Psalm 46 ~ Psalm 46

picture

1 G od is our safe place and our strength. He is always our help when we are in trouble.

Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi, ma nga tama a Koraha. He waiata Aramoto. Ko te Atua to tatou piringa, to tatou kaha; he kaiawhina e tino tata ana i nga wa o te he.

2 S o we will not be afraid, even if the earth is shaken and the mountains fall into the center of the sea,

Na reira kore ake to tatou wehi, ahakoa nekehia te whenua, ahakoa kahakina nga maunga ki waenga moana;

3 a nd even if its waters go wild with storm and the mountains shake with its action.

Ahakoa rara, taupatupatu noa ona wai, ahakoa wiri nga maunga i tona huamo. (Hera.

4 T here is a river whose waters make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High lives.

He awa tena ko ona manga hei whakahari i te pa o te Atua, i te wahi tapu o nga tapenakara o te Runga Rawa.

5 G od is in the center of her. She will not be moved. God will help her when the morning comes.

Kei waenganui ona te Atua, e kore ia e whakakorikoria: ma te Atua ia e awhina i te putanga ano o te ata.

6 T he people made noise. The nations fell. He raised His voice and the earth melted.

I nana nga tauiwi, i whakakorikoria nga rangatiratanga; puaki ana tona reo, rewa ana te whenua.

7 T he Lord of All is with us. The God of Jacob is our strong place.

Kei a tatou a Ihowa o nga mano, ko te Atua o Hakopa to tatou piringa. (Hera.

8 C ome and see the works of the Lord. He has destroyed parts of the earth.

Haere mai, tirohia nga mahi a Ihowa, nga whakangaromanga i whakaputaina e ia ki te whenua.

9 H e stops wars to the ends of the earth. He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two. He burns the war-wagons with fire.

E whakamutua ana e ia nga whainga a te pito ra ano o te whenua: whati ana i a ia te kopere, poro pu te tao, tahuna ake e ia te hariata ki te kapura.

10 B e quiet and know that I am God. I will be honored among the nations. I will be honored in the earth.

Kia ata noho, a kia matau ko ahau te Atua; e whakanuia ahau i waenganui i nga tauiwi, e whakanuia ahau i te whenua.

11 T he Lord of All is with us. The God of Jacob is our strong place.

Kei a tatou a Ihowa o nga mano: ko te Atua o Hakopa to tatou piringa. (Hera.
