Psalms 112

1 Praise ye the LORD! Happy the man who feareth the LORD, Who taketh delight in his commandments!

Whakamoemititia a Ihowa. Ka hari te tangata e wehi ana i a Ihowa, e aro nui ana ki ana whakahau.

2 His posterity shall be mighty on the earth; The race of the righteous shall be blessed.

Ka nui ona uri ki runga ki te whenua; ka manaakitia te whakatupuranga o te hunga tika.

3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house; His righteousness shall endure for ever.

Kei tona whare te rawa, te taonga: ka pumau tonu tona tika, ake ake.

4 To the righteous shall arise light out of darkness; He is gracious and full of compassion and righteousness.

Ka maea ake te marama i roto i te pouri ki te hunga tika: he atawhai ia, he aroha, he tika.

5 Happy the man who hath pity and lendeth! He shall sustain his cause in judgment;

He pono ka whiwhi painga te tangata he atawhai, he ohaoha tana mahi: ka u ana kupu i te whakawakanga.

6 Yea, he shall never be moved: The righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

E kore hoki ia e whakangaueuetia ake ake: ka maharatia tonutia te tangata tika ake ake.

7 He is not afraid of evil tidings; His heart is firm, trusting in the LORD.

E kore ia e mataku i te rongo kino: e u ana tona ngakau, e whakawhirinaki ana ki a Ihowa.

8 His heart is firm; he hath no fear, Till he see his desire upon his enemies.

Ka u tona ngakau, e kore ia e wehi, kia kite ra ano ia i tana i hiahia ai ki ona hoariri.

9 He hath scattered blessings; he hath given to the poor; His righteousness shall endure for ever; His horn shall be exalted with honor.

Kua tuwhaina e ia, kua hoatu ki te hunga rawakore: pumau tonu tona tika ake ake; ka ara tona haona i runga i te kororia.

10 The wicked shall see, and be grieved; He shall gnash his teeth, and melt away; The desire of the wicked shall perish.

Ka kite te tangata kino, a ka pouri; ka pakiri ona niho, memeha iho: pirau iho te hiahia o te hunga kino.
