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.

Thou shalt say, therefore, in that day, I will praise thee, O Yahweh! Though thou hast been angry with me, Thine anger turneth back. And thou dost 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.

Lo, GOD is my salvation! I will trust and not dread, —For, my might and melody, is Yah, Yahweh, And he hath become mine, by salvation.

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

Therefore shall ye draw water, with rejoicing, —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 ye shall say in that day, Praise Yahweh. Call upon his Name, Make known among the peoples, his doings, —Bring to remembrance that, exalted, is his Name!

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

Praise in song Yahweh, For a splendid thing, hath he done, —Well known, is this 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.

Make shrill thy voice and sing out thou inhabitress of Zion, —That great in the midst of thee, is the Holy One of Israel.
