Hopa 19 - Maori Bible 2012(MRI2012)

E Mōhio ana au, e Ora ana Tōku Kaiwhakaora

1Nā, ka whakautua e Hopa, ka mea:

2“Kia pēhea ake te roa o tā koutou whakapōrearea i tōku wairua,

o tā koutou wāwāhi i ahau ki te kupu?

3Ka tekau ēnei tāwainga a koutou ki ahau,

kāhore ō koutou whakamā i a koutou ka āki tonu nei i ahau.

4Ki te mea anō hoki kua hē ahau,

kei ahau anō tōku hē e noho ana.

5Ki te mea ka whakanui mai koutou i a koutou ki ahau,

ā, ka kauwhau mai ki ahau i tōku tāwainga;

6kia mōhio koutou nā te Atua ahau i whakaparori i tāku take,

he mea hao mai ahau nāna ki tāna kupenga.

7“Nanā, e tangi ana ahau i te mahi nanakia,

heoi kāhore ahau e whakarangona;

e karanga āwhina ana ahau, otiia kāhore he whakawā.

8Kua tūtakina e ia tōku ara, tē puta ahau;

tukua iho ana e ia te pōuri ki ōku ara.

9Ko tōku korōria huia atu ana e ia;

tangohia ana e ia te karauna i tōku māhunga.

10Wāwāhia ana ahau e ia i ngā taha katoa, ā, riro ana ahau;

ko tāku i tūmanako atu ai huaranga atu ana e ia ānō he rākau.

11Kua mura mai hoki tōna riri ki ahau;

e kīia ana ahau e ia ko tētahi o ōna hoariri.

12E haere huihui mai ana āna taua,

e whakaneke ake ana i tō rātou ara ki ahau,

kei te whakapae i tōku tēneti i tētahi taha, i tētahi taha.

13“Kua meinga e ia ōku tēina kia matara atu i ahau;

ko āku i mōhio ai kua tāngata kē ki ahau.

14Ko ōku whanaunga, mutu pū tā rātou;

ko ōku hoa ake, kua wareware rātou ki ahau.

15Ko te hunga e noho ana i tōku whare, me āku pononga wāhine,

kīia iho ahau e rātou he tangata kē;

he tangata nō ngā whenua ahau ki tā rātou titiro mai.

16I karanga atu ahau ki tāku pononga, heoi kīhai ia i whakaō mai;

ahakoa e īnoi ana tōku māngai ki a ia.

17Ko tōku hā tauhou ana ki tāku wahine,

me tāku īnoi hoki ki ngā tamariki o te kōpū o tōku whaea.

18Ko ngā tamariki nonohi anō hoki, whakahāwea mai ana ki ahau;

ki te whakatika ahau, ka kōrero whakahē rātou mōku.

19E whakarihariha mai ana ki ahau ōku takahoa katoa,

ā, ko āku i aroha ai kua tahuri mai ki ahau.

20Piri tonu tōku iwi ki tōku kiri, ki ōku kikokiko,

ā, ora ake ōku, ko te kiri kau o ōku niho.

21“Tohungia mai ahau, tohungia mai ahau e koutou, e ōku hoa;

kua pā mai hoki te ringa o te Atua ki ahau.

22He aha koutou i tūkino ai i ahau, i pērā ai me te Atua,

tē mākona koutou i ōku kikokiko?

23“Auē, me i tuhituhia āku kupu!

Auē, me i tāia ki te pukapuka!

24Me i whaoa ki te kāmaka, ki te pene rino, ki te matā,

hei mea mō ā mua noa atu!

25Otiia, e mōhio ana ahau kei te ora tōku kaihoko,

ā, i ngā wā i muri nei ka tū ia ki runga ki te whenua.

26Ā, ahakoa i muri i te paunga o tōku kiri,

ka titiro tonu ahau i roto i tōku kikokiko ki te Atua;

27e titiro anō ahau ki a ia, ahau nei anō;

ā, mā ōku kanohi e mātakitaki, kāhore mā o tētahi atu.

Pau rawa ōku whatumanawa i roto i ahau!

28“Ki te kī koutou, ‘Nā, tā tātou hanga ki te tūkino i a ia!

Kua kitea hoki te take o te mea i roto i ahau’;

29kia wehi koutou kei mate i te hoari;

nō te mea ko te whiunga ki te hoari kei roto i te riri,

e mōhio ai koutou he whakawā anō tēnei.”
