Salamo 108

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

A song, a psalm of David. My heart is fixed, God; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises also with my honored heart.

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

Wake up, lute and harp; I will wake up the dawn.

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

I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the peoples; I will sing praises to you among the nations.

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

For your covenant faithfulness is great above the heavens; and your trustworthiness reaches to the skies.

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

Be exalted, God, above the heavens, and may your glory be exalted over all the earth.

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

So that those you love may be rescued, rescue us with your right hand and answer me.

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

God has spoken in his holiness; “I will rejoice; I will divide Shechem and apportion out the Valley of Succoth.

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

Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is my helmet; Judah is my scepter.

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

Moab is my washbasin; over Edom I will throw my shoe; I will shout in triumph because of Philistia.

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 to Edom?”

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

God, have you not rejected us? You do not go into battle with our army.

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

Give us help against the enemy, for man's help is futile.

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

We will triumph with God's help; he will trample down our enemies.
