< Salamo 111 >
1 Haleloia. Hidera an’ i Jehovah amin’ ny foko rehetra aho, Eo amin’ ny fivorian’ ny marina sy ny fiangonan-dehibe.
Praise Yahweh! I will thank Yahweh with my entire inner being, every time I am with a large group of godly/righteous people.
2 Lehibe ny asan’ i Jehovah, Ka dinihin’ izay rehetra mankasitraka azy.
The things that Yahweh has done are wonderful! All those who are delighted/pleased with those things desire to (study/think about) them.
3 Madera sady malaza ny asany; Ary ny fahamarinany maharitra mandrakizay.
[Because of everything] that he does, people greatly honor him and respect him because he is a great king; the righteous/just things that he does will endure forever.
4 Manao izay hahatsiarovana ny fahagagana ataony Izy; Miantra sy mamindra fo Jehovah.
He has [appointed/established festivals in which] we remember the wonderful things that he has done; Yahweh [always] is kind and merciful.
5 Nomeny hanina izay matahotra Azy; Tsarovany mandrakizay ny fanekeny.
He provides food for those who revere him; he never forgets the agreement that he made [with our ancestors].
6 Ny herin’ ny asany nasehony tamin’ ny olony. Tamin’ ny nanomezany azy ny lovan’ ny jentilisa.
By enabling his people to capture the lands that belonged to other people-groups, he has shown to [us], his people, that he is very powerful.
7 Ny asan’ ny tànany dia fahamarinana sy fitsarana; Mahatoky avokoa ny didiny rehetra;
He [MTY] faithfully [does what he has promised] and always does what is just/fair, and we can depend on him [to help us] when he commands us to do things.
8 Mitoetra mafy mandrakizay doria ireny, Fa natao tamin’ ny fahamarinana sy ny fahitsiana.
What he commands must be obeyed forever; and he acted in a true and righteous manner when he gave us those commands.
9 Manatitra fanavotana ho an’ ny olony Izy; Efa nanorina ny fanekeny ho mandrakizay Izy; Masìna sy mahatahotra ny anarany.
He rescued [us], his people, [from being slaves in Egypt], and he made an agreement [with us] that will last forever. He [MTY] is holy and awesome!
10 Ny fahatahorana an’ i Jehovah no fiandoham-pahendrena; Fahalalana tsara no ananan’ izay rehetra mankatò izany; Maharitra mandrakizay ny fiderana Azy.
Revering Yahweh is the way to become wise. All those who obey [his commands] will know what is good [for them to decide to do]. We should praise him forever!
