Kia Whiwhi ai he Whenua Pai
1 Kia mahara kia mahia ngā whakahau katoa e whakahaua nei e ahau i tēnei rā, kia ora ai koutou, kia tini ai, kia tae ai hoki, kia whiwhi ai ki te whenua i oati rā a Ihowā ki ō koutou mātua. 2 Kia mahara hoki ki te ara katoa i ārahi ai a Ihowā, tōu Atua, i a koe i te koraha, i ēnei tau e whā tekau, kia iro ai koe, hei whakamātautau hoki i a koe, kia mōhiotia ai ngā aha noa i roto i tōu ngākau, ka pupuri rānei koe i āna whakahau, kāhore rānei. 3 Ā, whakawhiua ana koe e ia, whakamatea ana ki te kai, whāngaia ana ki te mana, kīhai nei i mōhiotia e koe, kīhai anō i mōhiotia e ōu mātua; kia whakamōhio ai ia i a koe e kore te tangata e ora i te taro kau, engari mā ngā kupu katoa e puta mai ana i te māngai o Ihowā ka ora ai te tangata. 4 Kīhai tōu kākahu i tawhitotia ki runga ki a koe, kīhai anō hoki tōu waewae i pupuhi, i ēnei tau e whā tekau. 5 Ā, ka mahara koe i roto i tōu ngākau, e papaki ana a Ihowā, tōu Atua i a koe, e pērā ana me te tangata e papaki ana i tāna tama.
6 Nā, kia mau ki ngā whakahau a Ihowā, a tōu Atua, haere hoki i āna huarahi me te wehi anō ki a ia. 7 Nā te mea e kawe ana a Ihowā, tōu Atua, i a koe ki te whenua pai, ki te whenua o ngā awa wai, o ngā puna, o ngā wai hōhonu, e pupū mai ana i ngā raorao, i ngā maunga; 8 ki te whenua o te wīti, o te pārei, o te wāina, o te piki, o te pamekaranete; ki te whenua o te hinu ōriwa, o te honi, 9 ki te whenua e kore ai e onge tāu taro e kai ai koe, e kore rawa ai koe e hapa i tētahi mea; ki te whenua he rino ōna kōhatu, ka keri anō koe i te parāhi i roto i ōna maunga. 10 Ā, ka kai koe, ka mākona, nā, kia whakapai atu koe ki a Ihowā, ki tōu Atua, mō te whenua pai kua hōmai e ia ki a koe.
Kia Tūpato kei Wareware ki a Ihowā
11 Kia tūpato kei wareware ki a Ihowā, ki tōu Atua, kei kore koe e pupuri i āna whakahau, i āna whakaritenga, i āna tikanga, e whakahaua nei e ahau ki a koe i tēnei rā. 12 Kei kai koe, ā, ka mākona, kei hanga hoki i ngā whare papai, ā, noho iho; 13 ā, ka tini haere āu kau, me āu hipi ka nui hoki te hiriwa me te kōura ki a koe, ā, ka tini haere ngā mea katoa ki a koe; 14 nā, ka kake tōu ngākau, ā, ka wareware koe ki a Ihowā, ki tōu Atua, i whakaputa mai rā i a koe i te whenua o Īhipa, i te whare pononga; 15 i arataki hoki i a koe i tēnā koraha nui, whakamataku, i reira nei ngā nākahi tū a-ahi me ngā kopiona, me te whenua matewai, kāhore o reira wai. I whakaputa mai anō i te wai mōu i roto i te kōhatu kiripaka; 16 i whāngai i a koe i te koraha ki te mana, kīhai nei i mōhiotia e ōu mātua; kia iro ai koe, kia whakamātautau ai hoki ia i a koe, ā, kia pai ai te tukunga iho ki a koe. 17 Ā, ka mea koe i roto i tōu ngākau, “Nā tōku kaha, nā te uaua hoki o tōku ringa, i whiwhi ai ahau ki ēnei taonga.” 18 Engari, kia mahara ki a Ihowā, ki tōu Atua, nāna hoki i hōmai te kaha ki a koe i whiwhi ai ki te taonga; kia mana ai tāna kawenata i oati ai ia ki ōu mātua, ā, ka rite nei ināianei.
19 Nā, ki te wareware koe ki a Ihowā, ki tōu Atua, ā, ka whai ki ngā atua kē, ka mahi ki a rātou, ka koropiko atu hoki ki a rātou, māku e kī atu ki a koutou i tēnei rā, ka ngaro rawa koutou. 20 Ka rite ki ngā iwi e whakangaromia nei e Ihowā i tō koutou aroaro, ka pērā anō koutou, ka ngaro; mō koutou kīhai i rongo ki te reo o Ihowā, o tō koutou Atua.
