Salamo 85

1 Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira. Salamo nataon’ ny Koraïta. Jehovah ô, efa naneho fitia tamin’ ny taninao Hianao, Efa nampodinao Jakoba avy tamin’ ny fahababoany.

For the music director. A psalm of the descendants of Korah Lord, you have shown your kindness to your land; you have restored Jacob's prosperity.

2 Voaisotrao ny heloky ny olonao, Voasaronao ny fahotany rehetra. (Sela)

You took away your people's guilt; you forgave all their sins. (Selah)

3 Efa nampijanona ny fahatezeranao rehetra Hianao, Ary niala tamin’ ny fahatezeranao mirehitra.

You took back your fury; you turned away from your fierce anger.

4 Miverena aminay, ry Andriamanitry ny famonjena anay ô, Ary ampitsaharo ny fahatezeranao aminay.

Bring us back to you, God of our salvation! Take away your anger towards us.

5 Ho tezitra aminay mandrakizay va Hianao? Hampaharetinao hahatratra ny taranaka fara mandimby va ny fahatezeranao?

Are you going to be furious with us forever? Will you stay angry with us for all future generations?

6 Tsy hovelominao indray va izahay, Mba hifalian’ ny olonao aminao?

Won't you restore our lives so your people can find happiness in you?

7 Asehoy anay ny famindram-ponao, Jehovah ô, Ka omeo anay ny famonjenao.

Show us your trustworthy love, Lord! Give us your salvation!

8 Hihaino izay holazain’ i Jehovah Andriamanitra aho; Fa hilaza fiadanana amin’ ny olony Izy, dia amin’ ny olony masìna; Koa aoka tsy hiverina ho ao amin’ ny fahadalana ireo.

Let me hear what God has to say. God speaks peace to his people, to those who trust in him. But they must not return to their foolish ways.

9 Eny tokoa, akaikin’ izay matahotra Azy ny famonjeny, Mba hitoeran’ ny voninahitra eo amin’ ny tanintsika.

Truly God's salvation is with those who do as he says. His glorious presence will live with us in our land.

10 Mihaona ny famindram-po sy ny fahamarinana; Mifanoroka ny rariny sy ny fihavanana.

Trustworthiness and faithful love join together; goodness and peace have kissed each other.

11 Ny fahamarinana mitsimoka amin’ ny tany; Ary ny rariny mitsinjo eny an-danitra.

What is true grows up from the earth; what is right looks down from heaven.

12 Eny, Jehovah hanome ny tsara Ary ny tanintsika hahavoka-javatra.

The Lord will certainly give us all that is good, and our land will produce fine crops.

13 Ny rariny no hialoha Azy, Sady hizotra hanaraka ny diany eny an-dalana.

Truth and right go ahead of him to prepare a path for him to walk on.
