Waiata 44
1 Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi, ma nga tama a Koraha. He Makiri. E te Atua, kua rongo o matou taringa, kua korerotia ki a matou e o matou matua, nga mahi i mahia e koe i o ratou ra, i nga ra o mua.
Ki he Takimuʻa, ko e akonaki ki he ngaahi foha ʻo Kola. ʻE ʻOtua, naʻa mau fanongo ʻaki homau telinga, pea kuo tala kiate kimautolu ʻe heʻemau ngaahi tamai, ʻae ngāue naʻa ke fai ʻi honau ngaahi ʻaho, ʻi he ngaahi kuonga ʻi muʻa.
2 Nau nga tauiwi i pana ki tou ringa, nau ratou i whakato: nau nga iwi i whiu, a whakamararatia ana ratou.
Naʻa ke kapusi kituʻa ʻae hiteni ʻaki ho nima, mo ke tō ʻakinautolu: naʻa ke tautea ʻae kakai, pea mafola atu ʻakinautolu.
3 Ehara hoki i te mea, na ta ratou hoari i whiwhi ai ratou ki te whenua, ehara to ratou takakau i te mea i ora ai ratou: engari na tou matau, na tou takakau hoki, na te marama ano o tou mata, he pai hoki nou ki a ratou.
He naʻe ʻikai te nau maʻu ʻae fonua ʻi he heletā ʻanautolu, pea naʻe ʻikai fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu ʻe honau nima: ka ko ho ʻaofi nima, mo ho nima toʻomataʻu, mo e maama ʻo ho fofonga, koeʻuhi naʻa ke ʻofa kiate kinautolu.
4 E te Atua, ko koe toku Kingi: whakahaua he whakaora mo Hakapa.
He ko koe ko hoku Tuʻi, ʻE ʻOtua ke ke fekau ʻae fakamoʻui kia Sēkope.
5 Mau ka turaki ai matou i o matou hoariri; ma tou ingoa ka takahia ai e matou te hunga e whakatika ana ki a matou.
Ko e meʻa ʻiate koe temau tulaki homau ngaahi fili: ko e meʻa ʻi ho huafa temau malamalaki ki lalo ʻakinautolu ʻoku tuʻu hake kiate kimautolu.
6 E kore hoki ahau e whakawhirinaki ki taku kopere: e kore ano taku hoari e whakaora i ahau.
Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te u falala ki heʻeku kaufana, pea ʻe ʻikai fakamoʻui au ʻe heʻeku heletā.
7 Nau hoki matou i ora ai i o matou hoariri: nau ano i whakama ai te hunga i kino ki a matou.
Ka ko koe kuo ke fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu mei homau ngaahi fili, pea kuo ke tuku ke mā ʻakinautolu naʻe fehiʻa kiate kimautolu.
8 Ko te Atua ta matou e whakamanamana ai i te roa o te ra: ka whakamoemiti ano matou ki tou ingoa ake ake. (Hera)
ʻOku mau vikiviki ʻi he ʻOtua ʻi he ʻaho kotoa, ʻo fakamālō ki ho huafa ʻo taʻengata. (Sila)
9 Otira kua panga nei matou e koe, kua meinga kia whakama: kahore hoki koe kia haere tahi me a matou taua.
Ka kuo ke liʻaki, pea tuku ke mā ʻakimautolu; pea ʻikai te ke ʻalu atu mo ʻemau ngaahi kongakau.
10 Kua meinga matou kia hoki whakamuri mai i te hoariri; kei te pahua ano i etahi ma ratou te hunga e kino ana ki a matou.
ʻOku ke pule ke mau foki mai mei he fili: pea ko kinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate kimautolu ʻoku nau maumau maʻanautolu.
11 Kua hoatu matou e koe, ano he hipi e kainga ana: kua marara ki roto ki nga tauiwi.
Kuo ke foaki ʻakimautolu ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipi kuo fili ki he kai; pea kuo ke fakahēʻi ʻakimautolu ki he hiteni.
12 E hokona ana e koe tau iwi, a hore he utu: kahore hoki koe e whiwhi rawa i te utu mo ratou.
ʻOku ke fakatau hoʻo kakai taʻehatotongi, pea ʻoku ʻikai te ke fakalahi hoʻo koloa ʻaki honau totongi.
13 E meinga ana matou e koe hei tawainga ma o matou hoa kainga; hei whakahaweatanga, hei whakakatanga mai ma te hunga i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha o matou.
ʻOku ke ngaohi ʻakimautolu ko e manukiʻanga ʻo homau ngaahi kaungāʻapi, ko e meʻa manuki mo e taukaeʻanga ʻokinautolu ʻoku nofo takatakai ʻiate kimautolu.
14 E meinga ana matou e koe hei whakatauki ma nga tauiwi; hei rurutanga matenga ma nga iwi.
ʻOku ke ngaohi ʻakimautolu ko e lumaʻanga ʻoe hiteni, ko e kalokaloʻanga ʻoe ʻulu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai.
15 Kei mua tonu i ahau toku whakama; kua taupokina ahau e te pawera o toku mata;
ʻOku ʻi hoku ʻao maʻuaipē ʻeku kovi, pea kuo ʻufiʻufi ʻaki au ʻae mā ʻo hoku mata,
16 I te reo o te kaitawai, o te kaikohukohu; i te hoariri, i te kairapu utu.
Koeʻuhi ko e leʻo ʻo ia ʻoku ne taukae mo kape; ko e meʻa ʻi he fili mo e fakafāsifasi.
17 Kua pa katoa tenei ki a matou; heoi kahore matou i wareware ki a koe, kihai ano i teka ki tau kawenata.
Kuo hoko ʻae meʻa ni kotoa pē kiate kimautolu; ka naʻe ʻikai te mau fakangalongaloʻi koe, pea naʻe ʻikai te mau fai kākā ʻi hoʻo fuakava.
18 Kahore to matou ngakau i tahuri whakamuri; kihai ano o matou hikoinga i peka ke i tau ara;
ʻOku ʻikai foki kimui homau loto, pe afe mei ho hala homau ʻaluʻanga;
19 I maru ai matou i a koe i te wahi o nga tarakona; a taupoki rawa ki te atarangi o te mate.
Kuo ke fesifesi ʻakimautolu ʻi he potu ʻoe fanga talākoni, mo ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻakimautolu ʻae ʻata ʻoe mate.
20 Mehemea kua wareware matou ki te ingoa o to matou Atua, kua totoro ranei o matou ringa ki te atua ke;
Kapau kuo mau fakangaloʻi ʻae huafa ʻo homau ʻOtua, pe mafao atu homau nima ki ha ʻotua kehe;
21 E kore ranei tenei e ata tirohia e te Atua? E matau ana hoki ia ki nga mea ngaro o te ngakau.
ʻIkai ʻe ʻeke ia ʻe he ʻOtua? He ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi ʻae ngaahi meʻa fufū ʻoe loto.
22 Mou nei hoki matou i patua ai i te ra roa nei: kiia iho matou he hipi e patua ana.
ʻIo, koeʻuhi ko koe ʻoku tāmateʻi ʻakimautolu ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē; ʻoku lau ʻakimautolu ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipi ke tāmateʻi.
23 E ara, he aha koe ka moe ai, e te Ariki? Whakatika, kaua matou e panga tonutia.
Ke ke ʻā, ko e hā ʻoku ke mohe ai, ʻE Sihova? Tuʻu hake, ʻoua naʻa ke liʻaki ʻakimautolu ʻo taʻengata.
24 He aha koe ka huna ai i tou mata? ka wareware ai ki to matou mamae, ki to matou tukinotanga?
Ko e hā ʻoku ke fufū ai ho fofonga, ʻo fakangaloʻi homau tautea mo homau taʻomia?
25 Kua piko nei hoki to matou wairua ki raro ki te puehu; piri rawa to matou kopu ki te whenua.
He kuo lolohifo homau laumālie ki he efu: kuo hiki homau kete ki he kelekele.
26 E ara, hei awhina i a matou; kia mahara ki tou aroha, a hokona matou.
Tuʻu hake ko homau tokoni, pea huhuʻi ʻakimautolu koeʻuhi ko hoʻo ʻaloʻofa.
