Habacuque 3

Te Whakawhirinaki me te Koa i waenganui i te Raruraru

17 Ahakoa kore te piki e kōpuku,

kore ngā wāina e whai hua;

ka hē te mahi ōriwa,

kāhore hoki ngā māra e whai kai;

ko ngā hipi poto ake i roto i ngā taiepa,

kāhore hoki he kau i roto i ngā taiepa kau;

18 otiia, ka koa ahau ki a Ihowā,

ka whakamanamana ki te Atua o tōku whakaoranga.

19 Ko Ihowā, ko tōku Ariki, tōku kaha,

ka meinga e ia ōku waewae kia rite ki ō te hāta,

ka meinga anō ahau e ia kia takahi i runga i ōku wāhi tiketike.

Ki te tino kaiwaiata i runga i āku mea whakatangi.
