¹Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.

¹[Fiantsoana ny Isiraelita hifaly amin'Andriamanitra noho ny nitondràny azy nivoaka avy tany Egypta] Ho an'ny mpiventy hira. Al-gitith. Nataon'i Asafa. Mihobia ho an'Andriamanitra herintsika; manaova feo fifaliana ho an'Andriamanitr'i Jakoba.

²Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the psaltery.

²Asandrato ny hira, ka velezo ny ampongatapaka, ary tendreo ny lokanga mahafinaritra mbamin'ny valiha.

³Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day.

³Tsofy ny anjomara amin'ny volana; eny, amin'ny feno-volana, dia amin'ny andro firavoravoantsika.

⁴For this was a statute for Israel, and a law of the God of Jacob.

⁴Fa lalàna ho an'ny Isiraely izany, ary fitsipik'Andriamanitr'i Jakoba.

⁵This he ordained in Joseph for a testimony, when he went out through the land of Egypt: where I heard a language that I understood not.

⁵Notendreny ho vavolombelona eo amin'i Josefa izany, raha nandeha namely ny tany Egypta Izy; nandre teny tsy fantatro aho.

⁶I removed his shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from the pots.

⁶Nampiala ny sorony tamin'ny entana Aho; nitsahatra tsy nitondra sobiky ny tànany.

⁷Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder: I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah.

⁷Fony azom-pahoriana ianao, dia niantso Ahy, ka namonjy anao Aho; namaly anao tao amin'ny fiafenan'ny kotrokorana Aho, ary nizaha toetra anao tao amin'ny ranon'i Meriba.

⁸Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken unto me;

⁸Mihainoa, ry oloko, dia hambarako aminao; enga anie hihaino Ahy ianao, ry Isiraely.

⁹There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any strange god.

⁹Aza asiana andriamani-kafa eo aminao; ary aza mivavaka amin'ny andriamanitry ny firenena hafa.

¹⁰I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

¹⁰Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrao, Izay nitondra anao niakatra avy tany amin'ny tany Egypta; atanatanao ny vavanao, dia hofenoiko.

¹¹But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me.

¹¹Fa tsy nihaino ny feoko ny oloko; ary ny Isiraely tsy nankato Ahy;

¹²So I gave them up unto their own hearts' lust: and they walked in their own counsels.

¹²Ka dia navelako hanaraka ny ditry ny fony Izy, handehanany manaraka ny fisainan'ny tenany.

¹³Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways!

¹³Enga anie ka hihaino Ahy ny oloko, dia handeha amin'ny lalako ny Isiraely;

¹⁴I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their adversaries.

¹⁴Vetivety dia hampietry ny fahavalony Aho, ka hamerina ny tanako hamely ny rafiny;

¹⁵The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him: but their time should have endured for ever.

¹⁵Izay mankahala an'i Jehovah dia hikoy aminy, ka dia haharitra mandrakizay ny andron'ny oloko;Ary hampihinana azy vary tsara indrindra Izy; eny, tantely avy amin'ny vatolampy no hamokisako anao.

¹⁶He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee.

¹⁶Ary hampihinana azy vary tsara indrindra Izy; eny, tantely avy amin'ny vatolampy no hamokisako anao.
