Waiata 98

2 Kua whakakitea e Ihowa tana whakaoranga, kua whakapuakina e ia tona tika ki te aroaro o nga tauiwi.

The Lord declared his saluation: his righteousnes hath he reueiled in the sight of ye nations.

3 Kua mahara ia ki tana mahi tohu, ki tona pono ki te whare o Iharaira; a kua kite nga pito katoa o te whenua i te whakaoranga a to tatou Atua.

He hath remembred his mercy and his trueth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth haue seene the saluation of our God.

4 Kia hari te hamama, e te whenua katoa, ki a Ihowa: hamama, kia hari, ae ra, himene atu.

All the earth, sing ye loude vnto the Lord: crie out and reioyce, and sing prayses.

5 Himene ki a Ihowa i runga i te hapa; i runga i te hapa, me te himene ano te reo.

Sing prayse to the Lord vpon the harpe, euen vpon the harpe with a singing voyce.

6 I runga i te tetere, i te tangi ano o te koronete: kia hari te hamama ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o te Kingi.

With shalmes and sound of trumpets sing loude before the Lord the King.

7 Kia haruru te moana me nga mea e hua ana i roto, te ao me ona tangata e noho ana i runga.

Let the sea roare, and all that therein is, the world, and they that dwell therein.

8 Kia papaki nga ringa o nga roma, kia hari tahi nga pukepuke.

Let the floods clap their hands, and let the mountaines reioyce together

9 Ki te aroaro o Ihowa: e haere mai ana hoki 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 te pono.

Before the Lord: for he is come to iudge the earth: with righteousnesse shall hee iudge the world, and the people with equitie.
