Waiata 124

1 He waiata; he pikitanga. Na Rawiri. Me kaua a Ihowa i a tatou, he ki tenei ma Iharaira:

ᾠδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν εἰ μὴ ὅτι κύριος ἦν ἐν ἡμῖν εἰπάτω δὴ Ισραηλ

2 Me kaua a Ihowa i a tatou, i te whakatikanga mai o te tangata ki a tatou;

εἰ μὴ ὅτι κύριος ἦν ἐν ἡμῖν ἐν τῷ ἐπαναστῆναι ἀνθρώπους ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς

3 Penei kua horomia oratia tatou e ratou, i te muranga o to ratou riri ki a tatou.

ἄρα ζῶντας ἂν κατέπιον ἡμᾶς ἐν τῷ ὀργισθῆναι τὸν θυμὸν αὐτῶν ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς

4 Kua ngaro tatou i nga wai, kua taupokina o tatou wairua e te ia.

ἄρα τὸ ὕδωρ κατεπόντισεν ἡμᾶς χείμαρρον διῆλθεν ἡ ψυχὴ ἡμῶν

5 Penei kua taupokina o tatou wairua e nga wai whakakake.

ἄρα διῆλθεν ἡ ψυχὴ ἡμῶν τὸ ὕδωρ τὸ ἀνυπόστατον

6 Kia whakapaingia a Ihowa, kihai nei i tuku i a tatou hei ngaunga ma o ratou niho.

εὐλογητὸς κύριος ὃς οὐκ ἔδωκεν ἡμᾶς εἰς θήραν τοῖς ὀδοῦσιν αὐτῶν

7 Kua mawhiti o tatou wairua, me he manu i roto i te mahanga a nga kaihopu; kua motu te mahanga, a mawhiti ana tatou.

ἡ ψυχὴ ἡμῶν ὡς στρουθίον ἐρρύσθη ἐκ τῆς παγίδος τῶν θηρευόντων ἡ παγὶς συνετρίβη καὶ ἡμεῖς ἐρρύσθημεν

8 Kei te ingoa o Ihowa he awhina mo tatou, kei te kaihanga i te rangi, i te whenua.

ἡ βοήθεια ἡμῶν ἐν ὀνόματι κυρίου τοῦ ποιήσαντος τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν
