Psalms 6

1 “To the chief musician on Neginoth upon Sheminith, a psalm of David.” O Lord, correct me not in thy anger, and chastise me not in thy wrath.

Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi Nekinoto, he mea Heminiti. He himene na Rawiri. E Ihowa, kaua e whakatupehupehu mai ki ahau, ina riri koe, kaua ano ahau e pakia ina arita mai koe.

2 Be gracious unto me, O Lord; for I am withering away; heal me, O Lord; for my bones are terrified.

E Ihowa, tohungia ahau, he ngoikore hoki ahau: rongoatia ahau, e Ihowa, e ohooho ana hoki oku wheua.

3 And my soul is greatly terrified; but thou, O Lord, how long yet—?

E ohooho noa iho ana hoki toku wairua: ko koe ia, e Ihowa, kia pehea atu te roa?

4 Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: help me for the sake of thy kindness.

Hoki mai, e Ihowa, kia mawhiti atu toku wairua: kia mahara ki tou aroha, a whakaorangia ahau.

5 For in death men do not remember thee: in the nether world, who shall give thee thanks? (Sheol h7585)

Kahore hoki he mahara ki a koe ina mate: ko wai hei whakawhetai ki a koe i roto i te reinga? (Sheol h7585)

6 I am weary with my sighing; I flood every night my bed; With my tears I moisten my couch.

Mauiui iho ahau i toku auetanga; e manu ana toku moenga i ahau a pau noa te po; e whakamakukuria ana e ahau toku takotoranga ki oku roimata.

7 My eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all my assailants.

Pakoko kau toku kanohi i te tangi; kua koroheke haere i oku hoariri katoa.

8 Depart from me, all ye workers of wickedness; for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping.

Mawehe atu i ahau, e nga kaimahi katoa i te kino; kua rongo nei hoki a Ihowa i te reo o taku tangi.

9 The Lord hath heard my supplication; the Lord will accept my prayer.

Kua rongo a Ihowa ki taku inoi; ka manako a Ihowa ki taku karakia.

10 Ashamed and greatly terrified shall become all my enemies; they will turn round, and be made ashamed in a moment.

Ka whakama, ka pokaikaha noa iho oku hoariri katoa: ka hoki ratou, ka pa whakarere atu te whakama.
