Waiata 25
1 Na Rawiri. Ka ara nei toku wairua ki a koe, e Ihowa.
Kuwe, Nkosi, ngiphakamisela umphefumulo wami.
2 E toku Atua, ko koe toku whakawhirinakitanga: kei whakama ahau, aua oku hoariri e tukua kia whakaputa ki ahau.
Nkulunkulu wami, ngithembela kuwe; kangingayangeki; izitha zami kazingathokozi phezu kwami.
3 Ae, aua tetahi o te hunga e tatari ana ki a koe e tukua kia whakama: kia whakama te hunga e tinihanga noa ana.
Yebo, kungayangeki loyedwa kulabo abakulindelayo; kabayangeke labo abaphambukayo kungelasizatho.
4 Whakakitea ki ahau au ara, e Ihowa; whakaakona ahau ki au huarahi.
Ngazisa izindlela zakho, Nkosi, ungifundise imikhondo yakho.
5 Arahina ahau i tou pono, whakaakona hoki ahau: ko koe hoki te Atua o toku whakaoranga; pau noa te ra i ahau e tatari nei ki a koe.
Ngikhokhelela eqinisweni lakho, ungifundise, ngoba unguNkulunkulu wosindiso lwami; ngilindele wena usuku lonke.
6 E Ihowa, kia mahara ki au mahi tohu, ki au mahi aroha; nonamata riro hoki ena.
Khumbula izihawu zakho, Nkosi, lobubele bakho, ngoba kwakukhona kusukela phakade.
7 Kaua e maharatia nga hara o toku tamarikitanga, me oku kino: mahara mai koe ki ahau, e Ihowa, kia rite ki tau mahi tohu, kia whakaaro ki tou pai.
Ungazikhumbuli izono zobutsha bami leziphambeko zami; ngokomusa wakho wena ungikhumbule, ngenxa yokulunga kwakho, Nkosi.
8 He pai, he tika a Ihowa, a ka whakaakona e ia te hunga hara ki te huarahi.
INkosi ilungile iqondile; ngakho-ke izazifundisa izoni ngendlela.
9 Ka arahina e ia te hunga mahaki i runga i te whakawa: ka akona hoki e ia te hunga mahaki ki tana ara.
Izabakhokhela abathobekileyo ekwahlulelweni, ibafundise abathobekileyo indlela yayo.
10 He mahi tohu, he pono nga ara katoa o Ihowa ki te hunga e pupuri ana i tana kawenata, i ana whakaaturanga.
Zonke indlela zeNkosi zingumusa leqiniso kulabo abalondoloza isivumelwano sayo lezifakazelo zayo.
11 Kia mahara ki tou ingoa, e Ihowa, a murua toku kino, he nui nei hoki.
Ngenxa yebizo lakho, Nkosi, thethelela isiphambeko sami, ngoba sikhulu.
12 Ko wai te tangata e wehi ana ki a Ihowa? Ka whakaako ia i a ia ki te ara e pai ai ia.
Nguwuphi umuntu owesaba iNkosi? Izamfundisa ngendlela ezayikhetha.
13 Ka noho tona wairua i runga i te pai, a ka riro te whenua i tona uri.
Umphefumulo wakhe uzahlala ebuhleni, lenzalo yakhe izalidla ilifa lelizwe.
14 Kei te hunga e wehi ana i a ia te mea ngaro a Ihowa; a mana e whakakite ki a ratou tana kawenata.
Imfihlo yeNkosi ingeyabayesabayo, izabazisa isivumelwano sayo.
15 E tau tonu ana oku kanohi ki a Ihowa; mana hoki e unu ake oku waewae i te kupenga.
Amehlo ami ahlala eseNkosini, ngoba yiyo ezakhupha inyawo zami embuleni.
16 Tahuri mai ki ahau, tohungia hoki ahau; he mokemoke hoki ahau, e mamae ana te ngakau.
Phendukela kimi, ube lomusa kimi, ngoba ngilesizungu, ngihluphekile.
17 Kua whakanuia nga whakapawera o toku ngakau: whakaputaina ahau i roto i nga mea e pehi nei i ahau.
Inkathazo zenhliziyo yami zanda, ungikhuphe ezinhluphekweni zami.
18 Tirohia toku mate me toku mamae, a murua katoatia oku hara.
Khangela inhlupheko yami losizi lwami, uthethelele zonke izono zami.
19 Tirohia mai oku hoariri, he tokomaha hoki ratou: a he nanakia te kino e kino nei ratou ki ahau.
Khangela izitha zami ngoba zinengi, ziyangizonda ngenzondo elesihluku.
20 Tiakina toku wairua, a whakaorangia ahau: kei whakama ahau; e whakawhirinaki ana hoki ahau ki a koe.
Londoloza umphefumulo wami, ungikhulule; kangingayangeki, ngoba ngiphephela kuwe.
21 Tukua ma te ngakau tapatahi, ma te tika ahau e tiaki; e tumanako ana hoki ahau ki a koe.
Ubuqotho lokuqonda kakungilondoloze, ngoba ngilindele wena.
22 Hokona, e te Atua, a Iharaira i roto i ona whakapawera katoa.
Nkulunkulu, hlenga uIsrayeli kuzo zonke inkathazo zakhe.
