Waiata 70

1 Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Na Rawiri, hei whakamahara. Kia hohoro, e te Atua, ki te whakaora i ahau: e Ihowa, hohoro ki te awhina i ahau.

To the victorie `of Dauid, `to haue mynde. God, biholde thou in to myn heelp; Lord, hast thou to helpe me.

2 Kia whakama, kia pororaru ngatahi te hunga e rapu ana i toku wairua: kia whakahokia ki muri, kia whakama te hunga e hiahia ana kia he ahau.

Be thei schent, and aschamed; that seken my lijf. Be thei turned a bak; and schame thei, that wolen yuels to me.

3 Kia whakahokia ki muri mo to ratou whakama, te hunga e mea ana ki ahau, Ha, ha.

Be thei turned awei anoon, and schame thei; that seien to me, Wel! wel!

4 Kia hari, kia koa, ki a koe te hunga katoa e rapu ana i a koe; kia mea tonu te hunga e pai ana ki tau whakaoranga, Kia whakanuia te Atua.

Alle men that seken thee, make fulli ioie, and be glad in thee; and thei that louen thin heelthe, seie euere, The Lord be magnyfied.

5 Ko ahau ia, he iti, he rawakore; hohoro mai, e te Atua, ki ahau: ko koe toku awhina, toku kaiwhakaora; kaua ra e whakaroa, e Ihowa.

Forsothe Y am a nedi man, and pore; God, helpe thou me. Thou art myn helper and my delyuerere; Lord, tarye thou not.
