< Nnwom 16 >
1 Dawid mpaeɛbɔ. Bɔ me ho ban, Ao Onyankopɔn, na wo mu na menya hintabea.
He Mikitama na Rawiri. Tiakina ahau, e te Atua: e whakawhirinaki nei hoki ahau ki a koe.
2 Meka kyerɛɛ Awurade sɛ, “MʼAwurade ne wo; menni adepa biara ka wo ho.”
Kua mea ahau ki a Ihowa, Ko koe toku Ariki, kahore oku pai i tua atu i a koe.
3 Ahotefoɔ a wɔwɔ asase no so deɛ, wɔne animuonyamfoɔ a mʼanigyeɛ wɔ wɔn mu.
Ko te hunga tapu i runga i te whenua, te hunga pai rawa, kua ahau katoa toku ahuareka ki a ratou.
4 Wɔn a wɔdi anyame afoforɔ akyire no wɔn awerɛhoɔ bɛdɔɔso. Merenyi wɔn mogya apaeɛ no bi na meremfa mʼano memmɔ wɔn din.
Ka whakanuia nga mamae o te hunga e whakawhiti ana i a Ihowa mo tetahi atua ke: e kore e ringihia e ahau a ratou ringihanga toto, e kore ano o ratou ingoa e whakahuatia e oku ngutu.
5 Awurade, wode me kyɛfa ne me kuruwa ama me; woama me kyɛfa anya banbɔ.
Ko Ihowa te wahi i wehea mai moku, taku kapu hoki: ko koe te kaiwhakapumau i te wahanga maku.
6 Mʼahyeɛ akɔdeda mmea a ɛhɔ yɛ ahomeka; ampa ara mewɔ agyapadeɛ a ɛho yɛ anigye.
Kua takoto oku aho ki nga wahi ahuareka, ina, he wahi pai toku.
7 Mɛkamfo Awurade a ɔtu me fo; na anadwo mpo mʼakoma kyerɛkyerɛ me.
Ka whakapaingia e ahau a Ihowa, i whakamahara nei i ahau: ka whakaako ano hoki oku whatumanawa i ahau i te po.
8 Mehunu Awurade wɔ mʼani so daa nyinaa. Esiane sɛ ɔwɔ me nsa nifa enti, merenhinhim da.
Kua waiho tonu e ahau a Ihowa ki toku aroaro: kei toku ringa matau nei ia, e kore ahau e whakakorikoria.
9 Ɛno enti, me kra ani gye, na mede me tɛkrɛma di ahurisie; me onipadua nso bɛhome asomdwoeɛ mu,
Koia i koa ai toku ngakau, i whakamanamana ai toku kororia, i takoto tumanako ai ano oku kikokiko.
10 ɛfiri sɛ, worennya me awufoɔ mu. Na woremma wo Kronkronni no mporɔ. (Sheol )
No te mea e kore e waiho e koe toku wairua i te reinga, e kore e tukua tau Mea Tapu kia kite i te pirau. (Sheol )
11 Woakyerɛ me nkwagyeɛ kwan, na wobɛma mʼani agye wɔ wʼanim, na anika a ɛrensa da wɔ wo nifa so.
Ka whakakitea mai e koe ki ahau te huarahi o te ora; kei tou aroaro te hari nui, kei tou matau nga ahuareka e kore e mutu.
