Salamo 72
1 Nataon’ i Solomona.
Of Solomon. Give the king, O God, your own spirit of justice your spirit of right to the son of the king,
2 Hitsara ny olonao amin’ ny fahamarinana izy. Ary ny malahelolonao amin’ ny fahitsiana.
that with right he may judge your people, and your downtrodden ones with justice.
3 Ny tendrombohitra hahavokatra fiadanana ho an’ ny olona, eny, ny havoana koa amin’ ny fahamarinana.
May the mountains bear weal for the people, and the hills yield fruits of justice.
4 Hitsara ny olona ory izy sy hamonjy ny zanaky ny mahantra ary hanorotoro ny mpampahory.
The weak may he help to their rights, may he save the sons of the needy and crush the oppressor in pieces.
5 Hatahotra anao ny olona, raha mbola maharitra koa ny masoandro sy ny volana hatramin’ ny taranaka fara mandimby.
May he live as long as the sun, while the moon shines – for ages and ages.
6 Hidina tahaka ny ranonorana amin’ ny saha voajinja izy, tahaka ny ranonorana mivatravatra amin’ ny tany.
May he be like the rain on the meadow, like showers that water the earth.
7 Ny marina hitrebona amin’ ny androny, ary ho be ny fiadanana mandra-paha-tsy hisy volana intsony.
In his days may justice flourish, and welfare abound, till the moon be no more.
8 Ary hanjaka hatramin’ ny ranomasina ka hatramin’ ny ranomasina izy, ary hatramin’ ny ony ka hatramin’ ny faran’ ny tany.
May he reign from ocean to ocean, from the river to the ends of the earth.
9 Ny mponina any an-efitra handohalika eo anatrehany; ary ny fahavalony hilelaka ny vovoka.
May his foes bow down before him, his enemies lick the dust.
10 Ny mpanjakan’ i Tarsisy sy ny nosy handoa hetra; ny mpanjakan’ i Sheba sy Seba hanatitra fanomezana.
May tribute be rendered by kings of the isles and of Tarshish; may gifts be brought by the kings of Sheba and Seba.
11 Ary ny mpanjaka rehetra hiankohoka eo anatrehany; ny firenena rehetra hanompo azy.
May all kings fall prostrate before him, and all nations yield him their service.
12 Fa hamonjy ny mahantra mitaraina izy sy ny ory tsy manan-kamonjy;
For he saves the poor when he cries, the helpless and the downtrodden.
13 Hiantra ny reraka sy ny malahelo izy ary hamonjy ny fanahin’ ny malahelo.
He pities the weak and the poor, he saves the lives of the poor.
14 Hanavotra ny fanahiny amin’ ny fampahoriana sy ny fanaovana an-keriny izy; ary ho zava-dehibe eo imasony ny ràny.
He redeems them from wrong and from violence, for dear is their blood in his sight.
15 Dia ho velona ireny ka hanome azy volamena avy any Sheba, ary hanao fifonana ho azy mandrakariva, izy, ary isan’ andro no hisaorany azy.
Long may he live; and may gold of Sheba be given him; prayer, too, be made for him ceaselessly, all the day long may men bless him.
16 Hahavoka-bary betsaka ny tany na dia any an-tampon’ ny tendrombohitra aza; hirondrona tahaka ny any Libanona ny fahavokarany; ary ny ao an-tanàna hidokadoka tahaka ny ahitra amin’ ny tany.
May the land have abundance of corn, to the tops of the hills may it wave. May the fruit thereof flourish like Lebanon, may men spring from the city like grass of the earth.
17 Ho mandrakizay ny anarany; raha mbola maharitra koa ny masoandro, dia hanorobona ny anarany; ary izy ho fitahiana ny olona; ny firenena rehetra hanao azy ho sambatra.
May his name be blessed forever, may his fame endure as the sun. May all nations envy his blessedness, all tribes of the earth call him happy.
18 Isaorana anie Jehovah Andriamanitra, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely; Izy irery ihany no manao fahagagana;
Blest be the Lord God, Israel’s God, who alone does wonders;
19 Ary isaorana mandrakizay anie ny anarany malaza; ary aoka ny tany rehetra ho henika ny voninahiny. Amena dia Amena.
And blest be forever his glorious name. Let all the earth be filled with his glory. Amen and Amen.
20 Tapitra ny fivavak’ i Davida, zanak’ i Jese.
Here end the prayers of David, son of Jesse.
