1 Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Huhana Erutu. He Mikitama, na Rawiri, hei whakaako. No tana whawhaitanga ki a Aramanaharaima raua ko Aramatopa. Na hoki ana a Ioapa, a patua ana e ia a Eroma ki te Raorao Tote, kotahi tekau ma rua mano. E te Atua, kua pa nga matou e koe, kua oti matou te whakamarara e koe, kua riri koe; tahuri mai ano ki a matou.
Nkulunkulu, ubusilahlile, wasibhidliza, wathukuthela; buyela kithi.
2 Wiri ana te whenua i a koe: kua ngatata i a koe: whakakapia ona wahi pakaru; e ru ana hoki.
Uzamazamisile umhlaba, wawuqhekeza; silisa imikenke yawo, ngoba uyazamazama.
3 He mea pakeke kua whakakitea e koe ki tau iwi, kua oti matou te whakainu e koe ki te waina e wiri ai.
Abantu bakho ubabonisile okulukhuni; usinathise iwayini lokudiyazela.
4 Kua homai e koe he kara ki te hunga e wehi ana i a koe: kia whakakitea hei mea mo te pono. (Hera)
Ubanikile labo abakwesabayo isiboniso, ukuze siphakanyiswe ngenxa yeqiniso. (Sela)
5 Hei mea e mawhiti ai au e aroha ai: ma tou matau e whakaora, whakahokia mai hoki he kupu ki ahau.
Ukuze abathandekayo bakho bakhululwe; sindisa ngesandla sakho sokunene, usiphendule.
6 Kua korero te Atua i runga i tona tapu; ka hari ahau, ka kotikoti i Hekeme, ka roherohe hoki i te raorao o Hukota.
UNkulunkulu ukhulumile ebungcweleni bakhe. Ngizathaba, ngilabe iShekema, ngilinganise isihotsha seSukothi.
7 Noku Kireara, noku ano a Manahi, ko Eparaima ano hoki te kaha o toku matenga; ko Hura taku kaiwhakatakoto ture;
Ngeyami iGileyadi, njalo ngowami uManase, loEfrayimi ungamandla ekhanda lami, uJuda ngumnikumthetho wami.
8 Ko Moapa taku oko horoi; ka maka e ahau toku hu ki runga ki Eroma: e Pirihitia, ko ahau hei whakamanamana mau.
UMowabi ungumganu wami wokugezela; phezu kukaEdoma ngizaphosela inyathela lami; mayelana lami, wena Filisti, memeza ngokunqoba.
9 Ma wai ahau e kawe ki te pa kaha? Na wai ahau i arahi ki Eroma?
Ngubani ozangisa emzini oqinileyo? Ngubani ozangiholela eEdoma?
10 He teka ranei, e te Atua, kua panga matou e koe? kahore hoki koe, e te Atua, e haere tahi me a matou taua.
Kawusilahlanga yini, Nkulunkulu; kawuphumanga, Nkulunkulu, lamabutho ethu?
11 Homai he awhina mo matou ki o matou hoariri: he teka noa hoki te awhina a te tangata.
Siphe usizo ekuhlupheni, ngoba luyize uncedo lomuntu.
12 Ma te Atua tatou ka toa ai: mana hoki e takahi ki raro o tatou hoa whawhai.
KuNkulunkulu sizakwenza ngobuqhawe, ngoba yena uzanyathelela phansi izitha zethu.
