Psalms 21
1 Yahweh, ([I], your king am glad/the king is glad) because you have caused me/him to be strong. (I rejoice/he rejoices) greatly because you have rescued me/him [from my/his enemies].
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He himene na Rawiri. Ka hari te kingi ki tou kaha, e Ihowa; ano te nui o tona whakamanamana ki tau whakaoranga!
2 You have given me/him the things that I/he [SYN] desired and you have not refused to do what I requested you to do.
Kua homai e koe ki a ia ta tona ngakau i hiahia ai; kihai ano i kaiponuhia e koe ta ona ngutu i inoi ai. (Hera)
3 In answer to my/his prayer, you enabled me/him to succeed and prosper. You placed a gold crown on my/his head.
Kei mua nei hoki koe i a ia e homai ana i nga manaakitanga o te pai; karaunatia ana e koe tona matenga ki te tino koura.
4 I/He asked you to enable me/him to live [for a long time], and that is what you gave me/him, a very long [HYP] life.
He ora tana i inoi ai i a koe, a kua homai e koe ki a ia, he roa noa atu nga ra ake ake.
5 (I am/He is) greatly honored because you have helped me/him to defeat my/his enemies; you have made me/him famous.
He nui tona kororia i tau whakaoranga: uhia ana ia e koe ki te honore, ki te kororia.
6 You will bless me/him forever, and you have caused me/him to be joyful in your presence.
Nau hoki ia i mea kia manaakitia rawatia ake ake: whakaharitia ana ia e koe ki te koa o tou mata.
7 Yahweh, you are God Almighty, and (I trust/the king trusts) in you. Because you faithfully love me/him, disastrous things will never happen to me/him.
E whakawhirinaki ana hoki te kingi ki a Ihowa; e kore ano ia e whakangaueuetia, he atawhai hoki no te Runga Rawa.
8 You will enable me/him to capture [MTY] all my/his enemies and all those who hate me/him.
Ka mau i tou ringa ou hoariri katoa: ka mau i tou ringa matau te hunga e kino ana ki a koe.
9 When you appear, you will throw them into a fiery furnace. Because you are angry [with them], you will get rid of them; the fire will burn them up.
Ka meinga ratou e koe, kia rite ki te oumu kapura i te wa e riri ai koe: e horomia ratou e Ihowa ina weriweri ia, a ma te kapura ratou e kai.
10 You will remove their children from this earth; their descendants will all disappear.
Ka whakamotitia e koe o ratou hua i runga i te whenua, o ratou uri i waenganui o nga tama a te tangata.
11 They planned to harm you, but what they plan will never succeed.
He kino hoki ta ratou i whakatakoto ai mou, he mahi nanakia ta ratou i whakaaro ai, kihai nei i taea e ratou.
12 You will cause them to run away [IDM] by shooting arrows at them.
Mo reira ka meinga e koe kia tahuri o ratou tuara, ina whakatihaia e koe au pere i runga i au aho ki o ratou mata.
13 Yahweh, show us that you are very strong! When you do that, while we sing we will praise you because you are very powerful.
Kia whakanuia koe, e Ihowa, i runga i tou kaha: ka waiata matou, ka himene ki tou nui.
