Māori - Prayer of Manasseh

Page 1

E Ihowa, e te Atua Kaha rawa o o matou matua, o Aperahama, o Ihaka, o Hakopa, o o ratou uri tika; nana nei i hanga te rangi me te whenua, me ona mea whakapaipai katoa; nana i takai te moana ki te kupu o tau whakahau; nana i tutaki te rire, hiritia iho e koe ki tou ingoa whakamataku, kororia; e wehingia ana e nga tangata katoa, e wiri ana i tou kaha; e kore hoki e taea te nui o tou kororia te whakamanawanui, a he mea nui tau whakatuma i tou riri ki te hunga hara. ko koe hoki te Ariki nui, he nui te aroha, he puhoi ki te riri, he nui to aroha, e ripeneta ana koe ki nga kino o te tangata. Nau, e te Ariki, i runga i te nui o tou pai kua korerotia e koe te ripeneta me te murunga hara ki te hunga i hara ki a koe; Na, ko koe, e te Ariki, te Atua o te hunga tika, kihai i whakaritea e koe te ripeneta mo te tangata tika, me Aperahama, ki a Ihaka, ki a Hakopa, kihai nei i hara ki a koe; engari kua whakaritea e koe he ripeneta moku, mo te tangata hara: kua hara nei hoki ahau i te maha o te onepu o te moana. Kua tini oku pokanga ketanga, e Ihowa, kua tini oku pokanga ketanga; Kua piko ahau ki raro, ki nga here rino maha, e kore ai e ara toku mahunga, kahore hoki he tukunga iho: kua whakapataritari hoki ahau i tou riri, i mahi ahau i te kino ki tou aroaro: kihai ahau i mahi i tau i pai ai, kihai hoki i pupuri i au whakahau: kua whakatakotoria e ahau ki runga ki nga mea whakarihariha, maha tonu nga hara. Koia ahau ka piko nei i te turi o toku ngakau, ka inoi ki a koe mo te aroha noa. Kua hara ahau, e Ihowa, kua hara ahau, kua whaki ano ahau i aku he: na reira ahau i whakaiti nei ki a koe, e Ihowa, murua ahau, kaua hoki ahau e whakangaromia me oku kino. Kei riri tonu koe ki ahau, kei rongoatia he kino moku; kaua hoki ahau e whakatau he ki nga wahi o raro rawa o te whenua. Ko koe hoki te Atua, te Atua o te hunga e ripeneta ana; a ka whakakite e koe tou pai katoa ki ahau: no te mea ka whakaorangia ahau e koe, te tangata e kore nei e tau, kia rite ki te nui o tou aroha. Mo konei ka whakamoemiti ahau ki a koe ake ake i nga ra katoa e ora ai ahau: e whakamoemititia ana koe e nga mea kaha katoa o te rangi: kei a koe te kororia ake ake. Amine.
