Psalms

115

1Not unto us, O Jehovah, not unto us, But unto thy name give glory, For thy lovingkindness, and for thy truth's sake.
1¶ Aua ki a matou, e Ihowa, aua ki a matou, engari me hoatu te kororia ki tou ingoa: whakaaroa tou aroha, tou pono.
2Wherefore should the nations say, Where is now their God?
2Kia mea koia nga tauiwi: Kei hea ianei to ratou Atua?
3But our God is in the heavens: He hath done whatsoever he pleased.
3Kei te rangi ia to matou Atua; kua meatia e ia nga mea katoa i pai ai ia.
4Their idols are silver and gold, The work of men's hands.
4He hiriwa a ratou whakapakoko, he koura, he mahi na te ringa tangata.
5They have mouths, but they speak not; Eyes have they, but they see not;
5He mangai o ratou, a kahore e korero: he kanohi o ratou, a kahore e kite:
6They have ears, but they hear not; Noses have they, but they smell not;
6He taringa o ratou, a kahore e rongo: he ihu o ratou, a kahore e hongi:
7They have hands, but they handle not; Feet have they, but they walk not; Neither speak they through their throat.
7He ringa o ratou, a kahore e whawha: he waewae o ratou, a kahore e haere: kahore hoki o ratou korokoro e korero.
8They that make them shall be like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth in them.
8Ka rite ki a ratou o ratou kaihanga; ae ra, te hunga katoa ano e whakawhirinaki ana ki a ratou.
9O Israel, trust thou in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield.
9¶ E Iharaira, whakawhirinaki ki a Ihowa: ko ia to ratou awhina, to ratou whakangungu rakau.
10O house of Aaron, trust ye in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield.
10E te whare o Arona, whakawhirinaki ki a Ihowa: ko ia to ratou awhina, to ratou whakangungu rakau.
11Ye that fear Jehovah, trust in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield.
11E te hunga e wehi ana i a Ihowa, whakawhirinaki ki a Ihowa: ko ia to ratou awhina, to ratou whakangungu rakau.
12Jehovah hath been mindful of us; he will bless [us]: He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron.
12Kua mahara a Ihowa ki a tatou, mana tatou e manaaki: mana e manaaki te whare o Iharaira, mana e manaaki te whare o Arona.
13He will bless them that fear Jehovah, Both small and great.
13Ka manaakitia e ia te hunga e wehi ana ki a Ihowa, te iti, te rahi.
14Jehovah increase you more and more, You and your children.
14Ka tapiritia ano e Ihowa ki a koutou, ki a koutou tahi ko a koutou tamariki.
15Blessed are ye of Jehovah, Who made heaven and earth.
15He manaakitanga koutou na Ihowa, na te kaihanga o te rangi, o te whenua.
16The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah; But the earth hath he given to the children of men.
16Ko nga rangi, he rangi no Ihowa; ko te whenua ia, he mea homai nana ki nga tama a te tangata.
17The dead praise not Jehovah, Neither any that go down into silence;
17E kore nga tupapaku e whakamoemiti ki a Ihowa: me te hunga katoa ano e heke ana ki te wahangutanga.
18But we will bless Jehovah From this time forth and for evermore. Praise ye Jehovah.
18Ko matou ia ka whakapai ki a Ihowa aianei a ake ake. Whakamoemititia a Ihowa.
