Salamo 112

1 Haleloia. Sambatra ny olona izay matahotra an’ i Jehovah Sady mankasitraka ny didiny indrindra.

Let the Lord be praised. Happy is the man who gives honour to the Lord, and has great delight in his laws.

2 Hahery ambonin’ ny tany ny zanany; Hotahina ny taranaky ny marina.

His seed will be strong on the earth; blessings will be on the generation of the upright.

3 Fananana sy harena no ao an-tranony; Ary ny fahamarinany haharitra mandrakizay.

A store of wealth will be in his house, and his righteousness will be for ever.

4 Ao amin’ ny maizina no iposahan’ ny mazava ho an’ ny mahitsy; Mamindra fo sy miantra ary marina ireny.

For the upright there is a light shining in the dark; he is full of grace and pity.

5 Sambatra ny olona izay miantra ka mampisambotra; Tsy mba ho resy eo am-pitsarana izy.

All is well for the man who is kind and gives freely to others; he will make good his cause when he is judged.

6 Fa tsy hangozohozo mandrakizay izy; Hotsarovana mandrakizay ny marina.

He will not ever be moved; the memory of the upright will be living for ever.

7 Tsy mba manahinahy hahare loza izy; Tafatoetra matoky an’ i Jehovah ny fony.

He will have no fear of evil news; his heart is fixed, for his hope is in the Lord.

8 Voatohana ny fony, ka tsy hatahotra izy, Mandra-pifaliny mahita ny amin’ ny mpandrafy azy.

His heart is resting safely, he will have no fear, till he sees trouble come on his haters.

9 Namafy izy, eny, nanome ho an’ ny malahelo; Ny fahamarinany maharitra mandrakizay; Hisandratra amim-boninahitra ny tandrony.

He has given with open hands to the poor; his righteousness is for ever; his horn will be lifted up with honour.

10 Ny ratsy fanahy hahita ka ho sosotra; Hihidy vazana izy ka ho levona; Ho foana ny fanirian’ ny ratsy fanahy.

The sinner will see it with grief; he will be wasted away with envy; the desire of the evil-doers will come to nothing.
