Salamo 138

1 Nataon’ i Davida.

[A Psalm] of David. I will give thee thanks with my whole heart: Before the gods will I sing praises unto thee.

2 Hivavaka manandrify ny tempolinao masìna aho Ka hidera ny anaranao noho ny famindram-ponao sy ny fahamarinanao; Fa efa nomenao voninahitra ny teninao ho ambonin’ ny anaranao rehetra.

I will worship toward thy holy temple, And give thanks unto thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: For thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

3 Tamin’ ny andro nitarainako dia namaly ahy Hianao; Nomenao fahasahiana aho ka nisy hery ny fanahiko.

In the day that I called thou answeredst me, Thou didst encourage me with strength in my soul.

4 Jehovah ô, hidera Anao ny mpanjaka rehetra amin’ ny tany, Fa handre ny tenin’ ny vavanao izy.

All the kings of the earth shall give thee thanks, O Jehovah, For they have heard the words of thy mouth.

5 Eny hihira ny amin’ ny lalan’ i Jehovah izy; Fa lehibe ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah.

Yea, they shall sing of the ways of Jehovah; For great is the glory of Jehovah.

6 Fa na dia avo aza Jehovah dia mijery ny ambany toetra, Ary ny mpiavonavona fantany eny lavitra eny.

For though Jehovah is high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly; But the haughty he knoweth from afar.

7 Na dia handeha eo amin’ ny fahoriana aza aho dia hamelona ahy Hianao; Haninjitra ny tananao hanohitra ny fahatezeran’ ny fahavaloko Hianao Ary hamonjy ahy ny tananao ankavanana.

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me; Thou wilt stretch forth thy hand against the wrath of mine enemies, And thy right hand will save me.

8 Jehovah no hahatanteraka ny amiko; Jehovah ô, mandrakizay ny famindram-ponao; Aza mahafoy ny asan’ ny tananao.

Jehovah will perfect that which concerneth me: Thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, [endureth] for ever; Forsake not the works of thine own hands.
