Salmos 10

1 Why do you stand far off, Yahweh?

Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?

2 In arrogance, the wicked hunt down the weak.

They are caught in the schemes that they devise.

3 For the wicked boasts of his heart’s cravings.

He blesses the greedy and condemns Yahweh.

4 The wicked, in the pride of his face,

has no room in his thoughts for God.

5 His ways are prosperous at all times.

He is arrogant, and your laws are far from his sight.

As for all his adversaries, he sneers at them.

6 He says in his heart, "I shall not be shaken.

For generations I shall have no trouble."

7 His mouth is full of cursing, deceit, and oppression.

Under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.

8 He lies in wait near the villages.

From ambushes, he murders the innocent.

His eyes are secretly set against the helpless.

9 He lurks in secret as a lion in his ambush.

He lies in wait to catch the helpless.

He catches the helpless when he draws him in his net.

10 The helpless are crushed.

They collapse.

They fall under his strength.

11 He says in his heart, "God has forgotten.

He hides his face.

He will never see it."

12 Arise, Yahweh!

God, lift up your hand!

Don’t forget the helpless.

13 Why does the wicked person condemn God,

and say in his heart, "God won’t call me into account"?

14 But you do see trouble and grief.

You consider it to take it into your hand.

You help the victim and the fatherless.

15 Break the arm of the wicked.

As for the evil man, seek out his wickedness until you find none.

16 Yahweh is King forever and ever!

The nations will perish out of his land.

17 Yahweh, you have heard the desire of the humble.

You will prepare their heart.

You will cause your ear to hear,

18 to judge the fatherless and the oppressed,

that man who is of the earth may terrify no more.

He Īnoi mō te Hunga e Tāmia ana

1 He aha koe ka tū mai ai i tawhiti, e Ihowā?

Ka whakangarongaro ai i ngā wā o te hē?

2 E whakakake ana te tangata kino, e tūkino ana i te tangata iti –

kia hopukina rātou ki ngā whakaaro i whakaaro ai rātou.

3 E whakapehapeha ana hoki te tangata kino ki te hiahia o tōna ngākau,

ā, ko te hunga apo taonga, e whakakāhore ana,

āe rā, e whakahāwea ana ki a Ihowā.

4 Ka mea te tangata kino, i te whakapehapeha o tōna mata,

"E kore e hiahiatia e ia."

Kei roto i ōna whakaaro katoa e mea ana,

"Kāhore he Atua."

5 Whanokē tonu ōna ara i ngā wā katoa;

kei runga noa ake āu whakaritenga tē kitea e ia,

he mea whakatūpererū e ia ōna hoariri katoa.

6 E mea ana i roto i tōna ngākau, "E kore ahau e whakakorikoria.

Kāhore hoki he hē mōku ā ngā whakatupuranga katoa."

7 Kī tonu tōna māngai i te kanga, i te hīanga, i te tūkino;

kei raro i tōna arero te whanokē me te teka.

8 E noho ana ia, e whanga ana i ngā pā koraha;

e kōhurutia ana e ia te hunga harakore i ngā wāhi ngaro.

E matatau ana ōna kanohi ki te hunga rawakore.

9 E whanga puku ana ia me he raiona i tōna kuhunga;

e whanga ana kia hopukia te tangata iti;

e hopukia ana e ia te tangata iti, ua kūmea ki tāna kupenga.

10 Kūpapa ana ia, piko ana,

hinga ana te hunga rawakore i āna mea kaha.

11 E mea ana i roto i tōna ngākau, "Ka wareware te Atua,

e huna ana ia i tōna mata e kore ia e kite ake tonu atu."

12 Whakatika, e Ihowā, e te Atua, tākiritia tōu ringa;

kaua e wareware ki te hunga iti.

13 He aha te tangata kino ka whakahāwea ai ki te Atua.

Kua mea ia i roto i tōna ngākau,

"E kore tēnei e whakatakina e koe"?

14 Kua kite koe; e tirohia nei hoki e koe

te whanokē me te whakatoi, ā, ka utua e tōu ringa.

E tuku ana te rawakore i a ia anō ki a koe;

ko koe hei tuarā mō te pani.

15 Whatia e koe te ringa o te tangata kino;

tēnā ko te tangata nanakia, whakatakina tōna kino,

kia kāhore rā anō e kitea e koe.

16 Ko Ihowā te Kīngi ake ake

kua kāhore kē ngā tauiwi i tōna whenua.

17 E Ihowā, kua whakarongo koe ki te hiahia o te hunga whakaiti;

māu anō ō rātou ngākau e whakapai,

ka tahuri anō tōu taringa ki te whakarongo;

18 ki te whakawā mō te pani, mō te tangata e tūkinotia ana,

kei whakamataku ā mua ake te tangata o te whenua.
