Waiata 96
1 Waiatatia he waiata hou ki a Ihowa: waiata, e te whenua katoa, ki a Ihowa.
A Canticle of David himself, when the house was built after the captivity. 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 and bless his name. Announce his salvation from day to day.
3 Whakapuakina tona kororia i waenganui i nga tauiwi, ana mahi whakamiharo i waenganui i nga iwi katoa.
Announce his glory among the Gentiles, his miracles 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 the Lord is great and greatly to be praised. He is terrible, beyond 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 Gentiles are demons, but the Lord made the heavens.
6 He honore, he kororia kei tona aroaro: kei tona wahi tapu te kaha me te ataahua.
Confession and beauty are in his sight. Sanctity and magnificence are in 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.
Bring to the Lord, you natives of the nations, bring to the Lord glory and honor.
8 Waiho atu i a Ihowa te kororia e tika ana mo tona ingoa: maua mai he whakahere, haere mai hoki ki ona marae.
Bring to the Lord glory for his name. Lift up sacrifices, and enter into 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.
Adore the Lord in his holy court. Let the entire earth be shaken before his face.
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.
Say among the Gentiles: The Lord has reigned. For he has even corrected the whole world, which will not be shaken. He will judge the peoples with fairness.
11 Kia hari nga rangi, kia koa te whenua, kia haruru te moana, me nga mea e hua ana i roto.
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth exult; let the sea and all its fullness be moved.
12 Kia hari te mara, me nga mea katoa i runga: ko reira ano koa ai nga rakau katoa o te ngahere;
The fields and all the things that are in them will be glad. Then all the trees of the forest will rejoice
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 face of the Lord: for he arrives. For he arrives to judge the earth. He will judge the whole world with fairness and the peoples with his truth.
