¹¶ He himene na Rawiri, i tona omanga atu i tana tama i a Apoharama. E Ihowa, ano te tini o oku hoariri, he tokomaha te hunga e whakatika mai ana ki ahau.

¹Yahweh, how my adversaries have increased! Many are those who rise up against me.

²He tokomaha te mea ana ki toku wairua, hore rawa he whakaoranga mona i te Atua. (Hera.

²Many there are who say of my soul, “There is no help for him in God The Hebrew word rendered “God” is “Elohim.” .” Selah.

³Ko koe ia, e Ihowa, hei whakangungu rakau moku, hei kororia moku, hei kaiwhakaara i toku matenga.

³But you, Yahweh, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.

⁴¶ I karanga toku reo ki a Ihowa: a whakahoki kupu mai ana ia ki ahau i tona maunga tapu. (Hera.

⁴I cry to Yahweh with my voice, and he answers me out of his holy hill. Selah.

⁵I takoto ahau, i moe; i ara ake ano; na Ihowa hoki ahau i whakamau ake.

⁵I laid myself down and slept. I awakened; for Yahweh sustains me.

⁶E kore ahau e mataku i nga mano tini o te iwi, kua whakatika mai nei ki ahau karopoti noa.

⁶I will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people who have set themselves against me on every side.

⁷Whakatika, e Ihowa; whakaorangia ahau, e toku Atua: nau hoki i patu te kauae o oku hoariri katoa; mangungu noa i a koe nga niho o te hunga kino.

⁷Arise, Yahweh! Save me, my God! For you have struck all of my enemies on the cheek bone. You have broken the teeth of the wicked.

⁸Na Ihowa te whakaoranga: kei runga i tau iwi tau manaaki. (Hera.

⁸Salvation belongs to Yahweh. Your blessing be on your people. Selah.
