Psalm 81
Maori Bible
81 Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Kititi. Na Ahapa. Kia kaha te waiata ki te Atua, ki to tatou kaha: kia hari te hamama ki te Atua o Hakopa.
2 Whakahuatia te himene, maua mai ki konei te timipera, te hapa reka me te hatere.
3 Whakatangihia te tetere i te kowhititanga marama, i te kinga o te marama, i to tatou ra hakari.
4 Ko te tikanga hoki tenei ma Iharaira, he mea whakarite na te Atua o Hakopa.
5 I whakatakotoria tenei e ia ma Hohepa hei whakaaturanga, i tona haerenga puta noa i te whenua o Ihipa: i rongo ai ahau ki reira i tetahi reo, kahore ahau i matau.
6 I tangohia mai e ahau tona pokohiwi i te pikaunga: whakarerea ake e ona ringa te kete.
7 I karanga koe ki ahau i te pouritanga, a kua ora koe i ahau; i whakahoki kupu ahau ki a koe i te wahi ngaro o te whatitiri; i whakamatau i a koe ki nga wai o Meripa. (Hera.
8 Whakarongo, e taku iwi, a ka whakaatu ahau ki a koe: e Iharaira, ki te whakarongo koe ki ahau;
9 Aua tetahi atua ke i roto i a koe; kaua ano e koropiko ki te atua ke.
10 Ko Ihowa ahau, ko tou Atua, i arahina mai ai koe i te whenua o Ihipa: kia nui te kowhera o tou mangai, a maku e whakaki.
11 Otiia kihai taku iwi i pai ki te whakarongo ki toku reo: kihai ano a Iharaira i aro ki ahau.
12 Na tukua atu ana ratou e ahau ki te maro o o ratou ngakau: a haere ana ratou i runga i o ratou whakaaro.
13 Aue, te whakarongo taku iwi ki ahau! Te haere a Iharaira i aku ara!
14 Penei e kore e aha kua whati i ahau te tara o o ratou hoariri: kua tahuri ano toku ringa ki o ratou hoariri.
15 Ko te hunga e kino ana ki a Ihowa kua ngohengohe ki a ia: ko to ratou taima ia kua mau tonu.
16 Kua whangainga hoki ratou e ia ki te witi pai rawa, kua whakamakonatia ano koe e ahau ki te honi i roto i te kohatu.

Psalm 81[a]
For the director of music. According to gittith.[b] Of Asaph.
1 Sing for joy to God our strength;
shout aloud to the God of Jacob!(A)
2 Begin the music, strike the timbrel,(B)
play the melodious harp(C) and lyre.(D)
3 Sound the ram’s horn(E) at the New Moon,(F)
and when the moon is full, on the day of our festival;
4 this is a decree for Israel,
an ordinance of the God of Jacob.(G)
5 When God went out against Egypt,(H)
he established it as a statute for Joseph.
I heard an unknown voice say:(I)
6 “I removed the burden(J) from their shoulders;(K)
their hands were set free from the basket.
7 In your distress you called(L) and I rescued you,
I answered(M) you out of a thundercloud;
I tested you at the waters of Meribah.[c](N)
8 Hear me, my people,(O) and I will warn you—
if you would only listen to me, Israel!
9 You shall have no foreign god(P) among you;
you shall not worship any god other than me.
10 I am the Lord your God,
who brought you up out of Egypt.(Q)
Open(R) wide your mouth and I will fill(S) it.
11 “But my people would not listen to me;
Israel would not submit to me.(T)
12 So I gave them over(U) to their stubborn hearts
to follow their own devices.
13 “If my people would only listen to me,(V)
if Israel would only follow my ways,
14 how quickly I would subdue(W) their enemies
and turn my hand against(X) their foes!
15 Those who hate the Lord would cringe(Y) before him,
and their punishment would last forever.
16 But you would be fed with the finest of wheat;(Z)
with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”
