< Psalms 146 >
1 Praise YAH! Praise, O my soul, YHWH.
Whakamoemititia a Ihowa. E toku wairua, whakamoemititia a Ihowa.
2 I praise YHWH during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist.
I ahau e ora nei ka whakamoemiti ahau ki a Ihowa; ka himene ahau ki toku Atua i ahau i te ao nei.
3 Do not trust in princes—in a son of man, For he has no deliverance.
Kei whakawhirinaki ki nga rangatira, ki te tama ranei a te tangata, kahore nei he awhina.
4 His spirit goes forth, he returns to his earth, In that day his thoughts have perished.
Ko te putanga atu o tona wairua, hoki ana ia ki tona oneone; kore iho ona whakaaro i taua ra pu ano.
5 O the blessedness of him Who has the God of Jacob for his help, His hope [is] on his God YHWH,
Ka hari te tangata ko te Atua nei o Hakopa tona kaiawhina: ko tana e tumanako ai ko Ihowa, ko tona Atua;
6 Making the heavens and earth, The sea and all that [is] in them, Who is keeping truth for all time,
Ko te kaihanga o te rangi, o te whenua, o te moana, o nga mea katoa o reira; e pupuri nei i te pono ake ake;
7 Doing judgment for the oppressed, Giving bread to the hungry.
E tohe nei i te whakawa a te hunga e tukinotia ana: e whangai nei i te hunga mate hiakai: ko Ihowa hei wewete i nga herehere:
8 YHWH is loosing the prisoners, YHWH is opening (the eyes of) the blind, YHWH is raising the bowed down, YHWH is loving the righteous,
Ko Ihowa hei whakatitiro i nga matapo: ko Ihowa hei whakaara i te hunga kua whakapikoa iho: e aroha ana a Ihowa ki te hunga tika.
9 YHWH is preserving the strangers, He causes the fatherless and widow to stand, And He turns the way of the wicked upside down.
Ko Ihowa hei tiaki i nga manene; ko ia hei tautoko i te pani, i te pouaru: ko te ara ia o te hunga kino, ka huripokitia e ia.
10 YHWH reigns for all time, Your God, O Zion, to generation and generation, Praise YAH!
Ko Ihowa hei kingi ake ake, ae, ko tou Atua, e Hiona, tae noa ki nga whakatupuranga katoa. Whakamoemititia a Ihowa.
