Salamo 10
1 Akore te Ihe mijohañe añe, ry Iehovà? Ino ty ietaha’o an-tsan-kasotriañe?
Why, Yahweh, do you stand far off? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?
2 Am-pirengevohañe ty añoridaña’ o raty tserekeo o rarakeo; f’ie tsepahe’ o fikitroha’eo avao.
Because of their arrogance, wicked people chase the oppressed; but please let the wicked be trapped by their own schemes that they have devised.
3 Sengè’ i tsivokatsey o fañirian-tro’eo, tata’e ty fatitiañe, naho inje’e t’Iehovà.
For the wicked person boasts of his deepest desires; he blesses the greedy and insults Yahweh.
4 Ty tsivokatse amy fitoeboran-tarehe’ey, tsy mitsoek’ aze; ty hoe avao ro fitsakorea’e: Tsy eo ze o Andrianañahare zao.
The wicked man has a raised face; he does not seek God. He never thinks about God because he does not care at all about him.
5 Miraorao nainai’e o sata’eo; kanao mitiotiotse ambone, tsy am-pahaisaha’e eo o fizakà’oo, le fonga ibohaboha’e o malaiñ’ azeo.
He is secure at all times, but your righteous decrees are too high for him; he snorts at all his enemies.
6 Hoe ty aereñeren-tro’e: Tsy hasiotse iraho, ndra an-tsa an-tsa tsy ho ampoheke ka.
He says in his heart,” I will never fail; throughout all generations I will not meet adversity.”
7 Pea hateràñe naho katramo naho fisenge-hery i falie’ey; kilily naho haloloañe ty ambane’ i famele’ey.
His mouth is full of cursing and deceptive, harmful words; his tongue injures and destroys.
8 Itoboha’e o fivoñonañe an-drovao amo fietahañeo hamonoa’e ty vantañe; jilojilovem-pihaino’e ty tsy amam-pañimba.
He waits in ambush near the villages; in the secret places he murders the innocent; his eyes look for some helpless victim.
9 Ie mitingañe añetak’ ao hoe liona ami’ty fitsifira’e; mitampoñe hitsepake ty rarake, hiambotrak’ ami’ty mpisotry, hikozozota’e amy harato’ey.
He lurks in secret like a lion in the thicket; he lies in wait to catch the oppressed. He catches the oppressed when he pulls in his net.
10 Mibotreke re, mifinake; vaho mikorovok’ amy figorea’ey i pìtso-pañolotsey.
His victims are crushed and beaten down; they fall into his strong nets.
11 Hoe re an-troke ao: Fa nandikofan’ Añahare, fa naeta’e ty lahara’e; tsy ho vazoho’e ka.
He says in his heart, “God has forgotten; he covers his face; he will not bother to look.”
12 Miongaha ry Iehovà; ry Andrianañahare, zonjò ty Fità’o; ko amoea’o o mpirekeo.
Arise, Yahweh! Lift up your hand, God! Do not forget the oppressed.
13 Akore te ati’ o tsivokatseo t’i Andrianañahare, ie manao an-tro’e ao ty hoe: Tsy ipaia’e?
Why does the wicked man reject God and say in his heart, “You will not hold me accountable”?
14 Toe vazoho’o; eka fa oni’o ty ampoheke naho ty embetse le ho valeam-pità’o, ihe ro iatoa’ ty tsy aman’imba; vaho mpañimba ty bode-rae.
You have taken notice, for you always see the one who inflicts the misery and sorrow. The helpless entrusts himself to you; you rescue the fatherless.
15 Pozaho ty sira’ o tsivokatseo naho i piaroteñey, karaofo ty haratia’e ie tsy nilefe tsikaraheñe.
Break the arm of the wicked and evil man. Make him account for his evil deeds, which he thought you would not discover.
16 Mpanjaka nainai’e t’Iehovà; fa mongotse an-tane’e eo o fifeheañeo.
Yahweh is King forever and ever; the nations are driven out of his land.
17 Ry Iehovà, fa jinanji’o ty halali’ o tretram-poo; hafatraro ty arofo’ iareo atokilaño o ravembia’oo;
Yahweh, you have heard the needs of the oppressed; you strengthen their heart, you listen to their prayer;
18 Hañomea’o to o bode-raeo naho o forekekeñeo, tsy hampinevenevera’ ondaty an-tane atoio ka.
You defend the fatherless and the oppressed so that no man on the earth will cause terror again.
