< Waiata 30 >
1 He hemene, he waiata mo te tainga o te kawa o te whare. Na Rawiri. Ka whakanui ahau i a koe, e Ihowa; nau hoki ahau i hapai ake, a kihai i tukua oku hoariri kia hari ki ahau.
Nitakutukuza wewe, Yahwe, kwa kuwa umeniinua na haujawaruhusu maadui zangu juu yangu.
2 E Ihowa, e toku Atua, i karanga ahau ki a koe, a kore ake toku mate i a koe.
Yahwe Mungu wangu, nilikulilia wewe kwa ajili ya msaada, nawe ukaniponya.
3 E Ihowa, nau i whakaputa ake toku wairua i te reinga; nau ahau i whakaora kei heke ki te poka. (Sheol )
Yahwe, wewe umeitoa roho yangu kuzimuni; nawe umeniweka hai mbali na kaburi. (Sheol )
4 Himene ki a Ihowa, e tana hunga tapu, whakawhetai hoki ki tona ingoa tapu.
Mwimbieni sifa Yahwe, ninyi waaminifu wake! Mshukuruni Bwana mkumbukapo utakatifu wake.
5 He iti hoki te wahi e riri ai ia; he oranga ki te manakohia e ia: e tau iho te tangi i te ahiahi, a i te ata he hari.
Kwa kuwa hasira yake ni ya muda tu; bali neema yake yadumu milele. Kilio huja usiku, bali furaha huja asubuhi.
6 I mea ahau i toku wa i kake ai, E kore ahau e whakangaueuetia a muri ake nei.
Kwa ujasiri nilisema, “Sitatikiswa kamwe.”
7 He manakohanga nau, e Ihowa, i u ai i a koe te tu o toku maunga; i huna e koe tou mata a raru iho ahau.
Yahwe, kwa neema yako uliniweka mimi kama mlima imara; lakini ulipouficha uso wako, nilisumbuka.
8 E Ihowa, i karanga ahau ki a koe, i inoi hoki ki a Ihowa.
Nilikulilia wewe, Yahwe, na kuomba msaada kwa Bwana wangu!
9 He aha te pai o oku toto ina heke ahau ki te poka? Ma te puehu koia koe e whakamoemiti? mana oti e whakapuaki tou pono?
Kuna faida gani katika kifo changu, kama nitaenda kaburini? Je, mavumbi yatakusifu wewe? Yatatangaza uaminifu wako?
10 Whakarongo, e Ihowa, tohungia hoki ahau: e Ihowa, ko koe hei awhina moku.
Sikia, Yahwe, na unihurumie! Yahwe, uwe msaidizi wangu.
11 Kua puta ke i a koe taku tangi hei kanikani: kua wewete i toku kakahu taratara, a whitikiria ana ahau e koe ki te koa;
Wewe umegeuza kuomboleza kwangu kuwa kucheza; wewe umeyaondoa mavazi yangu ya magunia na kunivisha furaha.
12 Hei mea e himene ai toku kororia ki a koe, kore ake e wahangu. E Ihowa, e toku Atua, ka whakawhetai ahau ki a koe ake ake.
Hivyo sasa utukufu wangu utakuimbia sifa wewe na hautanyamaza; Yahwe Mungu wangu, nitakushukuru wewe milele!
