¹{A Psalm of Asaph.} O God, the nations are come into thine inheritance: thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem in heaps.

¹[Fifonana noho ny faharavana nataon'ny fahavalo] Salamo nataon'i Asafa. Andriamanitra ô, tonga eto amin'ny lovanao ny jentilisa, ka nandoto ny tempolinao masina sady nanao an'i Jerosalema ho korontam-bato.

²The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat unto the fowl of the heavens, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth:

²Ny fatin'ny mpanomponao nomeny hohanin'ny voro-manidina, ny nofon'ny olonao masina ho an'ny bibidia;

³Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem, and there was none to bury [them].

³Ny ràny naidiny manodidina an'i Jerosalema tahaka ny rano, ary tsy nisy handevina.

⁴We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a mockery and a derision to them that are round about us.

⁴Tonga fandatsan'ny namanay izahay, sady faneso sy fanakoran'izay manodidina anay.

⁵How long, O Jehovah? wilt thou be angry for ever? Shall thy jealousy burn like fire?

⁵Mandra-pahoviana, Jehovah ô, no hanontolo fo Hianao, ka hirehitra tahaka ny afo ny fahasaro-piaoronao?

⁶Pour out thy fury upon the nations that have not known thee, and upon the kingdoms that call not upon thy name:

⁶Aidino amin'ny jentilisa izay tsy mahalala Anao ny fahatezeranao, sy amin'ny fanjakana izay tsy miantso ny anaranao;

⁷For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his habitation.

⁷Fa efa nandany an'i Jakoba izy ireo sady nandrava ny fonenany.

⁸Remember not against us the iniquities of [our] forefathers; let thy tender mercies speedily come to meet us: for we are brought very low.

⁸Aza tsarovana aminay ny heloky ny razanay; aoka ho avy faingana hitsena anay ny fiantrànao, fa reraka indrindra izahay.

⁹Help us, O God of our salvation, because of the glory of thy name; and deliver us, and forgive our sins, for thy name's sake.

⁹Vonjeo izahay, ry Andriamanitry ny famonjena anay ô, noho ny voninahitry ny anaranao; ary afaho izahay, ka mamelà ny helokay, noho ny anaranao.

¹⁰Wherefore should the nations say, Where is their God? Let the avenging of the blood of thy servants that is shed be known among the nations in our sight.

¹⁰Nahoana ny jentilisa no hanao hoe: aiza izay Andriamaniny? aoka ho fantatra amin'ny jentilisa eo imasonay ny famaliana ny ran'ny mpanomponao izay nalatsaka.

¹¹Let the groaning of the prisoner come before thee; according to the greatness of thine arm, preserve those that are appointed to die;

¹¹Aoka ho tonga eo anatrehanao ny fisentoan'ny mpifatotra; araka ny halehiben'ny sandrinao dia arovy tsy ho faty ny zanaky ny fahafatesana.

¹²And render unto our neighbours, sevenfold into their bosom, their reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.

¹²Ary valio impito heny ho ao an-tratran'ny mifanila fonenana aminay ny fanaratsiana izay nanaratsiany Anao, Tompo ô.Fa izahay, olonao sy ondry fiandrinao, dia hisaotra Anao mandrakizay; hatramin'ny taranaka fara mandimby no hilazanay ny fideràna Anao.

¹³And we, thy people and the sheep of thy pasture, will give thanks unto thee for ever; we will shew forth thy praise from generation to generation.

¹³Fa izahay, olonao sy ondry fiandrinao, dia hisaotra Anao mandrakizay; hatramin'ny taranaka fara mandimby no hilazanay ny fideràna Anao.
