Salamo 2

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

Why have nations tumultuously assembled? And do peoples meditate vanity?

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

Station themselves do kings of the earth, And princes have been united together, Against Jehovah, and against His Messiah:

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

'Let us draw off Their cords, And cast from us Their thick bands.'

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

He who is sitting in the heavens doth laugh, The Lord doth mock at them.

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

Then doth He speak unto them in His anger, And in His wrath He doth trouble them:

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

'And I — I have anointed My King, Upon Zion — My holy hill.'

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

I declare concerning a statute: Jehovah said unto me, 'My Son Thou [art], I to-day have brought thee forth.

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

Ask of Me and I give nations — thy inheritance, And thy possession — the ends of earth.

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

Thou dost rule them with a sceptre of iron, As a vessel of a potter Thou dost crush them.'

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

And now, O kings, act wisely, Be instructed, O judges of earth,

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

Serve ye Jehovah with fear, And rejoice with trembling.

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.

Kiss the Chosen One, lest He be angry, And ye lose the way, When His anger burneth but a little, O the happiness of all trusting in Him!
