Ihāia.
40.
Whakamārietia, whakamārietia tāku iwi, e ai tā tō koutou Atua. 
Kōrero i runga i te whakamārie ki Hiruhārama, karanga ki a ia, kua mutu tāna whawhai, kua murua tōna hē; i haere rua hoki tā te ringa o Ihowā ki a ia hei utu mō ōna hara katoa. 
He reo nō tētahi e karanga ana: “Whakapaia e koutou i te koraha te huarahi o Ihowā, whakatikaia i te tītōhea he ara nui mō tō tātou Atua. 
Ko ngā raorao katoa ka whakarewaina ake, ko ngā maunga katoa me ngā pukepuke, ka whakapāpakutia iho; ko ngā wāhi kōpikopiko ka meinga kia tika, ko ngā wāhi taratara kia papatairite. 
Ka whakapuakina anō te korōria o Ihowā, ā, ka kite ngātahi ngā kikokiko katoa; 
I mea mai te reo o tētahi, “Karanga!” Ā, ka mea tētahi, “Ko te aha kia karangatia e ahau?” “He tarutaru ngā kikokiko katoa, ā, ko tōna pai katoa, rite tonu ki te puāwai o te pārae. 
Ko te tarutaru ka maroke, ko te puāwai ka memenge, nō te mea e hāngia ana e te Wairua o Ihowā; he pono, he tarutaru te iwi. 
Ko te tarutaru e maroke, ko te puāwai e memenge; ko te kupu ia a tō tātou Atua, tū tonu.” 
E koe, e te kaikawe o te rongo pai ki Hiona, e piki ki te maunga tiketike. E koe, e te kaikawe o te rongo pai ki Hiruhārama, whakaarahia tōu reo, kia kaha; whakaarahia, kaua hei wehi; kōrero atu ki ngā pā o Hūrā, “Nanā, tō koutou Atua!” 
Nanā, ka haere mai te Ariki, a Ihowā, i runga i te kaha, ka whakahaerea anō tōna kīngitanga e tōna ringa; nā, ko te utu mōna kei a ia anō, kei tōna aroaro te wāhi māna. 
Ka rite ki tā te hēpara tāna whāngai i tāna kāhui, ka whakaminea ngā reme e tōna ringa, ka hikitia ki tōna uma, ka āta ārahina ngā mea e whakangote ana. 
Nā wai i mēhua ngā wai ki te kapu o tōna ringa, he whanganga ringaringa anō tāna rūri mō ngā rangi. Whaowhina ake e ia te puehu o te whenua ki te mēhua, ko ngā maunga, pāunatia ana e ia ki te pāuna ringaringa, ko ngā pukepuke ki te pāuna papa? 
Nā wai tā te Wairua o Ihowā i tika ai? Ko wai rānei tāna kaiwhakatakoto whakaaro hei whakaako i a ia? 
Ko wai tōna hoa whakatakoto whakaaro hei tohutohu i a ia ki te ara o te whakawā, hei whakaako i a ia ki te mātauranga, hei whakakite i te ara o te mōhio ki a ia? 
Nanā, ko ngā iwi, ānō he pata wai i roto i te pere! Ki tā te whakaaro he puehu ririki rātou i te pāuna; nanā, ko ngā motu, maua ake e ia, he mea ririki rawa te rite. 
E kore anō e ranea a Repanōna mō te ahi, me ngā kararehe hoki o reira, e kore e ranea hei tahunga tinana. 
Ko ngā iwi katoa, he kore noa iho i tōna aroaro; iti iho rātou i te kāhore, he horihori kau i tōna whakaaro. 
Nā, ka whakaritea e koutou te Atua ki a wai? He aha hoki te āhua e whakaahuatia ai ia e koutou? 
Ko te whakapakoko, nā te kaimahi ia i whakarewa, nā te kaitahu i whakakikorua ki te kōura, ā, hangā ana mō reira he mekameka hiriwa. 
Ko te tangata, he rawakore rawa ia ki te hoatu whakahere pērā, whiriwhiria ana e ia he rākau e kore e pirau; rapua ana e ia he kaimahi mōhio māna, hei hanga i tētahi whakapakoko e kore e nekenekehia. 
Kāhore ianei koutou i mōhio? Kāhore koutou i rongo? Kāhore ianei i kōrerotia ki a koutou i te tīmatanga? Kāhore ianei koutou i mātau i ngā whakatūranga rā anō o te whenua? 
Ko ia te noho ana i runga i te porohita o te whenua, ā, ko ō reira tāngata, ānō he māwhitiwhiti; ko ngā rangi, horahia ana e ia ānō he kākahu tauārai, horahia ana e ia ānō he tēneti hei nohoanga; 
ko ngā rangatira, whakahokia iho e ia ki te kāhore; ko ngā kaiwhakawā o te whenua, meinga ana e ia hei mea horihori noa iho. 
Āe rā, kāhore rātou i whakatōkia; āe rā, kāhore rātou i ruia; āe rā, kāhore tō rātou take i whai pakiaka ki te whenua; ka pupuhi hoki ia ki a rātou, ā, ka maroke rātou; ka rite ki te kakau wīti, ka kāwhakina e te paroro. 
“Nā, ki tā koutou, kei tō wai he āhua mōku? Ka rite rānei ahau ki a wai?” e ai tā te Mea Tapu. 
E ara ō koutou kanohi ki runga titiro ai: Nā wai ēnei mea i hanga? Nā wai ō rātou mano i whakaputa mai he mea tatau tonu; karangatia ana e ia ngā ingoa o rātou katoa, māroro rawa, pakari tonu te kaha; e kore tētahi e ngaro. 
He aha koe i kōrero ai, e Hākopa, i mea ai, e Īharaira, “Kua hunā tōku ara ki a Ihowā, kua mahue i tōku Atua tōku whakawā”? 
Kāhore koe i mōhio? Kāhore koe i rongo, ko te Atua onamata, ko Ihowā, ko te Kaihanga o ngā pito o te whenua. E kore ia e ngenge, e kore ia e māuiui? E kore tōna mātauranga e taea te rapu. 
E hōmai ana e ia he kaha ki te hunga ngenge; ā, whakanuia ana e ia te pakari o te mea ngoikore. 
Ahakoa ko ngā taitamariki, ka ngenge tonu, ka māuiui, ā, ko ngā taitama, ka hinga rawa. 
Tēnā ko te hunga e tatari ana ki a Ihowā, puta hou ana he kaha mō rātou; kake ana rātou ki runga; ko ngā parirau, koia ānō kei o ngā ēkara; ka rere rātou, ā, e kore e māuiui; ka haere, ā, e kore e ngenge.
