Psalms 132

1 [A Song of Ascents.] LORD, remember David and all his affliction,

He waiata; he pikitanga. E Ihowa, maharatia a Rawiri, me ona mamaetanga ngakau katoa;

2 how he swore to the LORD, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:

Tana oati ki a Ihowa, tana kupu taurangi ki te Mea Nui o Hakopa;

3 "Surely I will not come into the structure of my house, nor go up into my bed;

E kore rawa ahau e tae ki toku whare e noho ai ahau, e eke ranei ki runga ki toku moenga;

4 I will not give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids;

E kore ahau e tuku i oku kanohi kia moe, i oku kamo kia nenewha;

5 until I find out a place for the LORD, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob."

Kia kitea ra ano e ahau he wahi mo Ihowa, he nohoanga mo te Mea Nui o Hakopa.

6 Look, we heard of it in Ephrathah. We found it in the field of Jaar:

Na i rangona e matou ki Eparata, i kitea ki nga mara o te ngahere.

7 "We will go into his dwelling place. We will worship at his footstool.

Ka haere matou ki roto ki ona tapenakara; ka koropiko ki tona turanga waewae.

8 Arise, LORD, to your resting place, you and the ark of your strength.

E ara, e Ihowa, ki tou okiokinga, a koe, me te aaka o tou kaha.

9 Let your priest be clothed with righteousness. Let your faithful ones shout for joy."

Kia whakakakahuria au tohunga ki te tika; kia hamama tau hunga tapu i te hari.

10 For your servant David's sake, do not turn away the face of your anointed one.

Whakaaro ki a Rawiri, ki tau pononga: kaua e whakapeaua atu te mata o tau i whakawahi ai.

11 The LORD has sworn to David in truth. He will not turn from it: "I will set the fruit of your body on your throne.

Kua oati pono a Ihowa ki a Rawiri, e kore ia e tahuri ke i tena; Ka whakanohoia e ahau tetahi hua o tou kopu ki tou torona.

12 If your children will keep my covenant, my testimony that I will teach them, their children also will sit on your throne forevermore."

Ki te puritia e au tama taku kawenata, me taku whakaaturanga e ako ai ahau ki a ratou, ka noho ano a ratou tama ki tou torona ake ake.

13 For the LORD has chosen Zion; he has desired it for his dwelling.

Kua whiriwhiria hoki e Ihowa a Hiona; kua hiahiatia e ia hei nohoanga mona.

14 "This is my resting place forever. Here I will live, for I have desired it.

Ko toku okiokinga tenei ake ake; ko konei ahau noho ai, kua hiahiatia hoki e ahau.

15 I will abundantly bless her provision. I will satisfy her poor with bread.

Ka manaakitia rawatia e ahau tana kai; ka whakamakonatia e ahau ona rawakore ki te taro.

16 Her priests I will also clothe with salvation. Her faithful ones will shout aloud for joy.

Ka whakakakahuria hoki e ahau ona tohunga ki te whakaoranga; a ka hamama tona hunga tapu i te hari.

17 There I will make the horn of David to bud. I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.

Ka meinga e ahau kia pihi ki reira te haona o Rawiri: kua whakapaia e ahau he rama mo taku i whakawahi ai.

18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, but on himself, his crown will be resplendent."

Ka whakakakahuria e ahau ona hoariri ki te whakama; a ka matomato tona karauna i runga i a ia.
