Ihāia 31 - Maori Bible 2012(MRI2012)

Ka Huakore te Haumi ki Īhipa

1Auē te mate mō te hunga e haere ana ki raro,

ki Īhipa ki te tiki whakauru,

e okioki ana ki te hōiho;

e whakawhirinaki ana ki te hāriata,

nō te mea he maha,

ki te kaieke hōiho anō,

nō te mea he nui te kaha;

kāhore ia e titiro ki te Mea Tapu o Īharaira,

kāhore hoki e rapu tikanga ki a Ihowā!

2Otiia he whakaaro nui anō ia,

ka tākina mai anō te kino e ia,

e kore anō āna kupu e unuhia e ia;

engari ka whakatika ia ki te whare o ngā kaimahi i te kino,

ki ngā whakauru o ngā kaimahi i te hē.

3Nā, he tangata nei ngā Īhipiana, ehara hoki i te Atua;

he kikokiko anō hoki ō rātou hōiho, ehara i te wairua.

Te whakamārōkanga mai o tō Ihowā ringa,

ka hinga te kaiāwhina,

taka tonu atu te tangata e āwhinatia ana,

ā, ka hē ngātahi rātou.

4Ko tā Ihowā kupu hoki tēnei ki ahau:

“Ka rite ki te raiona,

ki te kūao raiona e hāmama ana ki tāna tūpāpaku,

i te mea ka kārangarangatia

ngā hēpara tokomaha ki a ia,

kāhore ōna wehi ki tō rātou reo,

e kore anō ia e whakaririka ki tō rātou ngangau;

ka pērā anō te haerenga iho o Ihowā o ngā mano

ki te whawhai ki runga ki Maunga Hiona

me tō reira pukepuke.

5Ka rite ki ngā manu e rere ana tā Ihowā o ngā mano

tiaki i Hiruhārama,

ka tiakina, ka whakaorangia,

ka tika atu ia nā runga, ka araaraia e ia.”

6Tahuri ki a ia, kua hōhonu rawa nei tā koutou tutū ki a ia, e ngā tama a Īharaira.

7Ā taua rā hoki ka whakahāwea te tangata ki āna whakapakoko hiriwa, ki āna whakapakoko kōura, i hangā e ō koutou ringa mā koutou hei hara.

8“Hei reira te Ahiriana ka hinga i te hoari, ehara nā te tangata;

ā, ka pau ia i te hoari, ehara i te tangata;

ā, ka rere atu ia i te hoari,

ka meinga hoki āna taitamariki kia utu takoha.

9Ā, ka memeha tōna kāmaka, he wehi hoki,

ā, ka mataku ōna rangatira i te kara,”

e ai tā Ihowā,

kei Maunga Hiona nei tāna ahi,

kei Hiruhārama tāna oumu.
