Psalm 44
Maori Bible
44 Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi, ma nga tama a Koraha. He Makiri. E te Atua, kua rongo o matou taringa, kua korerotia ki a matou e o matou matua, nga mahi i mahia e koe i o ratou ra, i nga ra o mua.
2 Nau nga tauiwi i pana ki tou ringa, nau ratou i whakato: nau nga iwi i whiu, a whakamararatia ana ratou.
3 Ehara hoki i te mea, na ta ratou hoari i whiwhi ai ratou ki te whenua, ehara to ratou takakau i te mea i ora ai ratou: engari na tou matau, na tou takakau hoki, na te marama ano o tou mata, he pai hoki nou ki a ratou.
4 E te Atua, ko koe toku Kingi: whakahaua he whakaora mo Hakapa.
5 Mau ka turaki ai matou i o matou hoariri; ma tou ingoa ka takahia ai e matou te hunga e whakatika ana ki a matou.
6 E kore hoki ahau e whakawhirinaki ki taku kopere: e kore ano taku hoari e whakaora i ahau.
7 Nau hoki matou i ora ai i o matou hoariri: nau ano i whakama ai te hunga i kino ki a matou.
8 Ko te Atua ta matou e whakamanamana ai i te roa o te ra: ka whakamoemiti ano matou ki tou ingoa ake ake. (Hera.
9 Otira kua panga nei matou e koe, kua meinga kia whakama: kahore hoki koe kia haere tahi me a matou taua.
10 Kua meinga matou kia hoki whakamuri mai i te hoariri; kei te pahua ano i etahi ma ratou te hunga e kino ana ki a matou.
11 Kua hoatu matou e koe, ano he hipi e kainga ana: kua marara ki roto ki nga tauiwi.
12 E hokona ana e koe tau iwi, a hore he utu: kahore hoki koe e whiwhi rawa i te utu mo ratou.
13 E meinga ana matou e koe hei tawainga ma o matou hoa kainga; hei whakahaweatanga, hei whakakatanga mai ma te hunga i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha o matou.
14 E meinga ana matou e koe hei whakatauki ma nga tauiwi; hei rurutanga matenga ma nga iwi.
15 Kei mua tonu i ahau toku whakama; kua taupokina ahau e te pawera o toku mata;
16 I te reo o te kaitawai, o te kaikohukohu; i te hoariri, i te kairapu utu.
17 Kua pa katoa tenei ki a matou; heoi kahore matou i wareware ki a koe, kihai ano i teka ki tau kawenata.
18 Kahore to matou ngakau i tahuri whakamuri; kihai ano o matou hikoinga i peka ke i tau ara;
19 I maru ai matou i a koe i te wahi o nga tarakona; a taupoki rawa ki te atarangi o te mate.
20 Mehemea kua wareware matou ki te ingoa o to matou Atua, kua totoro ranei o matou ringa ki te atua ke;
21 E kore ranei tenei e ata tirohia e te Atua? E matau ana hoki ia ki nga mea ngaro o te ngakau.
22 Mou nei hoki matou i patua ai i te ra roa nei: kiia iho matou he hipi e patua ana.
23 E ara, he aha koe ka moe ai, e te Ariki? Whakatika, kaua matou e panga tonutia.
24 He aha koe ka huna ai i tou mata? ka wareware ai ki to matou mamae, ki to matou tukinotanga?
25 Kua piko nei hoki to matou wairua ki raro ki te puehu; piri rawa to matou kopu ki te whenua.
26 E ara, hei awhina i a matou; kia mahara ki tou aroha, a hokona matou.

Psalm 44[a]
For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A maskil.[b]
1 We have heard it with our ears,(A) O God;
our ancestors have told us(B)
what you did in their days,
in days long ago.(C)
2 With your hand you drove out(D) the nations
and planted(E) our ancestors;
you crushed(F) the peoples
and made our ancestors flourish.(G)
3 It was not by their sword(H) that they won the land,
nor did their arm bring them victory;
it was your right hand,(I) your arm,(J)
and the light(K) of your face, for you loved(L) them.
4 You are my King(M) and my God,(N)
who decrees[c] victories(O) for Jacob.
5 Through you we push back(P) our enemies;
through your name we trample(Q) our foes.
6 I put no trust in my bow,(R)
my sword does not bring me victory;
7 but you give us victory(S) over our enemies,
you put our adversaries to shame.(T)
8 In God we make our boast(U) all day long,(V)
and we will praise your name forever.[d](W)
9 But now you have rejected(X) and humbled us;(Y)
you no longer go out with our armies.(Z)
10 You made us retreat(AA) before the enemy,
and our adversaries have plundered(AB) us.
11 You gave us up to be devoured like sheep(AC)
and have scattered us among the nations.(AD)
12 You sold your people for a pittance,(AE)
gaining nothing from their sale.
13 You have made us a reproach(AF) to our neighbors,(AG)
the scorn(AH) and derision(AI) of those around us.
14 You have made us a byword(AJ) among the nations;
the peoples shake their heads(AK) at us.
15 I live in disgrace(AL) all day long,
and my face is covered with shame(AM)
16 at the taunts(AN) of those who reproach and revile(AO) me,
because of the enemy, who is bent on revenge.(AP)
17 All this came upon us,
though we had not forgotten(AQ) you;
we had not been false to your covenant.
18 Our hearts had not turned(AR) back;
our feet had not strayed from your path.
19 But you crushed(AS) us and made us a haunt for jackals;(AT)
you covered us over with deep darkness.(AU)
20 If we had forgotten(AV) the name of our God
or spread out our hands to a foreign god,(AW)
21 would not God have discovered it,
since he knows the secrets of the heart?(AX)
22 Yet for your sake we face death all day long;
we are considered as sheep(AY) to be slaughtered.(AZ)
