God be merciful and gracious to us and bless us and cause His face to shine upon us and among us— Selah!—

2 K ia matauria ai tau ara ki runga ki te whenua, tau whakaoranga i roto i nga tauiwi katoa.

That Your way may be known upon earth, Your saving power (Your deliverances and Your salvation) among all nations.

3 K ia whakamoemiti nga iwi ki a koe, e te Atua, kia whakamoemiti nga iwi katoa ki a koe.

Let the peoples praise You and give thanks to You, O God; let all the peoples praise and give thanks to You.

4 K ia koa nga tauiwi, kia waiata i te hari: no te mea ka tika tau whakawa mo nga iwi, a ka kawana koe i nga tauiwi o te whenua. (Hera.

O let the nations be glad and sing for joy, for You will judge the peoples fairly and guide, lead, or drive the nations upon earth. Selah!

5 K ia whakamoemiti nga iwi ki a koe, e te Atua, kia whakamoemiti nga iwi katoa ki a koe.

Let the peoples praise You and give thanks to You, O God; let all the peoples praise and give thanks to You!

6 K ua tuku mai nei te whenua i ona hua; a ka manaaki te Atua, to tatou Atua, i a tatou.

The earth has yielded its harvest; God, even our own God, will bless us.

7 K a manaaki te Atua i a tatou; a ka wehi nga pito katoa o te whenua i a ia.

God will bless us, and all the ends of the earth shall reverently fear Him.
