30
1 “Ināianei ia e kataina mai ana ahau
e te hunga tamariki rawa i ahau,
e te hunga kīhai nei ahau i whakaae
kia uru ō rātou mātua ki roto ki ngā kurī o tāku kāhui.
2 Āe rā, hei aha māku te kaha o ō rātou ringa?
He hanga pirau nei hoki tō rātou koroheketanga.
3 Tūpuhi ana rātou i te rawakore, i te hemokai;
e ngau ana rātou i te oneone pakapaka,
i roto i te pōuritanga o te tūhea, o te ururua.
4 E whawhaki ana rātou i ngā marou i roto o ngā rākau ririki;
ā, ko ngā pakiaka hunipa hei kai mā rātou.
5 He mea pei atu rātou i roto i ngā tāngata;
e kārangarangatia ana rātou ānō he tāhae.
6 Me noho rawa atu rātou i ngā kapiti o ngā awaawa,
i ngā waro o te whenua, i ngā kāmaka.
7 Tangi ā-kāihe ana rātou i roto i ngā rākau ririki;
huihuia ana rātou ki raro i ngā ongaonga.
8 He tamariki rātou nā ngā kūware,
āe rā, he tamariki nā te hunga ingoakore;
he hunga i patua atu i runga i te whenua.
9 “Ināianei ia kua waiho ahau hei waiata mā rātou,
āe, hei whakatauki mā rātou.
10 E whakarihariha mai ana rātou ki ahau,
e neke rawa atu ana i ahau,
ā, kāhore e kaiponuhia e rātou te hūware ki tōku mata.
11 Kua oti hoki tāna aho te wewete e ia, ā e whakatupuria kinotia ana ahau e ia,
ā, kua tukua e rātou te paraire i tōku aroaro.
12 I te taha ki matau ka ara te marea;
tāia ana e rātou ōku waewae,
ā, ākina ana ngā ara o ā rātou whakangaromanga ki ahau.
13 E taka kino ana rātou i tōku ara,
e whakatupu ana i te hē mōku,
ā, kāhore he hoa mahi mō rātou.
14 Rite tonu ki te wai nui e pakaru mai ana tō rātou haerenga mai;
i taua whakangaromanga nei, huri mai ana rātou ki runga ki ahau.
15 Kua tahuri mai ngā whakawehi ki ahau,
e aru ana rātou i tōku whakaaro rangatira ānō he hau;
ko te whakahauora mōku, pahemo kē ana ānō he kapua.
16 “Nā, ināianei kua maringi tōku wairua i roto i ahau;
mau pū ahau i ngā rā o te tangi.
17 I te pō e werohia ana ōku wheua i roto i ahau;
kāhore hoki he okiokinga o ngā mamae e ngau nei i ahau.
18 He kaha nui nō tōku mate i āhua kē ai tōku kākahu;
e awhi nei i ahau, e pēnei ana me te whiri o tōku koti.
19 Kua makā ahau e ia ki te paru kua rite ahau ki te puehu, ki te pungarehu.
20 “E tangi ana ahau ki a koe, heoi kāhore koe e whakaō mai ki ahau;
e tū ana, heoi ka titiro kau mai koe ki ahau.
21 Kua huri kē, kua kino tāu mahi ki ahau;
ko te kaha o tōu ringa kei te tūkino i ahau.
22 Kua hāpainga ake ahau e koe ki te hau,
ā, meinga ana tērā e koe hei hōiho mōku;
ā, whakamōtītia iho ahau e koe i roto i te tūpuhi.
23 E mōhio ana hoki ahau tērā ahau e kawea e koe ki te mate,
ki te whare hoki i whakaritea mō te hunga ora katoa.
24 “E kore anō ia tōna ringa e totoro iho ki te urupā;
ahakoa hei mate mōna ka mea ia ki te karanga,
he whakaaro ki ēnei mea.
25 Kīhai ianei ahau i tangi ki te tangata he mate nei tōna?
Kīhai rānei tōku wairua i pōuri ki te rawakore?
26 I ahau i tatari ai ki te pai, heoi kua tae mai te kino;
tūmanako atu ana ahau ki te mārama,
heoi kua tae mai te pōuri.
27 Ko ōku whēkau, me te mea e koropupū ana, tē āta takoto;
haukotia mai ana ahau e ngā rā o te tangi.
28 E hāereere pōuri ana ahau, kāhore he rā;
ko tāku whakatikanga ake i roto i te whakaminenga,
ka karanga āwhina.
29 Hei teina ahau ki ngā tarakona,
hei hoa mō ngā ruru.
30 Ko tōku kiri mangu tonu, e ngahoro ana i ahau,
kāia ana ōku wheua i te wera.
31 Nō reira i tahuri kē ai tāku hāpa ki te tangi,
me tāku ōkana ki te reo o te hunga e uhunga ana.
