< Salamo 81 >

1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Al-gitith. Nataon’ i Asafa. Mihobia ho an’ Andriamanitra herintsika; manaova feo fifaliana ho an’ Andriamanitr’ i Jakoba.
[For the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. By Asaph.] Sing aloud to God, our strength. Make a joyful shout to the God of Jacob.
2 Asandrato ny hira, ka velezo ny ampongatapaka, ary tendreo ny lokanga mahafinaritra mbamin’ ny valiha.
Raise a song, and bring here the tambourine, the pleasant lyre with the harp.
3 Tsofy ny anjomara amin’ ny volana; eny, amin’ ny feno-volana, dia amin’ ny andro firavoravoantsika.
Blow the trumpet at the New Moon, at the full moon, on our feast day.
4 Fa lalàna ho an’ ny Isiraely izany, ary fitsipik’ Andriamanitr’ i Jakoba.
For it is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.
5 Notendreny ho vavolombelona eo amin’ i Josefa izany, raha nandeha namely ny tany Egypta Izy; nandre teny tsy fantatro aho.
He appointed it in Joseph for a testimony, when he went out over the land of Egypt, I heard a language that I did not know.
6 Nampiala ny sorony tamin’ ny entana Aho; nitsahatra tsy nitondra sobiky ny tànany.
"I removed his shoulder from the burden. His hands were freed from the basket.
7 Fony azom-pahoriana ianao, dia niantso Ahy, ka namonjy anao Aho; namaly anao tao amin’ ny fiafenan’ ny kotrokorana Aho, ary nizaha toetra anao tao amin’ ny ranon’ i Meriba. (Sela)
You called in trouble, and I delivered you. I answered you in the secret place of thunder. I tested you at the waters of Meribah." (Selah)
8 Mihainoa, ry oloko, dia hambarako aminao; enga anie hihaino Ahy ianao, ry Isiraely.
"Hear, my people, and I will testify to you, Israel, if you would listen to me.
9 Aza asiana andriamani-kafa eo aminao; ary aza mivavaka amin’ ny andriamanitry ny firenena hafa.
There shall be no strange god in you, neither shall you worship any foreign god.
10 Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrao, Izay nitondra anao niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta; atanatanao ny vavanao, dia hofenoiko.
I am YHWH, your God, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11 Fa tsy nihaino ny feoko ny oloko; ary ny Isiraely tsy nankato Ahy;
But my people did not listen to my voice. Israel desired none of me.
12 Ka dia navelako hanaraka ny ditry ny fony Izy, handehanany manaraka ny fisainan’ ny tenany.
So I let them go after the stubbornness of their hearts, that they might walk in their own counsels.
13 Enga anie ka hihaino Ahy ny oloko, dia handeha amin’ ny lalako ny Isiraely;
Oh that my people would listen to me, that Israel would walk in my ways.
14 Vetivety dia hampietry ny fahavalony Aho, ka hamerina ny tanako hamely ny rafiny;
I would soon subdue their enemies, and turn my hand against their adversaries.
15 Izay mankahala an’ i Jehovah dia hikoy aminy, ka dia haharitra mandrakizay ny andron’ ny oloko;
The haters of YHWH would cringe before him, and their punishment would last forever.
16 Ary hampihinana azy vary tsara indrindra Izy; eny, tantely avy amin’ ny vatolampy no hamokisako anao.
And he would have fed him with the finest wheat, and satisfied you with honey from the rock."
