< Psalms 99 >
1 The Lord reigneth; people tremble: he sitteth enthroned over the cherubim; the earth is moved.
Ko Ihowa te Kingi; kia wiri nga iwi: e noho ana ia i waenganui i nga kerupima; kia ngaueue te whenua.
2 The Lord is great in Zion; and he is exalted above all the people.
He nui a Ihowa i Hiona: kei runga ake ia i nga iwi katoa.
3 They will give thanks to thy name, great, and terrible, [and] holy it is.
Kia whakamoemiti ratou ki tou ingoa nui, whakamataku; he tapu ia.
4 And to the power of the king who loveth justice and righteousness hast thou truly executed in Jacob.
E matenui ana hoki te kaha o te kingi ki te whakawa tika; ko koe hei whakapumau i te pono: he whakawa tika, he hekore tau mahi i roto i a Hakopa.
5 Exalt ye the Lord our God, and bow yourselves down before his footstool: he is holy.—
Whakanuia a Ihowa, to tatou Atua: koropiko ki tona turanga waewae; he tapu ia.
6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests, and Samuel among those that call on his name; they called on the Lord, and he answered them.
Ko Mohi raua ko Arona i roto i ana tohunga, me Hamuera i roto i te hunga e karanga ana ki tona ingoa: i karanga ratou ki a Ihowa, a whakahoki kupu ana mai ia ki a ratou.
7 In the pillar of cloud he used to speak unto them: they kept his testimonies, and the statutes which he had given unto them.
I korero ia ki a ratou i roto i te pou kapua: i pupuri ratou i ana whakaaturanga, i te tikanga i whakatakotoria e ia ki a ratou.
8 O Lord, our God, thou didst answer them: thou wast a forgiving God unto them, yet also an avenger for their wrong doings.
E Ihowa, e to matou Atua, i whakahoki kupu koe ki a ratou: he Atua tohu koe i a ratou, otiia i rapu utu ano koe mo a ratou mahi.
9 Exalt the Lord our God, and bow yourselves down before his holy mount; for holy is the Lord our God.
Whakanuia a Ihowa, to tatou Atua, koropiko atu i tona maunga tapu: he tapu hoki a Ihowa, to tatou Atua.
