< Waiata 94 >
1 E Ihowa, e te Atua, e te Kairapu utu; e te Atua, e te Kairapu utu, tiaho mai.
ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻoku ʻaʻau ʻae totongi; ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoku ʻaʻau ʻae totongi: ke ke ulo mai.
2 E ara, e te Kaiwhakawa o te whenua: hoatu te utu e rite ana ki te hunga whakakake.
Ke ke hiki hake koe, ʻa koe ko e fakamaau ʻo māmani; ʻange ʻae totongi ki he laukau.
3 Kia pehea te roa, e Ihowa, o te hunga kino nei, kia pehea te roa o te hunga kino e whakamanamana ana?
ʻE Sihova, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa ʻoe fielahi ʻae angahala, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa ʻoe polepole ʻae angahala?
4 Kei te korero whakatu ratou, kei te korero whakahi: kei te korero whakapehapeha ki a ratou nga kaimahi katoa i te kino.
ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa ʻo ʻenau fakahā mo lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa faingataʻa? Pea vikiviki ai ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoku fai kovi?
5 Mongamonga noa tau iwi i a ratou, e Ihowa: e tukinotia ana e ratou tou kainga tupu.
ʻE Sihova, ʻoku nau fesiʻi ʻo lailaiki ho kakai, mo fakamamahiʻi ho tofiʻa.
6 E patua ana e ratou te pouaru, te manene: e kohuru ana i te pani.
ʻOku nau tāmateʻi ʻae muli mo e fefine kuo mate hono husepāniti, pea fakapoongi ʻae tamai mate.
7 A e mea ana, E kore a Ihowa e kite; e kore e maharatia e te Atua o Hakopa.
Ka ʻoku nau pehē, “ʻE ʻikai ʻafioʻi ʻe Sihova, ʻe ʻikai tokanga ki ai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻo Sēkope.”
8 Kia matau, e nga poauau o te iwi: a hea ano koutou whai mahara ai, e nga kuware?
Mou ʻilo ʻekimoutolu ʻoku anga fakamanu ʻi he kakai: pea ko kimoutolu ʻae kau vale, te mou poto ʻafē?
9 Ko te kaiwhakato o te taringa, e kore ranei ia e rongo? Ko te kaihanga o te kanohi, e kore ianei ia e kite?
Ko ia naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae telinga, ʻikai te ne fanongo? Ko ia naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae mata, ʻikai te ne ʻafioʻi?
10 Ko te kaipapaki o nga iwi e kore ranei ia e papaki, ara ko te kaiwhakaako nei i te tangata kia mohio?
Ko ia ʻoku ne tautea ʻae hiteni, ʻikai te ne tautea? Ko ia ʻoku ne akonakiʻi ʻae tangata ke poto, ʻikai te ne ʻiloʻi?
11 E matau ana a Ihowa ki nga whakaaro o te tangata, he mea teka noa.
ʻOku ʻiloʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi mahalo ʻae tangata, ʻoku nau vaʻinga pē.
12 Ka hari te tangata e pakia ana e koe, e Ihowa: e whakaakona ana i roto i tau ture;
ʻE Sihova, ʻoku monūʻia ʻae tangata ʻoku ke tautea, mo ke ako kiate ia ʻaki hoʻo fono;
13 Kia marie ai tona ngakau i a koe i nga ra o te he, a keria noatia iho te poka mo te tangata kino.
Koeʻuhi te ke foaki kiate ia ʻae mālōlō mei he ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe mamahi, kaeʻoua ke keli ʻae luo ki he kau angahala.
14 E kore hoki a Ihowa e panga i tana iwi, e kore ano e whakarere i tona kainga tupu.
Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai liʻaki ʻe Sihova hono kakai, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne fakatukutukuʻi hono tofiʻa.
15 Engari e hoki te whakawa ki te tika: a e arumia e nga tangata ngakau tika katoa.
Ka ʻe foki ʻae fakamaau ki he māʻoniʻoni: pea ʻe angimui ki ai ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku angatonu ʻi loto.
16 Ko wai toku hei whakatika ake ki te hunga kino? Ko wai toku hei tu ake ki nga kaimahi i te hara?
Ko hai ʻe tuʻu hake maʻaku ʻo taʻofi ʻae kau fai kovi? Pe ko hai ʻe tuʻu hake maʻaku ʻo taʻofi ʻakinautolu ʻoku ngāue ʻi he angahala?
17 Mehemea kaua a Ihowa hei awhina moku, penei kua noho kupukore noa atu toku wairua.
Ka ne ʻikai tokoni au ʻe Sihova, pehē, kuo vave ʻae nofo ʻa hoku laumālie ʻi he fakalongo pē.
18 I taku meatanga, Ka paheke toku waewae; na tau mahi tohu, e Ihowa, ahau i tautoko ake.
ʻI heʻeku pehē, “ʻOku hekea hoku vaʻe;” ko hoʻo ʻaloʻofa, ʻE Sihova, naʻe poupou hake au.
19 I oku whakaaronga maha i roto i toku ngakau ko au whakamarie toku oranga ngakau.
ʻI hono lahi ʻo ʻeku ngaahi mahalo ʻiate au, ʻoku fakafiefiaʻi au ʻi hoʻo ngaahi meʻa fakafiemālie.
20 Tera ranei e whakahoa ki a koe te torona o te kino, e whakatakoto nei i te mahi nanakia hei ture?
ʻE feohi koā mo koe ʻae nofoʻa ʻoe angahala, ʻaia ʻoku fakatupu ʻae pauʻu ʻaki ʻae fono?
21 Kei te whakahuihui ratou ki te poke i te wairua o te tangata tika, e mea ana kia heke te toto harakore.
ʻOku nau fakataha ʻo angatuʻu ki he laumālie ʻoe angatonu, mo fakahalaia ʻae toto tonuhia.
22 Ko Ihowa ia toku pa teko: ko toku Atua hei kohatu piringa moku.
Ka ko hoku ungakiʻi ʻa Sihova pea ko hoku ʻOtua ko e maka ia ʻo hoku hūfanga.
23 A nana i whakahoki to ratou kino ki runga ki a ratou, a tera ia e whakangaro i a ratou i roto i o ratou kino: ma Ihowa, ma to tatou Atua ratou e whakangaro.
Pea ʻe ʻomi ʻe ia kiate kinautolu ʻa ʻenau hia, pea te ne fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻi heʻenau angahala; ʻio, ko Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua te ne fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu.
