| Chapter 109 |
1 |
¶ Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He himene na Rawiri. E te Atua, e whakamoemiti nei ahau, kei wahangu koe: --
|
2 |
Kua puaki hoki te mangai o te tangata kino me te mangai o te tangata tinihanga, ki te he moku: he teka o ratou arero, e korero nei moku. --
|
3 |
I karapotia hoki ahau e ratou ki nga kupu mauahara, a i whawhai takekore ki ahau. --
|
4 |
Mo toku aroha he riri ta ratou whakautu: ko ahau ia, he inoi taku. --
|
5 |
E homai ana e ratou ki ahau he kino mo te pai, he mauahara mo toku aroha. --
|
6 |
¶ Meinga he tangata kino hei rangatira mona; kia tu he hoariri ki tona ringa matau. --
|
7 |
Kia tau te he ki a ia, ina whakawakia: kia waiho ano tana inoi hei hara. --
|
8 |
Kia torutoru ona ra; kia riro tana mahi tirotiro i tetahi atu. --
|
9 |
Kia pania ana tamariki, kia pouarutia hoki tana wahine. --
|
10 |
Kia kopikopiko noa ana tamariki, pinono ai: kia rapu kai hoki ma ratou i o ratou wahi mokemoke. --
|
11 |
Kia haoa e te kaituku moni ana mea katoa; kia pahuatia hoki e nga tangata iwi ke ana mauiuitanga. --
|
12 |
Kaua tetahi hei hoatu noa i te aroha ki a ia: kaua hoki tetahi hei atawhai i ana pani. --
|
13 |
Kia hatepea putia ona uri: a i to muri whakatupuranga kia horoia rawatia atu o ratou ingoa. --
|
14 |
Kia maharatia e Ihowa te kino o ona matua: kei murua hoki te hara o tona whaea. --
|
15 |
Kia mau tonu ki te aroaro o Ihowa: kia hatepea atu ai e ia te maharatanga ki a ratou i runga i te whenua. --
|
16 |
Mona kihai i mahara ki te mahi tohu: heoi tukino ana ia i te ware, i te rawakore, i te hunga ngakau maru, kia patua ai ratou. --
|
17 |
Ae ra, i pai ia ki te kanga, a kua tae mai ki a ia: kihai ia i aro ki te manaaki, heoi kua mamao tera i a ia. --
|
18 |
I kakahu ia i te kanga ki a ia, ano ko tona kakahu: na kua tae tera ki roto ki a ia ano he wai, me he hinu hoki ki roto ki ona wheua. --
|
19 |
Waiho ki a ia hei kakahu hipoki mona, hei whitiki hoki e whitikiria tonutia ai ia. --
|
20 |
Na hei utu tena ma Ihowa ki oku hoariri, ki te hunga hoki e korero kino nei ki toku wairua. --
|
21 |
¶ Kia puta tau mahi moku, e te Atua, e te Ariki, he whakaaro ki tou ingoa: na te mea he pai tau mahi tohu, whakaorangia ahau, --
|
22 |
He ware hoki ahau, he rawakore, kua mamae hoki toku ngakau i roto i ahau. --
|
23 |
Ka riro ahau me te atarangi e whakawairua kau ana: e peipeia ana ahau me he mawhitiwhiti. --
|
24 |
Hurorirori kau oku turi i te nohopuku; a e kohia ana te ngako o oku kikokiko. --
|
25 |
Kua waiho ahau hei tawainga ma ratou: ka kite ratou i ahau, ka ruru o ratou matenga. --
|
26 |
Awhinatia ahau, e Ihowa, e toku Atua: kia rite ki tou aroha tau whakaora i ahau. --
|
27 |
Kia matau ai ratou ko tou ringa itene: a nau tenei, e Ihowa, i mea. --
|
28 |
Ma ratou e kanga, mau ia e manaaki: kia whakama ratou ina whakatika; ko tau pononga ia kia hari. --
|
29 |
Kia whakakakahuria oku hoariri ki te whakama, a ko to ratou numinumi hei koroka hipoki mo ratou. --
|
30 |
Ka tino whakawhetai toku mangai ki a Ihowa, ae ra, ka whakamoemiti ahau ki a ia i waenganui o te mano. --
|
31 |
E tu hoki ia ki te ringa matau o te rawakore, hei whakaora i a ia i te hunga e whakahe ana i tona wairua. --
