Salmos 8
Qué es el hombre
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi: Kititi. He hīmene nā Rāwiri. E Ihowā, e tō mātou Ariki, anō te nui o tōu ingoa i te whenua katoa! Pakū ana i a koe tōu korōria ki runga ake i ngā rangi! 2Ū pū i a koe te kaha o te māngai o ngā kōhungahunga, o ngā mea ngote ū hei mea mō ōu hoariri, hei pēhi mō te hoariri, mō te kairapu utu. 3Ka titiro ahau ki āu rangi, ki te mahi a ōu maihao, ki te marama, ki ngā whetū, i hangā nei e koe; 4he aha te tangata i maharatia ai e koe, te tama rānei a te tangata i tirohia ai ia e koe?
5Nohinohi nei te wāhi i whakaititia iho ai ia e koe i te Atua, karaunatia ana ia e koe ki te korōria, ki te hōnore. 6Waiho iho e koe hei kīngi mō ngā mahi a ōu ringa; kua waiho e koe ngā mea katoa i raro i ōna waewae; 7ngā hipi katoa, ngā pūru, me ngā kīrehe katoa o te pārae; 8te manu o te rangi, me te ika o te moana, e tere nei i ngā ara o ngā moana.
9E Ihowā, e tō mātou Ariki, anō te nui o tōu ingoa i te whenua katoa!
