1 Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi, ma nga tama a Koraha. He waiata Aramoto. Ko te Atua to tatou piringa, to tatou kaha; he kaiawhina e tino tata ana i nga wa o te he.
Unto the end, for the sons of Core, for the hidden. Our God is our refuge and strength: a helper in troubles, which have found us exceedingly.
2 Na reira kore ake to tatou wehi, ahakoa nekehia te whenua, ahakoa kahakina nga maunga ki waenga moana;
Therefore we will not fear, when the earth shall be troubled; and the mountains shall be removed into the heart of the sea.
3 Ahakoa rara, taupatupatu noa ona wai, ahakoa wiri nga maunga i tona huamo. (Hera)
Their waters roared and were troubled: the mountains were troubled with his strength.
4 He awa tena ko ona manga hei whakahari i te pa o te Atua, i te wahi tapu o nga tapenakara o te Runga Rawa.
The stream of the river maketh the city of God joyful: the most High hath sanctified his own tabernacle.
5 Kei waenganui ona te Atua, e kore ia e whakakorikoria: ma te Atua ia e awhina i te putanga ano o te ata.
God is in the midst thereof, it shall not be moved: God will help it in the morning early.
6 I nana nga tauiwi, i whakakorikoria nga rangatiratanga; puaki ana tona reo, rewa ana te whenua.
Nations were troubled, and kingdoms were bowed down: he uttered his voice, the earth trembled.
7 Kei a tatou a Ihowa o nga mano, ko te Atua o Hakopa to tatou piringa. (Hera)
The Lord of armies is with us: the God of Jacob is our protector.
8 Haere mai, tirohia nga mahi a Ihowa, nga whakangaromanga i whakaputaina e ia ki te whenua.
Come and behold ye the works of the Lord: what wonders he hath done upon earth,
9 E whakamutua ana e ia nga whainga a te pito ra ano o te whenua: whati ana i a ia te kopere, poro pu te tao, tahuna ake e ia te hariata ki te kapura.
Making wars to cease even to the end of the earth. He shall destroy the bow, and break the weapons: and the shield he shall burn in the fire.
10 Kia ata noho, a kia matau ko ahau te Atua; e whakanuia ahau i waenganui i nga tauiwi, e whakanuia ahau i te whenua.
Be still and see that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, and I will be exalted in the earth.
11 Kei a tatou a Ihowa o nga mano: ko te Atua o Hakopa to tatou piringa. (Hera)
The Lord of armies is with us: the God of Jacob is our protector.
