Te Waiata a Mohi
1 Kātahi ka waiata a Mohi rātou ko ngā tama a Īharaira i tēnei waiata ki a Ihowā, ā, ka whakahua, ka mea:
“Ka waiata ahau ki a Ihowā,
he hira noa atu hoki tōna korōria;
ko te hōiho rāua ko tōna kaieke,
kua pangā e ia ki te moana.
2 Ko Ihowā tōku kaha, tāku waiata,
ko ia anō hoki hei whakaora mōku;
ko tōku Atua tēnei, ā, māku ia e whakakorōria;
ko te Atua o tōku pāpā, ā, māku ia e whakanui.
3 He tangata whawhai a Ihowā;
ko Ihowā tōna ingoa.
4 Ko ngā hāriata a Parao, me tāna ope,
kua makā e ia ki te moana;
ko āna rangatira whiriwhiri
toremi iho ki te Moana Whero.
5 Taupokina iho rātou e ngā wai hōhonu;
totohu ana rātou ki te rire, ānō he kāmaka.
6 “Ka whai korōria tōu ringa matau, e Ihowā,
mō te kaha;
nā tōu ringa, e Ihowā
i mongamonga ai te hoa whawhai.
7 Nā te nui o tōu kaha ka turakina e koe
te hunga i whakatika mai rā ki a koe.
Te whakaputanga o tōu riri, pau katoa rātou,
me he tumutumu otaota.
8 Nā te hau hoki o tōu ihu i haupū ai ngā wai;
i tū ake ngā roma, ānō he pūranga,
ā, whakatotoka ana te rire i te takere o te moana.
9 “I mea te hoariri, ‘Ka whai atu ahau, ka hopu,
ka tuwha i ngā taonga, ka nā tōku ngākau i a rātou;
ka unuhia tāku hoari, mā tōku ringa rātou e huna.’
10 I pupuhi atu koe ki tāu hau,
taupokina iho rātou e te moana;
totohu iho rātou, ānō he matā,
i ngā wai nui.
11 “Ko wai o ngā atua hei rite mōu, e Ihowā?
Ko wai hei rite mōu, e whakamoemititia nei mō te tapu,
e wehingia nei, e whakapaingia nei,
e mahi nei i ngā mea whakamīharo?
12 I totoro atu tōu ringa matau,
horomia ana rātou e te whenua.
13 “Nā tōu atawhai i ārahina mai ai e koe
te iwi kua hokona nei e koe;
nā tōu kaha i aratakina ai rātou e koe
ki tōu nohoanga tapu.
14 Ka rongo ngā iwi, ka tūiri;
mau tonu te matapōuri ki ngā tāngata o Pirihitia.
15 Nō reira i ohorere ai ngā rangatira o Ēroma;
ko ngā tāngata nunui o Moapa,
mau tonu te wiri ki a rātou;
memeha noa ngā tāngata katoa o Kanaana.
16 Tau ana ki a rātou te tūiri me te wehi;
mā te nui o tōu ringa
e tū tonu ai rātou, ānō he kōhatu,
kia pahemo rā anō tāu iwi, e Ihowā,
kia pahemo rā anō tēnei iwi kua hokona nei e koe.
17 Māu rātou e kawe atu, e whakatupu ki te maunga,
ki tōu kāinga ō mua iho, ki te wāhi, e Ihowā,
i hangā e koe hei nohoanga mōu,
ki te wāhi tapu, e te Ariki, i whakapūmautia e ōu ringa.
18 Hei kīngi a Ihowā ake ake.”
19 I haere hoki ngā hōiho a Parao, me ana hāriata, me āna hōia eke hōiho ki te moana, ā, nā Ihowā i whakahoki ngā wai o te moana ki runga ki a rātou; tēnā ko ngā tama a Īharaira, i haere rā te wāhi maroke, i waenga moana.
Te Waiata a Miriama
20 Ā, ka tango a Miriama poropiti, tuahine o Ārona, i te timipera ki tōna ringa; ā, haere atu ana ngā wāhine katoa i muri i a ia me ngā timipera, me te kanikani anō rātou. 21 Ā, i whakahokia e Miriama tā rātou:
“Waiata ki a Ihowā,
he hira noa atu hoki tōna korōria;
nāna hoki te hōiho rāua ko tōna kaieke
i whiu ki te moana.”
Ngā Wai Kawa
22 Ā, ārahina atu ana e Mohi a Īharaira i te Moana Whero, ā, ka haere rātou ki te koraha o Huri, ā, e toru ngā rā i haere ai rātou i te koraha, ā, kīhai i kitea he wai. 23 Nā, ka tae rātou ki Mara, kīhai hoki i āhei te inu i ngā wai o Mara; he kawa hoki. Nā reira i huaina ai tōna ingoa ko Mara. 24 Nā, ka amuamu te iwi ki a Mohi, ka mea, “Ko te aha hei inu mā mātou?”
25 Nā, ka karanga ia ki a Ihowā; ā, ka whakakitea mai he rākau e Ihowā ki a ia, ā, pangā ana e ia ki ngā wai, nā, ka reka ngā wai.
I hōmai e ia he ture ki a rātou i reira, me tētahi ritenga; i whakamātauria rātou e ia ki reira. 26 I mea hoki ia, “Ki te rongo mārie koe ki te reo o Ihowā, o tōu Atua, ā, ka mahi i te mea tika ki tāna titiro, ā, ka whai taringa ki āna whakahau, ka pupuri hoki i āna tikanga katoa, e kore rawa tētahi o aua mate i whakapāngia ki ngā Īhipiana e ahau, e whakapāngia atu e ahau ki a koe. Ko Ihowā hoki ahau e whakaora nei i a koe.”
27 Nā, ka tae rātou ki Erimi, kotahi tekau mā rua nei ngā puna wai i reira, me ngā nīkau e whitu tekau; ā, ka noho rātou ki reira, ki te taha o ngā wai.
