Salamo 21

1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Jehovah ô, ny herinao no hifalian’ ny mpanjaka; ary endrey ny haben’ ny hiravoravoany amin’ ny famonjenao!

To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. O Yahweh, in thy strength, will the king rejoice, and, in thy salvation, how greatly will he exult!

2 Ny nirin’ ny fony dia nomenao azy, ary ny nangatahin’ ny molony tsy mba nolavinao. (Sela)

The longing of his heart, hast thou given him, and, the request of his lips, hast thou not withheld. (Selah)

3 Fa notsenainao fitahiana soa izy; teo an-dohany nasianao satro-boninahitra tena volamena.

For thou wilt come to meet him, with the blessings of goodness, Thou wilt set on his head, a crown of pure gold.

4 Aina no nangatahiny taminao, dia nomenao azy izany, dia andro lava mandrakizay doria.

Life, he asked of thee, Thou hast given it him, length of days, to times age-abiding and beyond.

5 Lehibe ny voninahiny amin’ ny famonjenao; Laza sy voninahitra no nataonao taminy.

Great is his glory, in thy salvation, Honour and majesty, wilt thou lay upon him;

6 Fa nataonao ho fitahiana mandrakizay izy; ampifalinao indrindra amin’ ny tavanao izy.

For thou wilt appoint him blessings evermore, wilt cheer him with joy by thy countenance;

7 Fa ny mpanjaka matoky an’ i Jehovah, ary noho ny famindram-pon’ ny Avo Indrindra dia tsy hangozohozo izy.

For, the king, is trusting in Yahweh, and, in the lovingkindness of the Highest, shall he not be shaken.

8 Ho azon’ ny tananao ny fahavalonao rehetra; eny, ho azon’ ny tananao ankavanana ny mankahala anao;

Thy hand, will find out, all thy foes, Thine own right hand, will find out them who hate thee.

9 Hataonao tahaka ny fatana misy afo mirehitra izy amin’ ny andro hisehoanao, Jehovah handany azy amin’ ny fahatezerany, ary handevona azy ny afo.

Thou wilt make them like a furnace of fire, at the time of thy presence, —Yahweh, in his anger, will swallow them up, and there shall consume them a fire:

10 Ny zanany haringanao tsy ho eo amin’ ny tany, ary ny taranany tsy ho eo amin’ ny zanak’ olombelona;

Their fruit—out of the earth, wilt thou destroy, and their seed, from among the sons of men;

11 Fa nikasa hanisy ratsy anao izy, ka namoron-kevi-dratsy fa tsy nahefa.

For they have held out, against thee, a wicked thing, They have devised a scheme they cannot accomplish.

12 Fa hampiamboho azy ianao; ny tsipìkanao no ikendrenao ny tavany.

For thou wilt cause them to turn their back, Upon thy bow-strings, wilt thou make ready against their face.

13 Misandrata amin’ ny herinao, Jehovah ô, hihira sy hankalaza ny herinao izahay.

Be exalted, O Yahweh, in thy strength! With song and with string will we sound forth thy power.
