1Nā, ka tonoa a Nātana e Ihowā ki a Rāwiri; ā, ka tae atu ia ki a ia, ka mea ki a ia, “Tokorua ngā tāngata i te pā kotahi; he taonga o tētahi, he rawakore tētahi.

2He tini noa iho ngā hipi, ngā kau a te tangata taonga;

3hore rawa ia he mea a te rawakore; heoi anō he reme uha kotahi nei, he mea nohinohi nāna i hoko mai i whāngai haere; ā, i tupu tahi ake rātou me āna tamariki. I kai tāna ake taro, i inu hoki i roto i tāna ake kapu, i takoto ki tōna uma; ā, i rite tonu he tamāhine ki a ia.

4“Nā, ka tae he pahī ki te tangata taonga, ā, ka manawapā tērā ki te tango i tētahi o āna hipi, o āna kau, kia takā mā te manuhiri i haere mai ki a ia; heoi tangohia ana e ia te reme a te tangata rawakore, takā ana e ia mā te tangata i haere nei ki a ia.”

5Ko te tino muranga o te riri o Rāwiri ki taua tangata, ka mea ki a Nātana, “E ora ana a Ihowā, e tika ana kia mate te tangata nāna tēnei mahi.

6Ko te reme hoki, kia whā ana e hoatu ai hei utu; mōna i mea i tēnei mea, mōna hoki kīhai i aroha.”

7Nā, ka mea a Nātana ki a Rāwiri, “Ko taua tangata rā, ko koe. Ko te kupu tēnei a Ihowā, a te Atua o Īharaira: ‘Nāku koe i whakawahi hei kīngi mō Īharaira, nāku hoki koe i whakaora i te ringa o Haora;

8ā, hoatu ana e ahau te whare o tōu ariki ki a koe, me ngā wāhine a tōu ariki ki tōu uma; i hoatu anō e ahau te whare o Īharaira rāua ko Hūrā ki a koe; ā, mehemea i iti tēnei, kua tāpiritia atu e ahau māu ērā atu mea anō.

9He aha koe i whakahāwea ai ki te kupu a Ihowā? I mea ai i tēnei kino i tāna tirohanga? Ko Uria Hiti i patua e koe ki te hoari, ā, tangohia ana tāna wahine hei wahine māu; ko ia hoki tukitukia ana e koe ki te hoari a ngā tama a Āmona.

10Nā reira e kore te hoari e whakakorea atu āianei i roto i tōu whare ā ake ake, mōu i whakahāwea ki ahau, i tango hoki i te wahine a Uria Hiti hei wahine māu.’

11“Ko te kupu tēnei a Ihowā: ‘Nanā, ka whakaara ahau i te kino mōu i roto i tōu whare, ā, ka tango i āu wāhine i tāu tirohanga, ka hoatu ki tōu hoa, nā, ka takotoria e ia āu wāhine i te tirohanga ā te rā i runga nei.

12I meatia pukutia hoki tēnei mea e koe; ko ahau ia ka mea i tēnei mea ki mua i a Īharaira katoa, ki mua anō i te rā.’ ”

13Nā, ka mea a Rāwiri ki a Nātana, “Kua hara ahau ki a Ihowā.” Ā, ka mea a Nātana ki a Rāwiri, “Kua kauparea atu anō tōu hara e Ihowā; e kore koe e mate.

14Otirā, i te mea nā tēnei mahi āu i whai take nui ai ngā hoariri o Ihowā ki te kohukohu, he pono ka mate te tamaiti ka whānau nei ki a koe.”

15Nā, haere ana a Nātana ki tōna whare. Ā, ka pākia e Ihowā te tamaiti a Rāwiri i whānau nei i te wahine a Uria; he nui hoki te mate.

16Nā, ka īnoi a Rāwiri ki te Atua mō te tamaiti; ā, nohopuku ana a Rāwiri, haere ana ki roto, pau noa taua pō e takoto ana i te whenua.

17Nā, ka whakatika ngā kaumātua o tōna whare ki a ia, ki te whakaara i a ia i te whenua; heoi kīhai ia i pai, kīhai hoki i kai tahi i tā rātou taro.

18Nā, i te whitu o ngā rā ka mate te tamaiti. Ā, ka wehi ngā tāngata a Rāwiri ki te mea ki a ia kua mate te tamaiti; i mea hoki rātou, “Nā, i te mea e ora ana te tamaiti, i kōrero tātou ki a ia, ā, kīhai ia i whakarongo ki tō tātou reo. Nā, tērā noa ake te kino e mea ai ia ki a ia anō ki te kōrerotia e tātou ki a ia te matenga o te tamaiti.”

19Otiia i kite a Rāwiri i āna tāngata e kōwhetewhete ana ki a rātou anō, ā, ka mōhio a Rāwiri kua mate te tamaiti. Nā, ka mea a Rāwiri ki āna tāngata, “Kua mate rānei te tamaiti?” Ā, ka mea rātou, “Kua mate.”

20Kātahi a Rāwiri ka whakatika i te whenua, ka horoi i a ia, ka whakawahi i a ia, ka tango i ētahi kākahu kē mōna; ā, haere ana ki te whare o Ihowā ki te koropiko. Kātahi ka haere ia ki tōna whare. Nā, ka tonoa e ia, ā, ka whakatakotoria he taro māna, ā, kai ana ia.

21Kātahi ka mea āna tāngata ki a ia, “He aha tēnei mea i mea nei koe? I nohopuku koe, i tangi ki te tamaiti i a ia e ora ana; nō te matenga ia o te tamaiti, nā, whakatika ana koe ki te kai taro.”

22Anō rā ko ia, “I te tamaiti e ora ana anō, i nohopuku ahau, i tangi; i mea hoki, ‘Ko wai ka tohu, tērā pea a Ihowā ka aroha ki ahau, ā, ka ora te tamaiti?’

23Ko tēnei, ka mate nei ia, kia nohopuku ahau hei aha? E taea rānei ia e ahau te whakahoki mai? Ko ahau e haere ki a ia, e kore ia e hoki mai ki ahau.”

24Nā, ka whakamārie a Rāwiri i tāna wahine, i a Patehēpa, ā, haere ana ki roto, ki a ia, ā, takoto tahi ana rāua; ā, ka whānau anō ia, he tama, huaina iho tōna ingoa ko Horomona; i arohaina ia e Ihowā;

25i tono hoki ia nā te ringa o Nātana poropiti, ā, nāna i hua tōna ingoa ko Teriria; he whakaaro hoki ki a Ihowā.

26Ā, i whawhai anō a Ioapa ki Rapa o ngā tamariki a Āmona; ā, horo ana i a ia te pā kīngi.

27Nā, ka tono tāngata a Ioapa ki a Rāwiri, ka mea, “Kua tauria a Rapa e ahau, āe rā, kua horo i ahau te pā o ngā wai.

28Nā, tēnā, huihuia te nuinga o te iwi ki te whakapae i te pā, kia riro ai i a koe; kei riro mai te pā i ahau, ā, nōku te ingoa e huaina ki reira.”

29Nā, huihuia ana te iwi katoa e Rāwiri, ā, haere ana ki Rapa; nā, tauria ana a reira e ia, ā, riro ana i a ia.

30Tangohia ana e ia te karauna o tō rātou kīngi i tōna mātenga, ko tōna taimaha kotahi taranata kōura, ā, i roto ngā kōhatu utu nui; ā, pōtaea iho ki te mātenga o Rāwiri. Ā, i whakaputaina, e ia ngā taonga o te pā, tōna tini.

31Nā, ko ngā tāngata i roto, whakaputaina ana e ia ki waho, ā, whakamahia ana ki ngā kani, ki ngā harou rino, ki ngā toki rino; i meinga anō rātou kia tīkā nā roto i te tahunga pereki. Ko tāna hoki tēnei i mea ai ki ngā pā katoa o ngā tamariki a Āmona. Nā, hoki ana a Rāwiri me te iwi katoa ki Hiruhārama.
