Psalm 139
Maori Bible
139 Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He Himene na Rawiri. E Ihowa, kua tirotirohia ahau e koe, kua mohiotia ano e koe.
2 E matau ana koe ki toku nohoanga iho, ki toku whakatikanga ake; e mohio ana koe ki oku whakaaro i tawhiti.
3 E kitea putia ana e koe toku ara me toku takotoranga iho; e matatau ana hoki koe ki oku ara katoa.
4 Kahore rawa hoki he kupu i toku arero, i toe i a koe te mohio, e Ihowa.
5 Kua hanga a muri, a mua, oku e koe: kua pa ano tou ringa ki ahau.
6 He mea whakamiharo rawa, kei tawhiti atu hoki i ahau, tenei matauranga: kei runga noa atu, e kore e taea e ahau.
7 Me haere ahau ki hea i tou wairua? Me oma ranei ahau ki hea i tou aroaro?
8 Ki te kake ahau ki te rangi, kei reira koe: ki te wharikitia e ahau toku moenga i roto i te reinga, kei reira ano koe.
9 Ki te tango ahau ki nga pakau o te ata, a ka noho ki nga topito o te moana;
10 Kei reira ano tou ringa hei arahi i ahau, tou matau hei pupuru i ahau.
11 Ki te mea ahau, He pono, tera ahau e hipokina e te pouri, a ko te marama i tetahi taha oku, i tetahi taha, ka meinga he po;
12 Ahakoa te pouri kahore e huna mai i a koe, engari ka marama te po ano ko te ao: ki a koe rite tahi te pouri me te marama.
13 I a koe hoki oku whatumanawa: nau hoki ahau i hipoki i roto i te kopu o toku whaea.
14 Ka whakawhetai ahau ki a koe; he mea whakawehi, he mea whakamiharo toku hanganga; he mahi whakamiharo au mahi, mohio rawa ano toku wairua ki tena.
15 Kihai i huna oku wahi i a koe, i ahau e hanga ngarotia ana, e ata whakairohia ana i nga wahi hohonu rawa o te whenua.
16 I kite ou kanohi i ahau, kahore ano kia ahua noa: i tuhituhia katoatia ano hoki oku wahi ki tau pukapuka, i nga rangi i whakaahua ai, i te mea kahore ano tetahi i oti noa.
17 Kia pehea mai hoki te matenui o ou whakaaro ki ahau, e te Atua; koia ano te ranea, ina huihuia!
18 Ki te taua e ahau, maha atu i te onepu: ka oho ake ahau, kei a koe tonu ahau.
19 He pono ka patua e koe, e te Atua, te tangata kino: mawehe koia atu i ahau, e nga tangata toto.
20 He kino hoki a ratou kupu mou: e whakahua noa ana ou hoariri i tou ingoa.
21 Kahore ianei ahau, e Ihowa, e kino ki te hunga e kino ana ki a koe? e whakarihariha hoki ki te hunga e whakatika ana ki a koe?
22 He tino kino taku kino ki a ratou: waiho iho ratou e ahau hei hoariri moku.
23 Tirohia iho ahau, e te Atua, kia matau hoki koe ki toku ngakau: whakamatautauria ahau, kia matau hoki koe ki oku whakaaro:
24 Kia kite mehemea kei ahau tetahi ara o te kino, ka arahi ai i ahau i te ara pumau.
Psalm 139
New International Version
Psalm 139
New International Version
Psalm 139
For the director of music. Of David. A psalm.
1 You have searched me,(A) Lord,
and you know(B) me.
2 You know when I sit and when I rise;(C)
you perceive my thoughts(D) from afar.
3 You discern my going out(E) and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.(F)
4 Before a word is on my tongue
you, Lord, know it completely.(G)
5 You hem me in(H) behind and before,
and you lay your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,(I)
too lofty(J) for me to attain.
7 Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee(K) from your presence?
8 If I go up to the heavens,(L) you are there;
if I make my bed(M) in the depths, you are there.
9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
10 even there your hand will guide me,(N)
your right hand(O) will hold me fast.
11 If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,”
12 even the darkness will not be dark(P) to you;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.
13 For you created my inmost being;(Q)
you knit me together(R) in my mother’s womb.(S)
14 I praise you(T) because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,(U)
I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made(V) in the secret place,
when I was woven together(W) in the depths of the earth.(X)
16 Your eyes saw my unformed body;
all the days ordained(Y) for me were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
17 How precious to me are your thoughts,[a](Z) God!(AA)
How vast is the sum of them!
18 Were I to count them,(AB)
they would outnumber the grains of sand(AC)—
when I awake,(AD) I am still with you.
19 If only you, God, would slay the wicked!(AE)
Away from me,(AF) you who are bloodthirsty!(AG)
20 They speak of you with evil intent;
your adversaries(AH) misuse your name.(AI)
21 Do I not hate those(AJ) who hate you, Lord,
and abhor(AK) those who are in rebellion against you?
22 I have nothing but hatred for them;
I count them my enemies.(AL)
23 Search me,(AM) God, and know my heart;(AN)
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
24 See if there is any offensive way(AO) in me,
and lead me(AP) in the way everlasting.
