Salamo 138
1 Sabo’ i Davide Andriañeko irehe ry Iehovà, an-kaliforan-troke, ho saboeko añatrefa’ o jomakeo.
Yahweh, I thank you with all my inner being. I sing to praise you in front of [the idols of false] gods [to ridicule/belittle them].
2 Mibotreke mb’amy anjomba’o miavakey raho naho mibango ty tahina’o ty amy fiferenaiña’o naho ty hatò’o, amy te nonjone’o i tsara’oy, i tahina’oy ambone’ ze he’e.
I bow down while I look towards your sacred temple, and I thank you [MTY] because you faithfully love [us] and faithfully do all that you have promised. You have shown that both you [MTY] and what you have promised to do are greater than anything else.
3 Nanoiñe ahiko irehe amy andro nitokavekoy; nosihe’o an-kaozarañe ty fiaiko.
On the day when I called out to you, you answered me; you enabled me to be strong and brave.
4 Hañandriañ’ Azo ze hene mpanjaka’ ty tane toy, r’Iehovà, naho janjiñe’iereo o entam-palie’oo.
Yahweh, [some day] all the kings of this earth will praise you, because they will have heard what you have said.
5 Ho saboe’ iereo o lala’ Iehovào, fa ra’elahy ty enge’ Iehovà.
They will sing about what you have done; they will sing and say that you are very great.
6 Ndra te onjoneñe t’Iehovà, mbe haoñe’e ty mireke, le arofoana’e o mpirengevokeo.
Yahweh, you are supreme, but you take care of people [who are considered to be] unimportant. And you know what proud people [are doing], even though they are far away [from you and think that you do not see them].
7 Ndra t’ie manjenge añivo’ o faloviloviañeo, Ihe ro mameloñe ahiko, atorakitsi’o mb’ami’ty haboseha’ o rafelahikoo ty fità’o, vaho mandrombak’ahy ty fità’o havana.
When I am in the midst of [many] troubles/difficulties, you save/rescue me. With your hand/power [MTY] you rescue me from my enemies who are angry at me.
8 Ho henefe’ Iehovà ty nisafirie’e ho ahy, nainai’e, ry Iehovà ty fiferenaiña’o, ko ado’o o tolom-pità’oo.
Yahweh, you will do for me everything that you promised; you faithfully love [us] forever. Finish what you started to do [for us, your Israeli people.]
