Salamo 123

1 Ampiandraeko ama’o o masokoo, ry Mpiambesatse an-dikerañe ao.

Yahweh, I look up toward you, up to heaven, from where you rule.

2 Hehe te manahake ty fañentean’ ondevo ty fitàn-talè’e, naho ty mason’ anak’ ampatañe ty fitàn-drakemba’e, ro iandràm-pihainon-tika t’Iehovà Andrianañaharen-tika, ampara’ te tretreze’e.

Like servants ask [IDM] their masters [for what they need] and like maids ask t their mistresses [for what they need], we ask you, Yahweh our God, [for what we need], and we ask you to be merciful to us.

3 Ferenaiño zahay ry Iehovà, tretrezo, fa loho natsafen-tsirìka.

Yahweh, be very merciful [DOU] to us because [our enemies] have acted very contemptuously toward us.

4 Etsake ty fanivativà’ o mpiaiñ’ añoleñañeo o fiai’aio, vaho ty inje’ o mpirengevokeo.

Rich people have made fun of us for a long time, and proud [people] who have (oppressed/acted cruelly toward) us have acted toward us as though we were worthless.
