Isaiah 26
Maori Bible
26 I taua ra ka waiatatia tenei waiata i te whenua o Hura. He pa kaha to tatou; ka whakaritea e ia te whakaora hei taiepa, hei pekerangi.
2 Whakatuwheratia nga kuwaha, kia tomo mai ai te iwi tika e pupuri ana i te pono.
3 Mau e pupuri i runga i te rangimarie rawa te tangata e u ana te whakaaro ki a koe; nana hoki i whakawhirinaki ki a koe.
4 Whakawhirinaki ki a Ihowa a ake ake, no te mea kei te Ariki, kei a Ihowa, he kamaka mau tonu.
5 Kua whakahokia iho hoki e ia te hunga e noho ana i runga, te pa tiketike; takoto rawa i a ia, takoto rawa ki te whenua, pa rawa ki te puehu:
6 Takahia iho e te waewae, e nga waewae o nga rawakore, e nga takahanga o nga ware.
7 Ko te ara o te tangata tika, he tika; e whakatikaia ana e koe, e te mea tika, te ara o te tangata tika.
8 Kei te ara nei ano matou o au whakaritenga e tatari ana ki a koe, e Ihowa; ko tou ingoa, ko te mahara ki a koe ta o matou wairua e minamina nei.
9 Minamina tonu ahau, toku ngakau, ki a koe i te po; ae ra, ka moata ahau, toku wairua, ki te rapu i a koe; no te mea i nga wa e puta ai au whakaritenga ki te whenua, ka akona te tika e nga tangata o te ao.
10 Atawhaitia iho te tangata kino, e kore ia e ako i te tika; i te whenua o te tika ka he tana mahi, e kore ano ia e kite i te nui o Ihowa.
11 E Ihowa, kua ara tou ringa ki runga, heoi kahore ratou e kite: otiia ka kite ratou i tou hae mo te iwi, a ka whakama; ae ra, ma te ahi e kai ou hoariri.
12 Ka whakaritea e koe, e Ihowa, he rangimarie mo matou, nau nei hoki i mahi a matou mahi katoa ma matou.
13 E Ihowa, e to matou Atua, he ariki ke ano, i tua ake i a koe, i noho hei rangatira mo matou; mau anake ia matou ka mahara ai ki tou ingoa.
14 Kua mate ratou, e kore e ora; he tupapaku ratou, e kore e ara; na kua tirohia nei ratou e koe, ngaro iho i a koe, huna katoatia ana e koe te mahara ki a ratou.
15 Kua whakaraneatia e koe te iwi, e Ihowa, kua whakaraneatia e koe te iwi: kua whai kororia koe: nau i whakanui nga rohe katoa o te whenua.
16 E Ihowa, i te rarurarutanga i haere atu ratou ki a koe, a i ringihia atu e ratou he inoi, i te mea e papaki ana koe i a ratou.
17 He pera i te wahine hapu, ka tata ia te whanau, e whakamamae ana, e aue ana i ona mamae; ko to matou rite tera i tou aroaro, e Ihowa.
18 I te hapu matou, i te mamae matou, kua whanau ta matou me te mea he hau; kihai i oti i a matou he whakaora i runga i te whenua; kihai ano hoki i hinga nga tangata o te ao.
19 Ka ora ou tangata mata; ka ara oku tinana mate, Maranga, waiata, e te hunga kei te puehu nei to koutou kainga; no te mea kei te tomairangi o nga otaota te rite o tou tomairangi; a ka maka mai nga tupapaku e te whenua.
20 Haere, e toku iwi, e tomo ki roto ki ou ruma, tutakina ou tatau i muri i a koe; e piri, he wahi iti kau nei, kia pahemo ra ano te riri.
21 No te mea tenei a Ihowa te puta nei i tona wahi ki te whiu i te he o nga tangata o te whenua; a ka whakakitea ona toto e te whenua; e kore ano e hipokina e ia i muri nei tona hunga i patua.

New International Version
A Song of Praise
26 In that day(A) this song will be sung(B) in the land of Judah:
We have a strong city;(C)
God makes salvation
its walls(D) and ramparts.(E)
2 Open the gates(F)
that the righteous(G) nation may enter,
the nation that keeps faith.
3 You will keep in perfect peace(H)
those whose minds are steadfast,
because they trust(I) in you.
4 Trust(J) in the Lord forever,(K)
for the Lord, the Lord himself, is the Rock(L) eternal.
5 He humbles those who dwell on high,
he lays the lofty city low;
he levels it to the ground(M)
and casts it down to the dust.(N)
6 Feet trample(O) it down—
the feet of the oppressed,(P)
the footsteps of the poor.(Q)
7 The path of the righteous is level;(R)
you, the Upright One,(S) make the way of the righteous smooth.(T)
8 Yes, Lord, walking in the way of your laws,[a](U)
we wait(V) for you;
your name(W) and renown
are the desire of our hearts.
9 My soul yearns for you in the night;(X)
in the morning my spirit longs(Y) for you.
When your judgments(Z) come upon the earth,
the people of the world learn righteousness.(AA)
10 But when grace is shown to the wicked,(AB)
they do not learn righteousness;
even in a land of uprightness they go on doing evil(AC)
and do not regard(AD) the majesty of the Lord.
11 Lord, your hand is lifted high,(AE)
but they do not see(AF) it.
Let them see your zeal(AG) for your people and be put to shame;(AH)
let the fire(AI) reserved for your enemies consume them.
12 Lord, you establish peace(AJ) for us;
all that we have accomplished you have done(AK) for us.
13 Lord our God, other lords(AL) besides you have ruled over us,
but your name(AM) alone do we honor.(AN)
14 They are now dead,(AO) they live no more;
their spirits(AP) do not rise.
You punished them and brought them to ruin;(AQ)
you wiped out all memory of them.(AR)
15 You have enlarged the nation, Lord;
you have enlarged the nation.(AS)
You have gained glory for yourself;
you have extended all the borders(AT) of the land.
16 Lord, they came to you in their distress;(AU)
when you disciplined(AV) them,
they could barely whisper(AW) a prayer.[b]
17 As a pregnant woman about to give birth(AX)
writhes and cries out in her pain,
so were we in your presence, Lord.
18 We were with child, we writhed in labor,
but we gave birth(AY) to wind.
We have not brought salvation(AZ) to the earth,
and the people of the world have not come to life.(BA)
19 But your dead(BB) will live, Lord;
their bodies will rise—
let those who dwell in the dust(BC)
wake up and shout for joy—
your dew(BD) is like the dew of the morning;
the earth will give birth to her dead.(BE)
20 Go, my people, enter your rooms
and shut the doors(BF) behind you;
hide(BG) yourselves for a little while
until his wrath(BH) has passed by.(BI)
21 See, the Lord is coming(BJ) out of his dwelling(BK)
to punish(BL) the people of the earth for their sins.
The earth will disclose the blood(BM) shed on it;
the earth will conceal its slain no longer.
