< 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!
For the chief musician. A psalm of David. The king rejoices in your strength, Yahweh! How greatly he rejoices in the salvation you provide!
2 Ny nirin’ ny fony dia nomenao azy, ary ny nangatahin’ ny molony tsy mba nolavinao. (Sela)
You have given him his heart's desire and have not held back the request of his lips. (Selah)
3 Fa notsenainao fitahiana soa izy; teo an-dohany nasianao satro-boninahitra tena volamena.
For you bring him rich blessings; you placed on his head a crown of purest gold.
4 Aina no nangatahiny taminao, dia nomenao azy izany, dia andro lava mandrakizay doria.
He asked you for life; you gave it to him; you gave him long days forever and ever.
5 Lehibe ny voninahiny amin’ ny famonjenao; Laza sy voninahitra no nataonao taminy.
His glory is great because of your victory; you have bestowed on him splendor and majesty.
6 Fa nataonao ho fitahiana mandrakizay izy; ampifalinao indrindra amin’ ny tavanao izy.
For you grant him lasting blessings; you make him glad with the joy of your presence.
7 Fa ny mpanjaka matoky an’ i Jehovah, ary noho ny famindram-pon’ ny Avo Indrindra dia tsy hangozohozo izy.
For the king trusts in Yahweh; through the covenant faithfulness of the Most High he will not be moved.
8 Ho azon’ ny tananao ny fahavalonao rehetra; eny, ho azon’ ny tananao ankavanana ny mankahala anao;
Your hand will seize all your enemies; your right hand will seize those who hate you.
9 Hataonao tahaka ny fatana misy afo mirehitra izy amin’ ny andro hisehoanao, Jehovah handany azy amin’ ny fahatezerany, ary handevona azy ny afo.
At the time of your anger, you will burn them up as in a fiery furnace. Yahweh will consume them in his wrath, and the fire will devour them.
10 Ny zanany haringanao tsy ho eo amin’ ny tany, ary ny taranany tsy ho eo amin’ ny zanak’ olombelona;
You will destroy their offspring from the earth and their descendants from among the human race.
11 Fa nikasa hanisy ratsy anao izy, ka namoron-kevi-dratsy fa tsy nahefa.
For they intended evil against you; they conceived a plot with which they will not succeed!
12 Fa hampiamboho azy ianao; ny tsipìkanao no ikendrenao ny tavany.
For you will turn them back; you will draw your bow before them.
13 Misandrata amin’ ny herinao, Jehovah ô, hihira sy hankalaza ny herinao izahay.
Be exalted, Yahweh, in your strength; we will sing and praise your power.
