Psalms 9
1 For the Leader; upon Muthlabben. A Psalm of David. I will give thanks unto the LORD with my whole heart; I will tell of all Thy marvellous works.
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Muturapena. He himene na Rawiri. Ka whakapaua toku ngakau ki te whakamoemiti ki a Ihowa, ka korerotia e ahau au mahi whakamiharo katoa.
2 I will be glad and exult in Thee; I will sing praise to Thy name, O Most High:
Ka koa ahau, ka whakamanamana ki a koe, ka himene atu ki tou ingoa, e te Runga Rawa.
3 When mine enemies are turned back, they stumble and perish at Thy presence;
I te hokinga whakamuri o oku hoariri, tutuki ana ratou, ngaro iho i tou aroaro.
4 For Thou hast maintained my right and my cause; Thou sattest upon the throne as the righteous Judge.
Nau hoki i whakatika aku korero me toku whakawa; i runga koe i te torona e noho ana, e whakarite tika ana.
5 Thou hast rebuked the nations, Thou hast destroyed the wicked, Thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.
Kua whakatupehupehu koe ki nga tauiwi, huna ana e koe te tangata kino, horoia atu ana to ratou ingoa ake ake.
6 O thou enemy, the waste places are come to an end for ever; and the cities which thou didst uproot, their very memorial is perished.
Ko te hoariri, mutu pu ratou, he ngaromanga oti tonu iho: a ko nga pa i huna e koe, ngaro whakarere to ratou whakamaharatanga.
7 But the LORD is enthroned for ever; He hath established His throne for judgment.
Ko Ihowa ia noho tonu hei kingi ake, ake: kua whakapaia e ia tona torona mo te whakawa.
8 And He will judge the world in righteousness, He will minister judgment to the peoples with equity.
A e whakarite ia mo te ao i runga i te tika, ka whakatakoto tikanga mo nga iwi i runga i te pono.
9 The LORD also will be a high tower for the oppressed, a high tower in times of trouble;
Hei pa teko ano a Ihowa mo te tangata e tukinotia ana, hei pa teko i nga wa o te he.
10 And they that know Thy name will put their trust in Thee; for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek Thee.
A ka whakawhirinaki ki a koe te hunga e matau ana ki tou ingoa: no te mea e kore e whakarerea e koe, e Ihowa, te hunga e rapu ana i a koe.
11 Sing praises to the LORD, who dwelleth in Zion; declare among the peoples His doings.
Himene ki a Ihowa e noho nei i Hiona: whakapuakina i waenganui i nga iwi ana mahi.
12 For He that avengeth blood hath remembered them; He hath not forgotten the cry of the humble.
Ka whakataki toto ia, ka mahara ia ki a ratou: kahore e wareware i a ia te karanga a te hunga iti.
13 Be gracious unto me, O LORD, behold mine affliction at the hands of them that hate me; Thou that liftest me up from the gates of death;
Tohungia ahau, e Ihowa; titiro ki toku mate i te hunga e kino ana ki ahau, e te kaiwhakaara i ahau i nga tatau o te mate:
14 That I may tell of all Thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion, that I may rejoice in Thy salvation.
Kia whakakitea katoatia ai e ahau ou whakamoemiti i nga tatau o te tamahine o Hiona: ka hari ahau ki tau whakaoranga.
15 The nations are sunk down in the pit that they made; in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
Kua tapoko nga tauiwi ki te rua i keria e ratou: kua mau to ratou waewae i roto i te kupenga i huna e ratou.
16 The LORD hath made Himself known, He hath executed judgment, the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. (Higgaion, Selah)
Kua matauria a Ihowa ki te whakawa e whakaritea ana e ia: he mahanga mo te tangata kino te mahi a ona ringa. (Hikaiono. (Hera)
Ka hoki nga tangata kino ki te reinga, ara nga iwi katoa e wareware ana ki te Atua. (Sheol h7585)
18 For the needy shall not alway be forgotten, nor the expectation of the poor perish for ever.
E kore hoki e warewarea tonutia te tangata rawakore: e kore e taka tonu ta te hunga iti i tumanako atu ai.
19 Arise, O LORD, let not man prevail; let the nations be judged in Thy sight.
E ara, e Ihowa, kei riro i ta te tangata: kia whakawakia nga tauiwi i tou aroaro.
20 Set terror over them, O LORD; let the nations know they are but men. (Selah)
E Ihowa, meinga ratou kia wehi: kia matau nga tauiwi he tangata nei ano ratou. (Hera)
