< Salamo 2 >

1 Nahoana no mitabataba ny jentilisa, ary misaina anoano foana ny firenena?
Why have the Gentiles been seething, and why have the people been pondering nonsense?
2 Ireo mpanjakan’ ny tany mitsangana, Ary ny mpanapaka miara-mioko hanohitra an’ i Jehovah sy ny Mesiany ka manao hoe:
The kings of the earth have stood up, and the leaders have joined together as one, against the Lord and against his Christ:
3 “Aoka hotosantsika ny famatorany, ka hariantsika hiala amintsika ny famehezany.”
“Let us shatter their chains and cast their yoke away from us.”
4 Izay mipetraka any an-danitra mihomehy, ny Tompo maneso ireo.
He who dwells in heaven will ridicule them, and the Lord will mock them.
5 Dia hiteny azy amin’ ny fahavinirany Izy ka hampangorohoro azy amin’ ny fahatezerany hoe:
Then will he speak to them in his anger and trouble them with his fury.
6 “Izaho kosa efa nanendry ny Mpanjakako Tambonin’ i Ziona, tendrombohitro masìna.”
Yet I have been appointed king by him over Zion, his holy mountain, preaching his precepts.
7 “Hilaza zava-boatendry Aho; Jehovah nilaza tamiko hoe: Zanako Hianao, Izaho niteraka anao androany.
The Lord has said to me: You are my son, this day have I begotten you.
8 Mangataha amiko, dia homeko ho lovanao ny jentilisa ary ny faran’ ny tany ho fanananao.
Ask of me and I will give to you: the Gentiles for your inheritance, and the ends of the earth for your possession.
9 Hotorotoroinao amin’ ny tehim-by izy: toy ny famaky vilany tany no hanamontsamontsananao azy.”
You will rule them with an iron rod, and you will shatter them like a potter’s vessel.
10 Ary amin’ izany dia hendre ianareo, ry mpanjaka; minoa anatra ianareo, ry mpitsaran’ ny tany.
And now, O kings, understand. Receive instruction, you who judge the earth.
11 Manompoa an’ i Jehovah amin’ ny fahatahorana, ary mifalia amin’ ny fangovitana.
Serve the Lord in fear, and exult in him with trembling.
12 Manoroha ny zanaka, fandrao ho tezitra izy, ka ho very eny an-dalana ianareo; fa vetivety dia hirehitra ny fahatezerany. Sambatra izay rehetra mialoka aminy.
Embrace discipline, lest at any time the Lord might become angry, and you would perish from the way of the just. Though his wrath can flare up in a short time, blessed are all those who trust in him.
