Salamo 76

1 Fohiñe e Iehodà ao t’i Andrianañahare; ra’elahy e Israele ao i tahina’ey.

For the end, amongst the Hymns, a Psalm for Asaph; a Song for the Assyrian. God is known in Judea: his name is great in Israel.

2 E Salema ao ty kivoho’e; e Tsiône ao ty fimoneña’e.

And his place has been in peace, and his dwelling-place in Sion.

3 Teo ty nampipeñafa’e o ana-pale nibebañeo, o kalan-defoñeo, o fibarao, naho o hotakotakeo. Selà

There he broke the power of the bows, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Pause)

4 Mireandrean-drehe, am-bolonahetse, mandikoatse ty vohitse aman-tsindroke.

You do wonderfully shine forth from the everlasting mountains.

5 Nivoloseñe o fanalolahio, ie nilañake ty rotse, ndra raik’ amo lahi-maozatseo tsy nahaisake ty fità’e.

All the simple ones in heart were troubled; all the men of wealth have slept their sleep, and have found nothing in their hands.

6 Ami’ty trevo’o, ry Andrianañahare’ Iakobe, le sindre nitsikorak’ an-drotse ty mpiningitse reke-tsoavala.

At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, the riders on horses slumbered.

7 Ihe le Ihe avao ro añeveñañe! Ia ty mahafitroatse añatrefa’o eo te ihe ro viñetse?

You are terrible; and who shall withstand you, because of your anger?

8 Nampijanjiñe’o boak’ an-dikerañe añe ty zaka, nihembañe ty tane toy vaho nitsiñe,

You did cause judgement to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,

9 ie nitroatse hizaka t’i Andrianañahare handrombake o mpisotri’ ty tane toio. Selà

when God arose to judgement, to save all the meek in heart. (Pause)

10 Toe handrenge Azo ty haboseha’ ondatio, ho sadiañe’o ty tsy niritse amo haviñerañeo.

For the inward thought of man shall give thanks to you: and the memorial of his inward thought shall keep a feast to you.

11 Mifantà am’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo, le henefo; Songa mañengà amy Mampañeveñey o mañohok’ azeo.

Vow, and pay [your vows] to the Lord our God; all that are round about him shall bring gifts, [even] to him that is terrible,

12 Aitoa’e ty kofò’ o roandriañeo; irevendreveña’ o mpanjaka’ ty tane toio.

and that takes away the spirits of princes; to him that is terrible amongst the kings of the earth.
