Te Whakaoranga o Hūrā me Īharaira
1 Īnoia he ua i a Ihowā i te wā o tō muri ua;
arā i a Ihowā e hanga nei i ngā uira.
He nui anō te ua e hōmai e ia ki a rātou,
he tarutaru i te māra mā tēnei mā tēnei.
2 He tekateka noa hoki te kōrero a ngā terapimi,
he teka te kite a ngā tohunga,
he horihori ngā moe i kōrerotia e rātou;
he hanga noa iho tā rātou whakamārie.
Nā reira, haere ana rātou ānō he kāhui hipi;
kārangirangi kau ana i te kore hēpara.
3 “I mura tōku riri ki ngā hēpara,
i whiua anō e ahau ngā koati toa;
kua tae mai hoki a Ihowā o ngā mano ki tāna kāhui, ki te whare o Hūrā,
kua mea i a rātou hei hōiho ātanga mōna i te tatauranga.
4 “Nō roto i a ia te putanga ake o te kōhatu o te kokonga,
nō roto i a ia te whao,
nō roto i a ia te kōpere mō te tatauranga,
nō roto i a ia ngā kaiakiaki katoa, rūpeke, rūpeke.
5 Ā, ka rite rātou ki ngā mārohirohi
e takatakahi ana i ō rātou hoariri ki te paru o ngā waharoa
i te mea e whawhai ana;
ka whawhai anō rātou, nō te mea kei a rātou a Ihowā,
ā, ka whakamā ngā kaieke hōiho.
6 “Nā, ka kaha i ahau te whare o Hūrā,
ka ora anō i ahau te whare o Hōhepa.
Ka whakahokia ki te nohoanga;
nō te mea ka tohungia rātou e ahau,
ā, me te mea kīhai rātou i peia e ahau;
ko ahau hoki, ko Ihowā, tō rātou Atua,
ka whakarongo anō ahau ki a rātou.
7 Nā, ka rite ngā Ēparaimi ki te mārohirohi,
ka koa anō tō rātou ngākau me te mea nā te wāina.
Ka kite anō ā rātou tamariki, ā, ka koa;
ka whakamanamana tō rātou ngākau ki a Ihowā.
8 “Ka hī ahau ki a rātou, ka huihui i a rātou;
kua hokona hoki rātou e ahau;
ā, ka tini rātou, ka pērā me rātou i tini rā.
9 Ā, ka whakatōkia rātou e ahau ki roto ki ngā iwi,
ka mahara anō rātou ki ahau i ngā whenua tawhiti,
ka ora hoki rātou me ā rātou tamariki, ā, ka hoki.
10 Ka whakahokia mai anō rātou e ahau i te whenua o Īhipa,
ka huihuia mai i Ahiria.
Ka kawea anō ki te whenua o Kireara, ki Repanōna,
tē kitea he wāhi mō rātou.
11 Nā, ka tika atu ia i waenga moana,
arā i te raruraru, ā, ka patu i ngā ngaru i te moana,
ka maroke hoki ngā wāhi hōhonu o te awa.
Ā, ka riro iho te whakapehapeha o Ahiria,
ka riro kē anō te hēpeta a Īhipa.
12 Ka whakakahangia anō rātou e ahau i runga i a Ihowā;
ka hāereere hoki rātou i runga i tōna ingoa,”
e ai tā Ihowā.
