| 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.
