Psalms 30
1 A Psalm. A song for the dedication of the temple. Of David. I will exalt You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up and have not allowed my foes to rejoice over me.
He hemene, he waiata mo te tainga o te kawa o te whare. Na Rawiri. Ka whakanui ahau i a koe, e Ihowa; nau hoki ahau i hapai ake, a kihai i tukua oku hoariri kia hari ki ahau.
2 O LORD my God, I cried to You for help, and You healed me.
E Ihowa, e toku Atua, i karanga ahau ki a koe, a kore ake toku mate i a koe.
E Ihowa, nau i whakaputa ake toku wairua i te reinga; nau ahau i whakaora kei heke ki te poka. (Sheol h7585)
4 Sing to the LORD, O you His saints, and praise His holy name.
Himene ki a Ihowa, e tana hunga tapu, whakawhetai hoki ki tona ingoa tapu.
5 For His anger is fleeting, but His favor lasts a lifetime. Weeping may stay the night, but joy comes in the morning.
He iti hoki te wahi e riri ai ia; he oranga ki te manakohia e ia: e tau iho te tangi i te ahiahi, a i te ata he hari.
6 In prosperity I said, “I will never be shaken.”
I mea ahau i toku wa i kake ai, E kore ahau e whakangaueuetia a muri ake nei.
7 O LORD, You favored me; You made my mountain stand strong. When You hid Your face, I was dismayed.
He manakohanga nau, e Ihowa, i u ai i a koe te tu o toku maunga; i huna e koe tou mata a raru iho ahau.
8 To You, O LORD, I called, and I begged my Lord for mercy:
E Ihowa, i karanga ahau ki a koe, i inoi hoki ki a Ihowa.
9 “What gain is there in my bloodshed, in my descent to the Pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it proclaim Your faithfulness?
He aha te pai o oku toto ina heke ahau ki te poka? Ma te puehu koia koe e whakamoemiti? mana oti e whakapuaki tou pono?
10 Hear me, O LORD, and have mercy; O LORD, be my helper.”
Whakarongo, e Ihowa, tohungia hoki ahau: e Ihowa, ko koe hei awhina moku.
11 You turned my mourning into dancing; You peeled off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,
Kua puta ke i a koe taku tangi hei kanikani: kua wewete i toku kakahu taratara, a whitikiria ana ahau e koe ki te koa;
12 that my heart may sing Your praises and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks forever.
Hei mea e himene ai toku kororia ki a koe, kore ake e wahangu. E Ihowa, e toku Atua, ka whakawhetai ahau ki a koe ake ake.
