Hai cercato la traduzione di hei whakakapi i oku korero da Maori a Inglese

ko ta te tangata ngakaukore he papaki ringa; kua waiho hei whakakapi turanga i te aroaro o tona hoa
a man void of understanding striketh hands, and becometh surety in the presence of his friend.

i mea ano ahau kia puritia ia ki ahau, hei whakakapi mou ki te mahi ki ahau i roto i nga mekameka o te rongopai
whom i would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:

ko ahau te tuakana o te whanau mai i oku tuakana
i am the oldest of my siblings

i roto tonu i oku whakaaro, i roto tonu i toku ngakau
always in our thoughts forever in our heart

ka mawhiti te tangata tika i roto i te raru, a ka riro te tangata kino hei whakakapi mo tona turanga
the righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead.

tena ra, homai he punga ko koe tonu hei whakakapi turanga moku; ko wai hei papaki ringa ki ahau
lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who is he that will strike hands with me?

e taku tama, ki te mea ko tau hei whakakapi mo ta tou hoa, ki te mea kua papaki tou ringa mo te tangata ke
my son, if thou be surety for thy friend, if thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger,

hei utu te tangata kino mo te tangata tika; a ka haere mai te tangata kopeka hei whakakapi mo te tangata tu tika
the wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous, and the transgressor for the upright.

paruparu noa iho toku mata i te tangihanga, kei runga i oku kamo te atarangi o te mate
my face is foul with weeping, and my eyelids is the shadow of death;

kei te toitu tonu hoki toku ora i roto i ahau, a kei roto i oku pongaponga te wairua o te atua
all the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of god is in my nostrils;

whakaorangia ahau, e ihowa, i oku hoariri: ka kuhu nei ahau ki roto ki a koe
deliver me, o lord, from mine enemies: i flee unto thee to hide me.

ehara hoki oku whakaaro i o koutou whakaaro, o koutou hurarahi i oku huarahi, e ai ta ihowa
for my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the lord.

koia ahau ka mea nei kia kaua koutou e ngakaukore i oku tukinotanga mo koutou; ko to koutou kororia hoki tenei
wherefore i desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

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
the lord taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall i see my desire upon them that hate me.

moti iho ratou i ahau, mongamonga noa, te ahei te whakatika: ina, hinga ana ratou ki raro i oku waewae
and i have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise: yea, they are fallen under my feet.

na ka mea a paraka, ki a paraama, he aha tau e mea nei ki ahau? i tikina atu koe e ahau hei kanga i oku hoariri, na, kua manaakitia rawatia ratou e koe
and balak said unto balaam, what hast thou done unto me? i took thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast blessed them altogether.

i ara atu ahau ki te uaki i te tatau ki taku i aroha ai; maturuturu ana te maira i oku ringa, te maira waiwai i oku maihao ki nga puritanga o te tutaki
i rose up to open to my beloved; and my hands dropped with myrrh, and my fingers with sweet smelling myrrh, upon the handles of the lock.

ka whakaora hoki koutou i toku papa, i toku whaea, i oku tungane, i oku tuakana, me a ratou mea katoa, a ka araarai i a matou kei mate
and that ye will save alive my father, and my mother, and my brethren, and my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death.

ma korua ano e ki atu ki a amaha, ehara ianei koe i te whenua noku, i te kikokiko noku? ma te atua e mea tenei mea ki ahau me tetahi atu mea, ki te kahore koe e meinga hei rangatira ope ki toku aroaro i nga ra katoa hei whakakapi mo ioapa
and say ye to amasa, art thou not of my bone, and of my flesh? god do so to me, and more also, if thou be not captain of the host before me continually in the room of joab.

a ka karangatia e ahau he hoari hei patu mona, puta noa i oku maunga katoa, e ai ta te ariki, ta ihowa: a ko te hoari a tena tangata, a tena tangata, ka anga atu ki tona hoa, ki tona hoa
and i will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the lord god: every man's sword shall be against his brother.
