Te Kauwhautanga ki a Papurōna
1 Ko te poropititanga mō Papurōna i kitea e Ihāia tama a Āmoho.
2 Whakaarahia he kara ki runga ki te maunga horehore,
kia rahi te reo ki a rātou;
tāwhiritia atu te ringa kia haere mai ai rātou ki roto
ki ngā kūwaha o ngā rangatira.
3 Kua oti āku i whakatapu ai te whakahau,
kua karangatia anō hoki e ahau āku mārohirohi ki tōku riri,
arā āku e whakamanamana nui nei.
4 Ko te haruru o te huihui i runga i ngā maunga,
tōna rite kei tō te iwi nui!
He haruru, he ngangau nō te huihui
o ngā kīngitanga o ngā iwi!
E whakatakā ana e Ihowā o ngā mano
te ope mō te whawhai.
5 E haere mai nei rātou i tawhiti,
i te pito o te rangi,
a Ihowā me ngā patu a tōna riri,
ki te whakangaro i te whenua katoa!
6 Auē koutou, kua tata hoki te rā o Ihowā;
tērā e puta mai, ānō he whakangaromanga nā te Kaha Rawa!
7 Nō reira ka ngoikore ngā ringa katoa,
ka ngohe noa iho ngā ngākau katoa o ngā tāngata.
8 Ka ohorere anō rātou,
mau pū i te mamae, i te whakapōuri;
ko tō rātou mamae koia anō kei tō te wahine e whakawhānau ana.
Ka mīharo rātou tētahi ki tētahi,
ā, ko ō rātou mata, ānō he mura ahi.
9 Nanā, e haere mai nei te rā o Ihowā,
he kino, he riri, he whakatakariri e mura ana;
hei whakaururua i te whenua,
hei whakangaro atu hoki i reira i ōna tāngata hara.
10 Ko ngā whetū hoki o te rangi, ko ngā kāhui whetū anō hoki o reira,
kāhore e hōmai i tō rātou mārama.
Ka pōuri noa iho te rā i tōna haerenga mai,
kore ake hoki e titi te atarau.
11 Ka whiua anō e ahau te ao mō tō rātou kino,
te hunga kino hoki, mō tō rātou hē;
ka whakamutua hoki e ahau te whakapehapeha o te hunga whakakake,
ka whakahokia iho anō ki raro te whakapehapeha o te hunga kino.
12 Ka meinga anō e ahau kia nui atu te utu mō te tangata i tō te kōura pai;
āe rā, he tangata, kia nui atu i tō te kōura parakore o Ōpira.
13 Nā reira ka meinga e ahau ngā rangi kia wiri,
ka ruperupea atu anō te whenua i tōna wāhi,
he riri nō Ihowā o ngā mano,
he rā anō e mura ai tōna riri.
14 Ā, ka rite ki te anaterope e whāia ana,
ki ngā hipi kāhore nei ō rātou kaihuihui,
ka tahuri rātou ki tōna iwi, ki tōna iwi,
ka rere ki tōna whenua, ki tōna whenua.
15 Ko te hunga katoa e kitea ana, ka werohia;
ko te hunga katoa e hopukia ana, ka hinga i te hoari.
16 Ka tāia iho hoki ā rātou kōhungahunga
i tā rātou tirohanga;
ka pāhuatia ō rātou whare,
ka moea anō ā rātou wāhine.
17 Tēnei ahau te whakaoho atu nei i ngā Meri ki a rātou,
he hunga e kore nei e whakaaro ki te hiriwa;
nā, ko te kōura, e kore e matenuitia e rātou.
18 Ka tāia iho anō hoki ngā taitamariki e ā rātou kōpere, mongamonga noa;
e kore anō e tohungia ngā hua o te kōpū;
e kore ō rātou kanohi e manawapā ki ngā tamariki.
19 Ā, ko Papurōna, ko te korōria o ngā kīngitanga,
ko te mea ātaahua whakahirahira a ngā Karari,
tērā ia e rite ki tā te Atua hurihanga
i Horoma, i Komora.
20 E kore e nohoia ā ake ake,
e kore e waiho hei kāinga ā tēnā whakatupuranga, tēnā whakatupuranga;
e kore anō e whakatūria e te Ārapi tōna tēneti ki reira;
e kore anō a reira e waiho e ngā hēpara hei takotoranga mō ā rātou kāhui.
21 Engari, hei takotoranga a reira mō ngā kurī mohoao o te koraha;
ka kī hoki ō rātou whare i ngā kararehe pōuri;
ā, ka nohoia a reira e ngā otereti,
ka waiho hoki hei tūpekepeketanga mō ngā mea āhua koati.
22 Ka tangi anō hoki ngā wuruhi i roto i ō rātou whare kīngi,
me ngā kurī mohoao i roto i ō rātou whare ātaahua;
kua tata mai hoki tōna wā,
e kore anō ōna rā e roa.
