1 Auē te mate mō te hunga e whakatakoto ana i ngā tikanga hē,
mō ngā kaituhituhi anō hoki e tuhituhi nei i te mea nanakia;
2 hei whakakotiti kē i te whakawā mō ngā rawakore,
hei tango noa iho i te mea e tika ana mā ngā ware o tōku iwi,
kia waiho ai ngā mea a te pouaru hei taonga mā rātou,
kia pāhuatia ai e rātou ngā pani!
3 Ka pēhea rā koutou i te rā o te tirohanga mai,
o te whakangaromanga ka pā mai i tawhiti?
Ka rere koutou ki a wai hei āwhina,
ā, ka waiho tō koutou korōria ki hea?
4 Ka piko noa iho rātou ki raro i ngā herehere,
ka hinga ki raro i te iwi i patua.
Ahakoa ko tēnei katoa, e kore tōna riri e tahuri kē,
engari mārō tonu tōna ringa.
Ko Ahiria Whakahīhī ka Whakawātia hoki
5 “Auē, e te Ahiriana, te rākau o tōku riri,
te whiu kei tōna ringa ko tōku āritarita!
6 Ka ungā ia e ahau ki te iwi ngutukau;
he hē mō te iwi o tōku riri tāku e whakahau ai ki a ia,
ki te taonga parakete māna, ki te pāhua,
ki te mea i a rātou hei takahanga,
hei pērā me te paru o ngā ara.
7 Kāhore ia ōna whakaaro pēnei,
kīhai hoki tōna ngākau i mea ki te pēnei;
engari he whakangaro tā tōna ngākau,
kia kaua anō hoki e torutoru ngā iwi e hātepea e ia.
8 E kī ana hoki ia:
‘He teka ianei he kīngi katoa āku rangatira?
9 He teka ianei he rite a Karano ki Karakemihi,
he rite a Hāmata ki Ārapara,
he rite a Hamaria ki Ramahiku?
10 Ka rite ki ngā kīngitanga o ngā whakapakoko i tūpono mai ki tōku ringa;
nui atu nei hoki ō rātou whakapakoko i o Hiruhārama, i o Hamaria;
11 e kore ianei tāku e mea ai ki Hiruhārama, ki ōna whakapakoko,
e rite ki tāku i mea ai ki Hamaria, ki ōna whakapakoko?’ ”
12 Nā, tēnei ake, kia oti i te Ariki tāna mahi katoa ki Maunga Hiona, ki Hiruhārama, “Ka whiua e ahau ngā hua o te ngākau nui o te kīngi o Ahiria, me te korōria anō o ōna kanohi whakakake. 13 Kua kī nā hoki ia:
‘Nā te kaha o tōku ringa i oti ai tēnei i ahau,
nā tōku whakaaro nui, he tangata whai mahara hoki ahau.
Kua whakanekehia hoki e ahau ngā rohe o ngā iwi,
kua pāhuatia anō e ahau ō rātou taonga,
ā, kua riro i ahau, i te mārohirohi,
ki raro te hunga noho o ngā torōna.
14 Nā, kua kitea e tōku ringa
ngā taonga o ngā iwi, ānō he kōhanga;
i rite hoki ki te kohikohinga a tētahi i ngā hua manu i mahue,
tāku kohikohinga i te whenua katoa;
ā, kīhai i oraora te parirau o tētahi,
kīhai i hāmama te māngai, kīhai hoki i pīpī.’ ”
15 E whakahīhī rānei te tītaha ki te tangata nāna nei ia i whakamahi ki te hahau?
E whakakake rānei te kani ki te tangata nāna nei ia i kani ai?
Me te mea nei ko te patupatu hei whakakorikori i tōna kaihāpai,
ko te tokotoko rānei hei hāpai i te tangata ehara nei i te rākau.
16 Mō reira ka ungā mai e te Ariki, e te Ariki o ngā mano,
te hīroki ki ōna mea mōmona;
ā, ka kā ake a raro o tōna korōria,
he mea whakaū, koia anō kei te kā o te ahi.
17 Ā hei ahi te mārama o Īharaira,
ā, ko tana Mea Tapu anō hoki hei mura;
ā, ka wera ōna tūmatakuru, ōna tātarāmoa,
pau ake i te rā kotahi.
18 Ka pau anō hoki i a ia te korōria o tōna ngahere,
o tāna māra mōmona, te wairua rāua ko te tinana;
ā, hei te otinga, me te mea kua ngohe te ngākau o te kaihāpai kara.
19 Nā, ko te toenga o ngā rākau o tōna ngahere,
he torutoru, mā te tamaiti noa e tuhituhi.
Te Toenga Rīpenetā o Īharaira
20 I taua rā ka whakamutua e ngā toenga o Īharaira
rātou ko ngā mōrehu o te whare o Hākopa,
tā rātou okioki ki tō rātou kaiwhiu;
engari ka okioki pono rātou ki a Ihowā,
ki te Mea Tapu o Īharaira.
21 He toenga anō e hoki mai,
ko te toenga o Hākopa, ki te Atua kaha rawa.
22 Nō te mea ahakoa i rite tōu iwi, a Īharaira ki te onepū o te moana,
he toenga kau o rātou e hoki mai;
ko te whakaotinga i whakaritea,
me te mea e puhake ana i te tika.
23 Ka oti rā hoki, ka mahia anō hoki e te Ariki, e Ihowā o ngā mano,
te mea i whakaritea ki waenganui i te whenua katoa.
24 Nā reira tēnei kupu a te Ariki, a Ihowā o ngā mano:
“E tāku iwi e noho nei i Hiona kaua e wehi i te Ahiriana;
ahakoa patu ia i a koe ki te rākau,
hāpainga mai rānei e ia tōna tokotoko ki a koe,
pērā me tā Īhipa.
25 He wāhi iti rawa nei, ā, ka whakatutukitia te weriweri,
tōku riri hoki, i a rātou ka hunā.”
26 Ka oho anō i a Ihowā o ngā mano he whiu mōna,
he pērā me te patunga o Miriana ki te kāmaka ki Orepe;
ā, ka iri tōna tokotoko i runga i te moana,
ā, ka hāpainga e ia, pērā i tāna i Īhipa.
27 Nā, i taua rā ka makere atu tāna pīkaunga i tōu pokohiwi,
me tāna ioka i tōu kakī,
ā, ka kore noa iho anō hoki te ioka
i te whakawahinga.
28 Kua tae ki Aiata;
kua pahemo ki Mikirono;
ko āna mea rongoātia ake e ia ki Mikimaha.
29 Kei tēnei taha rātou o te whakawhitinga,
“Kua noho ā-puni rātou ki Kepa.”
Pāwera noa iho a Rama:
kua rere a Kipea o Haora.
30 Kia nui tōu reo, e te tamāhine a Karimi!
Whakarongo e Raihi!
He mate tōu, e Anatoto!
31 He whati a Maramena;
kei te huihui ngā tāngata o Kepimi, he tahuti.
32 Hei tēnei rā anō ka tū ia ki Nopo;
kei te rūrū tōna ringa
ki te maunga o te tamāhine a Hiona,
ki te pukepuke i Hiruhārama.
33 Nanā, ka tapahia e te Ariki, e Ihowā o ngā mano,
ngā peka, nui atu hoki te wehi;
ā, ka tuaina ki raro ngā mea he tiketike nei te āhua,
ka whakaititia anō hoki ngā mea whakakake.
34 Ka tuaina anō e ia ngā rākau pūruru o te ngahere ki te rino,
ka hinga anō hoki a Repanōna i te mea nui.
