Salamo 58
1 Toe mitaron-kavantañañe hao t’ie mitsiñe? mizaka an-kahiti’e hao, ry ana’ ondatio?
For the end. Destroy not: by David, for a memorial. If ye do indeed speak righteousness, [then] do ye judge rightly, ye sons of men.
2 Hete, te mone hatsivokarañe ty itoloña’areo an-troke ao; lanjae’ areo amy taney o fitavanam-pità’areoo.
For ye work iniquities in [your] hearts in the earth: your hands plot unrighteousness.
3 Amoean-kovin-drene’e ty lo-tsereke, mañariok’ añe vata’e miboloañe ty mpivolam-bande.
Sinners have gone astray from the womb: they go astray from the belly: they speak lies.
4 Hoe vorem-pandrefe’ala ty vore’ iareo, manahake o meren-kareñeñe manentsen-tsofiñeo,
Their venom is like [that] of a serpent; as [that] of a deaf asp, and that stops her ears;
5 tsy hahatsanoña’e ty fikoràn’ambiasa ndra ty pandrombo-jiny bey.
which will not hear the voice of charmers, nor [heed] the charm prepared skillfully by the wise.
6 Ry Andrianañahare, rofoto am-bava’e ao o nife’eo, atrankaño ty famotsi’ o liona tora’eo, ry Iehovà
God has crushed their teeth in their mouth: God has broken the cheek-teeth of the lions.
7 Angao hisaok’ añe iereo hoe rano vohitse; Lonik’abey te ho zoeñe domoke o ama-paleo t’ie mañohatse o fale’eo.
They shall utterly pass away like water running through: he shall bend his bow till they shall fail.
8 Lonike t’ie hanahake ty harevo’ o sifotse mihamodo te misitseo, hoe ajaja miboloañe tsy mahatrea i àndroy.
They shall be destroyed as melted wax: the fire has fallen and they have not seen the sun.
9 Aolo te hahamae valàñe o afom-patikeo, le fonga ho faohe’e an-talìo ty leñe naho ty mibebañe,
Before your thorns feel the white thorn, he shall swallow you up as living, as in his wrath.
10 Hirebeke o vañoñeo te mahaisake i famaleañey, ho sasà’e an-dio’ o tsivokatseo o fandia’eo
The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance of the ungodly: he shall wash his hands in the blood of the sinner.
11 Vaho hanao ty hoe ondatio: Toe tsy ho po-tambe o vantañeo; toe eo t’i Andrianañahare mizaka an-tane atoy.
And a man shall say, Verily then there is a reward for the righteous: verily there is a God that judges them in the earth.
