Salamo 45
1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Al-shoshanim. Nataon’ ny Koraïta. Maskila. Tonon-kiram-pitiavana. Mampiboiboika teny tsara ny foko; miteny aho, ka ny hilaza ny mpanjaka no teny ataoko; fanoratan’ ny faingan-tsoratra ny lelako.
For the Chief Musician; set to Shoshannim; [a Psalm] of the sons of Korah. Maschil. A Song of loves. My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter: I speak the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
2 Tsara tarehy noho ny zanak’ olombelona ianao; fahasoavana no naidina tamin’ ny molotrao; izany no nitahian’ Andriamanitra anao mandrakizay.
Thou art fairer than the children of men; grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
3 Fehezo eo am-balahanao ny sabatrao, ry ilay mahery, dia ny fiandriananao sy ny voninahitrao.
Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one, thy glory and thy majesty.
4 Ary mitangena handroso soa aman-tsara amin’ ny voninahitrao, noho ny teny marina ny fahalemem-panahim-pahamamarinana; ary hampianatra anao zava-mahatsiravina ny tananao ankavanana.
And in thy majesty ride on prosperously, because of truth and meekness [and] righteousness: and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.
5 Ny zana-tsipìkanao dia voaranitra ― Firenena maro no ringana ka hitsakitsahinao ― ka mitsatoka ao am-pon’ ny fahavalon’ ny mpanjaka.
Thine arrows are sharp; the peoples fall under thee; [they are] in the heart of the king’s enemies.
6 Ny seza fiandriananao, Andriamanitra ô, dia mandrakizay doria; tehim-pahamarinana ny tehim-panjakanao.
Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of equity is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
7 Tianao ny fahamarinana, fa halanao ny heloka; koa Andriamanitra, dia Andriamanitrao, efa nanoso-diloilo fifaliana anao mihoatra noho ny namanao.
Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
8 Miora sy hazo manitra ary kasia ny fitafianao rehetra, zava-maneno avy ao amin’ ny lapa ivory no mampifaly anao.
All thy garments [smell of] myrrh, and aloes, [and] cassia; out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made thee glad.
9 Zanakavavin’ andriamanjaka no isan’ ny malalanao; eo ankavananao no itoeran’ ny vadin’ ny mpanjaka, miravaka volamena avy any Ofira.
Kings’ daughters are among thy honourable women: at thy right hand doth stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
10 Henoy, razazavavy, dia jereo, ka atongilano ny sofinao, ary hadinoy ny firenenao sy ny tranon-drainao;
Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father’s house;
11 Raha irin’ ny mpanjaka ny hatsaran-tarehinao ― fa izy no tomponao ― dia miankohofa eo anatrehany.
So shall the king desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him.
12 Ary ny zanakavavin’ i Tyro hitondra fanatitra; eny, ny manan-karena amin’ ny vahoaka hila sitraka aminao.
And the daughter of Tyre [shall be there] with a gift; even the rich among the people shall entreat thy favour.
13 Be voninahitra ny zanakavavin’ ny mpanjaka ao anaty trano; tenona misy volamena no fitafiany.
The king’s daughter within [the palace] is all glorious: her clothing is inwrought with gold.
14 Mitafy lamba misoratsoratra izy ka entina ho ao amin’ ny mpanjaka: ny zazavavy sakaizany izay manaraka azy dia entina ao aminao.
She shall be led unto the king in broidered work: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.
15 Entina amin’ ny fifaliana sy ny firavoravoana ireny; hiditra ao an-dapan’ ny mpanjaka izy.
With gladness and rejoicing shall they be led: they shall enter into the king’s palace.
16 Ho solon-drainao ny zanakao, hotendrenao ho mpanapaka eny amin’ ny tany rehetra izy.
Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou shalt make princes in all the earth.
17 Hampahatsiaro ny anaranao hatramin’ ny taranaka fara mandimby aho. Izany rehetra izany no hideran’ ny firenena anao mandrakizay doria.
I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the peoples give thee thanks for ever and ever.
