Salmos 6

He Īnoi mō te Whakaoranga i te Mate Taumaha

Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi: Nekinoto, he mea Heminiti. He hīmene nā Rāwiri.

1 E Ihowā, kaua e whakatūpehupehu mai ki ahau, ina riri koe,

kaua anō ahau e pākia ina ārita mai koe.

2 E Ihowā, tohungia ahau, he ngoikore hoki ahau;

rongoātia ahau, e Ihowā, e ohooho ana hoki ōku wheua.

3 E ohooho noa iho ana hoki tōku wairua;

ko koe ia, e Ihowā, kia pēhea atu te roa?

4 Hoki mai, e Ihowā, kia mawhiti atu tōku wairua;

kia mahara ki tōu aroha, ā, whakaorangia ahau.

5 Kāhore hoki he mahara ki a koe ina mate;

ko wai hei whakawhetai ki a koe i roto i te rēinga?

6 Māuiui iho ahau i tōku auētanga;

e manu ana tōku moenga i ahau ā pau noa te pō;

e whakamākūkūria ana e ahau

tōku takotoranga ki ōku roimata.

7 Pakoko kau tōku kanohi i te tangi;

kua koroheke haere i ōku hoariri katoa.

8 Mawehe atu i ahau, e ngā kaimahi katoa i te kino;

kua rongo nei hoki a Ihowā i te reo o tāku tangi.

9 Kua rongo a Ihowā ki tāku īnoi;

ka manako a Ihowā ki tāku karakia.

10 Ka whakamā, ka pōkaikaha noa iho ōku hoariri katoa;

ka hoki rātou, ka pā whakarere atu te whakamā.

For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments, set to the Sheminith. A Psalm of David.

1 O Jehovah, rebuke me not in thine anger,

Neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.

2 Have mercy upon me, O Jehovah; for I am withered away:

O Jehovah, heal me; for my bones are troubled.

3 My soul also is sore troubled:

And thou, O Jehovah, how long?

4 Return, O Jehovah, deliver my soul:

Save me for thy lovingkindness’ sake.

5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee:

In Sheol who shall give thee thanks?

6 I am weary with my groaning;

Every night make I my bed to swim;

I water my couch with my tears.

7 Mine eye wasteth away because of grief;

It waxeth old because of all mine adversaries.

8 Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity;

For Jehovah hath heard the voice of my weeping.

9 Jehovah hath heard my supplication;

Jehovah will receive my prayer.

10 All mine enemies shall be put to shame and sore troubled:

They shall turn back, they shall be put to shame suddenly.
