Psalms 24

1 A Psalm for David on the first day of the week. A Psalm for David on the first day of the week. The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof; the world, and all that dwell in it.

He himene na Rawiri. No Ihowa te whenua, me ona tini mea, te ao, me nga tangata e noho ana i runga.

2 He has founded it upon the seas, and prepared it upon the rivers.

He mea whakatu hoki nana ki runga ki nga moana, he mea whakau ki runga ki nga roma.

3 Who shall go up to the mountain of the Lord, and who shall stand in his holy place?

Ko wai e eke ki te maunga o Ihowa? Ko wai e tu ki tona wahi tapu?

4 He that is innocent in his hands and pure in his heart; who has not lifted up his soul to vanity, nor sworn deceitfully to his neighbor.

Ko te tangata he ma nei nga ringa, he harakore tona ngakau, kahore nei i ara tona wairua ki te horihori, a kahore i oati teka.

5 He shall receive a blessing from the Lord, and mercy from God his Saviour.

Ka riro i a ia te manaaki a Ihowa, me te tika a te Atua o tona whakaoranga.

6 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek the face of the God of Jacob. (Pause)

Ko te whakatupuranga tenei o te hunga e rapu ana ki a ia, e rapu nei i tou mate, e Hakopa. (Hera)

7 Lift up your gates, you princes, and be you lifted up, you everlasting doors; and the king of glory shall come in.

Kia ara o koutou matenga, e nga tatau, ara ake, e nga tatau onamata; a ka tomo te Kingi o te kororia.

8 Who is this king of Glory? the Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.

Ko wai tenei Kingi kororia? Ko Ihowa, ko te kaha, ko te marohirohi, ko Ihowa, ko te marohirohi ki te whawhai.

9 Lift up your gates, you princes; and be you lift up, you everlasting doors; and the king of glory shall come in.

Kia ara o koutou matenga, e nga tatau, kia ara ake, e nga tatau onamata, a ka tomo te Kingi o te kororia.

10 Who is this king of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is this king of glory.

Ko wai tenei Kingi kororia? Ko Ihowa o nga mano, ko ia te Kingi kororia. (Hera)
