Waiata 27
1 Na Rawiri. Ko Ihowa toku marama, toku whakaoranga; kia wehi ahau i a wai? Ko Ihowa te kaha o toku ora; ko wai e mataku ai ahau?
ElikaDavida. UThixo uyikukhanya kwami lensindiso yami ngizakwesaba bani na? UThixo uyinqaba yokuphila kwami ngubani engingamesaba na?
2 I te whakatatanga mai o te hunga kino, o oku hoariri, o oku hoa whainga, ki te kai i oku kikokiko, tutuki ana ratou, hinga ana.
Nxa ababi bengihlasela bezodlithiza inyama yami, lapho izitha zami labangizondayo bengihlasela, bazakhubeka bawe.
3 Ahakoa whakapae noa te ope i ahau e kore toku ngakau e wehi: ahakoa ara noa te pakanga ki ahau, ka au tonu ia ahau.
Loba impi ingivimbezela, inhliziyo yami kayizukwesaba; loba ngivukelwa yimpi, loba kunjalo ngizakuma isibindi.
4 Kotahi taku mea i inoi ai i a Ihowa, ko taku tena e rapu ai: kia noho i te whare o Ihowa i nga ra katoa e ora ai ahau, kia kite ai i te ataahua o Ihowa, kia ui ai i roto i tona temepara.
Yinye into engiyicelayo kuThixo, yilokhu engikudingayo: ukuba ngihlale endlini kaThixo zonke insuku zokuphila kwami, ngibuke ubuhle bukaThixo, lokuthi ngimdinge ethempelini lakhe.
5 Ka huna hoki ahau e ia ki tona teneti i te ra o te he, ka huna ki te wahi ngaro i tona tapenakara, ka hapainga ahau ki runga ki te kohatu.
Phela ngosuku lokuhlupheka uzangilondoloza emzini wakhe, uzangifihla esiphephelweni sethabanikeli lakhe angimise phezulu kwedwala elisesiqongweni.
6 Na, aianei ka teitei toku mahunga ki runga ake i oku hoariri, e karapoti nei i ahau; a ka patua e ahau i roto i tona tapenakara he whakahere hari; ka waiata ahau, ae ka himene ki a Ihowa.
Lapho-ke ikhanda lami lizaphakanyiswa ngaphezu kwezitha ezingihanqileyo; ethabanikeleni lakhe ngizakwenza umhlatshelo ngimemeza ngentokozo; ngizahlabelela ingoma zendumiso kuThixo.
7 Whakarongo mai ki toku reo, e Ihowa, ua karanga ahau, tohungia ahau, whakahokia mai hoki he kupu ki ahau.
Zwana ilizwi lami lapho ngimemeza Oh Thixo; woba lomusa kimi ungiphendule.
8 I a koe i mea, Rapua e koutou toku mata; ka mea toku ngakau ki a koe, ka rapu ahau i tou mata, e Ihowa.
Ithi inhliziyo yami Ngawe, “Dinga ubuso bakhe!” Ubuso Bakho, Thixo ngizabudinga.
9 Kaua tou mata e huna ki ahau, kaua tau pononga e peia atu ua riri koe: ko koe toku kaiawhina, kei mahue ahau i a koe, kei whakarerea e koe e te Atua o toku whakaoranga.
Ungangifihleli ubuso Bakho, ungayixotshi inceku yakho ngokuthukuthela; wena ubungumsizi wami. Ungangilahli loba ungidele, Oh Nkulunkulu, Msindisi wami.
10 Ki te whakarerea ahau e toku papa, e toku whaea, ko Ihowa hei tukunga atu moku.
Loba obaba lomama bengangidela, uThixo uzangemukela.
11 E Ihowa, whakaakona ahau ki tau ara; arahina ahau i te ara tika, he hoariri hoki oku.
Ngifundisa indlela Yakho, Oh Thixo; ngihola endleleni eqondileyo ngenxa yabancindezeli bami.
12 Kaua ahau e tukua ki te hiahia o oku hoariri; kua whakatika mai hoki ki ahau he kaiwhakapae teka, me te hunga manawa nanakia.
Unganginikeli entandweni yabangizondayo, ngoba ofakazi bamanga bayangivukela bevutha ulaka.
13 Kua ngohe ahau, me i kaua ahau i whakapono, tera ahau e kite i te pai o te Atua i te whenua o te ora.
Ngilokhu ngilesibindi ngalokhu: ngizakubona ukulunga kukaThixo emhlabeni wabaphilayo.
14 Taria a Ihowa: kia maia, a kia kaha tou ngakau; ina, taria a Ihowa.
Lindela uThixo qina ume isibindi ulindele uThixo.
