Maori (Paipera Tapu 2012)

← Chapter 2 Jump to: Chapter 4 →

1Nā, e haere tahi atu ana a Pita rāua ko Hoani ki te temepara i te hāora īnoi, i te iwa o ngā hāora.

2Nā, ka kawea mai tētahi tangata, he kopa nō te kōpū mai anō o tōna whaea, he mea whakatakoto i ngā rā katoa ki te kūwaha o te temepara i huaina nei ko Ātaahua, ki te tono mea māna i te hunga e tomo ana ki te temepara.

3Nō tōna kitenga i a Pita rāua ko Hoani meāke tomo ki te temepara, ka tono ia i tētahi mea māna.

4Nā, ka whakamau atu ngā kanohi o Pita rāua ko Hoani ki a ia, ka mea, “Titiro mai ki a māua.”

5Ka whakarongo ia ki a rāua, hua noa e riro mai tētahi mea a rāua māna.

6Anō rā ko Pita, “Ko te hiriwa me te kōura kāhore i ahau; ko te mea ia kei ahau, māku tēnā e hoatu ki a koe; i runga i te ingoa o Īhu Karaiti o Nahareta, whakatika, haere.”

7Kātahi ia ka hopu i tōna ringa matau ka whakaara ake i a ia. I reira tonu kua whai kaha ōna waewae me ngā pona.

8Ā, ko tōna mawhititanga ake, ka tū, ka tīmata te haere, tomo tahi ana me rāua ki te temepara, e haere ana, tūpeke ana, e whakamoemiti ana ki te Atua.

9Ā, i kite te iwi katoa i a ia e haere ana, e whakamoemiti ana ki te Atua.

10Kātahi rātou ka mōhio ki a ia, ko ia anō tērā i noho rā ki te tatau Ātaahua o te temepara, tono mea ai māna; nā, nui atu tō rātou mīharo me te ihiihi ki taua mea i pā ki a ia.

11I a ia e pupuri ana ki a Pita rāua ko Hoani, ka oma atu te iwi katoa ki a rātou i te whakamahau i huaina nei ko tā Horomona, nui rawa te whakamīharo.

12Ā, i te kitenga o Pita, ka whai kupu atu ia ki te iwi, “E ngā tāngata o Īharaira, he aha tā koutou e mīharo nei ki tēnei tangata? He aha hoki koutou ka whakamau ai te titiro ki a māua, me te mea he mana nō māua ake he ngākau karakia rānei i meatia ai ia kia haere?

13Nā te Atua o Āperahama, o Īhaka, o Hākopa, nā te Atua o ō tātou mātua, i whakakorōria tāna Tama a Īhu; ko tā koutou i tuku nā, i whakakāhore nā i te aroaro o Pirato, kua oti rā i a ia kia tukua ia.

14Otirā, whakakāhoretia ana e koutou te Mea Tapu, te Mea Tika, tonoa ana ko te tangata kōhuru kia hōmai ki a koutou.

15Patua ana hoki e koutou te Take o te Ora; kua whakaarahia nei ia e te Atua i te hunga mate, ko mātou nei ōna kaiwhakaatu.

16Ā, nā te whakapono ki tōna ingoa i meinga ai e tōna ingoa tēnei tangata kia kaha, e kite nei, e mātau nei koutou; āe rā, ko te whakapono ki a ia te mea nāna i hoatu tēnei ora nui ki tēnei i te aroaro o koutou katoa.

17“Nā, e ōku tēina, e mahara ana ahau nā te kūware tēnā mahi a koutou, pērā i tā ō koutou rangatira.

18Engari, ko ngā mea a te Atua i whakakitea i mua e te māngai o ngā poropiti katoa, mō tāna Karaiti kia whakamamaetia, kua rite ēnei i a ia.

19Nō reira, rīpenetā, ā, tahuri mai anō koutou, kia murua ai ō koutou hara, kia puta mai ai i te aroaro o te Ariki he wā whakahauora.

20Ā, kia tonoa mai ai e ia te Karaiti i whakaritea nei mō koutou, arā a Īhu.

21Kua takoto nei te tikanga kia noho ia ki te rangi ā taea noatia ngā wā o te whakahokinga mai o ngā mea katoa, i kōrero ai te Atua rā te māngai o āna poropiti tapu nō te tīmatanga mai anō o te ao.

22I mea rā hoki a Mohi, ‘Mā te Ariki, mā te Atua, e whakaara ake he poropiti mō koutou i roto i ō koutou tēina, he pēnei anō me ahau. Ko ia tā koutou e whakarongo ai i ngā mea katoa e mea ai ia ki a koutou.

23Ā taua wā, ko ngā wairua katoa e kore e whakarongo ki taua poropiti, ka whakamatea rawatia i roto i te iwi.’

24“Āe rā, ko ngā poropiti katoa o Hamuera iho anō, tae mai ki ō muri nei, ko te hunga katoa i kōrero, i whakaatu anō hoki rātou i ngā rā nei.

25Ko koutou aua tama a ngā poropiti, a te kawenata hoki i whakatakotoria e te Atua ki ō koutou mātua, i mea rā ia ki a Āperahama, ‘Mā tōu uri ka manaakitia ai ngā hapū katoa o te ao.’

26Mō koutou kē hoki i te tuatahi, i tāna whakaaranga ake ai i tāna Tama, i te tononga mai nei a te Atua i a ia ki a koutou hei manaaki i a koutou, hei i whakatahuri i tēnei, i tēnei o koutou i ō koutou kino.”
