Waiata 2
1 He aha ka nana ai nga tauiwi, ka whakaaro horihori ai nga iwi?
Why doe the heathen rage, and the people murmure in vaine?
2 Whakatika mai ana nga kingi o te whenua, runanga tahi ana nga ariki, ki te whawhai ki a Ihowa, ki tana tangata hoki i whakawahi ai; me te ki ano,
The Kings of the earth band themselues, and the princes are assembled together against the Lord, and against his Christ.
3 Kia motumotuhia e tatou a raua here, kia akiritia a raua taura i a tatou.
Let vs breake their bands, and cast their cordes from vs.
4 Ko ia kei te rangi e noho ana, ka kata ia: ka whakahi te Ariki ki a ratou.
But he that dwelleth in the heauen, shall laugh: the Lord shall haue them in derision.
5 Na ka korero ia ki a ratou me te riri ano: ka tino weriweri hoki, ka whakahorere i a ratou,
Then shall hee speake vnto them in his wrath, and vexe them in his sore displeasure, saying,
6 Ahakoa ra ka whakawahia e ahau taku kingi ki runga ki taku maunga tapu, ki Hiona.
Euen I haue set my King vpon Zion mine holy mountaine.
7 Maku e whakapuaki te kupu, kua mea a Ihowa ki ahau, Ko koe taku tama, nonaianei koe i whakatupuria ai e ahau.
I will declare the decree: that is, the Lord hath said vnto me, Thou art my Sonne: this day haue I begotten thee.
8 Inoi ki ahau, a ka hoatu e ahau ki a koe nga tauiwi hei kainga mou, me nga topito o te whenua hei nohoanga tupu mou.
Aske of me, and I shall giue thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the endes of the earth for thy possession.
9 Ka wawahi koe i a ratou ki te whiu rino, mongamonga noa ratou i a koe, ano he oko na te kaihanga rihi.
Thou shalt krush them with a scepter of yron, and breake them in pieces like a potters vessell.
10 Na kia mahara ra, e nga kingi: kia akona, e nga kaiwhakawa o te whenua.
Be wise nowe therefore, ye Kings: be learned ye Iudges of the earth.
11 Mahi atu ki a Ihowa i runga i te wehi, kia hari me te wiri.
Serue the Lord in feare, and reioyce in trembling.
12 Kihia te tama kei riri ia, a ka mate koutou i te ara, ka hohoro tonu hoki te mura o tona riri. Ka hari katoa te hunga e whakawhirinaki ana ki a ia.
Kisse the sonne, least he be angry, and ye perish in the way, when his wrath shall suddenly burne. blessed are all that trust in him.
