| Chapter 116 |
1 |
¶ E aroha ana ahau ki a Ihowa: mona i whakarongo ki toku reo, ki aku inoi.
|
2 |
I tahuri mai tona taringa ki ahau: mo reira ka karanga ahau ki a ia i ahau e ora ana.
|
3 |
I karapotia ahau e nga whakawiringa a te mate: mau pu ahau i nga mamae o te reinga, i kite ahau i te pawera, i te pouri.
|
4 |
Na ko taku karangatanga ki te ingoa o Ihowa; Tena ra, e Ihowa, whakaorangia toku wairua.
|
5 |
He atawhai a Ihowa, he tika: ae, he aroha to tatou Atua.
|
6 |
E tiakina ana e Ihowa te hunga kuware: i whakaititia ahau, a nana ahau i whakaora.
|
7 |
E hoki, e toku wairua, ki tou okiokinga; kua atawhaitia hoki koe e Ihowa.
|
8 |
Nau hoki toku wairua i whakaora kei mate, oku kanohi kei whai roimata, oku waewae kei paheke.
|
9 |
Tera ahau e haereere i te aroaro o Ihowa i te whenua o te ora.
|
10 |
¶ I whakapono ahau, koia ahau i korero ai: he nui toku whakawhiunga.
|
11 |
I mea ahau i toku ohoreretanga, He teka kau nga tangata katoa.
|
12 |
He aha taku e whakahoki ai ki a Ihowa mo ana atawhainga katoa i ahau?
|
13 |
Ka mau ahau ki te kapu o te whakaoranga, ka karanga ki te ingoa o Ihowa.
|
14 |
Ka whakamana e ahau aku kupu taurangi ki a Ihowa i te aroaro o tana iwi katoa.
|
15 |
He mea utu nui ki ta Ihowa titiro te matenga o tana hunga tapu.
|
16 |
E Ihowa, he pono ko ahau tau pononga; ko ahau tau pononga, ko te tama a tau pononga wahine; nau i wewete oku here.
|
17 |
Ka tukua e ahau te patunga tapu, ara te whakawhetai: ka karanga ki te ingoa o Ihowa.
|
18 |
Ka whakamana e ahau aku kupu taurangi ki a Ihowa, ae, ki te aroaro o tana iwi katoa.
|
19 |
Ki nga marae o te whare o Ihowa, ki waenganui ou, e Hiruharama. Whakamoemititia a Ihowa.
