Psalms 84

How amiable are thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!

Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Kititi. He himene ma nga tama a Koraha. Ano te ataahua o ou tapenakara, e Ihowa o nga mano!

My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.

E hiahia ana toku wairua, ae, e hemo ana ki nga marae o Ihowa: e tangi ana toku ngakau me oku kikokiko ki te Atua ora.

Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O LORD of hosts, my King, and my God.

Me te pihoihoi hoki kua kite i tetahi whare, me te warou ano hoki i tetahi ohanga mona, hei takotoranga mo ana pi, ara i au aata, e Ihowa o nga mano, e toku Kingi, e toku Atua.

Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee. Selah.

Ka hari te hunga e noho ana i tou whare: he whakamoemiti tonu ta ratou ki a koe. (Hera.

Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them.

Ka hari te tangata ko tona kaha nei kei a koe: kei roto i o ratou ngakau nga huarahi ki reira.

Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.

Ka haere ratou ra te raorao o Paka, ka meinga e ratou hei puna: ngaro iho ano hoki nga poka i te ua.

They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God.

Ka haere atu ratou i te kaha ki te kaha; ka kitea ratou ki te aroaro o te Atua i Hiona.

O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah.

E Ihowa, e te Atua o nga mano, whakarongo ki taku inoi: tahuri mai tou taringa, e te Atua o Hakopa. (Hera.

Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.

Titiro mai, e te Atua, e to matou whakangungu rakau: tirohia iho hoki te mata o tau tangata i whakawahi ai.

For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.

No te mea, he ra kotahi i ou whare, pai atu i nga ra kotahi mano: te tiaki tatau i te whare o toku Atua, pai atu ki ahau i te noho ki nga teneti o te kino.

For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

He ra hoki a Ihowa te Atua, he whakangungu rakau: ka homai e Ihowa te atawhai me te kororia; e kore e kaiponuhia e ia tetahi mea pai ki te hunga e tapatahi ana te haere.

O LORD of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.

E Ihowa o nga mano, ka hari te tangata e whakawhirinaki ana ki a koe.
