Psalm 119:1-88
Maori Bible
AREPE
119 Ka hari te hunga he tapatahi nei i te ara, e haere nei i te ture a Ihowa.
2 Ka hari te hunga e mau ana ki ana whakaaturanga; e whakapaua ana o ratou ngakau ki te rapu i a ia.
3 Ae, e kore ratou e mahi i te kino; e haere ana ratou i ana ara.
4 Kua oti matou te whakahau ki au akoranga, kia ata puritia e matou.
5 Aue, me i whakatikaia toku ara ki te pupuri i au akoranga!
6 Ko reira ahau ka kore ai e whakama: i ahau ka whai whakaaro nei ki au whakahau katoa.
7 Ka whakamoemiti ahau ki a koe i runga i te ngakau tika, ina ako ahau i au whakaritenga tika.
8 Ka puritia e ahau au tikanga: kaua ahau e whakarerea rawatia.
PETA
9 He aha te mea e ma ai i te taitamariki tona ara? kia rite ki tau kupu tana whakamaharatanga iho.
10 Kua whakapaua e ahau toku ngakau ki te rapu i a koe: kaua ahau e tukua kia kotiti ke i au whakahau.
11 Kua whakatakotoria e ahau tau kupu ki roto ki toku ngakau, kei hara ahau ki a koe.
12 E Ihowa, ka whakapaingia koe: whakaakona ahau ki au tikanga.
13 Kua whakapuakina e oku ngutu nga whakaritenga katoa a tou mangai.
14 Ko toku koa i te ara o au whakaaturanga, me te mea mo nga taonga katoa.
15 Ka whakaaroaro ahau ki au ako, a ka whai mahara ki au huarahi.
16 He oranga ngakau ki ahau au tikanga: e kore ahau e wareware ki tau kupu.
KIMERE
17 Kia atawhai ki tau pononga, kia ora ai ahau; kia puritia ai hoki tau kupu.
18 Whakatirohia oku kanohi kia kite ai ahau i nga mea whakamiharo i roto i tau ture.
19 He manene ahau i runga i te whenua: kaua au whakahau e huna ki ahau.
20 Ka ngawha toku wairua i te matenui atu ki au whakaritenga i nga wa katoa.
21 Kua riria e koe te hunga whakakake kua oti nei te kanga, e kotiti ke nei i au whakahau.
22 Parea atu i ahau te tawai me te whakahawea: kua mau hoki ahau ki au whakaaturanga.
23 I noho ano hoki nga rangatira ki te korero kino moku: otira e whakaaro ana tau pononga ki au tikanga.
24 Ko au whakaaturanga ano toku oranga ngakau, oku hoa whakatakoto whakaaro.
TARETE
25 Piri tonu toku wairua ki te puehu; whakahauoratia ahau kia rite ki atu kupu.
26 I whakaaturia e ahau oku ara, a whakahoki kupu ana koe ki ahau: whakaakona ahau ki au tikanga.
27 Meinga ahau kia matau ki te ara o au ako: kia whakaaroaro ai ahau ki au mahi whakamiharo.
28 E maturuturu iho ana toku wairua i te pouri: kia rite ki tau kapu tau whakau ake i ahau.
29 Whakamataratia atu i ahau te ara o te teka: kia atawhai mai hoki, a homai tau ture.
30 Kua whiriwhiria e ahau te ara o te pono: ka waiho e ahau au whakaritenga ki toku aroaro.
31 Piri tonu ahau ki au whakaaturanga: e Ihowa, kei whakama ahau.
32 Ka oma ahau i te ara o au whakahau, ina whakanuia e koe toku ngakau.
HE
33 E Ihowa, whakaakona ahau ki te ara o au tikanga: a ka mau i ahau taea noatia te mutunga.
34 Homai he matauranga ki ahau, a ka mau i ahau tau ture; ka whakapaua toku ngakau ki te pupuri.
35 Meinga ahau kia haere i te ara o au whakahau; ko taku hoki tena e whakaahuareka nei.
36 Whakaangahia toku ngakau ki au whakaaturanga; kaua hoki ki te apo.
37 Whakatahuritia ketia oku kanohi kei kite i te horihori: whakahauorangia ahau i tau ara.
38 Whakapumautia tau kupu ki tau pononga, e wehi nei ki a koe.
39 Parea atu toku tawainga, e wehi nei ahau: he pai hoki au whakaritenga.
40 Nana, kua matenui ahau ki au ako: whakahauorangia ahau i runga i tou tika.
WHAU
41 Kia puta ano au mahi tohu ki ahau, e Ihowa: ara tau whakaoranga, kia rite ki tau kupu.
42 Penei ka whai kupu maku ki toku kaitawai; noku ka whakawhirinaki ki tau kupu.
43 Kaua e tangohia rawatia i toku mangai te kupu o te pono: e tumanako nei hoki ahau ki au whakaritenga.
44 Penei ka puritia e ahau tau ture ake ake.
45 A ka haereere noa ahau; kua rapua hoki e ahau au akoranga.
46 Ka korerotia ano e ahau au whakaaturanga ki te aroaro o nga kingi, e kore ano e whakama.
47 A ka waiho e ahau hei oranga ngakau moku au whakahau e aroha nei ahau.
48 Ka toro atu hoki oku ringa ki au whakahau e aroha nei ahau, ka whakaaroaro ano ki au tikanga.
TAINE
49 Maharatia te kupu ki tau pononga, no te mea kua meinga ahau e koe kia tumanako atu.
50 Ko toku oranga ngakau tenei i ahau e tangi nei: na tau kupu nei hoki ahau i whakahauora.
51 Nui rawa te whakahi ki ahau o te hunga whakakake: heoi kihai ahau i peka ke i tau ture.
52 I mahara ahau ki au whakaritenga, e Ihowa, o tua iho; a marie ana toku ngakau.
53 Mau pu ahau i te pawera, mo te hunga kino kua whakarere nei i tau ture.
54 Ko au tikanga aku e himene ai i te whare i noho manene ai ahau.
55 I mahara ahau ki tou ingoa i te po, e Ihowa: a puritia ana e ahau tau ture.
56 I ahau tenei, he mau noku ki au ako.
KETE
57 Ko Ihowa toku wahi: kua mea nei ahau, ka pupuri ahau i au kupu.
58 I whakapaua toku ngakau ki te inoi ki a koe kia pai mai: kia rite ki tau kupu tau mahi tohu ki ahau.
59 I whakaaro ahau ki oku ara: a anga ana oku waewae ki au whakaaturanga.
60 I hohoro ahau, a kihai i whakaroa ki te pupuri i au whakahau.
61 Karapotia putia ana ahau e nga here a te hunga kino: kihai ia ahau i wareware ki tau ture.
62 I waenganui po ka ara ahau ki te whakawhetai ki a koe mo au whakaritenga tika.
63 He hoa ahau no te hunga katoa e wehi ana i a koe; no te hunga ano e pupuri ana i au ako.
64 Ki tonu, e Ihowa, te whenua i tau mahi tohu: whakaakona ahau ki au tikanga.
TETE
65 Pai rawa tau hanga ki tau pononga, e Ihowa; rite tonu ki tau kupu.
66 Whakaakona ahau ki te ngarahu pai, ki te matauranga: kua whakapono hoki ahau ki au whakahau.
67 I ahau kiano i whakawhiua, i he ahau: tena ko tenei ka puritia e ahau tau kupu.
68 He pai koe, he pai hoki au mahi: whakaakona ahau ki au tikanga.
69 Kua titoa e te hunga whakakake he teka moku: ka whakapaua toku ngakau ki te pupuri i au ako.
70 He ngako rawa to ratou ngakau, koia ano kei te taupa: ko ahau ia, he oranga ngakau ki ahau tau ture.
71 Marie ano ahau kia pehia e te pouri; i ako ai ahau i au tikanga.
72 Ko te ture a tou mangai pai ke atu ki ahau i nga mano o te koura, o te hiriwa.
IOTA
73 Na ou ringa ahau i hanga, i whakawhaiahua: homai he matauranga ki ahau, kia ako ai ahau ki au whakahau.
74 Ka hari te hunga e wehi ana i a koe ina kite i ahau: noku i tumanako ki tau kupu.
75 E matau ana ahau, e Ihowa, he tika au whakaritenga; a he pono nou i pehia ai toku ngakau e koe.
76 Tena ra, waiho tau mahi tohu hei whakamarie moku; kia rite ki tau kupu ki tau pononga.
77 Kia puta ki ahau au mahi aroha, kia ora ai ahau; ko tau ture hoki toku oranga ngakau.
78 Kia whakama te hunga whakakake; no te mea kahore he take i he ai ta ratou hanga ki ahau; ko ahau ia ka whakaaroaro ki au akoranga.
79 Ko te hunga e wehi ana ki a koe me anga ki ahau, a ka mohio ratou ki au whakaaturanga.
80 Kia tapatahi toku ngakau ki au tikanga; kei whakama ahau.
KAPA
81 E matenui ana toku wairua ki tau whakaoranga: otiia ka tumanako ahau ki tau kupu.
82 Matawaia ana oku kanohi, he meatanga ki tau kupu, i ahau e mea ana, Ahea koe whakamarie ai i ahau?
83 Kua rite nei hoki ahau ki te koki i roto i te paoa: he ahakoa e kore ahau e wareware ki au tikanga.
84 E hia nga ra o tau pononga? a hea koe whakarite whakawa ai mo te hunga e tukino nei i ahau?
85 Kua keri poka te hunga whakakake moku; he mea kahore e rite ki tau ture.
86 Pono tonu au whakahau katoa: e tukino takekore ana ratou i ahau; awhinatia mai ahau.
87 Wahi iti kua moti ahau i a ratou i runga i te whenua: otira kihai i mahue i ahau au akoranga.
88 Kia rite ki tou aroha tau whakahauora i ahau: a ka puritia e ahau nga whakaaturanga a tou mangai.
