< Ekoruhe 15 >
1 Katahi ka waiata a Mohi ratou ko nga tama a Iharaira i tenei waiata ki a Ihowa, a ka whakahua, ka mea, Ka waiata ahau ki a Ihowa, he hira noa atu hoki tona kororia: ko te hoiho raua ko tona kaieke, kua panga e ia ki te moana.
Then Moses and the children of Israel sung this canticle to the Lord: and said: Let us sing to the Lord: for he is gloriously magnified, the horse and the rider he hath thrown into the sea.
2 Ko Ihowa toku kaha, taku waiata, ko ia ano hoki hei whakaora moku: ko toku Atua tenei, a maku ia e whakakororia; ko te Atua o toku papa, a maku ia e whakanui.
The Lord is my strength and my praise, and he is become salvation to me: he is my God and I will glorify him: the God of my father, and I will exalt him.
3 He tangata whawhai a ihowa: ko Ihowa tona ingoa.
The Lord is as a man of war, Almighty is his name.
4 Ko nga hariata a Parao, me tana ope, kua maka e ia ki te moana: ko ana rangatira whiriwhiri toremi iho ki te Moana Whero.
Pharao’s chariots and his army he hath cast into the sea: his chosen captains are drowned in the Red Sea.
5 Taupokina iho ratou e nga wai hohonu; totohu ana ratou ki te rire, ano he kamaka.
The depths have covered them, they are sunk to the bottom like a stone.
6 Ka whai kororia tou ringa matau, e Ihowa, mo te kaha: na tou ringa, e Ihowa i mongamonga ai te hoa whawhai.
Thy right hand, O Lord, is magnified in strength: thy right hand, O Lord, hath slain the enemy.
7 Na te nui o tou kaha ka turakina e koe te hunga i whakatika mai ra ki a koe: te whakaputanga o tou riri, pau katoa ratou, me he tumutumu otaota.
And in the multitude of they glory thou hast put down thy adversaries: thou hast sent thy wrath, which hath devoured them like stubble.
8 Na te hau hoki o tou ihu i haupu ai nga wai; i tu ake nga roma, ano he puranga, a whakatotoka ana te rire i te takere o te moana.
And with the blast of thy anger the waters were gathered together: the flowing water stood, the depth were gathered together in the midst of the sea.
9 I mea te hoariri, Ka whai atu ahau, ka hopu, ka tuwha i nga taonga; ka na toku ngakau i a ratou; ka unuhia taku hoari, ma toku ringa ratou e huna.
The enemy said: I will pursue and overtake, I will divide the spoils, my soul shall have its fill: I will draw my sword, my hand shall slay them.
10 I pupuhi atu koe ki tau hau, taupokina iho ratou e te moana; totohu iho ratou, ano he mata, i nga wai nui.
Thy wind blew and the sea covered them: they sunk as lead in the mighty waters.
11 Ko wai o nga atua hei rite mou, e Ihowa? ko wai hei rite mou, e whakamoemititia nei mo te tapu, e wehingia nei, e whakapaingia nei, e mahi nei i nga mea whakamiharo?
Who is like to thee, among the strong, O Lord? who is like to thee, glorious in holiness, terrible and praiseworthy, doing wonders?
12 I totoro atu tou ringa matau, horomia ana ratou e te whenua.
Thou stretchedst forth thy hand, and the earth swallowed them.
13 Na tou atawhai i arahina mai ai e koe te iwi kua hokona nei e koe; na tou kaha i aratakina ai ratou e koe ki tou nohoanga tapu.
In thy mercy thou hast been a leader to the people which thou hast redeemed: and in thy strength thou hast carried them to thy holy habitation.
14 Ka rongo nga iwi, ka tuiri: mau tonu te matapouri ki nga tangata o Pirihitia.
Nations rose up, and were angry: sorrows took hold on the inhabitants of Philisthiim.
15 No reira i ohorere ai nga rangatira o Eroma: ko nga tangata nunui o Moapa, mau tonu te wiri ki a ratou; memeha noa nga tangata katoa o Kanaana.
Then were the princes of Edom troubled, trembling seized on the stout men of Moab: all the inhabitants of Chanaan became stiff.
16 Tau ana ki a ratou te tuiri me te wehi: ma te nui o tou ringa e tu tonu ai ratou, ano he kohatu, kia pahemo ra ano tou iwi, e Ihowa, kia pahemo ra ano tenei iwi kua hokona nei e koe.
Let fear and dread fall upon them, in the greatness of thy arm: let them become unmoveable as a stone, until thy people, O Lord, pass by: until this thy people pass by, which thou hast possessed.
17 Mau ratou e kawe atu, e whakatupu ki te maunga, ki tou kainga o mua iho, ki te wahi, e Ihowa, i hanga e koe hei nohoanga mou, ki te wahi tapu, e te Ariki, i whakapumautia e ou ringa.
Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thy inheritance, in thy most firm habitation which thou hast made, O Lord; thy sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.
18 Hei kingi a Ihowa ake ake.
The Lord shall reign for ever and ever.
19 I haere hoki nga hoiho a Parao, me ana hariata, me ana hoia eke hoiho ki te moana, a na Ihowa i whakahoki nga wai o te moana ki runga ki a ratou: tena ko nga tama a Iharaira, i haere ra te wahi maroke, i waenga moana.
For Pharao went in on horseback with his chariots and horsemen into the sea: and the Lord brought back upon them the waters of the sea: but the children of Israel walked on dry ground in the midst thereof.
20 A ka tango a Miriama poropiti, tuahine o Arona, i te timipera ki tona ringa; a haere atu ana nga wahine katoa i muri i a ia me nga timipera, me te kanikani ano ratou.
So Mary the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand: and all the women went forth after her with timbrels and with dances:
21 A i whakahokia e Miriama ta ratou, Waiata ki a Ihowa, he hira noa atu hoki tona kororia; nana hoki te hoiho raua ko tona kaieke i whiu ki te moana.
And she began the song to them, saying: Let us sing to the Lord, for he is gloriously magnified, the horse and his rider he hath thrown into the sea.
22 A arahina atu ana e Mohi a Iharaira i te Moana Whero, a ka haere ratou ki te koraha o Huri: a e toru nga ra i haere ai ratou i te koraha, a kihai i kitea he wai.
And Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea, and they went forth into the wilderness of Sur: and they marched three days through the wilderness, and found no water.
23 Na ka tae ratou ki Mara, kihai hoki i ahei te inu i nga wai o Mara; he kawa hoki: na reira i huaina ai tona ingoa ko Mara.
And they came into Mara, and they could not drink the waters of Mara, because they were bitter: whereupon he gave a name also agreeable to the place, calling it Mara, that is, bitterness.
24 Na ka amuamu te iwi ki a Mohi, ka mea, Ko te aha hei inu ma matou?
And the people murmured against Moses, saying: What shall we drink?
25 Na ka karanga ia ki a Ihowa; a ka whakakitea mai he rakau e Ihowa ki a ia, a panga ana e ia ki nga wai, na, ka reka nga wai: i homai e ia he ture ki a ratou i reira, me tetahi ritenga; i whakamatauria ratou e ia ki reira.
But he cried to the Lord, and he shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, they were turned into sweetness. There he appointed him ordinances, and judgments, and there he proved him,
26 I mea hoki ia, Ki te rongo marie koe ki te reo o Ihowa, o tou Atua, a ka mahi i te mea tika ki tana titiro, a ka whai taringa ki ana whakahau, ka pupuri hoki i ana tikanga katoa, e kore rawa tetahi o aua mate i whakapangia ki nga Ihipiana e ahau, e whakapangia atu e ahau ki a koe; ko Ihowa hoki ahau e whakaora nei i a koe.
Saying: If thou wilt hear the voice of the Lord thy God, and do what is right before him, and obey his commandments, and keep all his precepts, none of the evils that I laid upon Egypt, will I bring upon thee: for I am the Lord thy healer.
27 Na ka tae ratou ki Erimi, kotahi tekau ma rua nei nga puna wai i reira, me nga nikau e whitu tekau; a ka noho ratou ki reira, ki te taha o nga wai.
And the children of Israel came into Elim, where there were twelve fountains of water, and seventy palm trees: and they encamped by the waters.
