Salamo 147
1 Haleloia; Fa tsara ny mihira ho an’ Andriamanitsika; Eny, mamy sady mendrika ny fiderana.
Alleluia. Praise the Lord, because the psalm is good. Delightful and beautiful praise shall be for our God.
2 Manangana an’ i Jerosalema Jehovah; Mamory ny Isiraely voaroaka Izy.
The Lord builds up Jerusalem. He will gather together the dispersed of Israel.
3 Mahasitrana ny torotoro fo Izy Sy mamehy ny feriny.
He heals the contrite of heart, and he binds up their sorrows.
4 Milaza ny isan’ ny kintana Izy: Samy tononiny amin’ ny anarany ireny rehetra ireny.
He numbers the multitude of the stars, and he calls them all by their names.
5 Lehibe ny Tompontsika sady be hery; Tsy hita lany ny fahalalany.
Great is our Lord, and great is his virtue. And of his wisdom, there is no number.
6 Manandratra ny mpandefitra Jehovah, Fa mampietry ny ratsy fanahy hatramin’ ny tany.
The Lord lifts up the meek, but he brings down the sinner, even to the ground.
7 Mihirà fiderana ho an’ i Jehovah; Mankalazà an’ Andriamanitsika amin’ ny lokanga,
Sing before the Lord with confession. Play psalms to our God on a stringed instrument.
8 Izay manaron-drahona ny lanitra, Izay mamboatra ranonorana ho amin’ ny tany, Izay mampaniry ahitra ny tendrombohitra,
He covers heaven with clouds, and he prepares rain for the earth. He produces grass on the mountains and herbs for the service of men.
9 Manome hanina ho an’ ny biby Izy Sy ho an’ ny zana-goaika izay mitaraina.
He gives their food to beasts of burden and to young ravens that call upon him.
10 Tsy ny herin’ ny soavaly no mahafinaritra Azy, Ary tsy ny tongotry ny olona no sitrany.
He will not have good will for the strength of the horse, nor will he be well pleased with the legs of a man.
11 Jehovah mankasitraka izay matahotra Azy, Dia izay manantena ny famindram-pony.
The Lord is well pleased with those who fear him and with those who hope in his mercy.
12 Mankalazà an’ i Jehovah, ry Jerosalema ô; Miderà an’ Andriamanitrao, ry Ziona ô.
Alleluia. Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem. Praise your God, O Zion.
13 Fa manamafy ny hidim-bavahadinao Izy, Sady mitahy ny zanakao eo afovoanao.
For he has reinforced the bars of your gates. He has blessed your sons within you.
14 Mahatonga ny fari-taninao ho fiadanana Izy; Vokisany vary tsara indrindra ianao.
He has stationed peace at your borders, and he has satisfied you with the fat of the grain.
15 Mampandeha ny didiny ho amin’ ny tany Izy; Miely faingana dia faingana ny teniny.
He sends forth his eloquence to the earth. His word runs swiftly.
16 Mandatsaka oram-panala tahaka ny landihazo Izy; Mampiely fanala tahaka ny lavenona Izy.
He provides snow like wool. He strews clouds like ashes.
17 Mandatsaka ny havandrany ta-haka ny sombintsombin-javatra Izy; Iza no maharitra ny hatsiakany?
He sends his ice crystals like morsels. Who can stand firm before the face of his cold?
18 Mamoaka ny teniny Izy ka mampiempo ireny; Mampifofofofo ny rivony Izy, dia mandriaka ny rano.
He will send forth his word, and it will melt them. His Spirit will breathe out, and the waters will flow.
19 Milaza ny teniny amin’ i Jakoba Izy Ary ny didiny sy ny fitsipiny amin’ Isiraely.
He announces his word to Jacob, his justices and his judgments to Israel.
20 Tsy nanao toy izany tamin’ izay firenena hafa Izy; Ary ny fitsipiny tsy mba fantatr’ ireny. Haleloia.
He has not done so much for every nation, and he has not made his judgments manifest to them. Alleluia.
