< Psalms 46 >

1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi, ma nga tama a Koraha. He waiata Aramoto. Ko te Atua to tatou piringa, to tatou kaha; he kaiawhina e tino tata ana i nga wa o te he.
2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the middle of the sea;
Na reira kore ake to tatou wehi, ahakoa nekehia te whenua, ahakoa kahakina nga maunga ki waenga moana;
3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. (Selah)
Ahakoa rara, taupatupatu noa ona wai, ahakoa wiri nga maunga i tona huamo. (Hera)
4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.
He awa tena ko ona manga hei whakahari i te pa o te Atua, i te wahi tapu o nga tapenakara o te Runga Rawa.
5 God is in the middle of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.
Kei waenganui ona te Atua, e kore ia e whakakorikoria: ma te Atua ia e awhina i te putanga ano o te ata.
6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
I nana nga tauiwi, i whakakorikoria nga rangatiratanga; puaki ana tona reo, rewa ana te whenua.
7 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
Kei a tatou a Ihowa o nga mano, ko te Atua o Hakopa to tatou piringa. (Hera)
8 Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he has made in the earth.
Haere mai, tirohia nga mahi a Ihowa, nga whakangaromanga i whakaputaina e ia ki te whenua.
9 He makes wars to cease to the end of the earth; he breaks the bow, and cuts the spear in sunder; he burns the chariot in the fire.
E whakamutua ana e ia nga whainga a te pito ra ano o te whenua: whati ana i a ia te kopere, poro pu te tao, tahuna ake e ia te hariata ki te kapura.
10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
Kia ata noho, a kia matau ko ahau te Atua; e whakanuia ahau i waenganui i nga tauiwi, e whakanuia ahau i te whenua.
11 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
Kei a tatou a Ihowa o nga mano: ko te Atua o Hakopa to tatou piringa. (Hera)
