Te Whakautu a Ihowā ki a Hapakuku

1Ka tū ahau ki tāku mahi tiaki,

ka whakanoho i ahau ki te taumaihi.

Ka tūtei atu, ka titiro atu, ko te aha e kīia mai e ia ki ahau,

ā, ko te aha e whakahokia e ahau ina rīria tāku.

2Nā, ka utua mai tāku e Ihowā, i kī mai ia:

“Tuhituhia te kite;

kia mārama rawa ki ngā papa,

kia tere ai te kaikōrero.

3Mō tōna wā anō hoki i whakaritea ai te kite,

ā, e whawhai ana ia ki te mutunga, ā, e kore e teka.

Ahakoa roa ia, tatari atu ki a ia;

nō te mea he pono rawa ka puta mai;

e kore e whakaroa.

4“Nanā, kei te whakakake tōna ngākau,

kāhore e tika i roto i a ia;

mā tōna whakapono ia ka ora ai te tangata tika.

5Āe rā hoki, he mea nanakia te wāina,

he tangata whakakake, kāhore e āta noho i te kāinga.

Ko tōna hiahia whakanuia ake e ia ānō ko te rēinga,

kei te mate tōna rite, e kore anō e ngata.

E tāwhiua ana hoki e ia ngā iwi katoa ki a ia,

e taupuatia ana ngā tāngata katoa ki a ia.”

Ngā Auraki o te Hunga Kino

6“E kore ianei e whakahuatia e ēnei katoa he kupu whakatauki mōna, he whakapeka taunu anō mōna, ā, ka mea,

‘Auē te mate mō te tangata e āmi ana i te mea ehara nei i a ia!

He pēhea rā te roa mō te tangata anō e haupū ake ana

i te taunaha ki runga ki a ia?’

7E kore ianei e maranga ohorere ake ngā kaingau mōu?

E kore ianei e ara ngā kaiwhakatoi i a koe,

ā, ka waiho koe hei taonga pārau mā rātou?

8Nō te mea he maha ngā iwi i pāhuatia e koe,

nā, ka pāhuatia koe e ngā toenga katoa o ngā iwi –

he mea hoki mō te toto o ngā tāngata, mō te mahi nanakia ki te whenua,

ki te pā, ā, ki ngā tāngata katoa anō i reira.

9“Auē te mate mō te tangata,

he kino nei te apo i apo taonga ai ia mō tōna whare,

he mea kia tiketike ake ai tōna kōhanga,

kia ora ai ia i te kaha o te kino!”

10Kua takoto i a koe he whakamā mō tōu whare

i tāu hātepenga atu i ngā iwi maha;

kua hara anō ki tōu wairua ake.

11Ka karanga hoki te kōhatu i roto i te pakitara,

ka whakahoki kupu anō te kurupae i roto i ngā rākau.

12“Auē te mate mō te tangata e hanga ana i te pā ki te toto,

e whakaū ana hoki i te pā ki te hē!”

13He teka ianei nā Ihowā o ngā mano

i māuiui ai ngā tāngata i roto i te ahi,

i ruha ai ngā iwi i te kāhore noa iho?

14Ka kapi hoki te whenua

i te mātauranga ki te korōria o Ihowā,

ānō ko ngā wai e taupoki ana i te moana.

15“Auē te mate mō te tangata e mea ana i tōna hoa kia inu,

e āpiti atu ana i te mea nanakia ki tērā, e whakahaurangi ana hoki i a ia,

kia titiro ai koe ki a rātou e takoto tahanga ana!”

16E kī ana koe i te whakamā, kāhore i te korōria.

E inu hoki koe, kia waiho ai koe, ānō he mea kokotikore.

Ka anga mai ki a koe te kapu a tō Ihowā ringa matau,

ā, he whakamā whakarihariha ka tau ki runga ki tōu korōria.

17Ko te mahi nanakia hoki ki Repanōna hei taupoki mōu,

me te whakangaromanga o ngā kararehe i wehingia rā e rātou –

mō te toto hoki o ngā tāngata,

mō te mahi nanakia ki te whenua,

ki te pā, ki ngā tāngata anō o reira.

18“He aha te pai o te whakapakoko

i whaoa ai e tōna kaihanga –

o te whakapakoko whakarewa anō, o te kaiwhakaako ki te teka?

I whakawhirinaki ai tōna kaihanga ki tāna mahi,

ka mahi i ngā whakapakoko wahangū.

19Auē te mate mō te tangata e mea ana ki te rākau, ‘Maranga!’

Ki te kōhatu reokore, ‘E ara!’

Mā tēnei koia e whakaako?

Nanā, kua oti te kōura, te hiriwa, te whakapiri ki a ia,

ā, kāhore rawa he wairua i roto.

20Kei tōna temepara tapu ia a Ihowā.

Whakarongoa, e te whenua katoa, i tōna aroaro!”
