Salmos 92

Ka Utua te Tika

He hīmene, he waiata mō te rā Hāpati.

1 He mea pai te whakawhetai ki a Ihowā,

te hīmene atu ki tōu ingoa, e te Runga Rawa;

2 te whakakite i tōu atawhai i te ata,

i tōu pono i ngā pō katoa;

3 i runga i te aho tekau, i te hātere;

i te tangi huatau a te hāpa.

4 Nāu hoki ahau, e Ihowā, i whakahari ki tāu mahi;

ka whakamanamana ahau ki ngā meatanga a ōu ringa.

5 Anō te nui o āu mahi, e Ihowā!

Hōhonu rawa ōu whakaaro.

6 Ko te tangata pōauau, kāhore ia e mātau;

kāhore hoki tēnei e mōhiotia e te kūware.

7 Kia pihi ake ngā whakaarokore ānō he tarutaru,

ā, kia tupu ngā kaimahi katoa i te kino;

he ngaromanga tēnā nō rātou ake ake.

8 Ko koe ia, e Ihowā, kei runga rawa ake ake.

9 Nā, ko ōu hoa whawhai, e Ihowā,

nā, ko ōu hoa whawhai, ka ngaro;

ka marara katoa ngā kaimahi i te kino.

10 Otirā, ka ara i a koe tōku haona,

ka pērā i tō te kau mākā;

ka whakawahia ahau ki te hinu hou.

11 Ka kite hoki tōku kanohi i tāku i hiahia ai ki runga ki ōku hoariri,

ka rongo ōku taringa i tāku i hiahia ai

o te hunga kino e whakatika ana mai ki ahau.

12 Ka rite te tupu o te tangata tika ki tō te nīkau;

ka rite tōna nui ki tō te hīta i Repanōna.

13 Ko te hunga i whakatōkia ki te whare o Ihowā

ka tupu ki ngā marae o tō tātou Atua.

14 Ka whai hua tonu rātou ua hina;

kī tonu i te wai, matomato tonu;

15 hei whakakite i te tika o Ihowā;

ko ia tōku kōhatu, kāhore hoki ōna hē.

A Psalm, a Song for the sabbath day.

1 It is a good thing to give thanks unto Jehovah,

And to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High;

2 To show forth thy lovingkindness in the morning,

And thy faithfulness every night,

3 With an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery;

With a solemn sound upon the harp.

4 For thou, Jehovah, hast made me glad through thy work:

I will triumph in the works of thy hands.

5 How great are thy works, O Jehovah!

Thy thoughts are very deep.

6 A brutish man knoweth not;

Neither doth a fool understand this:

7 When the wicked spring as the grass,

And when all the workers of iniquity do flourish;

It is that they shall be destroyed for ever.

8 But thou, O Jehovah, art on high for evermore.

9 For, lo, thine enemies, O Jehovah,

For, lo, thine enemies shall perish;

All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

10 But my horn hast thou exalted like the horn of the wild-ox:

I am anointed with fresh oil.

11 Mine eye also hath seen my desire on mine enemies,

Mine ears have heard my desire of the evil-doers that rise up against me.

12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree:

He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13 They are planted in the house of Jehovah;

They shall flourish in the courts of our God.

14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age;

They shall be full of sap and green:

15 To show that Jehovah is upright;

He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
