Salmos 111

Ngā Mahi Miharo a te Atua

1 Whakamoemititia a Ihowā!

Ka whakapaua tōku ngākau ki te whakawhetai ki a Ihowā,

i te rūnanga o te hunga tika, i te whakaminenga.

2 He nui ngā mahi a Ihowā,

e whakatakina ana e te hunga katoa e manako ana ki aua mea.

3 He mea hōnore, he mea korōria tāna mahi;

tū tonu tōna tika ake ake.

4 Kua meinga e ia kia maharatia āna mahi whakamīharo;

he atawhai a Ihowā, he aroha.

5 E hōmai ana e ia he kai mā te hunga e wehi ana ki a ia;

ka mahara tonu ia ki tāna kawenata.

6 Kua whakakitea e ia ki tāna iwi te kaha o āna mahi,

i tāna hoatutanga i tō ngā tauiwi hei kāinga tupu mō rātou.

7 Ko ngā mahi a ōna ringa he pono, he whakawā tika;

pono tonu āna akoranga katoa.

8 Ū tonu ake ake,

e mahia ana i runga i te pono, i te tika.

9 I tonoa mai e ia he whakaoranga mō tāna iwi;

kua kīia iho e ia tāna kawenata mō ake tonu atu;

he tapu tōna ingoa, e wehingia ana.

10 Ko te tīmatanga o te whakaaro nui he wehi ki a Ihowā;

he ngārahu pai tō te hunga katoa nāna ērā mahi.

Ka mau te whakamoemiti ki a ia, ake ake.

1 Praise ye Jehovah.

I will give thanks unto Jehovah with my whole heart,

In the council of the upright, and in the congregation.

2 The works of Jehovah are great,

Sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

3 His work is honor and majesty;

And his righteousness endureth for ever.

4 He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered:

Jehovah is gracious and merciful.

5 He hath given food unto them that fear him:

He will ever be mindful of his covenant.

6 He hath showed his people the power of his works,

In giving them the heritage of the nations.

7 The works of his hands are truth and justice;

All his precepts are sure.

8 They are established for ever and ever;

They are done in truth and uprightness.

9 He hath sent redemption unto his people;

He hath commanded his covenant for ever:

Holy and reverend is his name.

10 The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom;

A good understanding have all they that do his commandments:

His praise endureth for ever.
