¹Hallelujah! Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

¹[Ny fivadibadihan'ny Isiraely ampitahaina amin'ny fahamarinan'Andriamanitra] Haleloia. Miderà an'i Jehovah, fa tsara Izy, Fa mandrakizay ny famindram-pony.

²Who can utter the mighty acts of Jehovah? [who] can shew forth all his praise?

²Iza no mahalaza ny asa lehibe ataon'i Jehovah, Na mahatonona ny fiderana Azy rehetra?

³Blessed are they that keep justice, [and] he that doeth righteousness at all times.

³Sambatra izay mitandrina ny mety Ka manao ny marina mandrakariva.

⁴Remember me, O Jehovah, with [thy] favour toward thy people; visit me with thy salvation:

⁴Jehovah ô, tsarovy aho araka ny fankasitrahanao ny olonao; Vangio amin'ny famonjenao aho,

⁵That I may see the prosperity of thy chosen ones, that I may rejoice in the joy of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.

⁵Hahitako ny soa azon'ny voafidinao, Hifaliako amin'ny fifalian'ny firenenao, Hiravoravoako miaraka amin'ny lovanao.

⁶We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.

⁶Efa nanota izahay mbamin'ny razanay, Efa nanao izay meloka sy ratsy izahay.

⁷Our fathers in Egypt considered not thy wondrous works; they remembered not the multitude of thy loving-kindnesses; but they rebelled at the sea, at the Red Sea.

⁷Ny razanay tany Egypta tsy mba nandinika ny fahagagana nataonao; Tsy mba nahatsiaro ny habetsahan'ny famindram-ponao ireny, Fa niodina teo amoron-dranomasina, Dia teo amoron'ny Ranomasina Mena

⁸Yet he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make known his might.

⁸Kanefa namonjy azy ihany Izy noho ny anarany, Mba hampahafantarany ny asany lehibe.

⁹And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up; and he led them through the deeps as through a wilderness.

⁹Dia noteneniny mafy ny Ranomasina Mena, ka tonga maina iny; Ary nitondra azy nita ny rano lalina tahaka ny efitra Izy,

¹⁰And he saved them from the hand of him that hated [them], and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

¹⁰Namonjy azy tamin'ny tanan'ny mpandrafy Izy Ary nanavotra azy tamin'ny tanan'ny fahavalo.

¹¹And the waters covered their oppressors: there was not one of them left.

¹¹Dia nosaronan'ny rano kosa ny rafiny. Ka tsy nisy niangana na dia iray akory aza.

¹²Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.

¹²Dia nino ny teniny izy Ka nihira ny fiderana Azy.

¹³They soon forgot his works; they waited not for his counsel:

¹³Nalaky nanadino ny asany izy ka tsy niandry ny saina hatolony,

¹⁴And they lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted ùGod in the desert.

¹⁴Fa fatra-pila izy tany an-efitra, Sady naka fanahy an'Andriamanitra tany an-tany foana.

¹⁵Then he gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.

¹⁵Dia nomeny azy izay nilainy, Kanefa nampahahiaziny kosa izy.[Na: ny fanahiny]

¹⁶And they envied Moses in the camp, [and] Aaron, the saint of Jehovah.

¹⁶Dia nialona an'i Mosesy tany an-toby Izy ireo Sady nialona an'i Arona, olo-masin'i Jehovah.

¹⁷The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram;

¹⁷Nisokatra ny tany, dia nitelina an'i Datana Ka nanarona ny antokon'i Abìrama.[Heb. ny fiangonany]

¹⁸And fire was kindled in their company; a flame burned up the wicked.

¹⁸Dia nisy afo nirehitra tamin'ny antokony; Lelafo no nandoro ny ratsy fanahy.[Heb. ny fiangonany]

¹⁹They made a calf in Horeb, and did homage to a molten image;

¹⁹Nanao ombilahy kely tany Horeba izy Ka niankohoka teo anoloan'ny sarin-javatra an-idina.

²⁰And they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.

²⁰Ary ny voninahiny dia natakalony Sarin'ny omby homana ahitra.

²¹They forgot ùGod their Saviour, who had done great things in Egypt,

²¹Nohadinoiny Andriamanitra, Mpamonjy azy, Izay efa nanao zava-dehibe tany Egypta,

²²Wondrous works in the land of Ham, terrible things by the Red Sea.

²²Dia fahagagana tany amin'ny tanin'i Hama sy zava-mahatahotra teo amin'ny Ranomasina Mena.

²³And he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses, his chosen, stood before him in the breach, to turn away his fury, lest he should destroy [them].

²³Ary nikasa handringana azy Izy, Raha tsy Mosesy voafidiny no nandroso hijoro tamin'ny banga teo anatrehany hampiala ny fahatezerany mba tsy handringanany azy.[Heb. nilaza]

²⁴And they despised the pleasant land; they believed not his word,

²⁴Ary nanamavo ny tany mahafinaritra ireo Sady tsy mba nino ny teniny,

²⁵But murmured in their tents: they hearkened not unto the voice of Jehovah.

²⁵Fa nimonomonona tany an-dainy Ka tsy nihaino ny feon'i Jehovah.

²⁶And he lifted up his hand to them, that he would make them fall in the wilderness;

²⁶Dia nanandratra ny tànany taminy Izy, Fa hampiampatrampatra azy any an-efitra

²⁷And that he would make their seed fall among the nations, and disperse them through the countries.

²⁷Ary ny taranany kosa any amin'ny jentilisa, Ary hampihahakahaka azy any amin'ny tany maro Izy.

²⁸And they joined themselves unto Baal-Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead;

²⁸Nikambana tamin'i Bala-peora ireo ka nihinana ny fanatitra ho an'ny maty,

²⁹And they provoked [him] to anger with their doings; and a plague broke out among them.

²⁹Dia nampahatezitra an'i Jehovah tamin'ny nataony, Ka dia namely azy tampoka ny areti-mandringana.

³⁰Then stood up Phinehas and executed judgment, and the plague was stayed;

³⁰Fa nitsangana nandroso Finehasa ka nanao fitsarana; Dia nitsahatra ny areti-mandringana.

³¹And that was reckoned unto him for righteousness, from generation to generation, for evermore.

³¹Ary nisaina ho fahamarinany izany Hatramin'ny taranaka fara mandimby mandrakizay.

³²And they moved him to wrath at the waters of Meribah, and it went ill with Moses on their account;

³²Nampahatezitra an'i Jehovah teo anilan'ny ranon'i Meriba ireo, Ka nisy nanjo an'i Mosesy noho ny nataon'ireo;

³³For they provoked his spirit, so that he spoke unadvisedly with his lips.

³³Fa niodina tamin'ny Fanahin'i Jehovah ireo, ka dia nihoa-bava Mosesy.

³⁴They did not destroy the peoples, as Jehovah commanded them;

³⁴Tsy naringany ny firenena Izay nasain'i Jehovah naringany;

³⁵But they mingled with the nations, and learned their works;

³⁵Fa nifangaro tamin'ny jentilisa izy Ka nianatra ny fanaony,

³⁶And they served their idols; and they were a snare unto them:

³⁶Dia nanompo ny sampiny izy, Ka dia nody fandrika ho azy izany.

³⁷And they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto demons,

³⁷Namono ny zananilahy sy ny zananivavy ho fanatitra ho an'ny demonia ireo;[Heb. ireo tompo]

³⁸And shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan; and the land was polluted with blood.

³⁸Eny, nandatsaka rà marina izy, Dia ny ran'ny zananilahy sy ny zananivavy, Izay novonoiny ho fanatitra ho an'ny sampin'i Kanana; Ka dia nametaveta ny tany tamin'ny rà izy.

³⁹And they were defiled with their works, and went a-whoring in their doings.

³⁹Ary naloto tamin'ny asany izy Ary nahatonga azy ho mijangajanga ny nataony.

⁴⁰Then was the anger of Jehovah kindled against his people, and he abhorred his inheritance;

⁴⁰Dia nirehitra tamin'ny olony ny fahatezeran'i Jehovah, Ka nataony ho zava-betaveta ny lovany.

⁴¹And he gave them into the hand of the nations; and they that hated them ruled over them:

⁴¹Dia nanolotra azy teo an-tànan'ny jentilisa Izy, Ka izay nankahala azy no nanapaka azy.

⁴²And their enemies oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.

⁴²Ary nampahory azy ny fahavalony, Ka naetry tambanin'ny tànany izy.

⁴³Often did he deliver them; but as for them they provoked [him] by their counsel, and they were brought low by their iniquity.

⁴³Matetika Izy no nahafaka azy; Fa ireo kosa niodina taminy ihany araka ny fisainany Ka nihalevona noho ny helony.

⁴⁴But he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry;

⁴⁴Kanefa nijery ny fahoriany ihany Izy. Raha nandre ny fitarainany;

⁴⁵And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving-kindnesses;

⁴⁵Dia nahatsiaro ny fanekeny Izy Ka nanenina araka ny haben'ny famindram-pony.

⁴⁶And he caused them to find compassion of all those that had carried them captives.

⁴⁶Dia nataony nahita famindram-po ireny Tamin'izay rehetra namabo azy.

⁴⁷Save us, Jehovah our God, and gather us from among the nations, to give thanks unto thy holy name, [and] to triumph in thy praise.

⁴⁷Vonjeo izahay, ry Jehovah Andriamanitray ô, Ka angòny avy amin'ny jentilisa, Mba hisaoranay ny anaranao masina Sy hifalianay amin'ny fiderana Anao.Isaorana anie Jehovah Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, hatramin'ny taloha indrindra ka mandrakizay; Ary aoka ny olona rehetra hanao hoe: Amena! Haleloia.

⁴⁸Blessed be Jehovah the God of Israel, from eternity and to eternity! And let all the people say, Amen! Hallelujah!

⁴⁸Isaorana anie Jehovah Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, hatramin'ny taloha indrindra ka mandrakizay; Ary aoka ny olona rehetra hanao hoe: Amena! Haleloia.
