Psalms 108
1 A song. A Psalm of David. My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing and make music with all my being.
He waiata, he himene na Rawiri. Pumau tonu toku ngakau, e te Atua; ka waiata ahau, ae ra, ka himene ahau, me toku kororia ano.
2 Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.
E ara, e te hatere, e te hapa: ka ara wawe ano ahau.
3 I will praise You, O LORD, among the nations; I will sing Your praises among the peoples.
Ka whakamoemiti ahau ki a koe, e Ihowa, i waenganui i nga iwi: ka himene ki a koe i waenganui i nga tauiwi.
4 For Your loving devotion extends beyond the heavens, and Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
He nui atu hoki tau mahi tohu i nga rangi, a ko tou pono tutuki noa atu ki nga kapua.
5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.
Kia whakanuia koe, e te Atua, ki runga atu i nga rangi: hei runga atu i te whenua katoa tou kororia.
6 Respond and save us with Your right hand, that Your beloved may be delivered.
Kia puta tau i aroha ai, ma tou ringa matau matou e whakaora, a whakahokia mai he kupu ki a matou.
7 God has spoken from His sanctuary: “I will triumph! I will parcel out Shechem and apportion the Valley of Succoth.
Kua korero te Atua i runga i tona tapu: Ka hari ahau, ka kotikoti i Hekeme, ka roherohe i te raorao o Hukota.
8 Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim is My helmet, Judah is My scepter.
Noku Kireara; noku a Manahi; ko Eparaima ano hoki te kaha o toku matenga; ko Hura taku hepeta.
9 Moab is My washbasin; upon Edom I toss My sandal; over Philistia I shout in triumph.”
Ko Moapa taku oko horoi; ka maka e ahau toku hu ki runga ki Eroma: ka whakamanamana ahau ki Pirihitia.
10 Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom?
Ma wai ahau e kawe ki te pa tuwatawata? Ko wai nana ahau i arahi ki Eroma?
11 Have You not rejected us, O God? Will You no longer march out, O God, with our armies?
He teka ianei kua panga matou e koe, e te Atua? kahore hoki koe, e te Atua, e haere tahi me o matou taua.
12 Give us aid against the enemy, for the help of man is worthless.
Homai ki a matou he awhina ki te hoariri: he teka kau noa hoki te awhina a te tangata.
13 With God we will perform with valor, and He will trample our enemies.
Ma te Atua tatou ka toa ai: mana hoki e takahi ki raro o tatou hoa whawhai.
