Salamo 79
A Psalm of Asaph. O God, nations have come into Thy inheritance, They have defiled Thy holy temple, They made Jerusalem become heaps,
2 Finaha’e ami’ty fañova’ o mpitoro’oo o voron-dikerañeo; naho ami’ty nofo’ o nigahiñ’ ama’oo o bibi’ ty tane toio.
They gave the dead bodies of Thy servants Food for the fowls of the heavens, The flesh of Thy saints For the wild beast of the earth.
3 Nadoandoañe hoe rano mb’eo mb’eo e Ierosalaime ao ty lio’ iareo; ie tsy amam-pandenteke.
They have shed their blood As water round about Jerusalem, And there is none burying.
4 Fifosà’ o am-paripari’aio zahay, mandrabioñe naho mitsikike anay o mañohok’ anaio.
We have been a reproach to our neighbours, A scorn and a derision to our surrounders.
5 Pak’ombia ry Iehovà? ho viñera’o nainai’e hao? Sikal’ombia ty mbe hibebañe hoe afo ty famarahia’o?
Till when, O Jehovah? art Thou angry for ever? Thy jealousy doth burn as fire.
6 Adobaño amo kilakila ondaty tsy mahafohiñ’Azoo ty haviñera’o; naho amo tane tsy mikanjy i tahina’oio.
Pour Thy fury on the nations who have not known Thee, And on kingdoms that have not called in Thy name.
7 Fa nabotse’ iereo t’Iakobe, naho nanoeñe tanàn-taolo ty fimoneña’e.
For [one] hath devoured Jacob, And his habitation they have made desolate.
8 Ko tiahie’o ama’ay o hakeon-drae’aio, ampisalakao anay masìka o fiferenaiña’oo, fa nafotsak’ ambane.
Remember not for us the iniquities of forefathers, Haste, let Thy mercies go before us, For we have been very weak.
9 Imbao, ry Andrianañaharem- pandrombahañ’ anay! Ty amy enge’ i tahina’oy; avotsoro, vaho saroño o hakeo’aio ty amy tahina’oy.
Help us, O God of our salvation, Because of the honour of Thy name, And deliver us, and cover over our sins, For Thy name's sake.
10 Aa vaho akore ty atao’ o kilakila ondatio ty hoe: Aia t’i Andrianañahare’ iareo? Ampahafohino o fifeheañeo ampahaisaha’ay ty famaleañe o liom-pitoro’o nadoañeo.
Why do the nations say, 'Where [is] their God?' Let be known among the nations before our eyes, The vengeance of the blood of Thy servants that is shed.
11 Ampiatrefañ’ Azo ty fitretretretre’ o mpirohio; ty ami’ty harà’ elahin-kaozara’o; hahao o tinendre havetrakeo.
Let the groaning of the prisoner come in before Thee, According to the greatness of Thine arm, Leave Thou the sons of death.
12 Le valeo im-pito añ’araña’ o mañohok’ anaio, o tivetive nafokafoka’e ama’oo ry Talè.
And turn Thou back to our neighbours, Sevenfold unto their bosom, their reproach, Wherewith they reproached Thee, O Lord.
13 Soa te hañandriañe Azo nainai’e zahay ondati’o naho añondrim-piandraza’oo, vaho hatalili’ay amy ze hene tariratse kitro añ’afe’e ty enge’o.
And we, Thy people, and the flock of Thy pasture, We give thanks to Thee to the age, To all generations we recount Thy praise!
