< Salamo 123 >

1 Fihirana fiakarana.
A Song of Ascents. Unto thee do I lift up mine eyes, O thou that sittest in the heavens.
2 Indro, toy ny fijerin’ ny ankizilahy Ny tanan’ ny tompolahiny, Ary toy ny fijerin’ ny ankizivavy Ny tanan’ ny tompovaviny, No fijerintsika an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika, Mandra-pamindra fony amintsika.
Behold, as the eyes of servants [look] unto the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes [look] unto the LORD our God, until he have mercy upon us.
3 Mamindrà fo aminay, Jehovah ô, mamindrà fo aminay; Fa tototry ny fanamavoana loatra izahay;
Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
4 Eny, tototry ny famingavingan’ ny miadana ny fanahinay, Sy tototry ny fanamavoan’ ny mpiavonavona.
Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.
