Ihaia 60
1 E ara, kia marama; kua tae mai hoki tou marama, kua whiti te kororia o Ihowa ki a koe.
Arise, shine, for your light has come, And the glory of YHWH has risen on you.
2 Tera hoki e hipokina te whenua e te pouri, nga iwi e te pouri kerekere; ka whiti ia a Ihowa ki a koe, ka kitea hoki ki a koe tona kororia.
For behold, the darkness covers the earth, And thick darkness the peoples, And YHWH rises on you, And His glory is seen on you.
3 A ka haere mai nga tauiwi ki tou marama, nga kingi ki ou hihi, ina whiti mai.
And nations have come to your light, And kings to the brightness of your rising.

6 Ka kapi koe i te kamera, he tini, i nga kamera tere o Miriana, o Epa; ka haere mai era katoa i Hepa: me te mau mai ano i te koura, i te whakakakara; ka kauwhautia ano e ratou nga whakamoemiti ki a Ihowa.
A multitude of camels covers you, Dromedaries of Midian and Ephah, All of them from Sheba come, They carry gold and frankincense, And they proclaim the praises of YHWH.
7 Ka huihuia nga hipi katoa o Kerara ki a koe, hei kaimahi mau nga hipi toa o Nepaiota; ka manakohia ratou ina eke ki runga ki taku aata, a ka whakakororiatia e ahau te whare o toku kororia.
All the flock of Kedar are gathered to you, The rams of Nebaioth serve you, They ascend My altar for acceptance, And I beautify the house of My beauty.

Who [are] these—they fly as a thick cloud, And as doves to their windows?
9 He pono ka tatari nga motu ki ahau, me nga kaipuke o Tarahihi i te tuatahi, ki te kawe mai i au tama i tawhiti: i a ratou, i ta ratou hiriwa, i ta ratou koura hoki, hei mea ki te ingoa o Ihowa, o tou Atua, ki te Mea Tapu o Iharaira, no te mea ka oti koe te whakakororia e ia.

And sons of a stranger have built your walls, And their kings serve you, For in My wrath I have struck you, And in My good pleasure I have pitied you.
11 Ka tuwhera tonu ano ou kuwaha: e kore e tutakina i te ao, i te po, kia kawea mai ai nga taonga o nga tauiwi ki a koe, kia arahina mai ai hoki o ratou kingi me ratou.
And your gates have continually opened, They are not shut by day and by night, To bring the force of nations to you, Even their kings are led.
12 Ko te iwi hoki, me te kingitanga, e kore e mahi ki a koe, ka ngaro; ina, ka moti rawa aua iwi.

The sun is no longer your light by day, And for brightness the moon does not give light to you, And YHWH has become to you A continuous light, and your God your beauty.

Your sun goes in no more, And your moon is not removed, For YHWH becomes a continuous light to you. And the days of your mourning have been completed.
21 Ko tou iwi hoki, tika katoa, ka pumau tonu ki a ratou te whenua; he peka whakato naku, he mahi na oku ringa, kia whai kororia ai ahau.
