Waiata 51

1 Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He himene na Rawiri, i te taenga o Natana poropiti ki a ia, mo tona haerenga ki a Patehepa. Tohungia ahau, e te Atua, kia rite ki tou atawhai: kia rite ki tou aroha nui te murunga o oku he.

To victorie, the salm of Dauid; `whanne Nathan the prophete cam to hym, whanne he entride to Bersabee. God, haue thou merci on me; bi thi greet merci. And bi the mychilnesse of thi merciful doyngis; do thou awei my wickidnesse.

2 Horoia rawatia toku kino: kia ma hoki toku hara.

More waische thou me fro my wickidnesse; and clense thou me fro my synne.

3 E whaki ana hoki ahau i aku mahi tutu: kei toku aroaro tonu toku hara.

For Y knouleche my wickidnesse; and my synne is euere ayens me.

4 He hara ki a koe, ki a koe anake, toku; i meatia ano tenei he ki tou aroaro; kia tika ai koe i tau korerotanga, kia ma ai hoki ina whakawa.

I haue synned to thee aloone, and Y haue do yuel bifor thee; that thou be iustified in thi wordis, and ouercome whanne thou art demed. For lo!

5 Na i whakaahuatia ahau i roto i te kino, i runga ano i te hara toku whakahaputanga ki roto ki toku whaea.

Y was conseyued in wickednessis; and my modir conceyuede me in synnes.

6 Na ko tau e matenui ai ko te pono i nga wahi o roto, a ka whakaakona oku wahi ngaro e koe ki te whakaaro nui.

For lo! thou louedist treuthe; thou hast schewid to me the vncerteyn thingis, and pryuy thingis of thi wisdom.

7 Purea ahau ki te hihopa, a ka ma ahau; horoia ahau, a ka ma ke atu i te hukarere.

Lord, sprenge thou me with ysope, and Y schal be clensid; waische thou me, and Y schal be maad whijt more than snow.

8 Meinga kia rongo ahau i te hari, i te koa, a ka whakamanamana nga iwi i whatiia nei e koe.

Yyue thou ioie, and gladnesse to myn heryng; and boonys maad meke schulen ful out make ioye.

9 Huna tou mata ki oku hara; a murua katoatia oku kino.

Turne awei thi face fro my synnes; and do awei alle my wickidnesses.

10 Hanga, e te Atua, he ngakau ma ki roto ki ahau: whakahoutia hoki ki roto ki ahau he wairua tika.

God, make thou a clene herte in me; and make thou newe a riytful spirit in my entrailis.

11 Kaua ahau e maka i tou aroaro; kaua hoki tou wairua tapu e tangohia i ahau.

Caste thou me not awei fro thi face; and take thou not awei fro me thin hooli spirit.

12 Whakahokia mai ki ahau te hari o tau whakaoranga: tautokona hoki ahau ki te wairua kakama.

Yiue thou to me the gladnesse of thyn helthe; and conferme thou me with the principal spirit.

13 Ko reira ahau whakaako ai i au ara ki te hunga tutu; a ka tahuri te hunga hara ki a koe.

I schal teche wickid men thi weies; and vnfeithful men schulen be conuertid to thee.

14 Whakaorangia ahau i te hara toto, e te Atua, e te Atua o toku whakaoranga, a ka waiatatia au mahi tika e toku arero.

God, the God of myn helthe, delyuere thou me fro bloodis; and my tunge schal ioyfuli synge thi riytfulnesse.

15 Whakatuwheratia oku ngutu, e te Ariki; a ka puaki i toku mangai te whakamoemiti ki a koe.

Lord, `opene thou my lippis; and my mouth schal telle thi preysyng.

16 Kahore nei hoki koe e aro ki te patunga tapu; penei kua hoatu e ahau: kahore koe e ahuareka ki te tahunga tinana.

For if thou haddist wold sacrifice, Y hadde youe; treuli thou schalt not delite in brent sacrifices.

17 Ko nga patunga tapu ma te Atua he wairua maru: e kore koe e whakahawea e te Atua, ki te ngakau maru, ki te ngakau iro.

A sacrifice to God is a spirit troblid; God, thou schalt not dispise a contrit herte and `maad meke.

18 Kia pai koe ki te atawhai i Hiona: hanga nga taiepa o Hiruharama.

Lord, do thou benygneli in thi good wille to Syon; that the wallis of Jerusalem be bildid.

19 Ko reira koe pai ai ki nga patunga tapu o te tika, ki nga tahunga tinana, he mea whakaeke katoa: ko reira ratou whakaeke ai i nga puru ki runga ki tou aata.

Thanne thou schalt take plesauntli the sacrifice of riytfulnesse, offryngis, and brent sacrifices; thanne thei schulen putte calues on thin auter.
