Psalms 97
1 YHWH has reigned, The earth is joyful, many islands rejoice.
Ko Ihowa te Kingi, kia hari te whenua, kia koa nga tini moutere.
2 Cloud and darkness [are] around Him, Righteousness and judgment the basis 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 goes before Him, And burns around His adversaries.
He kapura e haere ana i mua i a ia, a pau ake ona hoariri a taka noa.
4 His lightnings have lightened the world, The earth has seen, and is pained.
Marama tonu te ao i ana uira: i kite te whenua, a wiri ana.
5 Hills, like wax, melted before YHWH, Before the Lord of all the 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 declared His righteousness, And all the peoples have seen His glory.
E whakapuakina ana e nga rangi tona tika: a e kitea ana e nga iwi katoa tona kororia.
7 All servants of a carved image are ashamed, Those boasting themselves in idols, Bow yourselves to Him, all you gods.
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 Zion has heard and rejoices, And daughters of Judah are joyful, Because of Your judgments, O YHWH.
I rongo a Hiona, a koa ana: whakamanamana ana nga tamahine o Hura, e Ihowa, ki au whakaritenga.
9 For You, YHWH, [are] Most High over all the earth, You have been exalted greatly over 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 who love YHWH, hate evil, He is keeping the souls of His saints, He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
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] sown for the righteous, And joy for the upright of heart.
Kua oti te marama te whakato mo te hunga tika: me te koa mo te hunga ngakau tapatahi.
12 Rejoice, you righteous, in YHWH, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness!
Kia hari ki a Ihowa, e te hunga tika: whakamoemiti ki tona ingoa tapu.
