Waiata 2
1 He aha ka nana ai nga tauiwi, ka whakaaro horihori ai nga iwi?
Ko e hā ʻoku matalili ai ʻae hiteni? Pea fakalaulauloto ʻae kakai ki he meʻa noa pē?
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,
ʻOku tuʻu hake fakataha ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani, pea fakakaukau fakataha ʻae kau pule kia Sihova mo ia kuo ne pani, ʻo pehē,
3 Kia motumotuhia e tatou a raua here, kia akiritia a raua taura i a tatou.
“Ke tau motuhi ʻena ngaahi haʻi pea liʻaki ʻena ngaahi afo ʻiate kitautolu.”
4 Ko ia kei te rangi e noho ana, ka kata ia: ka whakahi te Ariki ki a ratou.
Ko ia ʻoku nofo ʻi he ngaahi langi ʻe kata ia: ʻe manuki ʻa Sihova kiate kinautolu.
5 Na ka korero ia ki a ratou me te riri ano: ka tino weriweri hoki, ka whakahorere i a ratou,
Pea te ne toki folofola kiate kinautolu ʻi hono houhau, pea fakamamahiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi hono tuputāmaki lahi.
6 Ahakoa ra ka whakawahia e ahau taku kingi ki runga ki taku maunga tapu, ki Hiona.
Ka kuo u fakanofo ʻeku tuʻi ki Saione, ko e moʻunga ʻo ʻeku māʻoniʻoni.
7 Maku e whakapuaki te kupu, kua mea a Ihowa ki ahau, Ko koe taku tama, nonaianei koe i whakatupuria ai e ahau.
“Te u fakahā ʻae tuʻutuʻuni:” naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “Ko hoku ʻAlo koe kuo u fakatupu koe ʻi he ʻaho ni.
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.
Ke ke lea kiate au, pea te u foaki ʻae ngaahi hiteni ko ho tofiʻa, mo e ngaahi ngataʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani moʻou.
9 Ka wawahi koe i a ratou ki te whiu rino, mongamonga noa ratou i a koe, ano he oko na te kaihanga rihi.
Te ke maumauʻi ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae vaʻa ukamea; pea te ke laiki ke lailai ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e ipu ʻumea.
10 Na kia mahara ra, e nga kingi: kia akona, e nga kaiwhakawa o te whenua.
Pea ko eni, ke poto ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi tuʻi: pea maʻu ʻae akonaki ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau fakamaau ʻo māmani.
11 Mahi atu ki a Ihowa i runga i te wehi, kia hari me te wiri.
Tauhi ʻa Sihova ʻi he manavahē, pea fiefia ʻi he tetetete.
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.
ʻUma ki he ʻAlo, telia naʻa houhau ia, pea te mou ʻauha mei he hala, ʻoka tupu siʻi pe hono houhau. ʻOku monūʻia ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku falala kiate ia.
