Psalms 97
1 For David, when his land is established. The Lord reigns, let the earth exult, let many islands rejoice.
Ko Ihowa te Kingi, kia hari te whenua, kia koa nga tini moutere.
2 Cloud, and darkness are round about him; righteousness and judgment are the establishment of his throne.
Ko te kapua me te pouri kei ona taha katoa: ko te tika, ko te whakawa, te turanga o tona torona.
3 Fire shall go before him, and burn up his enemies round about.
He kapura e haere ana i mua i a ia, a pau ake ona hoariri a taka noa.
4 His lightnings appeared to the world; the earth saw, and trembled.
Marama tonu te ao i ana uira: i kite te whenua, a wiri ana.
5 The mountains melted like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
Rewa noa nga maunga, ano he ware pi, i te aroaro o Ihowa, i te aroaro o te Ariki o te whenua katoa.
6 The heavens have declared his righteousness, and all the people have seen his glory.
E whakapuakina ana e nga rangi tona tika: a e kitea ana e nga iwi katoa tona kororia.
7 Let all that worship graven images be ashamed, who boast of their idols; worship him, all you his angels.
Kia whakama katoa te hunga e mahi ana ki nga whakapakoko, e whakamanamana ana ki nga atua horihori: koropiko ki a ia, e nga atua katoa.
8 Sion heard and rejoiced; and the daughters of Judea exulted, because of your judgments, O Lord.
I rongo a Hiona, a koa ana: whakamanamana ana nga tamahine o Hura, e Ihowa, ki au whakaritenga.
9 For you are Lord most high over all the earth; you are greatly exalted above all gods.
Ko koe hoki, e Ihowa, kei runga noa ake i te whenua katoa: kua whakanuia koe ki runga noa ake i nga atua katoa.
10 You that love the Lord, hate evil; the Lord preserves the souls of his saints; he shall deliver them from the hand of sinners.
E te hunga e aroha ana ki a Ihowa, e kino ki te he: e tiakina ana e ia nga wairua o tana hunga tapu; e whakaorangia ana ratou e ia i nga ringa o te hunga kino.
11 Light is sprung up for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
Kua oti te marama te whakato mo te hunga tika: me te koa mo te hunga ngakau tapatahi.
12 Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous; and give thanks for a remembrance of his holiness.
Kia hari ki a Ihowa, e te hunga tika: whakamoemiti ki tona ingoa tapu.
