Psalm 116-118
Maori Bible
116 E aroha ana ahau ki a Ihowa: mona i whakarongo ki toku reo, ki aku inoi.
2 I tahuri mai tona taringa ki ahau: mo reira ka karanga ahau ki a ia i ahau e ora ana.
3 I karapotia ahau e nga whakawiringa a te mate: mau pu ahau i nga mamae o te reinga, i kite ahau i te pawera, i te pouri.
4 Na ko taku karangatanga ki te ingoa o Ihowa; Tena ra, e Ihowa, whakaorangia toku wairua.
5 He atawhai a Ihowa, he tika: ae, he aroha to tatou Atua.
6 E tiakina ana e Ihowa te hunga kuware: i whakaititia ahau, a nana ahau i whakaora.
7 E hoki, e toku wairua, ki tou okiokinga; kua atawhaitia hoki koe e Ihowa.
8 Nau hoki toku wairua i whakaora kei mate, oku kanohi kei whai roimata, oku waewae kei paheke.
9 Tera ahau e haereere i te aroaro o Ihowa i te whenua o te ora.
10 I whakapono ahau, koia ahau i korero ai: he nui toku whakawhiunga.
11 I mea ahau i toku ohoreretanga, He teka kau nga tangata katoa.
12 He aha taku e whakahoki ai ki a Ihowa mo ana atawhainga katoa i ahau?
13 Ka mau ahau ki te kapu o te whakaoranga, ka karanga ki te ingoa o Ihowa.
14 Ka whakamana e ahau aku kupu taurangi ki a Ihowa i te aroaro o tana iwi katoa.
15 He mea utu nui ki ta Ihowa titiro te matenga o tana hunga tapu.
16 E Ihowa, he pono ko ahau tau pononga; ko ahau tau pononga, ko te tama a tau pononga wahine; nau i wewete oku here.
17 Ka tukua e ahau te patunga tapu, ara te whakawhetai: ka karanga ki te ingoa o Ihowa.
18 Ka whakamana e ahau aku kupu taurangi ki a Ihowa, ae, ki te aroaro o tana iwi katoa.
19 Ki nga marae o te whare o Ihowa, ki waenganui ou, e Hiruharama. Whakamoemititia a Ihowa.
117 Whakamoemititia a Ihowa, e nga tauiwi katoa: whakamoemititia ia, e nga iwi katoa.
2 He nui hoki tana mahi tohu ki a tatou: e mau ana hoki te pono o Ihowa ake ake. Whakamoemititia a Ihowa.
118 Whakawhetai ki a Ihowa; he pai hoki ia, he pumau tonu hoki tana mahi tohu.
2 Kia mea a Iharaira, He pumau tonu tana mahi tohu.
3 Kia mea te whare o Arona, He pumau tonu tana mahi tohu.
4 Kia mea te hunga e wehi ana i a Ihowa, He pumau tonu tana mahi tohu.
5 I karanga ahau ki a Ihowa i roto i te pouri: i whakahoki kupu mai a Ihowa ki ahau, i whakatu hoki i ahau ki te wahi whanui.
6 Kei ahau a Ihowa; e kore ahau e wehi: he aha ta te tangata e mea ai ki ahau?
7 Kei ahau a Ihowa kei roto i oku kaiawhina: no reira tera ahau e kite i taku i hiahia ai ki te hunga e kino ana ki ahau.
8 Ko te whakawhirinaki ki a Ihowa, pai atu i te whakaaro ki te tangata.
9 Ko te whakawhirinaki ki a Ihowa, pai atu i te okioki ki nga rangatira.
10 I karapotia ahau e nga iwi katoa: ka ngaro ratou i ahau i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa.
11 I karapotia ahau e ratou: ae, i karapotia ahau e ratou: ka ngaro ratou i ahau i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa.
12 Me te mea he pi ratou e mui ana ki ahau; kua pirau ratou ano he ahi tataramoa: i ngaro hoki ratou i ahau i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa.
13 Kaha pu tau turaki i ahau, kia hinga ai ahau: na Ihowa ia ahau i awhina mai.
14 Ko Ihowa toku kaha, taku himene, ko ia ano toku whakaoranga.
15 He reo hari, he reo whakaoranga, kei nga tapenakara o te hunga tika: he maia nga mahi a te ringa matau o Ihowa.
16 Kua whakanuia te matau o Ihowa: he maia nga mahi a te ringa matau o Ihowa.
17 E kore ahau e mate, engari tera ahau e ora, hei whakapuaki i nga mahi a Ihowa.
18 I pakia rawatia ahau e Ihowa: otiia kihai ahau i tukua e ia kia mate.
19 Whakatuwheratia ki ahau nga kuwaha o te tika: ka tomo ahau ki roto, ka whakamoemiti ki a Ihowa.
20 Ko te kuwaha tenei o Ihowa: ka tomo te hunga tika ki reira.
21 Ka whakamoemiti ahau ki a koe, mou i whakahoki kupu mai ki ahau, kua meinga hoki ko koe hei whakaora moku.
22 Ko te kohatu i kapea e nga kaihanga, kua meinga hei upoko mo te kokonga.
23 Na Ihowa tenei: he mea miharo ki o tatou kanohi.
24 Ko te ra tenei i hanga e Ihowa kia whakamanamana, kia koa tatou i reira.
25 Whakaorangia ra aianei, e Ihowa: tena ra, e Ihowa, homai he ngahuru ki a matou.
26 Kia whakapaingia te tangata e haere mai ana i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa: kua whakapaingia koutou e matou i roto i te whare o Ihowa.
27 Ko Ihowa te Atua, a nana i homai te marama ki a tatou: herea te patunga tapu ki nga aho, ki nga haona ra ano o te aata.
28 Ko koe toku Atua, maku koe e whakamoemiti: toku Atua, maku koe e whakanui.
29 Whakawhetai ki a Ihowa; he pai hoki ia: he pumau tonu tana mahi tohu.
1 Corinthians 7:1-19
Maori Bible
7 Na mo nga mea i tuhituhi mai na koutou: he mea pai ano mo te tangata kia kaua e pa ki te wahine.
2 Otiia, he whakaaro kei moepuku, kia rite ma te tane he wahine mana ake, a ma te wahine he tane mana ake.
3 Kia puta te whakaaro pai o te tane ki te wahine, hei te mea e tika ana: me to te wahine hoki ki te tane.
4 Ehara te wahine i te rangatira o tona tinana ake, engari te tane: me te tane ano, ehara ia i te rangatira o tona ake tinana, engari te wahine.
5 Kaua e kaiponu tetahi i tetahi; haunga ia ki te ata whakaritea mo tetahi wa, kia atea ai korua ki te nohopuku, ki te inoi, ka hoki ai ano ki a korua, kei ai to korua hiahia taikaha hei whakawai ma Hatana i a korua.
6 Otira ko tenei korero aku he mea whakaae noa, ehara i te tikanga whakatakoto.
7 Ko taku ia i pai ai, kia penei nga tangata katoa i ahau nei. Otira e homai ana e te Atua te ahua mona ki ia tangata, ki ia tangata, ki tetahi ko tenei, ki tetahi ko tera.
8 Ko taku kupu ia tenei ki nga takakau, ki nga wahine pouaru, He mea pai mo ratou kia kati tonu me ahau nei.
9 Otira ki te kore e taea e raua te whakamanawanui, me marena: he pai ake hoki te marena i te kaka o te ngakau.
10 Ko taku whakahau ia tenei ki te hunga whai hoa, ehara i ahau, engari ko te Ariki, Aua te wahine e mawehe ke i tana tane:
11 Engari, ki te mawehe ia, me noho hoakore, me hohou ranei te rongo ki tana tane: kaua hoki te tane e whakarere i tana wahine.
12 Ki era atu ia ko taku kupu tenei, ehara i te Ariki: Ki te mea he wahine kore whakapono ta tetahi o nga teina, a ka whakaae taua wahine kia noho tahi raua, kaua ia e whakarerea e ia.
13 A ko te wahine, he tane kore whakapono tana, a ka whakaae kia noho tahi raua, kaua ia e whakarere i tana tane.
14 No te mea e whakatapua ana te tane whakaponokore e te wahine, e whakatapua ana hoki te wahine whakaponokore e te tane: me he kahore, kua poke a korua tamariki, tena ko tenei he tapu ratou.
15 Ki te mawehe ke ia te whakaponokore, mana e mawehe ke. E kore tetahi teina, tuahine ranei, e mau te here e nga mea pena: otira kua karangatia tatou e te Atua ki te rangimarie.
16 Ma te aha koe e mohio ai, e tai, ka ora ranei i a koe tau tane? a koe ranei, e te tane, ma te aha ka mohio ai, ka ora i a koe tau wahine?
17 Heoi anake, kia rite ki ta te Atua tuwahanga ki tena, ki tena, ki tana karangatanga hoki ki tena, ki tena, kia pera tana haere. Na ko taku whakatakoto tena i roto i nga hahi katoa.
18 He mea kokoti tetahi i tona karangatanga? kaua e whakakahoretia tona kotinga. He mea kokotikore tetahi i tona karangatanga? kaua a e kotia.
19 He mea kore noa iho te kotinga, he mea kore noa iho ano te kotingakore, engari ia te pupuri i a te Atua ture.
