Salamo 48
1 Jabahinake t’Iehovà, vaho rengeñe mb’añ’abo; an-drovan’ Añaharen-tikañe, i vohi’e miavakey.
A song or Psalme committed to the sonnes of Korah. Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praysed, in the Citie of our God, euen vpon his holy Mountaine.
2 Fanjàka an-toe’e eo, ty hafalea’ ty tane toy, ty vohi’ i Tsiône añ’ila’e avaratse ey, ty rova’ i Mpanjaka hinakinakey.
Mount Zion, lying Northwarde, is faire in situation: it is the ioy of the whole earth, and the Citie of the great King.
3 I Andrianañahare an-kijoli’ey, ty nampandrèndreke t’ie ro fipalirañe.
In the palaces thereof God is knowen for a refuge.
4 Hehe, nifanontoñe o mpanjakao, nitrao-pionjoñe mb’etoañe,
For lo, the Kings were gathered, and went together.
5 Nioni’ iereo; le nilatsa; nangetraketrake, vaho nitriban-day.
When they sawe it, they marueiled: they were astonied, and suddenly driuen backe.
6 Namihiñe iareo ty fihondrahondra, ninivonivotse hoe ampela mitsongo.
Feare came there vpon them, and sorowe, as vpon a woman in trauaile.
7 I tiok’ atiñanañey ty ampivaletrahe’o o lakam-bein-Tarsiseo.
As with an East winde thou breakest the shippes of Tarshish, so were they destroyed.
8 Hambañe amy jinanjin-tikañey ty nionin-tika an-drova’ Iehovà’ i Màroy, an-drovan’ Añaharentikañe ao; ee t’ie hajadon’ Añahare tsy ho modo nainai’ey. Selà
As we haue heard, so haue we seene in the citie of the Lord of hostes, in the Citie of our God: God will stablish it for euer. (Selah)
9 Nitsakorea’ay ty fiferenaiña’o ry Andrianañahare añivo’ i anjomba’o miavakey.
We waite for thy louing kindnes, O God, in the middes of thy Temple.
10 Manahake i tahina’oy ry Andrianañahare, ty fandrengeañe Azo, pak’ añ’olo’ ty tane toy; lifo-kavantañañe ty fità’o havana.
O God, according vnto thy Name, so is thy prayse vnto the worlds end: thy right hand is full of righteousnes.
11 Ampifaleo i vohitse Tsiôney, ampirebeho o anak’ ampela’ Iehodào ty amo fizakà’oo.
Let mount Zion reioyce, and the daughters of Iudah be glad, because of thy iudgements.
12 Mañariaria amy Tsiône, ikariokarioho, volilio o fitilik-abo’eo,
Compasse about Zion, and goe round about it, and tell the towres thereof.
13 Hehe o kijoli’eo, rangao o fitalakesañ’abo’eo; hahatalilia’o i tariratse mandimbey.
Marke well the wall thereof: beholde her towres, that ye may tell your posteritie.
14 Izay t’i Andrianañahare, Andrianañaharen-tikañey, nainai’e donia. Ie ty hiaolo antikañe pak’an-kavilasy.
For this God is our God for euer and euer: he shall be our guide vnto the death.
