Salamo 19

1 Tseize’ i likerañey ty engen’Añahare, misenge o tolom-pità’eo i lañelañey.

To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. The heavens [are] recounting the honour of God, And the work of His hands The expanse [is] declaring.

2 Handro an-kandro t’ie midoan-tsaontsy, haleñ’ an-kale te mitaron-kihitse.

Day to day uttereth speech, And night to night sheweth knowledge.

3 Tsy aman-dañonañe tsy aman-tsara, tsy janjiñeñe o fiarañanaña’eo.

There is no speech, and there are no words. Their voice hath not been heard.

4 Fe manitsike ty tane toy o tali’ iareoo, pak’añ’olo-ty voatse toy o talili’eo; napo’e ama’e ao ty kivoho’ i àndroy.

Into all the earth hath their line gone forth, And to the end of the world their sayings, For the sun He placed a tent in them,

5 Manahak’ i mpañenga miakatse i akiba’ey, mitreñe hoe fanalolahy miherereake an-day.

And he, as a bridegroom, goeth out from his covering, He rejoiceth as a mighty one To run the path.

6 Hirik’angadon-dikerañ’eñe i fionjona’ey naho ty fiaria’e pak’ añ’olo’eo, vaho tsy eo ty mahafietake amy hatrovoha’ey.

From the end of the heavens [is] his going out, And his revolution [is] unto their ends, And nothing is hid from his heat.

7 Ki’e t’i Hà’ Iehovà, mañavao ty haveloñe; to ty taro’ Iehovà, mampahihitse ty sotra;

The law of Jehovah [is] perfect, refreshing the soul, The testimonies of Jehovah [are] stedfast, Making wise the simple,

8 Mahity o fañè’ Iehovào, mampirebek’ arofo; hiringiri’e ty fandilia’ Iehovà, mpañazava fihaino;

The precepts of Jehovah [are] upright, Rejoicing the heart, The command of Jehovah [is] pure, enlightening the eyes,

9 Malio ty fañeveñañe am’ Iehovà, tsy mb’ia ho modo; vantañe o fizakà’ Iehovào hene mahity;

The fear of Jehovah [is] clean, standing to the age, The judgments of Jehovah [are] true, They have been righteous — together.

10 Mahasinda te amo volamenao, eka ndra volamena maro hiringiri’e; vaho mamy te amo tantele naho papi’e miorikeo;

They are more desirable than gold, Yea, than much fine gold; and sweeter than honey, Even liquid honey of the comb.

11 mbore hatahatae’e i mpitoro’oy, ra’elahy ty tambe t’ie oriheñe.

Also — Thy servant is warned by them, 'In keeping them [is] a great reward.'

12 Ia ty mahatsikarake o hila’eo? Liovo amo hakeo mietakeo iraho.

Errors! who doth understand? From hidden ones declare me innocent,

13 Afofio amo mpitoro’oo o fisengeañeo, tsy mone hamehe ahy. Halio tahiñe amy zao iraho, vaho ho hahañe ami’ty fiolañe losotse.

Also — from presumptuous ones keep back Thy servant, Let them not rule over me, Then am I perfect, And declared innocent of much transgression,

14 Ho no’o añ’atrefa’o abey o fivolam-bavakoo, naho ty fitsakorean-troko ry Iehovà, lamilamiko naho mpijebam-piaiko.

Let the sayings of my mouth, And the meditation of my heart, Be for a pleasing thing before Thee, O Jehovah, my rock, and my redeemer!
