Salamo 68
1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Tonon-kira. Aoka hitsangana Andriamanitra, ka hiely ny fahavalony; ary aoka izay mankahala Azy handositra ny tavany.
“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” Let God arise, and his enemies are scattered, And they who hate him flee before him!
2 Tahaka ny fanely setroka no fanelinao azy; tahaka ny fiempon’ ny savoka eo anoloan’ ny afo no aoka hahalevonan’ ny ratsy fanahy eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra.
As smoke is dispersed, so thou dispersest them; As wax melteth before the fire, So perish the wicked before the face of God.
3 Fa ny marina mifaly; eny, ravoravo eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra izy ka faly tokoa.
But the righteous are glad and rejoice in his presence, Yea, they exult exceedingly.
4 Mihirà ho an’ Andriamanitra, mankalazà ny anarany; manamboara lalana ho an’ izay mitaingina mamaky ny efitra Jehovah no anarany ary mifalia eo anatrehany.
Sing unto God; sing praises to his name! Prepare a way for him who rideth through the desert! Jehovah is his name; be joyful in his presence!
5 Rain’ ny kamboty sy Mpanome rariny ny mpitondratena Andriamanitra, ao amin’ ny fonenany masìna.
The father of the fatherless, and the protector of the widow, Is God in his holy habitation.
6 Andriamanitra mampitoetra an-trano izay irery tena; mamoaka ny mpifatotra ho amin’ ny fanambinana Izy; fa ny maditra hitoetra amin’ ny tany karankaina.
God causeth the forsaken to dwell in houses; He leadeth forth to prosperity them that are bound; But the rebellious shall dwell in a barren land.
7 Andriamanitra ô, raha nandeha teo alohan’ ny olonao Hianao ka namaky ny efitra, (Sela)
O God! when thou didst go before thy people, When thou didst march through the wilderness. (Pause)
8 Dia nihorohoro ny tany, ary nitaitaika ny lanitra, tamin’ ny fanatrehan’ Andriamanitra, na iry Sinay iry aza tamin’ ny fanatrehan’ Andriamanitra, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely.
The earth quaked, and the heavens dropped at the presence of God; This Sinai trembled at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9 Ranonoram-pitahiana no nalatsakao tamin’ ny lovanao, Andriamanitra ô; ary raha kotra izy, dia novelombelominao.
Thou, O God! didst send a plentiful rain; Thou didst strengthen thy wearied inheritance.
10 Ny olonao tamàn-toerana teo; mamboatra ho an’ ny ory araka ny fahasoavanao Hianao, Andriamanitra ô.
Thy people established themselves in the land; Thou, O God! in thy goodness, didst prepare it for the needy!
11 Ny Tompo manome ny teny; ary ny vehivavy mpilaza soa dia antokony lehibe.
The Lord gave the song of victory Of the maidens publishing glad tidings to the mighty host.
12 Ireo mpanjaka be miaramila dia vaky mandositra; ary ny vehivavy izay mitoetra ao an-trano no mizara ny babo.
“The kings with their armies have fled, —have fled! And the matron at home divideth the spoil.
13 Raha mandry eo amin’ ny vala ianareo, dia ho tahaka ny ela-boromailala miravaka volafotsy, ary ny volony miravaka volamena tsara
Truly ye may repose yourselves in the stalls, Like the wings of a dove covered with silver, And her feathers with shining gold.”
14 Raha aelin’ ny Tsitoha eo ny mpanjaka maro, dia latsaka ny oram-panala ao Zalmona.
When the Most High destroyed the kings in the land, It was white [[with their bones]] like Salmon.
15 Tendrombohitr’ Andriamanitra ny tendrombohitr’ i Basana. Tendrombohitra maro tampona ny tendrombohitr’ i Basana.
Ye lofty hills, ye hills of Bashan, Ye many-topped hills, ye hills of Bashan,
16 Ry tendrombohitra maro tampona, nahoana ianareo no mihendry ny tendrombohitra izay tian’ Andriamanitra hitoerany? eny, hitoetra ao mandrakizay Jehovah.
Why frown ye, ye many-topped hills, At the hill in which God is pleased to dwell, In which Jehovah will dwell for ever?
17 Ny kalesin’ Andriamanitra dia roa alina, eny, arivo arivo; ny Tompo no eo aminy; Sinay dia eo amin’ ny itoerana masìna.
The chariots of God are myriads, yea, thousands of thousands; The Lord is in the midst of them, as upon Sinai, in the sanctuary.
18 Efa niakatra ho any amin’ ny avo Hianao ka mitondra babo; efa nandray fanomezana teo amin’ ny olombelona Hianao ― eny, teo amin’ ny maditra aza, ― mba hitoeran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitra any.
Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast led captive the vanquished, Thou hast received gifts among men, Even the rebellious, that here thou mightst dwell, O LORD God!
19 Isaorana anie ny Tompo Izay mitondra ny entan-tsika isan’ andro isan’ andro, eny, Andriamanitra Izay famonjena antsika. (Sela)
Praised be the Lord daily! When we are heavy-laden, the Mighty One is our help.
20 Andriamanitra no Andriamanitry ny famonjena ho antsika; ary an’ i Jehovah Tompo ny fanafahana amin’ ny fahafatesana.
Our God is a God of salvation; From the Lord Jehovah cometh deliverance from death.
21 Fa Andriamanitra mamely mafy ny lohan’ ny fahavalony, dia ny tampon-doha lava volo an’ izay mandroso amin’ ny fahadisoany.
But God smiteth the head of his enemies, Even the hairy crowns of those who go on in their iniquity.
22 Lazain’ ny Tompo hoe: hampody ny any Basana Aho; hampody ny amin’ ny ranomasina lalina Aho,
“I will bring them back,” saith the Lord, “from Bashan; I will bring them back from the deep sea;
23 Mba hampihosenanao rà ny tongotrao, ary ho anjaran’ ny lelan’ ny amboanao ny fahavalo.
That thy foot may be dipped in their blood, That thy dogs may drink the blood of thine enemies.”
24 Efa hita ny fandehananao, Andriamanitra ô, dia ny fandehanan’ Andriamanitro, Mpanjakako, ao amin’ ny fitoerana masìna.
We have seen thy procession, O God! The procession of my God, my king, to his sanctuary!
25 Mialoha ny mpihira, ary manaraka ny mpitendry valiha, eo afovoan’ ny zatovovavy mively ampongatapaka.
The singers go before, the minstrels follow, Amidst damsels playing on timbrels.
26 Misaora an’ Andriamanitra eo amin’ ny fiangonana, eny, misaora ny Tompo, ianareo ary amin’ ny loharanon’ ny Isiraely.
Praise ye God in your assemblies; Praise the Lord, all ye from the fountain of Israel!
27 Indry Benjamina kely, mpanapaka azy, ny antokon’ ny mpanapaka ny Joda, ny mpanapaka ny Zebolona sy ny mpanapaka ny Naftaly.
Here is Benjamin, the youngest, and his leaders; The chiefs of Judah, and their band; The chiefs of Zebulon, and the chiefs of Naphtali.
28 Andriamanitrao no nampahery anao; Ry Andriamanitra Izay miasa ho anay ô, asehoy ny herinao.
Thy God has ordained thy strength, [[O Israel!]] Show forth thy might, O God! thou who hast wrought for us!
29 Noho ny tempolinao eo an-tampon’ i Jerosalema, no hitondran’ ny mpanjaka maro fanatitra ho Anao.
Because of thy temple in Jerusalem Shall kings bring presents to thee.
30 Teneno mafy ny biby eny anaty zozoro sy ny fivorian’ ny ombilahy mbamin’ ireo vahoaka zanak’ omby, dia izay miankohoka manatitra anja-bolafotsy aelezo ny olona tia ady
Rebuke the wild beast of the reeds, The multitude of bulls with the calves of the nations, So that they shall cast themselves down with masses of silver; Scatter thou the nations that delight in war!
31 Ho avy ny tremalahin’ i Egypta; Etiopia halaky hananty tanana amin’ Andriamanitra.
Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall haste with outstretched hands to God.
32 Ry fanjakana ambonin’ ny tany, mihirà ho an’ Andriamanitra; mankalazà ny Tompo, (Sela)
Ye kingdoms of the earth, sing unto God; Sing praises to Jehovah;
33 Ilay mitaingina ny lanitry ny lanitra izay hatry ny fahagola; Indro, mamoaka ny feony Izy, dia feo mahery.
To him who rideth upon the ancient heaven of heavens! Behold, he uttereth his voice, his mighty voice!
34 Ekeo ho an’ Andriamanitra ny hery; ambonin’ ny Isiraely ny voninahiny, ary ny heriny any amin’ ny lanitra.
Give glory to God, Whose majesty is in Israel, and whose might is in the clouds!
35 Mahatahotra Hianao, Andriamanitra ô, ao amin’ ny fitoeranao masìna; Andriamanitry ny Isiraely no manome hery sy tanjaka ho an’ ny olona. Isaorana anie Andriamanitra.
Terrible art thou, O God! from thy sanctuary! The God of Israel giveth strength and power to his people. Praised be God!
