Salamo 97
1 Jehovah no Mpanjaka, aoka ho faly ny tany; Aoka ho ravoravo ny nosy maro.
Adonai reigns! Let the earth rejoice! Let the multitude of islands be glad!
2 Rahona sy aizim-pito no manodidina Azy Fahamarinana sy fitsarana no fanorenan’ ny seza fiandrianany.
Clouds and darkness are around him. Righteousness and mishpat ·justice· are the foundation of his throne.
3 Misy afo mialoha Azy ka mandevona ny fahavalony manodidina.
A fire goes before him, and burns up his adversaries on every side.
4 Mahazava izao tontolo izao ny helany; Mahita izany ny tany ka mihorohoro.
His lightning lights up the world. The earth sees, and trembles.
5 Ny tendrombohitra miempo tahaka ny savoka eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, Dia eo anatrehan’ ny Tompon’ ny tany rehetra.
The mountains melt like wax at the presence of Adonai, at the presence of 'Adon [Lord] of the whole earth.
6 Ny lanitra maneho ny fahamarinany, Ary ny firenena rehetra mahita ny voninahiny.
The heavens declare his righteousness. All the peoples have seen his kavod ·weighty glory·.
7 Aoka ho menatra izay rehetra manompo sarin-javatra voasokitra sy miarahaba tena ny amin’ ny andriamani-tsi-izy; Miankohofa eo anoloan’ i Jehovah ianareo andriamanitra rehetra.
Let all them be shamed who abad ·serve· engraved images, who boast in their idols. Hawa ·Bow low, prostrate· to worship him, all you angels!
8 Ziona mandre ka faly; Ary ravoravo ny zanakavavin’ i Joda Noho ny fitsaranao, Jehovah ô.
Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking] sh'ma ·heard obeyed· and was glad. The daughters of Judah [Praised] rejoiced, because of your judgments, Adonai.
9 Fa Hianao, Jehovah ô, no avo indrindra ambonin’ ny tany rehetra; Efa avo ambonin’ ny andriamanitra rehetra Hianao.
For you, Adonai, are most high above all the earth. You are exalted far above all deities.
10 Hianareo izay tia an’ i Jehovah, mankahalà ny ratsy; Miaro ny fanahin’ ny olony masìna Izy Ary mamonjy azy amin’ ny tanan’ ny ratsy fanahy.
You who 'ahav ·affectionately love· Adonai, hate evil. He preserves the souls of his saints. He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.
11 Ny fahazavana no voafafy ho an’ ny marina, Ary ny fifafiana ho an’ ny mahitsy fo.
Light is sown for the upright, and gladness for the upright in heart.
12 Mifalia amin’ i Jehovah, ry olo-marina, Ary miderà ny anarany masìna.
Be glad in Adonai, you upright people! Yadah ·Extend hands in thankful praise· to his holy Name.
