Psaumes 115

Non pas à nous, Seigneur, mais à ton nom

Aua ki a mātou, e Ihowā, aua ki a mātou, engari me hoatu te korōria ki tōu ingoa; whakaaroa tōu aroha, tōu pono. ²Kia mea koia ngā tauiwi; “Kei hea ianei tō rātou Atua?” ³Kei te rangi ia tō mātou Atua; kua meatia e ia ngā mea katoa i pai ai ia.

⁴He hiriwa ā rātou whakapakoko, he kōura, he mahi nā te ringa tāngata. ⁵He māngai ō rātou, ā, kāhore e kōrero; he kanohi ō rātou, ā, kāhore e kite. ⁶He taringa ō rātou, ā, kāhore e rongo: he ihu ō rātou, ā, kāhore e hongi.

⁷He ringa ō rātou, ā, kāhore e whāwhā; he waewae ō rātou, ā, kāhore e haere; kāhore hoki ō rātou korokoro e kōrero. ⁸Ka rite ki a rātou ō rātou kaihanga; āe rā, te hunga katoa anō e whakawhirinaki ana ki a rātou. ⁹E Īharaira, whakawhirinaki ki a Ihowā! Ko ia tō rātou āwhina, tō rātou whakangungu rākau.

¹⁰E te whare o Ārona, whakawhirinaki ki a Ihowā! Ko ia tō rātou āwhina, tō rātou whakangungu rākau. ¹¹E te hunga e wehi ana i a Ihowā, whakawhirinaki ki a Ihowā! Ko ia tō rātou āwhina, tō rātou whakangungu rākau. ¹²Kua mahara a Ihowā ki a tātou; māna tātou e manaaki; māna e manaaki te whare o Īharaira; māna e manaaki te whare o Ārona; ¹³ka manaakitia e ia te hunga e wehi ana ki a Ihowā, te iti, te rahi.

¹⁴Ka tāpiritia anō e Ihowā ki a koutou, ki a koutou tahi ko ā koutou tamariki. ¹⁵He manaakitanga koutou nā Ihowā, nā te kaihanga o te rangi, o te whenua. ¹⁶Ko ngā rangi, he rangi nō Ihowā; ko te whenua ia, he mea hōmai nāna ki ngā tama a te tangata.

¹⁷E kore ngā tūpāpaku e whakamoemiti ki a Ihowā; me te hunga katoa anō e heke ana ki te wahangūtanga. ¹⁸Ko mātou ia ka whakapai ki a Ihowā āianei, ā ake ake. Whakamoemititia a Ihowā!
