Psalms 66
1 To the chief Musician, A Song [or] Psalm. Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands:
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He himene, he waiata. Hamama, e te whenua katoa, ki te Atua:
2 Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.
Himenetia te kororia o tona ingoa, kia whai kororia te whakamoemiti ki a ia.
3 Say unto God, How terrible [art thou in] thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.
Mea atu ki te Atua, Ano te wehi o au mahi! Ma te nui o tou kaha e ngohengohe ai ou hoariri ki a koe.
4 All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing [to] thy name. (Selah)
E koropiko katoa te whenua ki a koe; ka himene ki a koe; ka himene ratou ki tou ingoa. (Hera)
5 Come and see the works of God: [he is] terrible [in his] doing toward the children of men.
Haere mai kia kite i nga mahi a te Atua: mataku rawa tana mahi ki nga tama a te tangata.
6 He turned the sea into dry [land: ] they went through the flood on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
Nana i mea te moana hei tuawhenua: haere a waewae ana ratou ra roto i te awa; hari ana matou ki a ia i reira.
7 He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. (Selah)
Ko tona kawanatanga tuturu tonu i runga i tona kaha; e titiro ana ona kanohi ki nga tauiwi; kei whakakake te hunga tutu. (Hera)
8 O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:
Whakapaingia to tatou Atua, e nga iwi; kia rangona te reo whakamoemiti ki a ia.
9 Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.
Nana nei hoki i mau ai to tatou wairua ki te ora, kahore hoki e tukua e ia o tatou waewae kia nekehia.
10 For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.
Kua whakamatauria hoki matou e koe, e te Atua: whakarewaia ana matou e koe, ano he hiriwa e whakarewaia ana.
11 Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our loins.
Kua kawea nei matou e koe ki roto ki te kupenga: whakapikaua ana e koe te mea whakamamae ki o matou hope.
12 Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy [place].
I meinga ano e koe o matou upoko kia ekengia hoihotia e te tangata; i ra roto matou i te kapura, i te wai: heoi whakaputaina mai ana matou e koe ki te wahi momona.
13 I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows,
Ka tomo ahau me nga tahunga tinana ki tou whare; ka whakamana ahau i aku kupu taurangi ki a koe,
14 Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.
Era i puaki i oku ngutu, i korerotia e toku mangai i ahau e pouri ana.
15 I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. (Selah)
Ka whakaekea e ahau mau nga mea momona hei tahunga tinana, ngatahi ano me te mea kakara o nga hipi toa; ka tukua e ahau he puru, he koati. (Hera)
16 Come [and] hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.
Haere mai, whakarongo, e koutou katoa e wehi ana ki te Atua, a maku e whakapuaki tana i mea ai ki toku wairua.
17 I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
I tangi toku mangai ki a ia: i whakanuia ano ia e toku arero.
18 If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear [me: ]
Ki te whakaaroa e toku ngakau te he, e kore te Ariki e whakarongo mai.
19 [But] verily God hath heard [me; ] he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
Nei ra he pono kua whakarongo te Atua, kua tahuri ia ki toku reo inoi.
20 Blessed [be] God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
Kia whakapaingia te Atua, kihai nei i whakapeau ke i taku inoi, i tana atawhai hoki ki ahau.
