Waiata 96
1 Waiatatia he waiata hou ki a Ihowa: waiata, e te whenua katoa, ki a Ihowa.
Sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth.
2 Waiata ki a Ihowa, whakapaingia tona ingoa: whakakitea tana whakaoranga i tenei ra, i tenei ra.
Sing to the LORD, bless His name; proclaim His salvation day after day.
3 Whakapuakina tona kororia i waenganui i nga tauiwi, ana mahi whakamiharo i waenganui i nga iwi katoa.
Declare His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all peoples.
4 He nui hoki a Ihowa, he tika ano kia nui te whakamoemiti ki a ia: kia wehingia nuitia ai i nga atua katoa.
For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods.
5 He whakapakoko hoki nga atua katoa o nga iwi: na Ihowa ia i hanga nga rangi.
For all the gods of the nations are idols, but it is the LORD who made the heavens.
6 He honore, he kororia kei tona aroaro: kei tona wahi tapu te kaha me te ataahua.
Splendor and majesty are before Him; strength and beauty fill His sanctuary.
7 Waiho atu i a Ihowa, e nga hapu katoa o nga iwi: waiho atu i a Ihowa te kororia me te kaha.
Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
8 Waiho atu i a Ihowa te kororia e tika ana mo tona ingoa: maua mai he whakahere, haere mai hoki ki ona marae.
Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; bring an offering and enter His courts.
9 Koropiko ki a Ihowa i roto i te ataahua o te tapu: kia wehi ra ki tona aroaro, e te whenua katoa.
Worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness; tremble before Him, all the earth.
10 Mea atu i waenganui o nga tauiwi, E kingi ana a Ihowa: ka u te whenua, te taea te whakangaueue; ka tika ana whakawa mo nga iwi.
Declare among the nations: “The LORD reigns!” The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved; He will judge the peoples with equity.
11 Kia hari nga rangi, kia koa te whenua, kia haruru te moana, me nga mea e hua ana i roto.
Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice; let the sea resound, and all that fills it.
12 Kia hari te mara, me nga mea katoa i runga: ko reira ano koa ai nga rakau katoa o te ngahere;
Let the fields exult, and all that is in them. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy
13 Ki te aroaro o Ihowa, e haere mai ana hoki ia; e haere mai ana ia ki te whakawa mo te whenua: ka whakawa ia mo te ao i runga i te tika, mo nga iwi hoki i runga i tona pono.
before the LORD, for He is coming— He is coming to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in His faithfulness.
