Salamo 58
1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Al-tasheth. Miktama nataon’ i Davida. Moa ny tsi-fitenenana va ataonareo ho filazana ny marina? Mitsara mahitsy va ianareo, ry zanak’ olombelona?
Unto the end. May you not destroy. Of David, with the inscription of a title. If, truly and certainly, you speak justice, then judge what is right, you sons of men.
2 Tsy izany, fa ny fonareo no amoronanareo ny ratsy; mandanja ny fandozan’ ny tananareo etỳ an-tany ianareo.
For, even in your heart, you work iniquity. Your hands construct injustice on the earth.
3 Mivily hatrany am-bohoka ny ratsy fanahy; mania hatrany an-kibo izy ka miteny lainga.
Sinners have become foreigners from the womb; they have gone astray from conception. They have been speaking falsehoods.
4 Misy poizina tahaka ny an’ ny menarana aminy; eny, tahaka ny vipera marenina izay manentsin-tadiny izy,
Their fury is similar to that of a serpent; it is like a deaf asp, who even blocks her ears,
5 Ka tsy mihaino ny feon’ ny mpanao ody, na dia izay mpahay ody indrindra aza.
who will not listen to the voice of charmers, nor even to the enchanter who chants wisely.
6 Andriamanitra ô, torotoroy ny nifiny eo am-bavany; omboty ny vazan’ ny liona tanora, Jehovah ô.
God will crush their teeth within their own mouth. The Lord will break the molars of the lions.
7 Aoka ho ritra tahaka ny ranotrambo izy; raha atraniny ny zana-tsipìkany, dia aoka ho tapa-doha ireny;
They will come to nothing, like water flowing away. He has aimed his bow, while they are being weakened.
8 Aoka ho tahaka ny lelosy izay mihalevona eny am-pandehanana izy; Aoka ho tahaka ny zaza-vakimanta izay tsy mahita masoandro izy.
Like wax that flows, they will be carried away. Fire has fallen upon them, and they will not see the sun.
9 Dieny tsy mbola mafanan’ ny afon-tsilo ny vilaninareo, aoka ho entin’ ny tafio-drivotra ireny, na ny lena na ny maina.
Before your thorns could know the brier, he consumes them alive, as if in rage.
10 Hifaly ny marina, raha mahita ny famaliana; hanasa ny tongony amin’ ny ran’ ny ratsy fanahy izy;
The just one will rejoice when he sees vindication. He will wash his hands in the blood of the sinner.
11 Dia hiteny ny olona ka hanao hoe: misy valiny tokoa ho an’ ny marina; misy tokoa Andriamanitra Izay mitsara etỳ ambonin’ ny tany.
And man will say, “If the just one is fruitful, then, truly, there is a God judging them on earth.”
