Psalms 41
1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. O the blessedness of him Who is acting wisely to the poor, In a day of evil YHWH delivers him.
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He himene na Rawiri. Ka hari te tangata e whakaaro ana ki te rawakore; e whakaorangia ia e Ihowa i te ra o te he.
2 YHWH preserves him and revives him, He is blessed in the land, And You do not give him into the will of his enemies.
Ma Ihowa ia e tiaki, e whakaora; ka whakaharitia ia i runga i te whenua: e kore ano e tukua e koe ki nga hiahia o ona hoariri.
3 YHWH supports [him] on a bed of sickness, You have turned his bed in his weakness.
Ma Ihowa ia e whakakaha, i a ia e whakaruhi ana i runga i te moenga: mau ano e whakapai katoa tona moenga i a ia e mate ana.
4 I said, “O YHWH, favor me, Heal my soul, for I sinned against You,”
I mea ahau, E Ihowa, tohungia ahau; rongoatia toku wairua; kua hara hoki ahau ki a koe.
5 My enemies say evil of me: When he dies—his name has perished!
He kino te korero a oku hoariri moku, e mea ana, A hea ranei ia mate ai, pirau ai tona ingoa?
6 And if he came to see—he speaks vanity, His heart gathers iniquity to itself, He goes out—at the street he speaks.
A ki te haere mai ia kia kite i ahau, ka korero horihori ia: e ami ana tona ngakau i te kino mana; i tona putanga ki waho, korerotia ana e ia.
7 All hating me whisper together against me, Against me they devise evil to me:
E komuhumuhu ana moku te hunga katoa e kino ana ki ahau; e whakatakoto ana i te kino moku.
8 A worthless thing is poured out on him, And because he lay down he does not rise again.
E ai ta ratou, E piri ana te mate kino ki a ia; a ka takoto nei ia, heoi ano tona aranga ake.
9 Even my ally, in whom I trusted, One eating my bread, Made the heel great against me,
Ae, ko toku hoa ake ano, i whakawhirinaki ai ahau, i kai nei i taku taro, kua hiki ake tona rekereke ki ahau.
10 And You, YHWH, favor me, And cause me to rise, And I give repayment to them.
Ko koe ia, e Ihowa, kia aroha ki ahau: a whakaarahia ahau, kia utua ai ratou e ahau.
11 By this I have known, That You have delighted in me, Because my enemy does not shout over me.
Na konei ahau i matau ai e pai ana koe ki ahau, no te mea kahore toku hoariri e whakamanamana ki ahau.
12 As for me, in my integrity, You have taken hold on me, And cause me to stand before You for all time.
Ko ahau ia, ko koe e whakamau ake ana i ahau i runga i toku ngakau tapatahi: e whakatu ake ana hoki i ahau ki tou aroaro ake tonu atu.
13 Blessed [is] YHWH, God of Israel, From age to age. Amen and Amen.
Kia whakapaingia a Ihowa, te Atua o Iharaira inamata riro ano, ake tonu atu ano hoki. Amine, ae Amine.
