1Nā, ka kite a Ioapa tama a Teruia e anga ana te ngākau o te kīngi ki a Apohārama.

2Ka tono tāngata a Ioapa ki Tekoa ki te tiki i tētahi wahine mōhio i reira, ā, ka mea ki a ia, “Me mea koe i a koe he wahine e tangi tūpāpaku ana, me kākahu he kākahu tauā, kaua anō e whakawahi i a koe ki te hinu; engari kia rite ki te wahine kua tangi noa ake ki te tūpāpaku.

3Ā, haere ki te kīngi, ā, ko ēnei ngā kupu māu ki a ia.” Heoi, hoatu ana e Ioapa ngā kupu ki tōna māngai.

4Nā, kōrerotia ana e te wahine o Tekoa ki te kīngi, me te tāpapa anō ki te whenua, me te piko anō, i mea hoki, “Whakaorangia, e te kīngi.”

5Nā, ka mea te kīngi ki a ia, “He aha tōu mate?” Ā, ka kī tērā, “He wahine pouaru nei ahau, kua mate hoki tāku tahu.

6Nā, tokorua ngā tama a tāu pononga, heoi whawhai ana rāua ki a rāua i te pārae, ā, kāhore he kaiwawao mō rāua. Nā, patua iho tētahi e tētahi, ā, mate iho.

7Nā, ka whakatika ngā whanaunga katoa ki tāu pononga, e mea ana, ‘Hōmai te kaipatu i tōna teina kia whakamatea hei utu mō te matenga o tōna teina, i patua nei e ia, ā, ka hunā e mātou te tangata mōna te kāinga.’ Nā, ka keto i a rātou tāku ngārahu i te toe, ā, kāhore noa iho e mahue he ingoa mō tāku tahu, he toenga rānei i te mata o te whenua.”

8Nā, ka mea te kīngi ki te wahine, “Haere ki tōu whare, ā, māku ngā tikanga mō tāu mea.”

9Nā, ka mea taua wahine o Tekoa ki te kīngi, “Hei runga i ahau te kino, e tōku ariki, e te kīngi, hei runga anō hoki i te whare o tōku pāpā; kia harakore ia te kīngi me tōna torōna.”

10Nā, ka mea te kīngi, “Ki te kōrero tētahi ki a koe, kawea mai ia ki ahau, ā, e kore ia e pā ki a koe i muri iho.”

11Kātahi ia ka mea, “Kia mahara rā te kīngi ki a Ihowā, ki tōu Atua, kia kaua te kaitakitaki toto e whakangaro ā mua ake, kei hunā tāku tama.” Nā, ka kī ia, “E ora ana a Ihowā e kore tētahi makawe o tāu tama e taka ki te whenua.”

12Nā, ka mea taua wahine, “Tēnā, kia kōrerotia e tāu pononga tētahi kupu ki tōku ariki, ki te kīngi.” Anō rā ko ia, “Kōrero.”

13Nā, ka mea taua wahine, “He aha rā koe i hē ai ki te iwi a te Atua, i whakaaro ai i tēnei mea? I te kīngi hoki e kōrero ana i tēnei mea, e rite ana ia ki te tangata kua hē, i te kīngi e kore nei e whakahoki mai i tāna i peia atu rā.

14Mō te mate nei hoki tātou, ā, ka rite ki te wai i maringi ki te whenua, kāhore nei e kohikohia ake. Nā, kāhore te Atua e tango atu ana i te ora, engari e whakaaro ana i ngā whakaaro e kore ai e peia rawatia atu i a ia te mea i peia.

15“Koia ahau i haere mai ai ki te kōrero i tēnei mea ki te kīngi, ki tōku ariki, he wehi nōku i tā te iwi; koia tāu pononga i mea ai, ‘Me kōrero ahau ki te kīngi; tērā pea te kīngi e mea i tā tāna pononga e kōrero ai.

16Tērā hoki te kīngi e rongo, e whakaora i tāna pononga i te ringa o te tangata e hunā ai māua tahi ko tāku tama i tō te Atua wāhi tupu.’

17“Koia tāu pononga i mea ai, ‘Ākuanei he whakamārie te kupu a tōku ariki, a te kīngi; e rite ana hoki tōku ariki, te kīngi ki te anahera a te Atua, hei whakarongo ki te pai, ki te kino; hei hoa anō mōu a Ihowā, te Atua.’ ”

18Nā, ka whakahoki te kīngi, ka mea ki te wahine, “Nā, kaua e hunā ki ahau te kupu e uia e ahau ki a koe.” Nā, ka mea te wahine, “Tēnā, kia kōrero tōku ariki, te kīngi.”

19Nā, ka mea te kīngi, “Kāhore ianei te ringa o Ioapa i a koe i tēnei mea katoa?” Anō rā ko te wahine, i mea ia, “E ora ana tōu wairua, e tōku ariki, e te kīngi, inā, kāhore he tahuritanga mō tētahi ki matau, ki mauī, i ngā kupu katoa i kōrero ai tōku ariki, te kīngi. Nā tāu pononga hoki, nā Ioapa, nāna ahau i whakahau, nāna hoki i hōmai ēnei kupu katoa ki te māngai o tāu pononga.

20He whakaahua kē i te tikanga o tēnei kōrero i mea ai tāu pononga, a Ioapa i tēnei mea; ā, he mōhio tōku ariki, he pērā me te mōhio o te anahera a te Atua, he mōhio ki ngā mea katoa o te whenua.”

21Nā, ka mea te kīngi ki a Ioapa, “Nā, kua meatia nei tēnei mea e ahau; tīkina, whakahokia mai taua tamaiti, a Apohārama.”

22Nā, ka tāpapa a Ioapa ki te whenua, ka piko, ka whakapai i te kīngi; i mea anō a Ioapa, “Nō tēnei rā tāu pononga i mōhio ai e manakohia ana ahau e koe, e tōku ariki, e te kīngi, nō te kīngi hoki ka whakamana i te kupu a tāna pononga.”

23Heoi, whakatika ana a Ioapa, ā, haere ana ki Kehuru, ā, kawea ana e ia a Apohārama ki Hiruhārama.

24Nā, ka mea te kīngi, “Kia tahuri atu ia ki tōna whare, kaua hoki ia e kite i tōku kanohi.” Nā, tahuri ana a Apohārama ki tōna whare, kīhai hoki i kite i te kanohi o te kīngi.

25Nā, kāhore he rite mō Apohārama, te kōrerotia tōna ātaahua i roto i a Īharaira katoa; kāhore ōna koha i te kapu o tōna waewae ā tae noa ki tōna tumuaki.

26Ā, ka kutikutia e ia tōna mātenga (i kutikutia hoki e ia i te takanga o te tau; he taimaha hoki nōna koia i kutikutia ai), nā, ka pāunatia e ia ngā makawe o tōna mātenga, e rua rau ngā hekere o tā te kīngi pāuna.

27Ā, tokotoru ngā tama i whānau mā Apohārama, kotahi hoki te kōtiro, ko tōna ingoa ko Tāmara; he wahine kanohi ātaahua anō ia.

28Nā, e rua tino tau i noho ai a Apohārama ki Hiruhārama, ā, kīhai i kitea e ia te kanohi o te kīngi.

29Nā, ka tono tangata a Apohārama ki a Ioapa, he mea kia tonoa ia ki te kīngi; heoi kīhai tērā i pai ki te haere mai ki a ia. Nā, ka tono anō ia, otiia kīhai tērā i pai ki te haere mai.

30Nā reira ka mea ia ki āna pononga, “Nanā, tata tonu ki tōku tō Ioapa wāhi whenua, he pārei anō tāna kei reira; tīkina tahuna ki te ahi.” Nā, kua tahuna e ngā tāngata a Apohārama ki te ahi.

31Nā, ka whakatika a Ioapa, ā, haere ana ki a Apohārama ki te whare, ā, ka mea ki a ia, “He aha i tahuna ai tōku wāhi e āu tāngata ki te ahi?”

32Nā, ka mea a Apohārama ki a Ioapa, “Nanā, i tono tangata ahau ki a koe, i mea: ‘Haere mai ki konei kia tonoa ai koe e ahau ki te kīngi hei mea, “Mō te aha ahau i haere mai ai i Kehuru? He pai kē mōku me i noho tonu ahau ki reira.” ’ Ko tēnei kia kite ahau i te kanohi o te kīngi; ā, ki te mea he kino tōku, me whakamate ahau e ia.”

33Heoi, haere ana a Ioapa ki te kīngi, ki te kōrero ki a ia. Nā, ka karangatia a Apohārama e ia, ā, haere ana ia ki te kīngi. Nā, piko ana ia ki a ia, ahu ana tōna mata ki te whenua i te aroaro o te kīngi; ā, kihia ana a Apohārama e te kīngi.
