Salamo 104
1 Misaora an’ i Jehovah, ry fanahiko. Jehovah Andriamanitro ô, lehibe indrindra Hianao, Famirapiratana sy voninahitra no fitafinao,
Bless, O my soul, the Lord. O Lord my God, thou art very great; with glory and majesty art thou clothed.
2 Mitafy ny mazava tahaka ny lamba Izy Ary mamelatra ny lanitra tahaka ny lay,
[Thou art he] who wrappeth himself in light as with a garment; who stretcheth out the heavens like a curtain;
3 Ary mametraka ny rairain-drihan’ ny tranony amin’ ny rano, Sady manao ny rahona matevina ho kalesiny ka mandeha amin’ ny elatry ny rivotra,
Who frameth of the waters the beams of his upper-chambers; who maketh the clouds his chariot; who walketh along upon the wings of the wind:
4 Ary manao ny rivotra ho irany Sy ny lelafo ho mpanompony.
Who maketh the winds his messengers; the flaming fire his ministers;
5 Nanorina ny tany tambonin’ ny fanorenany Izy, Mba tsy hihetseha-ny mandrakizay doria.
Who hath founded the earth upon her bases, that she should not be moved to all eternity.
6 Ny rano lalina no nasaronao azy tahaka ny lamba; Nandifotra ny tendrombohitra aza ireny.
Thou hadst covered the deep as with a garment: above the mountains stood the waters.
7 Noho ny teny mafy nataonao dia nandositra ny tendrombohitra, Noho ny feon’ ny kotrokoranao dia nirifatra izy
At thy rebuke they fled, at the voice of thy thunder they hastened away.
8 Nisondrotra ny tendrombohitra, nietry ny lohasaha ho any amin’ izay namboarinao hitoerany.
They ascended mountains; they went down valleys, unto the place which thou hadst founded for them.
9 Efa nasianao fetra tsy hihoarany izy Mba tsy hiverina hanarona ny tany.
Bounds hast thou set which they cannot pass over, that they return not again to cover the earth.
10 Mampandeha loharano eny amin’ ny lohasaha Izy; Eny anelanelan’ ny tendrombohitra no alehan’ ireny,
[Thou art he] who sendeth springs into the valleys, between mountains they run along.
11 Ka isotroan’ ny bibi-dia rehetra, Sy analan’ ny boriki-dia ny hetahetany;
They give drink to all the beasts of the field: the wild asses quench [thereon] their thirst.
12 Eo amboniny no itoeran’ ny voro-manidina; Ary eo amin’ ny ran-tsan-kazo no anenoany.
By them have the fowls of the heaven ever their habitation, from between the branches they send forth their voice.
13 Manondra-drano ny tendrombohitra avy amin’ ny tranony ambony Izy; Ny vokatry ny asanao no mahavoky ny tany.
Who watereth the mountains from his upper-chambers: from the fruit of thy works is the earth satisfied.
14 Mampaniry ahitra ho an’ ny biby fiompy Izy Sy anana hahasoa ny olona. Ary mamoaka hanina avy amin’ ny tany.
[Thou art he] who causeth grass to grow for the cattle, and herbs by the service of man, that he may bring forth bread out of the earth;
15 Ary divay izay mampifaly ny olona, ka mampinendonendo ny tavany mihoatra noho ny diloilo, Ary mofo hanohanana ny ain’ ny olona.
And wine that maketh joyful the heart of man, [and] oil to brighten his face, and bread which strengtheneth the heart of man.
16 Voky ny hazon’ i Jehovah, Dia ny sederan’ i Libanona, izay namboleny;
Full of sap are the trees of the Lord, the cedars of Lebanon which he hath planted;
17 Izay anaovan’ ny voron-kely ny akaniny; Ary ny vano, dia ao amin’ ny kypreso no anaovany ny tranony.
Where the birds make their nests: the stork—fir-trees are her house.
18 Ny tendrombohitra avo dia ho an’ ny osi-dia; Ny harambato no fiarovana ho an’ ny hyraka.
The high mountains are for the wild goats: the rocks are a shelter for the conies.
19 Nanao ny volana ho fotoana Izy, Ary ny masoandro mahalala ny filentehany.
He hath made the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.
20 Mahatonga aizina Hianao, dia tonga ny alina, Ka mivezivezy ny biby rehetra any an’ ala;
Thou causest darkness, and it becometh night, wherein creep forth all the beasts of the forest.
21 Ny liona tanora mierona maniry toha Ka mitady ny haniny avy amin’ Andriamanitra.
The young lions roar after their prey, and ask from God their food.
22 Miposaka ny masoandro, dia miverina ireny, Ary ao an-davany no amitsahany.
The sun ariseth, they withdraw [to their lairs], and lie down in their dens.
23 Fa ny olona kosa mivoaka ho any amin’ ny taozavany, Sy ny asany mandra-paharivan’ ny andro.
Man goeth [then] forth unto his work, and to his labor until the evening.
24 Endrey ny hamaroan’ ny asanao, Jehovah ô! Fahendrena no nanaovanao azy rehetra; Henika ny zavatra nataonao ny tany.
How manifold are thy works, O Lord! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.
25 Indro ny ranomasina sady lehibe no malalaka, Any no misy zava-mihetsiketsika tsy tambo isaina, Dia zava-miaina, na kely na lehibe.
Here is this great and wide-extended sea; therein are moving things without number, living creatures both small and great.
26 Any no alehan’ ny sambo Sy ny trozona, izay noforoninao hilaolao any.
There the ships make their way: [there also] is the leviathan, whom thou hast made to sport therein.
27 Ireo rehetra ireo miandry Anao, Mba homenao ny haniny amin’ ny fotoany.
All of these wait upon thee, to give them their food in its due season.
28 Manome Hianao, dia manangona izy; Manokatra ny tananao Hianao, dia voky ny soa izy;
What thou givest them they gather: thou openest thy hand, they are satisfied with good.
29 Manafina ny tavanao Hianao, dia raiki-tahotra izy; Alainao indray ny ainy, dia maty izy Ka mody any amin’ ny vovoka nanalana azy,
Thou hidest thy face, they suddenly vanish: thou takest away their spirit, they perish, and to their dust they return.
30 Maniraka ny Fanahinao Hianao, dia ary izy, Ary manavao ny tarehin’ ny tany Hianao.
Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created; and thou renewest the face of the earth.
31 Ho mandrakizay anie ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah; Aoka Jehovah hifaly amin’ ny asany.
The glory of the Lord will endure for ever; the Lord will rejoice in his works:
32 Jereny ny tany, dia mihorohoro; Tendren’ ny tànany ny tendrombohitra, dia midonaka.
He who looketh down on the earth, and she trembleth; who toucheth the mountains, and they smoke.
33 Hihira ho an’ i Jehovah aho, raha mbola velona koa; Hankalaza an’ Andriamanitro aho, raha mbola miaina.
I will sing unto the Lord while I live: I will sing praises to my God while I exist.
34 Ho maminy anie ny fisainako Azy; Izaho no hifaly amin’ i Jehovah.
May my speech be agreeable to him: I will indeed rejoice in the Lord.
35 Ho lany ringana tsy ho etỳ amin’ ny tany ny mpanota, Ary ny ratsy fanahy tsy ho etỳ intsony. Misaora an’ i Jehovah, ry fanahiko. Haleloia.
May the sinners cease from off the earth, and the wicked be no more. Bless, O my soul, the Lord. Hallelujah.
