Salamo 2

1 Ino ty fidabasida’ o kilakila ondatio, naho ty fikililia’ ondatio raha tsy vente’e.

Why are the nations so violently moved, and why are the thoughts of the people so foolish?

2 Mijohañe o mpanjaka’ ty tane toio, naho mitrao-kinia o mpifeheo hiatreatre am’ Iehovà naho i Noriza’ey, manao ty hoe:

The kings of the earth have taken their place, and the rulers are fixed in their purpose, against the Lord, and against the king of his selection, saying,

3 Antao handrafadrafatse o talirandra’ iareoo, le hahimpan-tika o rohi’ iareoo.

Let their chains be broken, and their cords taken from off us.

4 Miankahake i mpiambesatse an-dindiñey; mitsikìke iareo t’i Talè.

Then he whose seat is in the heavens will be laughing: the Lord will make sport of them.

5 Fa ho trevohe’e an-keloke, vaho hampinevenevere’e am-pifombo’e:

Then will his angry words come to their ears, and by his wrath they will be troubled:

6 Toe izaho ty nañoriñe ty Mpanjakako e Tsiône ao amy vohiko miavakey.

But I have put my king on my holy hill of Zion.

7 Sokireko ho lily: hoe t’Iehovà amako: Anako irehe, anindroany ty nampiareñako azo.

I will make clear the Lord's decision: he has said to me, You are my son, this day have I given you being.

8 Mihalalia amako le hampandovaeko Azo o fifeheañeo, naho ho fanaña’o o olon-taneo.

Make your request to me, and I will give you the nations for your heritage, and the farthest limits of the earth will be under your hand.

9 Ho pozahe’o am-bodam-by; Hampijeñajeñahe’e hoe siniharam-panao valàñe-tane.

They will be ruled by you with a rod of iron; they will be broken like a potter's vessel.

10 Aa le mahihira ry mpanjakao; Mimetea oke ry mpizaka’ ty tane toio.

So now be wise, you kings: take his teaching, you judges of the earth.

11 Toroño am-pañeveñañe t’Iehovà, vaho mirebeha am-pineveneverañe;

Give worship to the Lord with fear, kissing his feet and giving him honour,

12 Ondroho i Anakey tsy mone hiviñera’e, vaho hihomak’ an-dalañe ey nahareo; fa mete hisolebatse aniany ty fifombo’e. Hene haha ze mitsolok’ ama’e.

For fear that he may be angry, causing destruction to come on you, because he is quickly moved to wrath. Happy are all those who put their faith in him.
