Salamo 147
1 Haleloia; Fa tsara ny mihira ho an’ Andriamanitsika; Eny, mamy sady mendrika ny fiderana.
Praise ye the LORD! For it is good to sing praise to our God; For it is pleasant, and praise is becoming.
2 Manangana an’ i Jerosalema Jehovah; Mamory ny Isiraely voaroaka Izy.
The LORD buildeth up Jerusalem; He gathereth together the dispersed of Israel.
3 Mahasitrana ny torotoro fo Izy Sy mamehy ny feriny.
He healeth the broken in heart, And bindeth up their wounds.
4 Milaza ny isan’ ny kintana Izy: Samy tononiny amin’ ny anarany ireny rehetra ireny.
He counteth the number of the stars; He calleth them all by their names.
5 Lehibe ny Tompontsika sady be hery; Tsy hita lany ny fahalalany.
Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite.
6 Manandratra ny mpandefitra Jehovah, Fa mampietry ny ratsy fanahy hatramin’ ny tany.
The LORD lifteth up the lowly; He casteth the wicked down to the ground.
7 Mihirà fiderana ho an’ i Jehovah; Mankalazà an’ Andriamanitsika amin’ ny lokanga,
Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; Sing praises upon the harp to our God!
8 Izay manaron-drahona ny lanitra, Izay mamboatra ranonorana ho amin’ ny tany, Izay mampaniry ahitra ny tendrombohitra,
Who covereth the heavens with clouds, Who prepareth rain for the earth, Who causeth grass to grow upon the mountains.
9 Manome hanina ho an’ ny biby Izy Sy ho an’ ny zana-goaika izay mitaraina.
He giveth to the cattle their food. And to the young ravens, when they cry.
10 Tsy ny herin’ ny soavaly no mahafinaritra Azy, Ary tsy ny tongotry ny olona no sitrany.
He delighteth not in the strength of the horse, He taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.
11 Jehovah mankasitraka izay matahotra Azy, Dia izay manantena ny famindram-pony.
The LORD taketh pleasure in those who fear him, In those who trust in his mercy.
12 Mankalazà an’ i Jehovah, ry Jerosalema ô; Miderà an’ Andriamanitrao, ry Ziona ô.
Praise the LORD. O Jerusalem! Praise thy God, O Zion!
13 Fa manamafy ny hidim-bavahadinao Izy, Sady mitahy ny zanakao eo afovoanao.
For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; He hath blessed thy children within thee.
14 Mahatonga ny fari-taninao ho fiadanana Izy; Vokisany vary tsara indrindra ianao.
He maketh peace in thy borders, And satisfieth thee with the finest of the wheat.
15 Mampandeha ny didiny ho amin’ ny tany Izy; Miely faingana dia faingana ny teniny.
He sendeth forth his command to the earth; His word runneth very swiftly.
16 Mandatsaka oram-panala tahaka ny landihazo Izy; Mampiely fanala tahaka ny lavenona Izy.
He giveth snow like wool, And scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes.
17 Mandatsaka ny havandrany ta-haka ny sombintsombin-javatra Izy; Iza no maharitra ny hatsiakany?
He casteth forth his ice like morsels; Who can stand before his cold?
18 Mamoaka ny teniny Izy ka mampiempo ireny; Mampifofofofo ny rivony Izy, dia mandriaka ny rano.
He sendeth forth his word, and melteth them; He causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.
19 Milaza ny teniny amin’ i Jakoba Izy Ary ny didiny sy ny fitsipiny amin’ Isiraely.
He publisheth his word to Jacob, His statutes and laws to Israel.
20 Tsy nanao toy izany tamin’ izay firenena hafa Izy; Ary ny fitsipiny tsy mba fantatr’ ireny. Haleloia.
He hath dealt in this manner with no other nation; And, as for his ordinances, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD!
