Salamo 84
1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Al-hagitith. Salamo nataon’ ny Koraïta. Endrey ny hatsaran’ ny tabernakelinao, Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, ô!
To the chief Musician. Upon the Gittith. Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm. How amiable are thy tabernacles, O Jehovah of hosts!
2 Manina sady vonton’ alahelo ny kianjan’ i Jehovah ny fanahiko; ny foko sy ny nofoko mihoby an’ Andriamanitra velona.
My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of Jehovah; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.
3 Eny, ny tsikirity mahita trano, ary ny sidintsidina mahita akany ho azy hametrahany ny zanany. Dia ny alitaranao, Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro ô, Mpanjakako sy Andriamanitro.
Yea, the sparrow hath found a house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she layeth her young, thine altars, O Jehovah of hosts, my King and my God.
4 Sambatra izay mitoetra ao an-tranonao; hidera Anao mandrakariva izy. (Sela)
Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be constantly praising thee. (Selah)
5 Sambatra izay olona manan-kery avy aminao; ao am-pony ny lalana;
Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee, — they, in whose heart are the highways.
6 Raha mandeha mamaky ny lohasaha Baka izy, Dia ataony misy loharano izany, ary ny loha-orana manarom-pitahiana azy.
Passing through the valley of Baca, they make it a well-spring; yea, the early rain covereth it with blessings.
7 Miampy hery eny am-pandehanana izy; samy miseho eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra any Ziona izy rehetra.
They go from strength to strength: [each one] will appear before God in Zion.
8 Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny maro ô, henoy ny fivavako; mandrenesa ry Andriamanitr’ i Jakoba ô. (Sela)
Jehovah, God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
9 Andriamanitra, Ampinganay ô, tsinjovy ka jereo ny tavan’ ny voahosotrao.
Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
10 Fa ny indray andro eo an-kianjanao dia tsara noho ny arivo; aleoko mipetraka eo amin’ ny tokonam-baravaran’ ny tranon’ Andriamanitra, toy izay mitoetra ao an-dain’ ny ratsy fanahy.
For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God, than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 Fa Masoandro sy Ampinga Jehovah Andriamanitra; fahasoavana sy voninahitra no homen’ i Jehovah; tsy hiaro zava-tsoa amin’ izay mandeha amin’ ny fahitsiana izy.
For Jehovah Elohim is a sun and shield: Jehovah will give grace and glory; no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
12 Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro ô, sambatra izay olona matoky Anao.
Jehovah of hosts, blessed is the man that confideth in thee!
