Psalms 32
1 A Psalm of David. Maschil. Happy is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is pardoned.
Na Rawiri: he Makiri. Ka hari te tangata kua oti tana he te muru, tona hara te hipoki.
2 Happy is the man unto whom the LORD counteth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.
Ka hari te tangata kahore nei e whakairia e Ihowa he hara ki a ia, a kahore he hianga i tona wairua.
3 When I kept silence, my bones wore away through my groaning all the day long.
I ahau kihai i kuihi, ngahengahe kau oku iwi i taku auetanga i te ra roa.
4 For day and night Thy hand was heavy upon me; my sap was turned as in the droughts of summer. (Selah)
No tou ringa i taimaha ki ahau i te ao, i te po; kua whakaputaina ketia toku makukuranga, ano na te maroketanga o te raumati. (Hera)
5 I acknowledged my sin unto Thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid; I said: 'I will make confession concerning my transgressions unto the LORD' — and Thou, Thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. (Selah)
I whakina e ahau toku hara ki a koe, kihai hoki i huna i toku kino: i mea ahau, Ka whakina aku mahi tutu ki a Ihowa; a murua ana e koe te kino o toku hara. (Hera)
6 For this let every one that is godly pray unto Thee in a time when Thou mayest be found; surely, when the great waters overflow, they will not reach unto him.
Mo konei ka inoi ki a koe nga tangata tapu katoa i te wa e kitea ai koe: he pono ka ngawha nga wai nui, e kore e tata ki a ia.
7 Thou art my hiding-place; Thou wilt preserve me from the adversary; with songs of deliverance Thou wilt compass me about. (Selah)
Ko koe toku piringa; mau ahau e whakaora i te pouri, mau ahau e karapoti ki nga waiata whakaora. (Hera)
8 'I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go; I will give counsel, Mine eye being upon thee.'
Ka tohutohungia koe e ahau, ka whakaakona koe ki te ara e haere ai koe; ma toku kanohi koe e arahi.
9 Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding; whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, that they come not near unto thee.
Kei rite koutou ki te hoiho, ki te muera ranei, kahore nei he matauranga; he mea kuku nei o raua kauae ki te paraire, ki te moka hei pupuri mai; ki te kore hoki, e kore e tata ki a koe.
10 Many are the sorrows of the wicked; but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy compasseth him about.
He tini nga mea whakapouri mo te tangata hara: ko te tangata ia e whakawhirinaki ana ki a Ihowa, ka karapotia e te atawhai.
11 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous; and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.
Kia koa ki a Ihowa, whakamanamana, e te hunga tika: kia hari, hamama, e te hunga ngakau tika katoa.
