1 O God, hasten to deliver me; O Lord, hasten to my help!

Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Na Rawiri, hei whakamahara. Kia hohoro, e te Atua, ki te whakaora i ahau: e Ihowa, hohoro ki te awhina i ahau.

2 L et those be ashamed and humiliated Who seek my life; Let those be turned back and dishonored Who delight in my hurt.

Kia whakama, kia pororaru ngatahi te hunga e rapu ana i toku wairua: kia whakahokia ki muri, kia whakama te hunga e hiahia ana kia he ahau.

3 L et those be turned back because of their shame Who say, “Aha, aha!”

Kia whakahokia ki muri mo to ratou whakama, te hunga e mea ana ki ahau, Ha, ha.

4 L et all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; And let those who love Your salvation say continually, “Let God be magnified.”

Kia hari, kia koa, ki a koe te hunga katoa e rapu ana i a koe; kia mea tonu te hunga e pai ana ki tau whakaoranga, Kia whakanuia te Atua.

5 B ut I am afflicted and needy; Hasten to me, O God! You are my help and my deliverer; O Lord, do not delay.

Ko ahau ia, he iti, he rawakore; hohoro mai, e te Atua, ki ahau: ko koe toku awhina, toku kaiwhakaora; kaua ra e whakaroa, e Ihowa.
