Salamo 108

1 Tonon-kira. Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Andriamanitra ô, tafatoetra ny foko; Ny fanahiko no hihira sy hankalaza.

A canticle of a psalm for David himself. My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: I will sing, and will give praise, with my glory.

2 Mifohaza, ry valiha sy lokanga; hifoha maraina koa aho.

Arise, my glory; arise, psaltery and harp: I will arise in the morning early.

3 Hidera Anao eny amin’ ny firenena maro aho, Jehovah ô, Ary hankalaza Anao eny amin’ ny jentilisa.

I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: and I will sing unto thee among the populations.

4 Fa lehibe mihoatra ny lanitra ny famindram-ponao; Ary mipaka eny amin’ ny rahona ny fahamarinanao.

For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth even unto the clouds.

5 Misandrata any ambonin’ ny lanitra Hianao, Andriamanitra ô; Ary aoka ho etỳ ambonin’ ny tany rehetra ny voninahitrao.

Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory over all the earth:

6 Mba hahafaka ny malalanao, Dia vonjeo amin’ ny tananao ankavanana aho, ka valio.

That thy beloved may be delivered. Save with thy right hand and hear me.

7 Andriamanitra niteny tamin’ ny fahamasinany hoe: Hifaly Aho ka hizara an’ i Sekema, Ary ny lohasahan’ i Sokota horefesiko;

God hath spoken in his holiness. I will rejoice, and I will divide Sichem and I will mete out the vale of tabernacles.

8 Ahy Gileada, Ahy Manase; Ary aron’ ny lohako Efraima; Tehim-panjakako Joda;

Galaad is mine, and Manasses is mine and Ephraim the protection of my head. Juda is my king:

9 Tavindranoko fanasana Moaba; Edoma no hanipazako ny kapako; noho ny amin’ i Filistia ho hihobiako.

Moab the pot of my hope. Over Edom I will stretch out my shoe: the aliens are become my friends.

10 Iza no hitondra ahy ho any an-tanàna mafy? Iza no hitarika ahy ho any Edoma?

Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?

11 Tsy Hianao va no efa nanary anay, Andriamanitra ô, Sady tsy mivoaka miaraka amin’ ny miaramilanay, Andriamanitra ô?

Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our armies?

12 Vonjeo amin’ ny fahavalo izahay; Fa zava-poana ny famonjena ataon’ ny olona.

O grant us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.

13 Andriamanitra no haharezan-tsika; Fa Izy no hanitsakitsaka ny fahavalontsika.

Through God we shall do mightily: and he will bring our enemies to nothing.
