy manongotra azy aza;
7 Wherewith the reaper filleth not his hand, nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom.
Tsy misy mpijinja mameno tanana Na mpamehy amboara mameno tratra amin’ izany;
8 Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you; we bless you in the name of the LORD.
Ka dia tsy hisy mpandalo hanao hoe: Hotahin’ i Jehovah anie ianareo; Eny, ny anaran’ i Jehovah no itsofanay rano anareo.
