1 K i te tino kaiwhakatangi. Huhana Erutu. He Mikitama, na Rawiri, hei whakaako. No tana whawhaitanga ki a Aramanaharaima raua ko Aramatopa. Na hoki ana a Ioapa, a patua ana e ia a Eroma ki te Raorao Tote, kotahi tekau ma rua mano. E te Atua, kua pa nga matou e koe, kua oti matou te whakamarara e koe, kua riri koe; tahuri mai ano ki a matou.

¶ O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us; thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.

2 W iri ana te whenua i a koe: kua ngatata i a koe: whakakapia ona wahi pakaru; e ru ana hoki.

Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it; heal its breaches, for it shakes.

3 H e mea pakeke kua whakakitea e koe ki tau iwi, kua oti matou te whakainu e koe ki te waina e wiri ai.

Thou hast showed thy people hard things; thou hast made us to drink the wine of shaking.

4 K ua homai e koe he kara ki te hunga e wehi ana i a koe: kia whakakitea hei mea mo te pono. (Hera.

Thou hast given a banner to those that fear thee that they raise up for the truth. Selah.

5 H ei mea e mawhiti ai au e aroha ai: ma tou matau e whakaora, whakahokia mai hoki he kupu ki ahau.

That thy beloved may be delivered, save with thy right hand and hear me.

6 K ua korero te Atua i runga i tona tapu; ka hari ahau, ka kotikoti i Hekeme, ka roherohe hoki i te raorao o Hukota.

¶ God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem and mete out the valley of Succoth.

7 N oku Kireara, noku ano a Manahi, ko Eparaima ano hoki te kaha o toku matenga; ko Hura taku kaiwhakatakoto ture;

Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of my head; Judah is my lawgiver;

8 K o Moapa taku oko horoi; ka maka e ahau toku hu ki runga ki Eroma: e Pirihitia, ko ahau hei whakamanamana mau.

Moab is my washpot; over Edom I will cast out my shoe; Philistia, triumph thou because of me.

9 M a wai ahau e kawe ki te pa kaha? Na wai ahau i arahi ki Eroma?

Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me into Edom?

10 H e teka ranei, e te Atua, kua panga matou e koe? kahore hoki koe, e te Atua, e haere tahi me a matou taua.

Surely thou, O God, who had cast us off; and thou, O God, who did not go out with our armies.

11 H omai he awhina mo matou ki o matou hoariri: he teka noa hoki te awhina a te tangata.

Give us help from trouble, for vain is the salvation of man.

12 M a te Atua tatou ka toa ai: mana hoki e takahi ki raro o tatou hoa whawhai.

Through God we shall do valiantly, for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
