Psalms 62
1 For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm by David. My soul rests in God alone. My salvation is from him.
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi, ki a Ierutonu. He himene na Rawiri. Ko te Atua anake taku e tatari nei: kei a ia te whakaoranga moku.
2 He alone is my rock, my salvation, and my fortress. I will never be greatly shaken.
Ko ia anake toku kohatu, toku whakaoranga, toku pa hoki, e kore e nui toku ngaueuetanga.
3 How long will you assault a man? Would all of you throw him down, like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?
Kia pehea te roa o ta koutou tatau ki te tangata, kia whakamatea ai e koutou, e koutou katoa, ka rite ki te taiepa e tungou ana, ki te wawa ka tata te hinga?
4 They fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place. They delight in lies. They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. (Selah)
Heoi ano ta ratou e runanga ai ko te turaki i a ia i tona wahi teitei: e ahuareka ana ki te teka; e manaaki ana o ratou mangai, a e kanga ana a roto i a ratou. (Hera)
5 My soul, wait in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him.
Tatari, e toku wairua, ki te Atua anaki; ko ia taku e tumanako nei.
6 He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress. I will not be shaken.
Ko ia anake toku kohatu, toku whakaoranga, toku pa hoki; e kore ahau e whakangaueuetia.
7 My salvation and my honour is with God. The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.
Kei te Atua te whakaoranga moku, te kororia ano moku; kei te Atua te kohatu o toku kaha, toku piringa.
8 Trust in him at all times, you people. Pour out your heart before him. God is a refuge for us. (Selah)
Whakawhirinaki ki a ia i nga wa katoa, e te iwi, ringihia to koutou ngakau ki tona aroaro: hei piringa mo tatou te Atua (Hera)
9 Surely men of low degree are just a breath, and men of high degree are a lie. In the balances they will go up. They are together lighter than a breath.
He pono he mea memeha noa nga ware, he teka noa nga rangatira; ki te paunatia ratou, mama noa ake ratou tahi i te horihori.
10 Don’t trust in oppression. Don’t become vain in robbery. If riches increase, don’t set your heart on them.
Kaua e whakawhirinaki ki te tukino, kei wairangi hoki ki te pahua: ki te tini haere nga taonga, kei whakamanawa to koutou ngakau ki reira.
11 God has spoken once; twice I have heard this, that power belongs to God.
Kotahi korerotanga a te Atua, ka rua oku rongonga i tenei, no te Atua te kaha.
12 Also to you, Lord, belongs loving kindness, for you reward every man according to his work.
Nau ano, e te Ariki, te mahi tohu: rite tonu hoki ki tana mahi tau utu ki te tangata.
