Psalms 86
1 A Prayer of David. Bow down thy ear, O LORD, hear me: for I [am] poor and needy.
He inoi na Rawiri. Whakatitahatia iho tou taringa, e Ihowa whakahokia mai he kupu ki ahau; he ware hoki ahau, he rawakore.
2 Preserve my soul; for I [am] holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.
Tiakina toku wairua: he tapu hoki ahau; mau, e toku Atua, e whakaora tau pononga e whakawhirinaki atu nei ki a koe.
3 Be merciful to me, O LORD: for I cry to thee daily.
Tohungia ahau, e te Ariki: e karanga nei hoki ahau ki a koe i te ra roa nei.
4 Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for to thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.
Whakaharitia te wairua o tau pononga; ka ara atu nei hoki toku wairua, e te Ariki, ki a koe.
5 For thou, LORD, [art] good, and ready to forgive; and abundant in mercy to all them that call upon thee.
He pai hoki koe, e te Ariki, he ngawari: e ranea ana hoki tau mahi tohu ki te hunga katoa e karanga ana ki a koe.
6 Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.
Tahuri mai tou taringa, e Ihowa, ki taku inoi: whakarongo kitoku reo unene.
7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.
Ka karanga ahau ki a koe i te ra o toku pouri: e whakahoki kupu mai hoki koe ki ahau.
8 Among the gods [there is] none like thee, O LORD; neither [are there any works] like thy works.
Kahore he rite mou, e te Ariki, i roto i nga atua: kahore hoki he rite mo au mahi.
9 All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O LORD; and shall glorify thy name.
Ka haere mai nga iwi katoa i hanga e koe, a ka koropiko ki tou aroaro, e te Ariki; ka whakakororia hoki i tou ingoa.
10 For thou [art] great, and doest wondrous things: thou [art] God alone.
He nui hoki koe, e mahi ana i nga mea whakamiharo: ko koe anake te Atua.
11 Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.
Whakaakona ahau ki tau ara, e Ihowa; ka haere ahau i runga i tou pono: whakatapatahitia toku ngakau ki te wehi i tou ingoa.
12 I will praise thee, O LORD my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.
Ka whakamoemiti katoa toku ngakau ki a koe, e te Ariki, e toku Atua: ka whakakororia ano i tou ingoa ake ake.
13 For great [is] thy mercy towards me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell. (Sheol h7585)
He nui hoki tau mahi tohu ki ahau: a kua whakaorangia e koe toku wairua i te reinga i raro riro. (Sheol h7585)
14 O God, the proud have risen against me, and the assemblies of violent [men] have sought after my soul; and have not set thee before them.
E te Atua, kua whakatika ki ahau te hunga whakakake: kua whaia ano toku wairua e te huihuinga o te hunga tutu; kahore hoki koe e waiho i to ratou aroaro.
15 But thou, O LORD, [art] a God full of compassion, and gracious; long-suffering, and abundant in mercy and truth.
Ko koe ia, e te Ariki, he Atua atawhai, he tohu tangata: he puhoi ki te riri, e hua ana te mahi tohu me te pono.
16 O turn to me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength to thy servant, and save the son of thy handmaid.
Tahuri mai ki ahau, tohungia hoki ahau: homai tou kaha ki tau pononga, whakaorangia te tama a tau pononga wahine.
17 Show me a token for good; that they who hate me may see [it], and be ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast helped me, and comforted me.
Whakakitea mai ki ahau he tohu mo te pai: kia kite ai te hunga e kino ana ki ahau, kia whakama ai: nou e Ihowa i awhina i ahau, i whakamarie i ahau.
