Waiata 91 - Maori Bible 2012(MRI2012)

Ko te Atua tō tātou Piringa

1Ko te tangata kei te wāhi ngaro o te Runga Rawa tōna kāinga,

ka noho ia i raro i te taumarumarutanga o te Kaha Rawa.

2Ka kīia e ahau a Ihowā, “Ko ia tōku piringa, tōku pā, tōku Atua,

ka whakawhirinaki ahau ki a ia.”

3Māna hoki koe e whakaora i te māhanga a te kaihopu manu,

i te mate nanakia.

4Ka hīpokina koe e ia ki ōna hou,

ā, ka piri koe ki raro i ōna pākau;

ko tōna pono hei whakangungu rākau, hei puapua mōu.

5E kore koe e wehi i te mea whakamataku i te pō;

i te pere e rere ana i te awatea.

6I te mate urutā e rere ana i te pōuri;

i te whakangaromanga e whakangaro ana i te poutūmārōtanga.

7He mano te hinga ki tōu taha,

tekau hoki ngā mano ki tōu matau;

otiia e kore e tata ki a koe.

8Ka titiro kau ōu kanohi,

ka mātakitaki ki te utu mō te hunga kino.

9Ko koe hoki, e Ihowā, tōku piringa!

Kua waiho e koe te Runga Rawa hei nohoanga mōu;

10kāhore he kino e pā ki a koe,

kāhore anō he whiu e tata ki tōu tēneti.

11Ka kōrerotia iho hoki koe e ia

ki āna anahera kia tiakina koe i ōu ara katoa.

12Mā rātou koe e hiki ake ki ō rātou ringa,

kei tūtuki tōu waewae ki te kōhatu.

13Ka haere koe i runga i te raiona, i te neke;

ka takahia e koe ki raro te kūao raiona me te nākahi.

14“Ka whakaora ahau i a ia, mōna i aroha ki ahau;

māku ia e whakateitei ake, mōna i mātau ki tōku ingoa.

15Ka karanga ia ki ahau, ā, ka whakahoki kupu ahau ki a ia;

ka tata ahau ki a ia i te wā o te hē;

māku ia e whakaora, māku anō ia e whakahōnore.

16Ka whakaroaina e ahau ōna rā, ā, nā noa ia;

ka whakakitea hoki tāku whakaoranga ki a ia.”
