Ihaia 12

1 A i taua ra ka mea koe, Ka whakamoemiti atu ahau ki a koe, e Ihowa: ahakoa hoki i riri koe ki ahau, kua tahuri atu tou riri, a kei te whakamarie koe i ahau.

And you have said in that day: “I thank you, O YHWH, Though You have been angry with me, Your anger turns back, And You comfort me.

2 Nana, ko te Atua toku whakaoranga; ka whakawhirinaki ahau, e kore ano e wehi; ko te Ariki hoki, ko IHOWA toku kaha, taku waiata, ko ia ano hei whakaoranga moku.

Behold, God [is] my salvation, I trust, and do not fear, For my strength and song [is] YAH—YHWH, And He is to me for salvation.

3 Na ka utu wai koutou i runga i te koa i roto i nga puna o te whakaoranga;

And you have drawn waters with joy Out of the fountains of salvation,

4 Ka mea ano hoki i taua ra, Whakamoemititia a Ihowa, karanga atu ki tona ingoa; whakaaturia ana mahi ki roto i nga iwi; kauwhautia atu kua oti tona ingoa te whakaneke ake.

And you have said in that day, Give praise to YHWH, call on His Name. Make His acts known among the peoples. Make mention that His Name is set on high.

5 Waiata ki a Ihowa, he nui noa atu hoki ana mahi: meinga kia mohiotia tenei puta noa i te ao.

Praise YHWH, for He has done excellence, This is known in all the earth.

6 Hamama, kia nui te reo, e te wahine e noho ana i Hiona, he nui hoki te Mea Tapu o Iharaira i waenganui i a koe.

Cry aloud, and sing, O inhabitant of Zion, For the Holy One of Israel [is] great in your midst!”
