Salamo 60
1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira Al-sho-shanedoth. Miktama nataon’ i Davida hampianarana, fony izy nanafika an’ i Mesopotamia sy Arama-zoba tamin’ ny niverenan’ i Joaba ka namelezany ny Edomita roa arivo amby iray alin-dahy teo amin’ ny lohasahan-tsira. Andriamanitra ô, efa nanary sy nampihahaka anay Hianao; efa tezitra Hianao, velombelomy izahay.
To the Overseer. — 'Concerning the Lily of Testimony,' a secret treasure of David, to teach, in his striving with Aram-Naharaim, and with Aram-Zobah, and Joab turneth back and smiteth Edom in the valley of Salt — twelve thousand. O God, Thou hadst cast us off, Thou hadst broken us — hadst been angry! — Thou dost turn back to us.
2 Efa nampihorohoro ny tany Hianao ka namaky azy; amboary izay rava aminy, fa mihozongozona izy.
Thou hast caused the land to tremble, Thou hast broken it, Heal its breaches, for it hath moved.
3 Efa nampahita ny olonao zava-tsarotra Hianao, ary efa nampisotro anay divay mampiraikiraiky.
Thou hast shewn Thy people a hard thing, Thou hast caused us to drink wine of trembling.
4 Efa notoloranao faneva ny matahotra Anao, hatsangany noho ny fahamarinana. (Sela)
Thou hast given to those fearing thee an ensign. To be lifted up as an ensign Because of truth. (Selah)
5 Mba hahafahan’ ny malalanao, dia vonjeo amin’ ny tananao ankavanana aho, ka valio.
That Thy beloved ones may be drawn out, Save [with] Thy right hand, and answer us.
6 Andriamanitra niteny tamin’ ny fahamasinany hoe: hifaly Aho ka hizara an’ i Sekema; ary ny lohasahan’ i Sokota horefesiko;
God hath spoken in His holiness: I exult — I apportion Shechem, And the valley of Succoth I measure,
7 Ahy Gileada, Ahy koa Manase; ary aron’ ny lohako Efraima tehim-panjakako Joda;
Mine [is] Gilead, and mine [is] Manasseh, And Ephraim [is] the strength of my head, Judah [is] my lawgiver,
8 Tavin-dranoko fanasana Moaba; Edoma no anipazako ny kapako; mihobia noho ny amiko, ry Filistia.
Moab [is] my pot for washing, over Edom I cast my shoe, Shout, concerning me, O Philistia.
9 Iza no hitondra ahy ho any an-tanàna mafy? iza no hitarika ahy ho any Edoma?
Who doth bring me [to] a city of bulwarks? Who hath led me unto Edom?
10 Tsy Hianao va, Izay efa nanary anay, Andriamanitra ô. Sady tsy nivoaka niaraka tamin’ ny antokon’ ny miaramilanay, Andriamanitra ô?
Is it not Thou, O God? hast Thou cast us off? And dost Thou not go forth, O God, with our hosts!
11 Vonjeo amin’ ny mpandrafy izahay; fa zava-poana ny famonjena ataon’ ny olona.
Give to us help from adversity, And vain [is] the deliverance of man.
12 Andriamanitra no haherezantsika; fa Izy no hanitsakitsaka ny fahavalontsika.
In God we do mightily, And He treadeth down our adversaries!
