Salamo 132
1 Sabo-Pionjonañe Ry Iehovà, tiahio t’i Davide ty amo falovilovia’eo.
Yahweh, do not forget [King] David and all the hardships/troubles he endured!
2 Ty nifantà’e am’ Iehovà, ty nititiha’e amy Tsitongerè’ Iakobey:
He made a solemn promise to you, the mighty God whom [our ancestor] Jacob [worshiped].
3 Toe tsy hizilik’ an-kibohon- trañoko ao raho ndra hijoñe am-pandreako nivelareñe ho ahiko ao:
He said, “I will not go home, I will not [rest] on my bed,
4 Tsy homeiko roro o masokoo, tsy hidrodreke o voho-masokoo,
I will not sleep at all
5 ampara’ te hahatreavako toetse t’Iehovà, akiba ho a i Tsitongerè’ Iakobey.
until I build a place for Yahweh, a home for the mighty God whom Jacob [worshiped].”
6 Jinanji’ay e Efrata izay, tendrek’ an-kodobo’ i alay:
In Bethlehem we heard news about the sacred chest. We [went and] found it in the fields of Jearim [city, and we took it to Jerusalem].
7 Antao hionjoñe mb’an-Kivoho’e ao; antao hitalaho am-pitongoàm-pandia’e eo.
[Later we said], “Let’s go to the temple of Yahweh [in Jerusalem]; let’s worship [there] in front of the throne [where he sits].”
8 Miongaha ry Iehovà, miheova mb’am-pitofà’o mb’eo, Ihe naho i vatam-pañinan-kaozara’oy.
Yahweh, come to the place where you live eternally, to the place where your sacred chest is, to that place that shows that you are very powerful.
9 Ho lafihen-kavantañañe o mpisoro’oo, hipoñak’ an-kaehake o noro’oo.
I want/desire that the righteous behavior of your priests [will always be evident], [just like the beautiful] robes that they wear [MET], and that your people will [always] shout joyfully.
10 Ty amy Davide mpitoro’oy, ko ampitolihe’o añe ty lahara’ i noriza’oy.
You chose David to serve you [as king of Israel]; do not reject/abandon him!
11 Nifanta mahity amy Davide t’Iehovà, vaho tsy hafote’e, ty hoe: Hampiambesareko ami’ty fiambesam-panjakà’o eo ty boak’ am-pañova’o ao;
Yahweh, you made a solemn promise to David, a promise that you will not break. You said, “I will cause your descendants to rule [MTY] as kings like you.
12 lehe ambe’ o ana’oo i fañinakoy naho ty taroko anareko iareo, le hiambesatse amy fiambesam-panjaka’oy nainai’e o ana’ iareoo.
If they keep my agreement with them and obey [all] the commands that I will give them, the line of kings descended from you will never end.”
13 Toe jinobo’ Iehovà ty Tsiône, i fañiria’e ho fimoneña’ey:
Yahweh has chosen Jerusalem; he has wanted to make that city his home;
14 Etoy ty fitofako nainai’e tsy modo; atoa ty himoneñako, fa fisalalàko—
he said, “This is the city where I will live forever [DOU]; this is the place where I wanted to stay.
15 Hogogoeko ty riha’e, ho eneñeko mahakama o mahàtra’eo.
I will give to the people of Jerusalem all that they need; I will give [enough] food [even] to satisfy the poor people there.
16 Hampisikineko fandrombahañe o mpisoro’eo, hisabo an-drebeke o noro’eo.
I will cause the priests [to behave in a manner worthy of] being ones whom I have saved; [that will be as evident as the beautiful] robes that they wear [MET]; and all my people who live there will shout joyfully.
17 Ao ty hampitiriako ty tsifa’ i Davide; ao ty nañajariako failo’ i norizakoy.
There [in Jerusalem] I will cause one of David’s descendants [MET] to become a great king; he also will be my chosen king, and he will be [like a bright] lamp [MET] [that shines continually].
18 Haombeko hasalarañe o rafelahi’eo, fe hipelapelatse añambone’e eo ty sabaka’e.
I will [defeat his] enemies and cause them to be very ashamed/disgraced; but the crown that my king wears will [always] shine.”
