1 Praise ye Jehovah.

Praise, O ye servants of Jehovah,

Praise the name of Jehovah.

2 Blessed be the name of Jehovah

From this time forth and for evermore.

3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same

Jehovah’s name is to be praised.

4 Jehovah is high above all nations,

And his glory above the heavens.

5 Who is like unto Jehovah our God,

That hath his seat on high,

6 That humbleth himself to behold

The things that are in heaven and in the earth?

7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust,

And lifteth up the needy from the dunghill;

8 That he may set him with princes,

Even with the princes of his people.

9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house,

And to be a joyful mother of children.

Praise ye Jehovah.

1 Whakamoemititia a Ihowa. Whakamoemititia, e nga pononga a Ihowa, whakamoemititia te ingoa o Ihowa.

2 Kia whakapaingia te ingo o Ihowa aianei a ake ake.

3 Kia whakamoemititia te ingoa o Ihowa i te putanga mai o te ra, a tae noa ki tona torengitanga.

4 Kei runga rawa a Ihowa i nga iwi katoa: kei runga ake i nga rangi tona kororia.

5 Ko wai te rite ana ki a Ihowa, ki to tatou Atua, kei runga nei tona nohoanga,

6 E whakaiti nei i a ia ki te titiro iho ki nga mea kei te rangi, kei te whenua?

7 E whakaara ake ana ia i te iti i roto i te puehu, e whakateitei ake ana i te rawakore i roto i te puranga paru;

8 Kia whakanohoia ai e ia ki roto ki nga rangatira, ki nga rangatira o tana iwi.

9 Nana hoki te pakoko i whai whare ai, hei whaereere e koa ana ki ana tamariki. Whakamoemititia a Ihowa.
