Psalms 84
1 To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. How amiable [are] thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Kititi. He himene ma nga tama a Koraha. Ano te ataahua o ou tapenakara, e Ihowa o nga mano!
2 My soul longeth, and even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.
E hiahia ana toku wairua, ae, e hemo ana ki nga marae o Ihowa: e tangi ana toku ngakau me oku kikokiko ki te Atua ora.
3 Yes, the sparrow hath found a house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, [even] thy altars, O LORD of hosts, my King, and my God.
Me te pihoihoi hoki kua kite i tetahi whare, me te warou ano hoki i tetahi ohanga mona, hei takotoranga mo ana pi, ara i au aata, e Ihowa o nga mano, e toku Kingi, e toku Atua.
4 Blessed [are] they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee. (Selah)
Ka hari te hunga e noho ana i tou whare: he whakamoemiti tonu ta ratou ki a koe. (Hera)
5 Blessed [is] the man whose strength [is] in thee; in whose heart [are] the ways [of them].
Ka hari te tangata ko tona kaha nei kei a koe: kei roto i o ratou ngakau nga huarahi ki reira.
6 [Who] passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.
Ka haere ratou ra te raorao o Paka, ka meinga e ratou hei puna: ngaro iho ano hoki nga poka i te ua.
7 They go from strength to strength, [every one of them] in Zion appeareth before God.
Ka haere atu ratou i te kaha ki te kaha; ka kitea ratou ki te aroaro o te Atua i Hiona.
8 O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
E Ihowa, e te Atua o nga mano, whakarongo ki taku inoi: tahuri mai tou taringa, e te Atua o Hakopa. (Hera)
9 Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thy anointed.
Titiro mai, e te Atua, e to matou whakangungu rakau: tirohia iho hoki te mata o tau tangata i whakawahi ai.
10 For a day in thy courts [is] better than a thousand. I had rather be a door-keeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
No te mea, he ra kotahi i ou whare, pai atu i nga ra kotahi mano: te tiaki tatau i te whare o toku Atua, pai atu ki ahau i te noho ki nga teneti o te kino.
11 For the LORD God [is] a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
He ra hoki a Ihowa te Atua, he whakangungu rakau: ka homai e Ihowa te atawhai me te kororia; e kore e kaiponuhia e ia tetahi mea pai ki te hunga e tapatahi ana te haere.
12 O LORD of hosts, blessed [is] the man that trusteth in thee.
E Ihowa o nga mano, ka hari te tangata e whakawhirinaki ana ki a koe.
