Te Nohopuku Pono

1“Kia rahi te karanga, kaua e kaiponuhia!

Kia rite ki te tētere te nui o tōu reo!

Whakaaturia ki tāku iwi tō rātou poka kē,

ō rātou hara ki te whare o Hākopa.

2He rapu anō ia tā rātou i ahau i tēnei rā, i tēnei rā,

e āhuareka ana hoki ki te mōhio ki āku ara;

me te mea he iwi e mahi ana i te tika,

ā, kīhai i whakarere i te whakaritenga a tōna Atua,

e ui ana rātou ki ahau ki ngā whakaritenga o te tika,

e āhuareka ana ki te awhi ki te Atua.

3Ko tā rātou kī, ‘He aha mātou i nohopuku ai,

ā, kāhore koe e titiro mai?

He aha mātou i whakapōuri ai i ō mātou wairua,

tē mōhio mai koe?’

“Nanā, i te rā e nohopuku ai koutou e kitea ana e koutou te āhuareka mō koutou anō;

e akiakina ana hoki e koutou ā koutou whakamāuiui katoa.

4Nanā, ko tā koutou nohopuku; hei mea totohe, hei mea ngangare,

kia moto ai ki te ringa o te kino.

Kāhore koutou i nohopuku i tēnei rā

hei mea kia rangona ai tō koutou reo i runga.

5Ko tāku nohopuku ianei tēnei, i whiriwhiri ai?

He rā e whakapōuri ai te tangata i tōna wairua?

He tuohu koia nō te māhunga o te tangata, ānō he kākaho?

He whāriki i te kākahu taratara, i te pungarehu, ki raro i a ia?

E kīia rānei tēnei e koe he nohopuku,

he rā e manakohia ana e Ihowā?

6“He teka ianei ko te nohopuku tēnei i whiriwhiria e ahau?

Kia whakatangorotia ngā here a te kino,

kia wetekina ngā paihere o te ioka,

kia tukua te hunga e tūkinotia ana kia haere noa atu,

kia wāwāhia e koutou ngā ioka katoa?

7He teka ianei ko te tuwha i tāu taro mā te tangata e mate ana i te kai,

ko te mau mai ki tōu whare i ngā rawakore i peia atu?

Kia hīpokina hoki te tangata e tū tahanga ana, ina kitea e koe;

kia kaua hoki e huna i a koe i ōu kikokiko ake?

8Ko reira tōu mārama puta ai, ānō ko te pūaotanga,

ka hohoro anō ōu mate te mahu;

ka haere tōu tika ki mua i a koe,

ko te korōria anō o Ihowā hei hiku mōu.

9Ko reira koe karanga ai, ā, ka whakahoki kupu mai a Ihowā;

ka tangi koe, ā, ka mea ia: Tēnei ahau.

“Ki te whakarērea atu e koe te ioka i waenganui i a koe,

te kōkirihanga atu o te maihao, me te kōrero kino;

10ki te mea anō ka whai ngākau koe ki te tangata matekai,

ā, ka mākona i a koe te wairua e pēhia ana e te mamae;

ko reira tōu mārama puta ai i roto i te pōuri,

ka rite hoki tōu pōuri ki te poutūmārō.

11Ka ārahina tonutia anō koe e Ihowā,

ka mākona anō tōu wairua i a ia i ngā wāhi kore wai,

ka whakakahangia anō ōu wheua;

ā, ka rite koe ki te kāri kua oti te whakamākūkū ki te wai,

ki te puna hoki e pupū ake ana,

e kore nei ōna wai e poto.

12Ka hangā anō e ōu uri ngā wāhi kua ururuatia noatia ake;

ka ara anō i a koe ngā tūranga o ngā whakapaparanga maha;

ā, ka huaina koe, Ko te kaihanga o te taiepa pakaru,

Ko te kaiwhakahou o ngā wāhi i ngā ara hei nohoanga.

13“Ki te tahuri atu tōu waewae i te hāpati,

i te mea i tāu i pai ai i tāku rā tapu,

ā, ka kīia e koe te hāpati he āhuareka,

he tapu nō Ihowā, he mea hōnore,

ā, ka whakahōnoretia ia e koe,

ka kore hoki e mahi i ōu ara ake,

e kite i āu ake e āhuareka ai,

e kōrero i āu kōrero ake;

14kātahi koe ka whai oranga ngākau i roto i a Ihowā;

ka meinga anō e ahau ngā wāhi tiketike o te whenua hei hōiho mōu;

ka whāngaia hoki koe ki te wāhi tupu a tōu pāpā, a Hākopa.”

Nā te māngai hoki o Ihowā te kupu.
