Waiata 77 - Maori Bible 2012(MRI2012)

Ka Whakamaumaharatia ngā Mahi Whakahira a te AtuaKi te tino kaiwhakatangi, ki a Ierutunu. He hīmene nā Āhapa.

1Ki te Atua tōku reo,

e karanga nei ahau, ki te Atua tōku reo,

ā, tērā e tahuri mai tōna taringa ki ahau.

2I rapu ahau ki te Ariki i te rā o tōku pōuri;

mārō tonu tōku ringa i te pō, kīhai anō i pēpeke;

kīhai tōku wairua i pai kia whakamārietia.

3E mahara ana ahau ki te Atua, ā, e pōuri ana;

kei te whakaaroaro, ā, ngaro iho tōku wairua. Hera

4E puritia ana e koe ōku kanohi kia mataara tonu;

he pōuri ahau, tē āhei te kōrero.

5Ka hoki ōku whakaaro ki ngā rā onamata,

ki ngā tau o tua iho.

6E whakamahara ana ahau ki tāku waiata i te pō,

e kōrerorero ana ki tōku ngākau,

e rapurapu ana tōku wairua.

7“Tērā rānei te Ariki e panga tonu ake ake,

ā, heoi anō rānei āna manakohanga mai?

8Kua kāhore rānei tāna mahi tohu mō ake tonu atu?

Kua whati rānei tāna kupu ā ake ake?

9Kua wareware rānei te Atua ki te atawhai?

Kua riri rānei ia, ā, tūtakina atu ana e ia tōna aroha?” Hera

10Nā, ka mea ahau, “Ko tōku ngoikore tēnei:

otirā ka mahara ahau ki ngā tau o te ringa matau o te Runga Rawa.”

11Ka mahara ahau ki ngā mahi a Ihowā;

āe rā, ka mahara ahau ki āu mea whakamīharo o tua iho.

12Ka whakaaro hoki ahau ki āu meatanga katoa,

ka pūrākau ki āu mahi.

13E te Atua, kei te wāhi tapu tōu ara.

Ko wai te atua nui hei rite ki te Atua?

14Ko koe te Atua e mahi nei i ngā mea whakamīharo;

kua whakapuakina e koe tōu kaha i waenganui o ngā iwi.

15Hokona ana e tōu ringa tāu iwi,

ngā tama a Hākopa rāua ko Hōhepa. Hera

16I kite ngā wai i a koe, e te Atua,

i kite ngā wai i a koe, mataku ana;

i oho anō ngā rire.

17Ringihia ana he wai e ngā kapua,

puaki ana te haruru o ngā rangi;

rererere ana āu pere.

18I roto i te āwhiowhio te haruru o tāu whatitiri;

mārama noa te ao i ngā uira;

wiri ana te whenua, oioi ana.

19I te moana tōu ara,

i ngā wai nui tōu huarahi,

e kore anō e kitea ōu takahanga.

20He mea ārahi e koe tāu iwi ānō he kāhui,

arā e te ringa o Mohi rāua ko Ārona.
