Salamo 8

1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira Al-hagitith. Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Jehovah, Tomponay ô, endrey ny voninahitry ny anaranao amin’ ny tany rehetra! nataonao eny amin’ ny lanitra ny voninahitrao.

For the Chief Musician; on an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by David. LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens!

2 Avy amin’ ny vavan’ ny ankizy madinika sy ny minono no nanorenanao hery noho ny mpandrafy Anao, mba hampanginanao ny fahavalo sy izay ta-hamaly ratsy.

From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.

3 Raha jereko ny lanitrao, izay asan’ ny rantsan-tananao, sy ny volana aman-kintana, izay noforoninao,

When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained,

4 Inona moa ny olona, no ahatsiarovanao azy? Ary ny zanak’ olombelona, no amangianao azy?

what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him?

5 Fa efa nataonao ambany kely noho Andriamanitra izy, ary efa nosatrohanao voninahitra sy fiandrianana.

For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honour.

6 Efa nampanjakainao amin’ ny asan’ ny tananao izy; ny zavatra rehetra dia efa nataonao eo ambanin’ ny tongony,

You make him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet:

7 Dia ny ondry aman’ osy sy ny omby rehetra, ary ny bibidia koa,

All sheep and cattle, yes, and the animals of the field,

8 Mbamin’ ny voro-manidina sy ny hazandrano any an-dranomasina, izay mandeha amin’ ny lalan-dranomasina.

the birds of the sky, the fish of the sea, and whatever passes through the paths of the seas.

9 Jehovah Tomponay ô, endrey ny voninahitry ny anaranao amin’ ny tany rehetra!

LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
