He Tāne Whakapoururu
1 Ko ahau te tangata kua kite i te pōuri,
he mea nā te rākau o tōna riri.
2 I ārahina e ia, i meinga kia haere i te pōuri,
kāhore i te mārama.
3 He pono kua tahuri mai ia ki ahau,
kua anga mai tōna ringa ki ahau, ā pau noa te rā.
4 Kua meinga nei e ia ōku kikokiko me tōku kiri kia rite ki ō te koroheke,
mangungu kau i a ia ōku wheua.
5 Kua hangā e ia he patu mōku;
karapotia ana ahau ki te wai kawa, ki te raruraru.
6 Kua meinga ahau e ia kia noho ki ngā wāhi pōuri,
kia pērā me te hunga kua mate noa ake.
7 Kua oti ahau te taiepa mai e ia, tē puta atu ahau;
kua meinga e ia tōku mekameka kia taimaha.
8 Āe rā, i ahau e karanga ana, e hāmama ana kia āwhinatia,
ka āraia mai e ia tāku īnoi.
9 Kua oti anō ōku ara te taiepa mai e ia ki te kōhatu tārai,
whakakōpikopikoa ake e ia ōku ara.
10 Ko tōna rite ki ahau kei te pea e whanga ana,
kei te raiona i ngā wāhi ngaro.
11 Whakangaua kētia ana e ia ōku ara, haehaea pūtia iho ahau;
meinga ana ahau e ia kia noho kau noa iho.
12 Kua whakapikoa e ia tāna kōpere,
ā, whakatūria ake ahau e ia hei kōperenga pere.
13 Kua meinga e ia ngā pere o tāna papa pere
kia ngoto ki ōku whatumanawa.
14 Kua waiho ahau hei katanga mā tōku iwi katoa;
hei waiata mā rātou ā pau noa te rā.
15 Kua whakakīia ahau e ia ki ngā mea kawa,
whakainumia rawatia ana ahau e ia ki te taru kawa.
16 Kua whatiwhatiia anō hoki e ia ōku niho ki te kirikiri,
hīpokina ana ahau e ia ki te pungarehu.
17 Kua nekehia atu e koe tōku wairua kei tata ki te rangimārie;
i wareware ahau ki te pai.
18 Kī tonu ake ahau, “Kua pirau tōku kaha,
kāhore he tūmanakohanga māku ki a Ihowā.”
19 Mahara ki tōku ngākau mamae, ki tōku pōuri,
ki te taru kawa, ki te wai kawa!
20 Māharahara tonu tōku wairua ki a rātou,
piko tonu iho i roto i ahau.
21 E whakahokia ake ana tēnei e ahau ki tōku ngākau,
koia i tūmanako ai ahau.
22 He mahi tohu nā Ihowā tē poto ai tātou,
he kore nō āna mahi aroha e mutu.
23 E hou tonu ana rātou i tēnei ata, i tēnei ata;
he nui tōu pono.
24 “Ko Ihowā te wāhi mōku,” e ai tā tōku wairua;
“nō reira ka tūmanako ahau ki a ia.”
25 He pai a Ihowā ki te hunga e tūmanako ana ki a ia,
ki te wairua e rapu ana i a ia.
26 He pai anō kia tūmanako te tangata,
kia tatari mārie hoki ki tā Ihowā whakaora.
27 He pai anō mō te tangata kia amohia e ia
te ioka i tōna tamarikitanga.
28 Me noho ia, tōna kotahi, me whakarongo puku hoki,
nō te mea nāna i uta ki a ia.
29 Me tuku e ia tōna māngai ki te puehu;
mehemea pea tērā he tūmanakohanga.
30 Me hoatu e ia tōna pāpāringa ki te tangata e papaki ana i a ia;
kia kī tonu ia i te tāwai.
31 E kore hoki e mau tonu
tā Ihowā panga.
32 Ahakoa whakapōuri ia, ka aroha anō ia,
ka rite ki te nui o tāna mahi tohu.
33 Kāhore hoki ōna ngākau whiu,
whakapōuri rānei, i ngā tama a te tangata.
34 Ko te kuru i ngā herehere katoa o te whenua
ki raro i ōna waewae;
35 ko te whakapeau kē i te tika o te tangata ina whakawākia
i te aroaro o te Runga Rawa;
36 ko te whakariro kē i tā te tangata ina totohe,
e kore tēnā e whakapaingia e te Ariki.
37 Ko wai tēnei hei kī mai, ā, ka oti,
i te mea kīhai i whakahaua e te Ariki?
38 He teka ianei e puta mai ana te kino me te pai
i roto i te māngai o te Runga Rawa?
39 He aha te tangata ora i amuamu ai,
te tangata ina whiua mō ōna hara?
40 E rapu tātou, e kimi i ō tātou ara,
ā, ka tahuri anō ki a Ihowā.
41 Kia ara atu ō tātou ngākau me ō tātou ringa
ki te Atua i te rangi.
42 I hē mātou, i whakakeke;
kīhai anō koe i muru i tō mātou hē.
43 Kua hīpokina nei e koe ki te riri, tūkinotia ana mātou e koe;
tukitukia ana e koe, kīhai anō i tohungia e koe.
44 Hīpokina ana e koe he kapua ki a koe,
kei puta atu tā mātou īnoi.
45 Kua meinga mātou e koe hei paru tāhinga,
hei mea ākiri i waenga i ngā iwi.
46 Kua hāmama mai ngā māngai
o ō mātou hoariri katoa ki a mātou.
47 Ko te wehi, ko te rua, kua tae mai kei a mātou,
te whakamōtī me te wāwāhi.
48 Kei te tārere nei ngā awa wai i tōku kanohi,
mō te wawāhanga o te tamāhine a tōku iwi.
49 Māturuturu ana te wai i tōku kanohi,
kāhore hoki e mutu, tē ai he pārīrātanga,
50 kia titiro mai rā anō a Ihowā,
kia kite mai rā anō ia i runga i te rangi.
51 E meatia iho ana tōku ngākau e tōku kanohi,
mō ngā tamāhine katoa o tōku pā.
52 Kua whāia kinotia ahau ānō he manu e rātou,
e te hunga e hoariri ana ki ahau, kāhore he take.
53 Ngaro iho i a rātou tōku ara i roto i te poka,
kua makā e rātou he kōhatu ki runga ki ahau.
54 I rere ngā wai i runga i tōku māhunga;
i mea ahau, “Kua motuhia kētia ahau.”
55 I karanga ahau ki tōu ingoa, e Ihowā,
i roto i te poka i raro rawa.
56 I rongo koe ki tōku reo; “Kaua e hunā tōu taringa
ki te tānga o tōku manawa, ki tāku karanga.”
57 I whakatata mai koe i te rā i karanga ai ahau ki a koe;
i kī mai koe, “Kaua e wehi.”
58 Kua tohea e koe, e te Ariki, ngā tohe a tōku wairua;
kua hokona e koe tōku ora.
59 Kua kite koe, e Ihowā, i te hē i mahia ki ahau.
Māu e whakarite tāku whakawā.
60 Kua kite koe i tō rātou mauāhara katoa,
i ō rātou whakaaro katoa mōku.
61 Kua rongo koe ki tā rātou tāwai, e Ihowā,
ki ō rātou whakaaro katoa mōku;
62 ki ngā ngutu o te hunga i whakatika mai ki ahau,
ki tā rātou tikanga mōku, ā pau noa te rā.
63 Tirohia mai tō rātou nohoanga iho, tō rātou whakatikanga ake;
ko ahau te waiatatia nei e rātou.
64 Hoatu he utu ki a rātou, e Ihowā,
kia rite ki te mahi a ō rātou ringa.
65 Hoatu ki a rātou he ngākau pakeke,
tāu kanga ki a rātou.
66 Whāia rātou i runga i te riri, whakangaromia atu rātou
i raro i ngā rangi o Ihowā.
