¹[Ny mpikomy amin'Andriamanitra sy ny Mesiany] Nahoana no mitabataba ny jentilisa, ary misaina anoano foana ny firenena?

¹Why have nations tumultuously assembled? And do peoples meditate vanity?

²Ireo mpanjakan'ny tany mitsangana, Ary ny mpanapaka miara-mioko hanohitra an'i Jehovah sy ny Mesiany ka manao hoe:

²Station themselves do kings of the earth, And princes have been united together, Against Jehovah, and against His Messiah:

³"Aoka hotosantsika ny famatorany, ka hariantsika hiala amintsika ny famehezany."

³`Let us draw off Their cords, And cast from us Their thick bands.`

⁴Izay mipetraka any an-danitra mihomehy, ny Tompo maneso ireo.

⁴He who is sitting in the heavens doth laugh, The Lord doth mock at them.

⁵Dia hiteny azy amin'ny fahavinirany Izy ka hampangorohoro azy amin'ny fahatezerany hoe:

⁵Then doth He speak unto them in His anger, And in His wrath He doth trouble them:

⁶"Izaho kosa efa nanendry ny Mpanjakako Tambonin'i Ziona, tendrombohitro masina."

⁶`And I — I have anointed My King, Upon Zion — My holy hill.`

⁷"Hilaza zava-boatendry Aho; Jehovah nilaza tamiko hoe: Zanako Hianao, Izaho niteraka anao androany.

⁷I declare concerning a statute: Jehovah said unto me, `My Son Thou [art], I to-day have brought thee forth.

⁸Mangataha amiko, dia homeko ho lovanao ny jentilisa ary ny faran'ny tany ho fanananao.

⁸Ask of Me and I give nations — thy inheritance, And thy possession — the ends of earth.

⁹Hotorotoroinao amin'ny tehim-by izy: toy ny famaky vilany tany no hanamontsamontsananao azy."

⁹Thou dost rule them with a sceptre of iron, As a vessel of a potter Thou dost crush them.`

¹⁰Ary amin'izany dia hendre ianareo, ry mpanjaka; minoa anatra ianareo, ry mpitsaran'ny tany.

¹⁰And now, O kings, act wisely, Be instructed, O judges of earth,

¹¹Manompoa an'i Jehovah amin'ny fahatahorana, ary mifalia amin'ny fangovitana.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.

¹¹Serve ye Jehovah with fear, And rejoice with trembling.

¹²Manoroha ny zanaka, fandrao ho tezitra izy, ka ho very eny an-dalana ianareo; fa vetivety dia hirehitra ny fahatezerany. Sambatra izay rehetra mialoka aminy.

¹²Kiss the Chosen One, lest He be angry, And ye lose the way, When His anger burneth but a little, O the happiness of all trusting in Him!
