Te Waiata mō te Māra Wāina Huakore
1 Nā, me waiata e ahau he waiata
nā tāku i aroha nei mō tāku i kaingākau ai,
he mea mō tāna māra wāina:
He māra wāina tā tāku kaingākau
i tētahi pukepuke mōmona.
2 Nā, taiepatia ana e ia, kohikohia ana e ia ngā kōhatu o reira,
whakatōkia ana e ia ki te wāina pai rawa;
hangā ana e ia he pourewa ki waenganui,
keria ana anō e ia he poka wāina ki reira;
ā, ka tatari ia kia whai karepe,
nā, ka hua mai he karepe māori.
3 Nā, e te hunga e noho nei i Hiruhārama,
me ngā tāngata o Hūrā,
whakaritea tā māua whakawā
ko tāku māra wāina.
4 Ko te aha ake anō rā i āhei kia mahia ki tāku māra,
kīhai i mahia e ahau ki reira?
He aha rā, i ahau i tatari ai kia hua mai he karepe,
i puta kē mai ai he karepe māori?
5 Nā ināianei, māku e whakaatu ki a koutou
tāku e mea ai ki tāku māra wāina.
Ka tangohia atu e ahau tōna pā whakaruru hau,
ā, ka pau ia te kai;
ka tukitukia hoki e ahau tōna taiepa,
ā, ka takatakahia.
6 Ā, ka meinga e ahau kia ururua;
e kore e tapatapahia, e kore e ngakia,
engari, ka huaranga ake te tātarāmoa me te tūmatakuru;
ka ako atu hoki ahau ki ngā kapua
kia kaua te ua e uaina ki reira.
7 Ko te māra wāina hoki a Ihowā o ngā mano,
ko te whare o Īharaira,
ā, ko ngā tāngata o Hūrā
tāna mea āhuareka i whakatō ai;
ka tatari ia ki te whakawā, nā, ko te tūkino;
ki te tika, nā, he auē.
Ka Whakahorihoria te Tūkino Pāpori
8 Auē te mate mō te hunga e hono ana i te whare ki te whare,
e whakapiri nei i te māra ki te māra,
ā, kore noa iho he wāhi,
ā, ka meinga koutou kia noho, ko koutou anake,
i waenganui i te whenua!
9 Ko tā Ihowā o ngā mano tēnei i hamumu ai ki ōku taringa:
“He pono, he tini ngā whare ka mokemoke,
tōna nunui, tōna ātaahua, ka noho tahanga kau.
10 Nō te mea kotahi tekau ngā eka o te māra wāina,
ka maea ake kotahi tonu te pāti;
i kī te homa i te purapura, ka maea ake kotahi te epa.”
11 Auē te mate mō te hunga e maranga wawe ana i te ata
ki te whai i te wai kaha;
e kawe ana i te roa o te pō,
nāwai ā, ka tahuna e te wāina,
12 ko te hāpa me te hātere,
ko te timipera me te pūtōrino, ko te wāina,
kei ā rātou hākari ēnā, heoi, kāhore ā rātou mahara ki te mahi a Ihowā,
kāhore hoki he whakaaro ki te mahi a ōna ringa!
13 Koia i riro ai tōku iwi i te pārau, he kore mātauranga;
ko ō rātou tāngata ingoa nui hoki kua hemo i te kai,
ā, ko tō rātou mano tini kua pakapaka rawa i te matewai.
14 Nā reira te rēinga i whakanui ai i tōna hiahia,
i whewhera noa atu ai i tōna māngai;
ā, heke atu ana ki reira tō rātou korōria,
ō rātou mano tini, tō rātou whakahī,
me te tangata e whakamanamana ana i roto i a rātou.
15 Ka whakapikoa anō hoki te tangata ware,
ā, ka whakaititia te tangata nui,
ka whakahokia iho hoki ngā kanohi o te hunga whakakake.
16 Otiia ka whakanekehia ake a Ihowā o ngā mano i runga i te whakawā,
ka whakatapua anō te Atua, te Mea Tapu, i runga i te tika.
17 Ko reira ngā reme kai ai, ānō kei tō rātou wāhi,
ā, ka kainga e ngā mea haere noa ngā wāhi kua ururuatia o te hunga tetere.
18 Auē te mate mō te hunga e kūmea ana e rātou te hē ki ngā aho o te horihori,
te hara hoki me te mea ki te taura o te kāta;
19 e mea nei, “Kia hihiko ia,
kia hohoro tāna mahi,
kia kite ai mātou;
kia whakatata mai hoki,
kia tae mai te whakaaro o te Mea Tapu o Īharaira,
kia mōhio ai mātou!”
20 Auē te mate mō te hunga e mea nei ki te kino, he pai,
ki te pai hoki, he kino;
e mea nei i te pōuri hei mārama,
i te mārama hoki hei pōuri;
e mea nei i te kawa hei reka,
i te reka hei kawa!
21 Auē te mate mō te hunga he nui nei ō rātou whakaaro ki tā rātou titiro,
e mahara ana hoki he hunga mōhio rātou!
22 Auē te mate mō te hunga kaha ki te inu wāina,
he hunga uaua anō ki te whakaranu i te wai kaha;
23 e whakatika nei i tā te tangata hē, he whakaaro ki te utu;
e tango atu nei i te tika o te tangata tika.
Ka Poropititia te Whakaekenga a ngā Iwi Kē
24 Mō reira ka rite ki te kainga a te arero o te ahi i te kakau wīti,
ki te hinganga o te otaota maroke ki roto ki te mura;
ka pērā tō rātou pakiaka te pirau,
ka rere tō rātou puāwai ki runga, ānō he puehu;
mō rātou i whakakāhore ki te Ture a Ihowā o ngā mano,
i whakahāwea anō hoki ki te kupu a te Mea Tapu o Īharaira.
25 Nā reira te riri o Ihowā i mura ai ki tāna iwi,
ā, kua torona e ia tōna ringa ki te whawhai ki a rātou, ā, patua iho rātou e ia;
i ngāueue ngā maunga,
ā, ko ō rātou tinana mate me te mea he paru
i waenganui o ngā huarahi.
Nā, ahakoa tēnei katoa, kāhore tōna riri i te tahuri atu,
mārō tonu tōna ringa.
26 Ka whakaarahia anō hoki e ia he kara ki ngā iwi i tawhiti;
ka whiowhio anō ki a rātou ki te pito o te whenua.
Nanā, ka hohoro, ka tere tonu tā rātou haere mai!
27 E kore tētahi o rātou e ngenge, e kore e tapepa te waewae;
e kore tētahi e parangia, e kore e moe;
e kore te whītiki o ō rātou hope e mawheto,
e kore anō te here o ō rātou hū e motu;
28 ko ā rātou pere, koi tonu,
he piko katoa ā rātou kōpere;
ko ngā pāua o ō rātou hōiho ka kīia he matā,
ā, ko ō rātou wīra he āwhiowhio.
29 Ko tā rātou hāmama, koia anō kei tā te raiona,
ka hāmama rātou ānō he kūao raiona;
āe rā, ka ngengere rātou, ka hopukina tā rātou tūpāpaku,
kāwhakina tonutia atu, kāhore hoki he tangata hei whakaora.
30 Nā, ka hāmama rātou ki a rātou i taua rā,
me te mea ko te moana e haruru ana;
ā, ki te titiro tētahi ki te whenua –
nanā, he pōuri me te tuatea,
ā, kua pōuri te mārama i ōna kapua.
