Karakia Timatatanga
He honore he kororia ki te Atua
He maungarongo ki te whenua
He whakaaro pai ki nga tangata katoa
Hanga e te Atua he ngakau hou
Ki rota ki tena, ki tena o matou Whakatongia to Wairua Tapu
Hei awhina, hei tohutohu
Mō tēnei rā
Ake, ake, ake
Āmine
Opening Prayer
Honour and glory to God
Peace on earth
Good will to all mankind
Lord develop a new heart
Inside all of us
Seed your Holy Spirit
Help us, guide us
For this day
Forever and ever
Amen
Karakia o te Atua
E tō mātou Matua i te rangi
Kia tapu tou Ingoa
Kia tae mai tou rangatira-tanga.
Kia meatia tau e pai ai
ki runga i te whenua,
kia rite ano ki to te rangi.
Homai ki a mātou aianei
he taro mā mātou mo tēnei ra.
Murua o mātou hara
Me mātou hoki e muru nei
i o te hunga e hara ana ki a mātou.
Aua hoki mātou e kawea kia whaka-waia;
Engari whaka-orangia mātou, i te kino:
Nou hoki te rangatira-tanga,
te kaha,
me te kororia,
Ake, ake, ake.
Āmine.
The Lord's Prayer
Our Parent in the spirit world
Sacred is your Name
Bring us Your Chiefly rule
May it happen in the way that is to You, good
may it happen on earth
In the same way as in spirit world
Give us now
The food we need this day
Strip us of our sins;
Give us back what we have lost;
So that we, the slaves of sin, may be with you again.
Do not lead us into temptation;
May we be whole, away from things evil;
Through your chiefly position, is
the power
and the glory.
Forever and ever
Amen
