Psalms 112

1 Hallelujah! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in His commandments.

Whakamoemititia a Ihowa. Ka hari te tangata e wehi ana i a Ihowa, e aro nui ana ki ana whakahau.

2 His descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.

Ka nui ona uri ki runga ki te whenua; ka manaakitia te whakatupuranga o te hunga tika.

3 Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.

Kei tona whare te rawa, te taonga: ka pumau tonu tona tika, ake ake.

4 Light dawns in the darkness for the upright— for the gracious, compassionate, and righteous.

Ka maea ake te marama i roto i te pouri ki te hunga tika: he atawhai ia, he aroha, he tika.

5 It is well with the man who is generous and lends freely, whose affairs are guided by justice.

He pono ka whiwhi painga te tangata he atawhai, he ohaoha tana mahi: ka u ana kupu i te whakawakanga.

6 Surely he will never be shaken; the righteous man will be remembered forever.

E kore hoki ia e whakangaueuetia ake ake: ka maharatia tonutia te tangata tika ake ake.

7 He does not fear bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.

E kore ia e mataku i te rongo kino: e u ana tona ngakau, e whakawhirinaki ana ki a Ihowa.

8 His heart is assured; he does not fear, until he looks in triumph on his foes.

Ka u tona ngakau, e kore ia e wehi, kia kite ra ano ia i tana i hiahia ai ki ona hoariri.

9 He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn will be lifted high in honor.

Kua tuwhaina e ia, kua hoatu ki te hunga rawakore: pumau tonu tona tika ake ake; ka ara tona haona i runga i te kororia.

10 The wicked man will see and be grieved; he will gnash his teeth and waste away; the desires of the wicked will perish.

Ka kite te tangata kino, a ka pouri; ka pakiri ona niho, memeha iho: pirau iho te hiahia o te hunga kino.
