Waiata 20

1 Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He himene na Rawiri. Ma Ihowa e whakahoki he kupu ki a koe i te ra o te he; ma te ingoa o te Atua o Hakopa koe e tiaki;

Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide. Yehova akuyankhe pamene uli pa msautso; dzina la Mulungu wa Yakobo likuteteze.

5 Ka hari matou ki tau whakaoranga, ka whakatu hoki i o matou kara i runga i te ingoa o to matou Atua: ma Ihowa e whakarite au inoi katoa.

6 Katahi ahau ka matau e whakaora ana a Ihowa i tana tangata i whakawahi ai, ka whakahoki kupu ia ki a ia i tona rangi tapu, me te kaha ano tona ringa matau ki te whakaora.

Tsopano ndadziwa kuti Yehova amapulumutsa wodzozedwa wake; Iye amamuyankha kuchokera kumwamba ku malo ake opatulika ndi mphamvu yopulumutsa ya dzanja lake lamanja.

7 Ko ta etahi he hariata, ko ta etahi he hoiho: ko tatou ia ka whakahua i te ingoa o Ihowa, o to tatou Atua.

Inu Yehova, pulumutsani mfumu! Tiyankheni pamene tikuyitanani!
