Psalms 60
1 Unto the end. For those who will be changed, with the inscription of a title, of David himself, for instruction: when he set fire to Mesopotamia of Syria and Sobal, and Joab turned back and struck Idumea, in the valley of the salt pits, twelve thousand men. O God, you have rejected us, and you have ruined us. You became angry, and yet you have been merciful to us.
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Huhana Erutu. He Mikitama, na Rawiri, hei whakaako. No tana whawhaitanga ki a Aramanaharaima raua ko Aramatopa. Na hoki ana a Ioapa, a patua ana e ia a Eroma ki te Raorao Tote, kotahi tekau ma rua mano. E te Atua, kua pa nga matou e koe, kua oti matou te whakamarara e koe, kua riri koe; tahuri mai ano ki a matou.
2 You have moved the earth, and you have disturbed it. Heal its breaches, for it has been moved.
Wiri ana te whenua i a koe: kua ngatata i a koe: whakakapia ona wahi pakaru; e ru ana hoki.
3 You have revealed to your people difficulties. You have made us drink the wine of remorse.
He mea pakeke kua whakakitea e koe ki tau iwi, kua oti matou te whakainu e koe ki te waina e wiri ai.
4 You have given a warning sign to those who fear you, so that they may flee from before the face of the bow, so that your beloved may be delivered.
Kua homai e koe he kara ki te hunga e wehi ana i a koe: kia whakakitea hei mea mo te pono. (Hera)
5 Save me with your right hand, and hear me.
Hei mea e mawhiti ai au e aroha ai: ma tou matau e whakaora, whakahokia mai hoki he kupu ki ahau.
6 God has spoken in his holy place: I will rejoice, and I will divide Shechem, and I will measure the steep valley of the tabernacles.
Kua korero te Atua i runga i tona tapu; ka hari ahau, ka kotikoti i Hekeme, ka roherohe hoki i te raorao o Hukota.
7 Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine. And Ephraim is the strength of my head. Judah is my king.
Noku Kireara, noku ano a Manahi, ko Eparaima ano hoki te kaha o toku matenga; ko Hura taku kaiwhakatakoto ture;
8 Moab is the cooking pot of my hope. Into Idumea, I will extend my shoe. To me, the foreigners have been made subject.
Ko Moapa taku oko horoi; ka maka e ahau toku hu ki runga ki Eroma: e Pirihitia, ko ahau hei whakamanamana mau.
9 Who will lead me into the fortified city? Who will lead me all the way to Idumea?
Ma wai ahau e kawe ki te pa kaha? Na wai ahau i arahi ki Eroma?
10 Will not you, O God, who has rejected us? And will not you, O God, go out with our armies?
He teka ranei, e te Atua, kua panga matou e koe? kahore hoki koe, e te Atua, e haere tahi me a matou taua.
11 Grant us help from tribulation. For salvation from man is empty.
Homai he awhina mo matou ki o matou hoariri: he teka noa hoki te awhina a te tangata.
12 In God, we will act virtuously. And those who trouble us, he will lead to nothing.
Ma te Atua tatou ka toa ai: mana hoki e takahi ki raro o tatou hoa whawhai.
