10
Ngā Tētere Hiriwa
1 I kōrero anō a Ihowā ki a Mohi, i mea: 2 “Hangā ētahi tētere hiriwa māu, kia rua; me patupatu tō rāua hanganga, ina hangā e koe; hei tāwhiunga māu i te hui, mō ngā maunutanga anō hoki o ngā puni. 3 Ā, ka whakatangihia aua mea, me huihui te whakaminenga katoa ki a koe, ki te whatitoka o te tapenākara o te whakaminenga. 4 Ā, ki te mea kotahi anō e whakatangihia, nā, me huihui ki a koe ngā ariki, ngā upoko o ngā mano o Īharaira. 5 Ka whakatangihia he whakaoho e koutou, nā, ka hāpainga ngā puni e noho ana ki te taha ki te rāwhiti. 6 Ā, i te rua o ā koutou whakatangihanga o te whakaoho, nā, ka hāpainga ngā puni e noho ana ki te taha ki te tonga. Me whakatangi he whakaoho e rātou mō ō rātou maunutanga. 7 Otiia, ka meatia kia huihuia te whakaminenga, me whakatangi e koutou, engari kaua e whakatangihia he whakaoho.
8 “Ā, mā ngā tama a Ārona, mā ngā tohunga, e whakatangi ngā tētere, ā, hei tikanga tēnā ki a koutou ake ake, i ō koutou whakatupuranga. 9 Ā, ki te anga koutou ki te whawhai i tō koutou whenua ki te hoariri e whakatupu kino ana i a koutou, nā, me whakatangi he whakaoho ki ngā tētere; ā, ka maharatia koutou e Ihowā, e tō koutou Atua, ka whakaorangia hoki i ō koutou hoariri. 10 I te rā anō e hari ai, i ō koutou rā nunui hoki, i ngā tīmatanga o ō koutou marama, me whakatangi ngā tētere ki ā koutou tahunga tinana, ki ā koutou patunga mō te pai; ā, hei whakamahara ēnā ki a koutou ki te aroaro o tō koutou Atua. Ko Ihowā ahau, ko tō koutou Atua.”
Te Haere atu i Hinai
11 Ā, i te rua tekau o te rua o ngā marama, i te rua o ngā tau, kua riro ake te kapua i runga i te tapenākara o te whakaaturanga. 12 Nā, ka hāpainga e ngā tama a Īharaira i te koraha o Hinai; ā, ka tau te kapua ki te koraha o Parana. 13 Ā, rite tonu tā rātou hāpainga mataati ki te kupu a Ihowā i kōrerotia e Mohi.
14 Ko te tuatahi i maunu, ko te kara o te puni o ngā tama a Hūrā, me ō rātou rōpū; ā, ko te kaiwhakahaere o tāna ope ko Nāhahona tama a Aminarapa. 15 Ā, ko te kaiwhakahaere o te ope o te iwi o ngā tama a Ihākara ko Netanēre tama a Tuara. 16 Ko te kaiwhakahaere hoki o te ope o te iwi o ngā tama a Hepurona ko Eriapa tama a Herona.
17 Nā, ka wāhia te tapenākara; ā, ka tūria atu e ngā tama a Kerehona, rātou ko ngā tama a Merari, ko rātou ki te amo i te tapenākara. 18 Nā, ka maunu ko te kara o te puni o Reupena, me ō rātou rōpū. Ko te kaiwhakahaere o tāna ope ko Erituru tama a Hereuru. 19 Ā, ko te kaiwhakahaere o te ope o te iwi o ngā tama a Himiona ko Herumiere tama a Turiharai. 20 Ā, ko te kaiwhakahaere o te ope o te iwi o ngā tama a Kara ko Eriāhapa tama a Teuere. 21 Nā, ka tūria atu e ngā Kohati me te amo i te nohoanga tapu; ā tae rawa atu rātou kua tū te tapenākara i ētahi.
22 Nā, ka maunu atu ko te kara o te puni o ngā tama a Ēparaima, me ō rātou rōpū; ā, ko te kaiwhakahaere o tāna ope ko Erihama tama a Amihuru. 23 Ā, ko te kaiwhakahaere o te ope o te iwi o ngā tama a Mānahi ko Kamariere tama a Peraturu. 24 Ā, ko te kaiwhakahaere o te ope o te iwi o ngā tama a Pineamine ko Apirana tama a Kirioni.
25 Nā, ka maunu ko te kara o te puni o ngā tama a Rāna, ko te hiku tēnā o ngā puni katoa, puta noa i ō rātou ope. Ā, ko te kaiwhakahaere o tāna ope ko Ahiētere tama a Amiharai. 26 Ā, ko te kaiwhakahaere o te ope o te iwi o ngā tama a Āhera ko Pakiere tama a Okorana. 27 Ā, ko te kaiwhakahaere o te ope o te iwi o ngā tama a Napatari ko Ahira tama a Enana. 28 Ko ngā maunutanga ēnei o ngā tama a Īharaira, me ō rātou ope, i ō rātou whakatikanga atu.
29 Nā, ka mea a Mohi ki a Hōpapa, tama a Reuere Miriani, a te hungawai o Mohi, “E haere ana mātou ki te wāhi mea nei a Ihowā, ‘Ka hoatu a reira e ahau ki a koutou’; haere mai tātou, ka pai tā mātou mahi ki a koe; he pai hoki te kōrero a Ihowā mō Īharaira.”
30 Ā, ka mea tērā ki a ia, “E kore ahau e haere; engari me haere ahau ki tōku whenua, ki ōku whanaunga.”
31 Ā, ka mea ia, “Kaua rā mātou e whakarērea; e mōhio ana hoki koe ki ngā puni mō mātou i te koraha, ā, ka ai koe hei kanohi mō mātou. 32 Nā, tēnei ake, ki te haere koe i a mātou, inā, tēnei ake ko te pai e meatia mai e Ihowā ki a mātou ka meatia hoki e mātou ki a koe.”
33 Nā, ka tūria atu e rātou i te maunga o Ihowā, e toru ngā rā i haere ai; ā, i haere te āka o te kawenata o Ihowā i mua i a rātou, i ngā rā e toru i haere ai, ki te titiro okiokinga mō rātou. 34 Ā, i runga i a rātou te kapua o Ihowā i te awatea, i tō rātou whakatikanga atu i te puni.
35 Ā, ka maunu te āka, nā, ka mea a Mohi,
“Whakatika, e Ihowā, ā, kia marara ōu hoariri;
kia rere hoki i tōu aroaro
te hunga e kino ana ki a koe.”
36 Ā, ka tū te āka, nā, ka mea ia,
“Hoki mai, e Ihowā,
ki ngā mano tini o Īharaira.”
