Psalms 46
1 “For the leader of the music. Of, or for, the sons of Korah. To be sung in the manner, or with the voice, of virgins.” God is our refuge and strength; An ever present help in trouble.
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi, ma nga tama a Koraha. He waiata Aramoto. Ko te Atua to tatou piringa, to tatou kaha; he kaiawhina e tino tata ana i nga wa o te he.
2 Therefore will we not fear, though the earth be changed; Though the mountains tremble in the heart of the sea;
Na reira kore ake to tatou wehi, ahakoa nekehia te whenua, ahakoa kahakina nga maunga ki waenga moana;
3 Though its waters roar and be troubled, And the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. (Pause)
Ahakoa rara, taupatupatu noa ona wai, ahakoa wiri nga maunga i tona huamo. (Hera)
4 A river with its streams shall make glad the city of God, The holy dwelling-place of the Most High.
He awa tena ko ona manga hei whakahari i te pa o te Atua, i te wahi tapu o nga tapenakara o te Runga Rawa.
5 God is the midst of her; she shall not be moved; God will help her, and that full early.
Kei waenganui ona te Atua, e kore ia e whakakorikoria: ma te Atua ia e awhina i te putanga ano o te ata.
6 The nations raged; kingdoms were moved; He uttered his voice, the earth melted.
I nana nga tauiwi, i whakakorikoria nga rangatiratanga; puaki ana tona reo, rewa ana te whenua.
7 The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. (Pause)
Kei a tatou a Ihowa o nga mano, ko te Atua o Hakopa to tatou piringa. (Hera)
8 Come, behold the doings of the LORD; What desolations he hath made in the earth!
Haere mai, tirohia nga mahi a Ihowa, nga whakangaromanga i whakaputaina e ia ki te whenua.
9 He causeth wars to cease to the end of the earth; He hath broken the bow, and snapped the spear asunder, And burned the chariots in fire.
E whakamutua ana e ia nga whainga a te pito ra ano o te whenua: whati ana i a ia te kopere, poro pu te tao, tahuna ake e ia te hariata ki te kapura.
10 “Desist, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted throughout the earth!”
Kia ata noho, a kia matau ko ahau te Atua; e whakanuia ahau i waenganui i nga tauiwi, e whakanuia ahau i te whenua.
11 The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge.
Kei a tatou a Ihowa o nga mano: ko te Atua o Hakopa to tatou piringa. (Hera)
