Salamo 138

1 Nataon’ i Davida.

I will praise thee, O lord, with my whole heart: for thou hast heard the words of my mouth. I will sing praise to thee in the sight of his angels:

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 towards thy holy temple, and I will give glory to thy name. For thy mercy, and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy holy name above all.

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

In what day soever I shall call upon thee, hear me: thou shall multiply strength in my soul.

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

May all the kings of the earth give glory to thee: for they have heard all the words of thy mouth.

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

And let them sing in the ways of the Lord: for great is the glory of the Lord.

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

For the Lord is high, and looketh on the low: and the high he knoweth afar off.

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.

If I shall walk in the midst of tribulation, thou wilt quicken me: and thou hast stretched forth thy hand against the wrath of my enemies: and thy right hand hath saved me.

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

The Lord will repay for me: thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever: O despise not the work of thy hands.
