Salamo 42
1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Maskila. Nataon’ ny Koraïta. Tahaka ny diera mihanahana maniry ny rano an’ ony no anirian’ ny fanahiko Anao, Andriamanitra ô.
For the chief musician. A maschil of the sons of Korah. As the deer pants after streams of water, so I thirst for you, God.
2 Mangetaheta an’ Andriamanitra ny fanahiko, dia Andriamanitra velona; Rahoviana no ho tonga aho ka hiseho eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra?
I thirst for God, for the living God, when will I come and appear before God?
3 Ny ranomasoko no fiahiko andro aman’ alina, amin’ ny anaovany ahy mandrakariva hoe: Aiza izay Andriamanitrao?
My tears have been my food day and night, while my enemies are always saying to me, “Where is your God?”
4 Izao zavatra izao no hotsarovako, ka haidiko ato anatiko ny fanahiko, dia ny nandrosoako niaraka tamin’ ny maro, sy ny nitarihako azy ho any an-tranon’ Andriamanitra, nanao feo mihoby sy midera, dia olona maro izay nitandrina ny andro firavoravoana.
These things I call to mind as I pour out my soul: how I went with the throng and led them to the house of God with the voice of joy and praise, a multitude celebrating a festival.
5 Nahoana no mitanondrika ianao, ry fanahiko, ka mitoloko ato anatiko? Manantenà an’ Andriamanitra ianao, fa mbola hidera Azy ihany aho noho ny famonjen’ ny tavany.
Why are you bowed down, my soul? Why are you upset within me? Hope in God, for again I will praise him who is my salvation.
6 Andriamanitro ô, mitanondrika ato anatiko ny fanahiko; Izany no ahatsiarovako Anao eo amin’ ny tanin’ i Jordana sy amin’ ireo Hermona ary amin’ ny tendrombohitra Mizara.
My God, my soul is bowed down within me, therefore I call you to mind from the land of the Jordan, from the three peaks of Mount Hermon, and from the hill of Mizar.
7 Ny lalina miantso ny lalina noho ny firohondrohon’ ny riananao; ny onjanao rehetra sy ny alon-dranonao efa nanafotra ahy.
Deep calls to deep at the noise of your waterfalls; all your waves and your billows have gone over me.
8 Jehovah handidy ny famindram-pony nony andro, ary ho amiko nony alina ny fihirana Azy, dia vavaka amin’ Andriamanitry ny aiko.
Yet Yahweh will command his covenant faithfulness in the daytime; in the night his song will be with me, a prayer to the God of my life.
9 Hoy izaho amin’ Andriamanitra Vatolampiko: nahoana no nanadino ahy Hianao? nahoana no mandeha mijoretra aho noho ny fampahorian’ ny fahavaloko?
I will say to God, my rock, “Why have you forgotten me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?”
10 Toy ny zavatra mahatorotoro ny taolako no fandatsan’ ny fahavaloko ahy, ka hoy izy isan’ andro: Aiza izay Andriamanitrao?
As with a sword in my bones, my adversaries rebuke me, while they always say to me, “Where is your God?”
11 Nahoana no mitanondrika ianao, ry fanahiko? ary nahoana no mitoloko ato anatiko ianao? Manantenà an’ Andriamanitra, fa mbola hidera Azy ihany aho, Izy no famonjena ny tavako sady Andriamanitro.
Why are you bowed down, my soul? Why are you upset within me? Hope in God, for again I will praise him who is my salvation and my God.
