Te Whakapaeanga o Hiruhārama
1 Taukiri e! Tōna haumarurutanga o te kōura!
Tōna putanga kētanga o te kōura parakore, tino pai!
Kua ringihia ngā kōhatu o te wāhi tapu
ki te ahunga mai o ngā ara katoa.
2 Ko ngā tamariki a Hiona ko ngā mea papai,
i rite nei ki te kōura parakore, taukiri e!
Kua kīia rātou he hāka oneone,
he mea hanga nā ngā ringa o te kaipokepoke.
3 Ko ngā kīrehe mohoao nei hoki, e tukua iho ana te ū e rātou,
e whakangotea ana e rātou ā rātou kūao;
kua taikaha te tamāhine a tōku iwi,
kua rite ki ngā otereti o te koraha.
4 Piri ana te arero o te tamaiti
ngote ū ki te ngao o tōna māngai i te hiainu;
e tono ana ngā kōhungahunga i te taro mā rātou,
heoi kāhore he tangata hei whatiwhati atu mā rātou.
5 Ko te hunga i kai i ngā mea papai
kei te noho mokemoke i ngā ara.
Ko te hunga i whakatupuria i roto i ngā kākahu ngangana,
kei te awhi i ngā pūranga paru.
6 Nō te mea ko te hē o te tamāhine a tōku iwi
nui atu i te hara o Horoma,
i hurihia ohoreretia rā i mua,
kāhore hoki he ringa i ū ki a ia.
7 Ko ōna rangatira pai atu i te hukarere te pokekore,
mā atu hoki rātou i te waiū,
pūwhero ake ō rātou tinana i ngā rupi,
orohina ake rātou ki te oro o te hapaira.
8 Mangu iho tō rātou mata i tētahi ngārahu;
kāhore rātou e mōhiotia i ngā ara.
Piri tonu ō rātou kiri ki ō rātou wheua;
kua memenge, kua rite ki te rākau.
9 Ko te hunga i patua e te hoari,
pai ake tō rātou i tō te hunga i patua e te hemokai;
nō te mea ka honia noatia ēnei, ka werohia,
he kore hoki nō ngā hua o te māra.
10 Ko ngā wāhine, ko te hunga aroha,
kei te kōhua i ā rātou tamariki ki ō rātou ringa;
he kai ērā mā rātou
i te wawāhanga o te tamāhine a tōku iwi.
11 Kua whakapaua e Ihowā tōna riri nui,
kua ringihia mai e ia tōna riri nui;
kua tahuna hoki e ia he ahi ki Hiona,
nā reira i pau ai ōna tūranga.
12 Kīhai i whakapono mai ngā kīngi o te whenua,
kīhai anō hoki ngā tāngata o te ao,
tērā te hoariri rāua ko te hoa whawhai e tomo mai
ki ngā kūwaha o Hiruhārama.
13 I pērā ai he hara nō ōna poropiti,
he hē nō ōna tohunga kua whakaheke nei
i ngā toto o te hunga tika
ki waenganui ōna.
14 E kōpikopiko ana rātou
ānō he matapō i ngā ara;
Kua poke rātou i te toto,
tē pā ai te tangata ki ō rātou kākahu.
15 I karanga rātou ki a rātou; “Haere atu, e poke ana!
Haere atu, haere atu, kei pā!”
I tō rātou whatinga, i a rātou e ātiutiu noa atu ana,
i kī ngā tāngata i roto i ngā tauiwi,
“Kāhore he nohoanga iho mō rātou ki konei.”
16 Kua wehewehea rātou e te riri o Ihowā;
e kore ia e titiro ki a rātou i muri nei.
Kīhai rātou i whakaaro ki ngā kanohi o ngā tohunga,
kīhai i manako ki ngā kaumātua.
17 E matawaia tonu ana ō tātou kanohi
i a tātou e titiro ana ki te āwhina tekateka noa mō tātou;
i a tātou e tiaki atu ana,
i whanga noa tātou ki te iwi e kore e whakaora.
18 E whāia ana e rātou ō tātou hīkoinga,
tē haere ai tātou i ō tātou waharoa.
Kua tata tō tātou whakamutunga, kua rite ō tātou rā;
nō te mea kua tae mai tō tātou whakamutunga.
19 Nui atu te tere o ō tātou kaiwhai
i tō ngā ēkara o te rangi;
i arumia tātou e rātou i runga i ngā maunga;
i whanga mai anō rātou ki a tātou i te koraha.
20 Ko te manawa o ō tātou pongaponga,
ko tā Ihowā i whakawahi ai,
i mau ki roto ki ā rātou rua;
i kī rā tātou mōna, “Mā tōna taumarumarunga iho
ka ora ai tātou i roto i ngā tauiwi.”
21 Kia hari, kia koa, e te tamāhine a Ēroma
e noho nā i te whenua o Uhu;
ka tae atu anō te kapu ki a koe;
ka haurangi koe, ka whakarere anō koe i ōu kākahu.
22 Kua rite te whiu mō tōu hē, e te tamāhine a Hiona;
heoi anō tāna whakaraunga i a koe.
Ka whiua e ia tōu hē, e te tamāhine a Ēroma,
ka hurahia anō e ia ōu hara.
