I needed to flush my brain out, after that last post. Erlene recommended Psalm 134, set to music: and I was captivated by this rendition of it, sung–in the Maori language–by the Aotearoa Tokaikolo Youth in Auckland, New Zealand. There’s something wonderful about God’s word coming to us in every language known to humankind.
And for those of us who don’t speak Maori:
Behold, bless ye the Lord, all ye servants of the Lord, which by night stand in the house of the Lord. Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the Lord. The Lord that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion. (King James Version)
Reblogged this on necltr and commented:
Enjoy!
A good reminder that people of all sorts of backgrounds have come to appreciate and love the One True God.
Thank you. I had never heard this rendition. Very interesting.
Wonderful! Makes me want to learn Maori. 🙂 A beautifully joyous sound. Thank you.
