< Psalms 112 >

1 Praise ye Yah! How happy is the man who revereth Yahweh, In his commandments, delighteth he greatly;
Whakamoemititia a Ihowa. Ka hari te tangata e wehi ana i a Ihowa, e aro nui ana ki ana whakahau.
2 Mighty in the earth, shall be his seed, The generation of the upright, shall be blessed;
Ka nui ona uri ki runga ki te whenua; ka manaakitia te whakatupuranga o te hunga tika.
3 Wealth and riches, shall be in his house, and, his righteousness, standeth for aye.
Kei tona whare te rawa, te taonga: ka pumau tonu tona tika, ake ake.
4 Risen—in darkness, is light to the upright, The gracious and compassionate and righteous.
Ka maea ake te marama i roto i te pouri ki te hunga tika: he atawhai ia, he aroha, he tika.
5 Well for a man showing favour and lending! He shall sustain his affairs with justice.
He pono ka whiwhi painga te tangata he atawhai, he ohaoha tana mahi: ka u ana kupu i te whakawakanga.
6 Surely, unto times age-abiding, shall he not be shaken, In remembrance, age-abiding, shall the righteous one remain;
E kore hoki ia e whakangaueuetia ake ake: ka maharatia tonutia te tangata tika ake ake.
7 Of evil tidings, shall he not be afraid, Established is his heart, led to trust in Yahweh;
E kore ia e mataku i te rongo kino: e u ana tona ngakau, e whakawhirinaki ana ki a Ihowa.
8 Upheld is his heart, he shall not be afraid, until that he gazeth on his foes.
Ka u tona ngakau, e kore ia e wehi, kia kite ra ano ia i tana i hiahia ai ki ona hoariri.
9 He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the needy, His righteousness, standeth for aye, His horn, shall be exalted in honour.
Kua tuwhaina e ia, kua hoatu ki te hunga rawakore: pumau tonu tona tika ake ake; ka ara tona haona i runga i te kororia.
10 The lawless one, shall see, and be indignant, his teeth, will he gnash and melt away, The craving of the lawless, shall vanish.
Ka kite te tangata kino, a ka pouri; ka pakiri ona niho, memeha iho: pirau iho te hiahia o te hunga kino.
