Ihāia 45 - Maori Bible 2012(MRI2012)

Ka Whakawahia e Ihowā a Hairuha

1“Ko te kupu tēnei a Ihowā ki tāna i whakawahi ai,

ki a Hairuha, he mea pupuri nei nāku tōna ringa matau,

kia pēhia ai e ia ngā iwi ki raro i a ia;

māku anō e wewete tō ngā hope o ngā kīngi;

ko ngā tatau ka whakapuaretia ki tōna aroaro;

e kore anō ngā kūwaha e tūtakina:

2Ko ahau e haere i mua i a koe,

ki te whakatikatika i ngā wāhi tāpokopoko;

ko ngā tatau parāhi ka pakaru i ahau;

ka tapahia anō e ahau ngā tūtaki rino.

3Ka hoatu anō e ahau ki a koe ngā taonga o te pōuri,

me ngā mea huna o ngā wāhi ngaro,

kia mōhio ai koe ko Ihowā ahau,

e whakahua atu nei i tōu ingoa, ko te Atua o Īharaira.

4He whakaaro nāku ki tāku pononga, ki a Hākopa,

ki a Īharaira, ki tāku i whiriwhiri ai,

nā reira koe, tōu ingoa, i karangatia ai e ahau;

whakahuatia ana e ahau tōu ingoa

i te mea kāhore anō koe kia mōhio ki ahau.

5Ko Ihowā ahau, kāhore atu hoki;

kāhore kē atu he Atua, ko ahau anake;

māku koe e whītiki, ahakoa kāhore koe i mōhio ki ahau;

6kia mōhio ai te hunga i te rāwhiti me o te uru,

kāhore atu, ko ahau anake.

Ko Ihowā ahau, kāhore kē atu.

7Nāku te mārama i whai āhua ai, nāku i hanga te pōuri;

ko ahau te kaihohou rongo, te kaihanga anō o te kino;

ko ahau, ko Ihowā, te kaimahi o ēnei mea katoa.

8“Māturuturu iho, e ngā rangi i runga;

kia ringihia mai anō he tika e ngā kapua;

kia puare te whenua, kia hua te whakaora,

kia wana ngātahi te tika;

nāku, nā Ihowā, taua mea i hanga.

9“Auē te mate mō te tangata e totohe ana ki tōna Kaiwhakaahua!

He maramara rīhi i roto i ngā maramara rīhi o te oneone!

E mea ake rānei te paru ki tōna kaiwhakaahua,

‘He aha tāu e mahi nā’?

E mea rānei tāu i hanga ai,

‘Kāhore ōna ringa?’

10Auē te mate mō te tangata e mea ana ki tōna pāpā,

‘He aha tāu kua whānau nei?’

ki te wahine rānei,

‘He aha te mea ka whakamamae nā koe?’ ”

11Ko te kupu tēnei a Ihowā,

a te Mea Tapu o Īharaira, a tōna Kaiwhakaahua anō:

“Uia mai ki ahau ngā mea e puta mai ā mua,

ko ngā meatanga ki āku tamariki,

ki te mahi hoki a ōku ringa, whakahaua mai ahau e koe.

12Nāku i mahi te whenua,

i hanga hoki ngā tāngata o runga;

nāku, nā ōku ringa i hora ngā rangi;

ko ō rātou mano katoa he mea whakahau nāku.

13Nāku ia i whakaara ake i runga i te tika,

māku anō e whakatikatika ōna ara katoa;

ko ia hei hanga i tōku pā,

hei tuku i āku pārau kia haere,

kāhore hoki he utu, kāhore he moni whakapati,

e ai tā Ihowā o ngā mano.”

14Ko te kupu tēnei a Ihowā:

“Ko ngā māuiui o Īhipa, ko ngā taonga hokohoko o Etiopia,

ko ngā Tapeani, he tāngata roroa,

ka tae mai ki a koe, ā, ka riro i a koe;

ka whai rātou i a koe;

ka tae mekameka mai, ka piko ki a koe,

ka mea, ‘He pono kei roto i a koe te Atua,

kāhore atu hoki, kāhore he Atua.’ ”

15He pono he Atua koe e whakangaro ana i a koe,

e te Atua o Īharaira, e te Kaiwhakaora.

16Ka whakamā, āe rā, ka numinumi kau rātou katoa;

ka riro ngātahi ki te whakamā ngā kaimahi o ngā whakapakoko.

17Ko Īharaira ia, ka ora i roto i a Ihowā,

he whakaoranga pūmau tonu;

e kore koutou e whakamā, e kore e numinumi

ā ake ake.

18Ko te kupu hoki tēnei a Ihowā,

a te kaihanga o ngā rangi;

ko ia te Atua;

nāna i whakawhaiahua te whenua,

nāna i mahi; nāna i whakapūmau,

kīhai i hangā e ia hei takoto kau,

i whakaahuatia e ia hei nohoanga:

“Ko Ihowā ahau, kāhore kē atu.

19Kīhai ahau i kōrero i te wāhi ngaro,

i te wāhi pōuri o te whenua;

kīhai ahau i mea ki te uri o Hākopa,

‘Rapua ahau, he mea noa iho.’

Ko tāku kōrero, ko tā Ihowā, kei te tika,

e whakaatu ana i ngā mea e rite ana.”

Ko Ihowā Anake ka Whakaora

20“Huihui, haere mai, whakatata ngātahi mai,

e ngā oranga o ngā iwi.

Kāhore he mōhio o te hunga

e mau ana i te rākau o tā rātou whakapakoko,

e īnoi ana ki te atua

e kore nei e whakaora.

21Whakaaturia, kawea mai kia tata,

kia whakatakoto whakaaro ngātahi rātou.

Nā wai tēnei i kōrero i mua riro,

nā wai i whakaatu i ngā wā onamata?

He teka ianei nāku, nā Ihowā?

Kore atu hoki he atua, ko ahau anake;

he Atua tika, he kaiwhakaora;

kāhore kē atu, ko ahau anake.

22“Tahuri mai ki ahau, kia ora ai koutou,

e ngā pito katoa o te whenua;

ko te Atua hoki ahau, kāhore kē atu.

23Kua waiho ahau e ahau anō hei oati;

kua puta atu te kupu i tōku māngai i runga i te tika,

e kore anō e hoki mai, arā:

‘Ka tūturi ngā turi katoa ki ahau,

ka oati mai anō ngā arero katoa.’

24“Ka mea mai tētahi ki ahau,

‘Kei a Ihowā anake te tika, te kaha.’

Ka haere mai ki a ia ngā tāngata,

ā, ko ngā tāngata katoa i riri ki a ia ka whakamā.

25Mā Ihowā ka tika ai,

ka whakamanamana ai te uri katoa o Īharaira.”
