< Salamo 97 >
1 Jehovah no Mpanjaka, aoka ho faly ny tany; Aoka ho ravoravo ny nosy maro.
The Lord is king, let the earth rejoice: let her many isles be glad.
2 Rahona sy aizim-pito no manodidina Azy Fahamarinana sy fitsarana no fanorenan’ ny seza fiandrianany.
Clouds and darkness are round about him, justice and right are the base of his throne.
3 Misy afo mialoha Azy ka mandevona ny fahavalony manodidina.
Fire goes before him, and blazes around his steps,
4 Mahazava izao tontolo izao ny helany; Mahita izany ny tany ka mihorohoro.
his lightnings illumine the world: the earth quakes at the sight.
5 Ny tendrombohitra miempo tahaka ny savoka eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, Dia eo anatrehan’ ny Tompon’ ny tany rehetra.
Mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth.
6 Ny lanitra maneho ny fahamarinany, Ary ny firenena rehetra mahita ny voninahiny.
The heavens proclaim his justice, all nations behold his 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.
Shamed are all image-worshippers, who make a boast of their idols. All the gods bow before him.
8 Ziona mandre ka faly; Ary ravoravo ny zanakavavin’ i Joda Noho ny fitsaranao, Jehovah ô.
Zion is glad at the tidings, the towns of Judah rejoice because of your judgments, Lord.
9 Fa Hianao, Jehovah ô, no avo indrindra ambonin’ ny tany rehetra; Efa avo ambonin’ ny andriamanitra rehetra Hianao.
For you are most high over all the earth, greatly exalted above all gods.
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.
The Lord loves those who hate evil, he guards the lives of the faithful: from the hand of the wicked he saves them.
11 Ny fahazavana no voafafy ho an’ ny marina, Ary ny fifafiana ho an’ ny mahitsy fo.
Light arises for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart.
12 Mifalia amin’ i Jehovah, ry olo-marina, Ary miderà ny anarany masìna.
Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous: give thanks to his holy name.
