Psalms 9

Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Muturapena. He himene na Rawiri. Ka whakapaua toku ngakau ki te whakamoemiti ki a Ihowa, ka korerotia e ahau au mahi whakamiharo katoa.

I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.

Ka koa ahau, ka whakamanamana ki a koe, ka himene atu ki tou ingoa, e te Runga Rawa.

I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.

I te hokinga whakamuri o oku hoariri, tutuki ana ratou, ngaro iho i tou aroaro.

When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence.

Nau hoki i whakatika aku korero me toku whakawa; i runga koe i te torona e noho ana, e whakarite tika ana.

For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou satest in the throne judging right.

Kua whakatupehupehu koe ki nga tauiwi, huna ana e koe te tangata kino, horoia atu ana to ratou ingoa ake ake.

Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.

Ko te hoariri, mutu pu ratou, he ngaromanga oti tonu iho: a ko nga pa i huna e koe, ngaro whakarere to ratou whakamaharatanga.

O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.

Ko Ihowa ia noho tonu hei kingi ake, ake: kua whakapaia e ia tona torona mo te whakawa.

But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for judgment.

A e whakarite ia mo te ao i runga i te tika, ka whakatakoto tikanga mo nga iwi i runga i te pono.

And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.

Hei pa teko ano a Ihowa mo te tangata e tukinotia ana, hei pa teko i nga wa o te he.

The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.

A ka whakawhirinaki ki a koe te hunga e matau ana ki tou ingoa: no te mea e kore e whakarerea e koe, e Ihowa, te hunga e rapu ana i a koe.

And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.

Himene ki a Ihowa e noho nei i Hiona: whakapuakina i waenganui i nga iwi ana mahi.

Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.

Ka whakataki toto ia, ka mahara ia ki a ratou: kahore e wareware i a ia te karanga a te hunga iti.

When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the humble.

Tohungia ahau, e Ihowa; titiro ki toku mate i te hunga e kino ana ki ahau, e te kaiwhakaara i ahau i nga tatau o te mate:

Have mercy upon me, O LORD; consider my trouble which I suffer of them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death:

Kia whakakitea katoatia ai e ahau ou whakamoemiti i nga tatau o te tamahine o Hiona: ka hari ahau ki tau whakaoranga.

That I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.

Kua tapoko nga tauiwi ki te rua i keria e ratou: kua mau to ratou waewae i roto i te kupenga i huna e ratou.

The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.

Kua matauria a Ihowa ki te whakawa e whakaritea ana e ia: he mahanga mo te tangata kino te mahi a ona ringa. (Hikaiono. Hera.

The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.

Ka hoki nga tangata kino ki te reinga, ara nga iwi katoa e wareware ana ki te Atua.

The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

E kore hoki e warewarea tonutia te tangata rawakore: e kore e taka tonu ta te hunga iti i tumanako atu ai.

For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever.

E ara, e Ihowa, kei riro i ta te tangata: kia whakawakia nga tauiwi i tou aroaro.

Arise, O LORD; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight.

E Ihowa, meinga ratou kia wehi: kia matau nga tauiwi he tangata nei ano ratou. (Hera.

Put them in fear, O LORD: that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Selah.
