1Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence,
1Dia tahaka ny fandevon'ny afony tapa-kazo maina sy ny fampangotraky ny afo ny rano mba hampahafantatra ny fahavalonao ny anaranao ka hangovitra eo anoloanao ny jentilisa.
2As when the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries, that the nations may tremble at thy presence!
2Raha nanao zava-mahatahotra izay tsy nantenainay Hianao, dia nidina, ka nihorohoro teo anoloanao ny tendrombohitra.
3When thou didst terrible things which we looked not for, thou camest down, the mountains flowed down at thy presence.
3Fa hatrizay hatrizay dia tsy mbola ren'ny olona, na nohenoiny, Na hitan'ny masony, Izay Andriamanitra miasa ho an'ny miandry Azy afa-tsy Hianao. [Na: niempo]
4For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.
4Mitsena izay mifaly hanao ny marina Hianao, dia izay mahatsiaro Anao amin'ny lalanao; indro, Hianao dia tezitra, ary hita fa meloka izahay; Hatramin'ny ela dia izany no toetray, ka dia hovonjena va? [Na: Miantra][Na: ary efa nanota]
5Thou meetest him that rejoiceth and worketh righteousness, those that remember thee in thy ways: behold, thou art wroth; for we have sinned: in those is continuance, and we shall be saved.
5Fa samy efa tahaka ny olo-maloto izahay rehetra, ary tahaka ny lamba mihosin-drà ny fahamarinanay rehetra; Malazo tahaka ny ravina izahay rehetra, ary ny helokay mipaoka anay tahaka ny rivotra,
6But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
6Tsy misy miantso ny anaranao, na mifoha hifikitra aminao; fa efa nanafina ny tavanao taminay Hianao ka nandevona anay noho ny helokay.
7And there is none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.
7Fa ankehitriny, Jehovah ô, rainay Hianao; izahay dia tanimanga, ary Hianao no mpanefy anay, ary asan'ny tananao izahay rehetra.
8But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.
8Aza dia tezitra mafy loatra, Jehovah ô. Ary aza dia mahatsiaro heloka mandrakizay; masina Hianao, tsinjovy, fa olonao izahay rehetra.
9Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for ever: behold, see, we beseech thee, we are all thy people.
9Tonga efitra ireo tanànanao masina, Eny, tany lavavolo Ziona, ary efa lao Jerosalema.
10Thy holy cities are a wilderness, Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
10Ny tranonay masina sady mendrika, Izay nideran'ny razanay Anao, dia voadotry ny afo, ary rava ny zavatray mahafinaritra rehetra.Ary mbola mahatsindry fo amin'izany zavatra izany ihany va Hianao, Jehovah ô? Hangina va Hianao ka hampahory anay mafy loatra?
11Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised thee, is burned up with fire: and all our pleasant things are laid waste.
11Ary mbola mahatsindry fo amin'izany zavatra izany ihany va Hianao, Jehovah ô? Hangina va Hianao ka hampahory anay mafy loatra?
12Wilt thou refrain thyself for these things, O LORD? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore?
