Salamo 90
1 Ry Talè, Ihe ni-fimoneña’ay amo tarira’ay iabio.
“BOOK IV. A prayer of Moses, the man of God.” LORD! thou hast been our dwelling-place In all generations!
2 Ie mboe tsy toly o vohitseo mboe tsy tsinene’o ty tane toy naho ty voatse toy, boak’ an-kaehae hambo’e añe pak’ an-kitro añ’afe’e añe, Ihe ro Andrianañahare.
Before the mountains were brought forth, Or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting thou art God!
3 Ampolie’o mb’an-debok’ ao ondatio ami’ty hoe: Mimpolia ry ana’ondaty.
But man thou turnest again to dust, And sayst, “Return, ye children of men!”
4 Fa arivo taoñe am-pivazohoa’o ty andro raike toe hoe omale te nihelañe, ie manahake ty fiambenañe an-kaleñe.
For a thousand years are, in thy sight, As yesterday when it is past, And as a watch in the night.
5 Sinao’o añe hoe an-tsorotombake iereo, le miròtse, f’ie maraiñe, le hoe ahetse mipitsipitsike.
Thou carriest him away as with a flood; He is a dream; In the morning he springeth up like grass,
6 Mioboñoboñe te maraindraiñe mbore mitombo, ie hariva miheatse vaho miforejeje.
Which flourisheth and shooteth up in the morning, And in the evening is cut down, and withered.
7 Toe mongore’ ty haviñera’o zahay, mampangebahebak’ anay ty fifombo’o.
For we are consumed by thine anger, And by thy wrath are we destroyed.
8 Fa napo’o añatrefa’o o tahi’aio, am-pireandrean-dahara’o eo o hakeo’ay mietakeo.
Thou settest our iniquities before thee, Our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.
9 Fonga mihelañe ami’ty fifombo’o o andro’aio; fa nagado’ay hoe fiselekaiñañe o tao’aio.
By reason of thine anger all our days vanish away; We spend our years like a thought.
10 Ty andro’ o tao’aio le fitompolo taoñe; mete ho valo-polo, t’ie maozatse; fe hamokorañe naho fangoakoahañe avao ty enge’e, migadoñe aniany, vaho mitiliñ’añe.
The days of our life are threescore years and ten, And, by reason of strength, may be fourscore years: Yet is the pride of them weariness and sorrow; For it vanisheth swiftly, and we fly away.
11 Ia ty mahafohiñe ty haozara’ o haviñera’oo? naho ty fañeveñañe mañeva Azo ty ami’ty fifombo’o?
Yet who attendeth to the power of thine anger? Who with due reverence regardeth thine indignation?
12 Aa le anaro zahay hañiake o andro’aio, hahazoa’ay arofo mahihitse.
Teach us so to number our days, That we may apply our hearts to wisdom!
13 Mimpolia ry Iehovà! Ombia? iferenaiño o mpitoro’oo
Desist, O LORD! How long—? Have compassion upon thy servants!
14 Eneño an-kafatraram-pikokoa’o te maraindray zahay, hirebeha’ay naho hifalea’ay amo hene andro’aio.
Satisfy us speedily with thy mercy, That we may rejoice and be glad all our days!
15 Ampifaleo mira amo andro nampisotria’o anaio, naho amo taoñe nahaisaha’ay haratiañeo.
Make us glad according to the time in which thou hast afflicted us; According to the years in which we have seen adversity!
16 Fa halange amo mpitoro’oo o fitoloña’oo, naho ty enge’o amo ana’ iareoo.
Let thy deeds be known to thy servants, And thy glory to their children!
17 Ho aman-tika ty fañisoha’ i Talè Andrianañahare’ay; ajadoño ty tolom-pità’ay; eka aoreño o satam-pità’aio.
Let the favor of the LORD our God be upon us, And establish for us the work of our hands; Yea, the work of our hands, establish thou it!
