Salmos 57

For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Do Not Destroy." A poem by David, when he fled from Saul, in the cave.

1 Be merciful to me, God, be merciful to me,

for my soul takes refuge in you.

Yes, in the shadow of your wings, I will take refuge,

until disaster has passed.

2 I cry out to God Most High,

to God who accomplishes my requests for me.

3 He will send from heaven, and save me,

he rebukes the one who is pursuing me. Selah.

God will send out his loving kindness and his truth.

4 My soul is among lions.

I lie among those who are set on fire,

even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows,

and their tongue a sharp sword.

5 Be exalted, God, above the heavens!

Let your glory be above all the earth!

6 They have prepared a net for my steps.

My soul is bowed down.

They dig a pit before me.

They fall into the middle of it themselves. Selah.

7 My heart is steadfast, God.

My heart is steadfast.

I will sing, yes, I will sing praises.

8 Wake up, my glory! Wake up, lute and harp!

I will wake up the dawn.

9 I will give thanks to you, Lord, among the peoples.

I will sing praises to you among the nations.

10 For your great loving kindness reaches to the heavens,

and your truth to the skies.

11 Be exalted, God, above the heavens.

Let your glory be over all the earth.

He Whakamoemiti me te Kupu Tūturu i te Pēhinga

Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi: Aratakiti. He Mikitama. Nā Rāwiri, i tōna rerenga i a Haora i a ia nei i roto i te ana.

1 Tohungia ahau, e te Atua, tohungia ahau,

e whakawhirinaki ana hoki tōku wairua ki a koe;

āe, ka piri ahau ki raro ki te taumarumarutanga o ōu pākau,

kia pahemo rā anō ēnei mate.

2 Ka karanga ahau ki te Atua, ki te Runga Rawa,

ki te Atua e oti ai āku mea katoa.

3 Ka ungā mai e ia he kaiwhakaora mōku i te rangi,

ina tāwai te tangata e mea ana kia horomia ahau. Hera

Ka ungā mai e te Atua tāna mahi tohu me tōna pono.

4 Kei waenganui tōku wairua i ngā raiona;

e takoto ana ahau i waenganui i te hunga e kāia ana e te ahi;

i ngā tama hoki a te tangata, he tao nei ō rātou niho,

he pere, he hoari koi anō ō rātou arero.

5 Kia whakanuia koe, e te Atua, ki runga ake i ngā rangi;

hei runga atu i te whenua katoa tōu korōria.

6 Kua whakatakotoria e rātou he kupenga mō ōku takahanga,

kua piko tōku wairua;

kua keria e rātou he poka ki tōku aroaro,

ā, taka iho ko rātou anō ki roto. Hera

7 Pūmau tonu tōku ngākau, e te Atua,

pūmau tonu tōku ngākau;

ka waiata ahau, āe, ka hīmene ahau.

8 E ara, e tōku korōria!

E ara, e te hātere, e te hāpa;

ka ara wawe anō ahau.

9 Ka whakamoemiti ahau ki a koe, e te Ariki, i waenganui i ngā iwi;

ka hīmene ki a koe i waenganui i ngā tauiwi.

10 He nui hoki tāu mahi tohu, ā tutuki noa ki ngā rangi,

me tōu pono ā tutuki noa ki ngā kapua.

11 Kia whakanuia koe, e te Atua, ki runga i ngā rangi;

hei runga i te whenua katoa tōu korōria.
