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 people of Israel sang this song to Yahweh. They sang, “I will sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and its rider he has 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.
Yahweh is my strength and song, and he has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise him, my father's God, and I will exalt him.
3 He tangata whawhai a ihowa: ko Ihowa tona ingoa.
Yahweh is a warrior; Yahweh 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.
He has thrown Pharaoh's chariots and army into the sea. Pharaoh's chosen officers were drowned in the Sea of Reeds.
5 Taupokina iho ratou e nga wai hohonu; totohu ana ratou ki te rire, ano he kamaka.
The depths covered them; they went down into the depths 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.
Your right hand, Yahweh, is glorious in power; your right hand, Yahweh, has shattered 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.
In great majesty you overthrew those who rose up against you. You sent out your wrath; it consumed 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.
By the blast of your nostrils the waters were piled up; the flowing waters stood upright in a heap; the deep water was congealed in the heart 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, I will overtake, I will share out the plunder; my desire will be satisfied on them; I will draw my sword; my hand will destroy 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.
But you blew with your wind, and the sea covered them; they sank like 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 you, Yahweh, among the gods? Who is like you, majestic in holiness, honored in praises, doing miracles?
12 I totoro atu tou ringa matau, horomia ana ratou e te whenua.
You reached out with your right 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 your covenant loyalty you have led the people you have rescued. In your strength you have led them to the holy place where you live.
14 Ka rongo nga iwi, ka tuiri: mau tonu te matapouri ki nga tangata o Pirihitia.
The peoples will hear, and they will tremble; terror will seize the inhabitants of Philistia.
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 the chiefs of Edom will fear; the soldiers of Moab will shake; all the inhabitants of Canaan will melt away.
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.
Terror and dread will fall on them. Because of your arm's power, they will become as still as a stone until your people pass by, Yahweh— until the people you have rescued pass by.
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.
You will bring them and plant them on the mountain of your inheritance, the place, Yahweh, that you have made to live in, the sanctuary, our Lord, that your hands have built.
18 Hei kingi a Ihowa ake ake.
Yahweh will reign forever 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 Pharaoh's horses went with his chariots and horsemen into the sea. Yahweh brought back the waters of the sea on them. But the Israelites walked on dry land in the middle of the sea.
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.
Miriam the prophetess, sister of Aaron, picked up a tambourine, and all the women went out with tambourines, dancing along with her.
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.
Miriam sang to them: “Sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously. The horse and his rider he has 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.
Then Moses led Israel onward from the Sea of Reeds. They went out into the wilderness of Shur. They traveled for three days into 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.
Then they came to Marah, but they could not drink the water there because it was bitter. So they called that place Marah.
24 Na ka amuamu te iwi ki a Mohi, ka mea, Ko te aha hei inu ma matou?
So the people complained to Moses and said, “What can 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.
Moses cried out to Yahweh, and Yahweh showed him a tree. Moses threw it into the water, and the water became sweet to drink. It was there that Yahweh gave them a strict law, and it was there that he tested them.
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.
He said, “If you carefully listen to the voice of Yahweh your God, and do what is right in his eyes, and if you give ear to his commands and obey all his laws—I will put on you none of the diseases that I put on the Egyptians, for I am Yahweh who heals you.”
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.
Then the people came to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees. They camped there by the water.
