Yahweh, I will sing forever about the ways you faithfully love me; people not yet born will hear that you faithfully [do all that you have promised].

Yahweh said, “I have made an agreement with David, whom I chose [to serve me]. I have made this solemn (agreement with/promise to) him:
4 Hajadoko pak’añ’afeafe’e o tarira’oo, naho hatroako amo hene tariratseo ty fiambesam-panjakà’o. Selà
‘I will enable various ones of your descendants to always be kings; the line of kings descended from you [MTY] will never end.’”

Yahweh, I desire that all [those beings who are in] [MTY] heaven will praise you for the wonderful things that you do, and that all your holy angels will sing about how you faithfully [do what you promise].
6 Fa ia an-dikerañe ao ty mañirinkiriñe am’ Iehovà? Ia amo ana’ o manjofakeo ty hambakambañe am’ Iehovà?
There is no one [RHQ] in heaven who can be compared with you, Yahweh. There are no angels [RHQ] in heaven who are equal to you.
7 I Andrianañahare añeveña’ ty fivori’ o noro’eo; hene ilatsa’ o miariseho’ azeo.
When your holy angels gather together, they declare that you must be revered; they say that you are more awesome than all the angels that surround your throne!
8 Ry Iehovà Andrianañahare’ i Màroy, ia ty mañirinkiriñe azo? Ry Ià maozatseo, ohoñe’ty figahiña’o.
O Yahweh, God Almighty, there is no one [RHQ] who is powerful like you are; your faithfully doing [all that you promise] is [like a cloak that] [MET] [always] surrounds you.
9 Fehe’o ty fitroña’ o riakeo, ie mitroatse o alo’eo le ampipendreñe’o.
