Salamo 19
1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Ny lanitra mitory ny voninahitr’ Andriamanitra; ary ny habakabaka manambara ny asan’ ny tànany.
“To the chief musician, a psalm of David.” The heavens relate the glory of God; and the expanse telleth of the works of his hands.
2 Ny andro samy miteny amin’ ny andro mandimby azy, ary ny alina samy manolo-pahalalana amin’ ny alina mandimby azy.
Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge.
3 Tsy misy teny na fiteny anefa; tsy re izay feony.
There is no speech, there are no words, their voice is not heard.
4 Efa nivoaka ho any amin’ ny tany rehetra ny famolainany, ary ny teniny dia mihatra amin’ ny faran’ izao rehetra izao. Trano-lay ho an’ ny masoandro no nataony teo aminy;
[But] their melody extendeth through all the earth, and to the end of the world their words. For the sun hath he set a tabernacle among them;
5 Ary ny masoandro dia tahaka ny mpampaka-bady mivoaka avy ao an-trano fandriany; sady mifaly tahaka ny lehilahy matanjaka mihazakazaka amin’ ny alehany izy.
And he goeth out as a bridegroom from his chamber, he is glad like a strong man to run his course;
6 Any amin’ ny faravodilanitra ny fiposahany, ary ny alehany dia hatramin’ ny farany koa, ka tsy misy takona amin’ ny hafanany.
From the end of the heavens is his going forth, and his circuit is unto their ends: and there is nothing hidden from his heat.
7 Tsy misy tsiny ny lalàn’ i Jehovah, mamelombelona ny fanahy; mahatoky ny teni-vavolombelon’ i Jehovah, mahahendry ny kely saina.
The law of the Lord is perfect, quieting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
8 Mahitsy ny fandidian’ i Jehovah, mahafaly ny fo; madio ny didin’ i Jehovah, mampahazava ny maso.
The precepts of the Lord are upright, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is clear, enlightening the eyes.
9 Madio ny fahatahorana an’ i Jehovah, maharitra mandrakizay; marina ny fitsipik’ i Jehovah, eny, mahitsy avokoa.
The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring for ever: the ordinances of the Lord are the truth, they are just altogether.
10 Irina noho ny volamena ireny, eny, noho ny tena volamena betsaka aza; ary mamy noho ny tantely, eny, noho ny tantely mitete avy amin’ ny tohotra.
They are those which are to be desired more than gold, and much fine gold; and they are sweeter than honey and the dropping of honeycomb.
11 Ary ny mpanomponao dia hazavain’ ireny; amin’ ny fitandremana azy misy valiny lehibe.
Moreover thy servant is admonished by them: in keeping them there is great reward.
12 Raha ny fahatsontsana, dia iza re no mahalala izany? ataovy tsy manan-tsiny aho ny amin’ izay ota tsy fantatra.
Who can guard against errors? from secret [faults] do thou cleanse me.
13 Arovy ny mpanomponao tsy ho azon’ ny ota sahisahy; aoka tsy hanapaka ahy izany; dia ho marina tokoa aho ka tsy hanan-tsiny ny amin’ izay fahadisoana lehibe.
Also from presumptuous [sins] withhold thy servant; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be blameless, and I shall be clear from any great transgression.
14 Aoka ny tenin’ ny vavako sy ny fisainan’ ny foko samy hankasitrahana eo imasonao, Jehovah ô, Vatolampiko sy Mpanavotra ahy.
May the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable before thee, O Lord, my Rock, and my Redeemer.
