Psalms 60
1 To the chief music-maker; put to Shushan-eduth. Michtam. Of David. For teaching. When he was fighting against Aram-naharaim and Aramzobah, when Joab came back, and put twelve thousand of the Edomites to death, in the Valley of Salt. God, you have put us away from you, you have sent us in all directions, you have been angry; O be turned to us again.
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Huhana Erutu. He Mikitama, na Rawiri, hei whakaako. No tana whawhaitanga ki a Aramanaharaima raua ko Aramatopa. Na hoki ana a Ioapa, a patua ana e ia a Eroma ki te Raorao Tote, kotahi tekau ma rua mano. E te Atua, kua pa nga matou e koe, kua oti matou te whakamarara e koe, kua riri koe; tahuri mai ano ki a matou.
2 By the power of your hand the earth is shaking and broken; make it strong again, for it is moved.
Wiri ana te whenua i a koe: kua ngatata i a koe: whakakapia ona wahi pakaru; e ru ana hoki.
3 You have made the people see hard times; you have given us the wine of shaking for our drink.
He mea pakeke kua whakakitea e koe ki tau iwi, kua oti matou te whakainu e koe ki te waina e wiri ai.
4 Give a safe place to those who have fear of you, where they may go in flight from before the bow. (Selah)
Kua homai e koe he kara ki te hunga e wehi ana i a koe: kia whakakitea hei mea mo te pono. (Hera)
5 So that your loved ones may be made safe, let your right hand be my salvation, and give me an answer.
Hei mea e mawhiti ai au e aroha ai: ma tou matau e whakaora, whakahokia mai hoki he kupu ki ahau.
6 God has said in his holy place, I will be glad: I will make a division of Shechem, and the valley of Succoth will be measured out.
Kua korero te Atua i runga i tona tapu; ka hari ahau, ka kotikoti i Hekeme, ka roherohe hoki i te raorao o Hukota.
7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; and Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;
Noku Kireara, noku ano a Manahi, ko Eparaima ano hoki te kaha o toku matenga; ko Hura taku kaiwhakatakoto ture;
8 Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I put out my shoe; over Philistia will a glad cry be sounded.
Ko Moapa taku oko horoi; ka maka e ahau toku hu ki runga ki Eroma: e Pirihitia, ko ahau hei whakamanamana mau.
9 Who will take me into the strong town? who will be my guide into Edom?
Ma wai ahau e kawe ki te pa kaha? Na wai ahau i arahi ki Eroma?
10 Have not you put us away, O God? and you have not gone out with our armies.
He teka ranei, e te Atua, kua panga matou e koe? kahore hoki koe, e te Atua, e haere tahi me a matou taua.
11 Give us help in our trouble; for there is no help in man.
Homai he awhina mo matou ki o matou hoariri: he teka noa hoki te awhina a te tangata.
12 Through God we will do great things, for through him our haters will be crushed under our feet.
Ma te Atua tatou ka toa ai: mana hoki e takahi ki raro o tatou hoa whawhai.
