1 K o Ihowa te Kingi; kia wiri nga iwi: e noho ana ia i waenganui i nga kerupima; kia ngaueue te whenua.

The Lord reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the cherubims; let the earth be moved.

2 H e nui a Ihowa i Hiona: kei runga ake ia i nga iwi katoa.

The Lord is great in Zion; and he is high above all the people.

3 K ia whakamoemiti ratou ki tou ingoa nui, whakamataku; he tapu ia.

Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.

4 E matenui ana hoki te kaha o te kingi ki te whakawa tika; ko koe hei whakapumau i te pono: he whakawa tika, he hekore tau mahi i roto i a Hakopa.

The king’s strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

5 W hakanuia a Ihowa, to tatou Atua: koropiko ki tona turanga waewae; he tapu ia.

Exalt ye the Lord our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy.

6 K o Mohi raua ko Arona i roto i ana tohunga, me Hamuera i roto i te hunga e karanga ana ki tona ingoa: i karanga ratou ki a Ihowa, a whakahoki kupu ana mai ia ki a ratou.

Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon the Lord, and he answered them.

7 I korero ia ki a ratou i roto i te pou kapua: i pupuri ratou i ana whakaaturanga, i te tikanga i whakatakotoria e ia ki a ratou.

He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the ordinance that he gave them.

8 E Ihowa, e to matou Atua, i whakahoki kupu koe ki a ratou: he Atua tohu koe i a ratou, otiia i rapu utu ano koe mo a ratou mahi.

Thou answeredst them, O Lord our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.

9 W hakanuia a Ihowa, to tatou Atua, koropiko atu i tona maunga tapu: he tapu hoki a Ihowa, to tatou Atua.

Exalt the Lord our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the Lord our God is holy.
