He Waiata ā-Iwi mō te Wikitōria
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He hīmene, he waiata nā Rāwiri.
1 Kia ara te Atua, kia marara ōna hoariri;
kia whati hoki i tōna aroaro te hunga e kino ana ki a ia.
2 Āia atu rātou, pērātia me te paowa e āia ana;
kia rite ki te ware pī e rewa ana i te kāpura
te ngaromanga o te hunga kino i te aroaro o te Atua.
3 Kia koa ia te hunga tika
kia hari i te aroaro o te Atua;
āe rā, kia tino hari pū rātou.
4 Waiata ki te Atua, hīmenetia tōna ingoa;
opehia ake he huanui mō tana hāriata i ngā koraha –
tōna ingoa ko IHA –
kia hari hoki ki tōna aroaro.
5 Hei matua mō ngā pani, hei kaiwhakarite mō ngā pouaru,
te Atua i tōna nohoanga tapu.
6 E whakanohoia ana e te Atua te mokemoke ki te whare,
e whakaputaina ana e ia ngā herehere ki te ora;
ko te hunga tutū ia e noho i te wāhi waikore.
7 E te Atua, i tōu haerenga atu i mua i tāu iwi;
i tōu haerenga i te koraha;
Hera
8 i wiri te whenua,
i tūturu iho anō ngā rangi
i te aroaro o te Atua; me taua Hinai anō
i te aroaro o te Atua, o te Atua o Īharaira.
9 I tāia mai, e koe, e te Atua, he ua nui;
ā, i tōu kāinga e ruwha ana ka whakaūkia e koe.
10 I noho tāu whakaminenga ki reira;
nā tōu pai, e te Atua, i mea kai ai koe mā ngā rawakore.
11 Ka hōmai e Ihowā te kupu;
he ope nui ngā wāhine whakapuaki:
12 “Whati rawa ngā kīngi o ngā taua!”
Ā, ko te wahine i noho i te whare,
kei te tuwha i ngā parakete.
13 I a koutou ka takoto noa i ngā takotoranga hipi,
he rite ki ngā pākau o te kūkupa
kua paparuatia nei ki te hiriwa,
ōna hou ki te kōura whero.
14 I te whakamararatanga a te Kaha Rawa i ngā kīngi i reira,
koia anō kei te hukarere o Taramono te mā.
15 He maunga Atua a Maunga Pahana;
he maunga tiketike a Maunga Pahana.
16 He aha koutou ka titiro tītaha ai, e ngā maunga tiketike,
ki te maunga i hiahiatia nei e te Atua kia nohoia e ia,
āe, ka nohoia e Ihowā ake ake?
17 Ko ngā hāriata a te Atua, e rua tekau mano,
mano mano iho;
kei roto i a rātou te Ariki, me te mea ko Hinai, ko te wāhi tapu.
18 Kua kake koe ki runga,
kua whakaraua e koe te whakarau;
kua riro i a koe he ohaoha mō te tangata;
āe, mō te hunga tutū anō, kia noho ai a Ihowā, te Atua ki a rātou.
19 Kia whakapaingia te Ariki,
e whakawaha nei i tā tātou pīkaunga i tēnei rā, i tēnei rā,
te Atua o tō tātou whakaoranga.
Hera
20 Ko tō tātou Atua te Atua o te whakaoranga;
nā Ihowā anō, nā te Ariki, ngā putanga ake i te mate.
21 Ka marū ia i te Atua te mātenga o ōna hoariri;
me te tumuaki huruhuru o te tangata e haere tonu ana i āna kino.
22 I mea te Ariki, “Ka whakahokia mai e ahau i Pahana,
ka whakahokia mai e ahau tāku iwi i ngā rire o te moana;
23 kia toua ai tōu waewae ki te toto,
kia whiwhi ai te arero o āu kurī ki tāna wāhi o ōu hoariri.”
24 I kite rātou, e te Atua, i ōu haerenga, i
ngā haerenga o tōku Atua, o tōku Kīngi, i te wāhi tapu.
25 Ko ngā kaiwaiata i haere i mua, i muri ko ngā kaiwhakatangi,
i waenganui ko ngā kōtiro e patupatu ana i ngā timipera.
26 “Whakapaingia te Atua i roto i ngā whakaminenga,
te Ariki hoki, e ngā mea i puta mai i te mātāpuna o Īharaira!”
27 Kei reira a Pineamine, te whakaotinga, tō rātou ariki,
ngā rangatira o Hūrā, me tō rātou rōpū,
ngā rangatira o Hepurona, me ngā rangatira o Napatari.
28 Kua oti he kaha mōu te whakahau iho e tōu Atua;
whakaūkia, e te Atua, tāu i mea ai mō mātou.
29 Ka maua mai e ngā kīngi he hākari ki a koe,
mō tōu temepara i Hiruhārama.
30 Rīria te kīrehe o ngā kākaho,
te huinga pūru, me ngā kūao kau a ngā iwi,
me te takahi i ngā pīhi hiriwa ki raro;
whakamararatia ngā iwi e āhuareka ana ki te whāinga.
31 E puta mai ngā rangatira i Īhipa;
meāke hohoro te totoro o ngā ringa o Etiopia ki te Atua.
32 Waiata ki te Atua, e ngā rangatiratanga o te whenua;
hīmene ki te Ariki;
Hera
33 ki a ia, ko tōna hāriata nei ko ngā rangi o ngā rangi, nōnamata;
nā, ka puaki tōna reo, he reo kaha.
34 Waiho te kaha i te Atua,
kei runga nei i a Īharaira tāna mahi rangatira;
kei ngā kapua hoki tōna kaha.
35 Ka wehingia koe, e te Atua, i roto i ōu wāhi tapu;
ko te Atua o Īharaira te kaihōmai i te kaha, i te mana, ki tōna iwi.
Whakapaingia te Atua!
