| Chapter 7 |
1 | ¶ Ko ta te Ariki, ko ta Ihowa tenei i whakaatu ai ki ahau; nana, i hanga e ia he mawhitiwhiti i te timatanga o te pihinga ake o to muri tupu; nana, ko to muri tupu ia i muri iho i a te kingi tapahanga. |
2 | Na ka poto te tarutaru o te whenua te kai, ka mea ahau, E te Ariki, e Ihowa, tena ra, murua te he: ma te aha oti a Hakopa ka ara ai? he iti nei hoki ia. |
3 | I puta ke to Ihowa whakaaro mo tenei; E kore e meatia, e ai ta Ihowa. |
4 | Ko ta te Ariki, ko ta Ihowa tenei i whakakite ai ki ahau: na kua karangatia e te Ariki, e Ihowa, he whawhai, he mea ahi, a ka pau te rire nui, a ka mea kia kainga te whenua. |
5 | Na ka mea ahau, Kati ra, e te Ariki, e Ihowa, ma te aha oti a Hakopa ka ara ai? he iti nei hoki ia. |
6 | I puta ke to Ihowa whakaaro mo tenei, E kore ano tenei e meatia, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa. |
7 | I whakakitea tenei e ia ki ahau: na, ko te Ariki e tu ana i runga i te taiepa, he mea paramu ki te aho, me te aho paramu i tona ringa. |
8 | Na ka mea a Ihowa ki ahau, Ko te aha e kitea ana e koe, e Amoho? Ano ra ko ahau, He aho paramu. Katahi te Ariki ka ki mai, Nana, ka iri i ahau he aho paramu i waenganui i taku iwi, i a Iharaira: e kore e whakarerea noatia iho ta ratou e ahau a mu ri ake nei. |
9 | A ka ururuatia nga wahi tiketike o Ihaka, ka tuheatia nga wahi tapu o Iharaira; ka whakatika atu ano ahau, me te hoari ki te whare o Ieropoama. |
10 | ¶ Na ka unga tangata a Amatia tohunga o Peteere ki a Ieropoama kingi o Iharaira hei ki atu, Kua whakatakotoria e Amoho he he mou i roto i te whare o Iharaira; kahore e taea e tenei whenua te waha ana kupu katoa. |
11 | Ko te kupu hoki tenei a Amoho, Ka mate a Ieropoama i te hoari, a ka whakaraua rawatia atu a Iharaira i to ratou oneone. |
12 | I mea ano a Amatia ki a Amoho, E te matakite, haere, e rere ki te whenua o Hura, ki reira kai ai i te taro mau, ki reira poropiti ai. |
13 | Engari kati tau poropiti ki Peteere: ko to te kingi wahi tapu hoki ia, he whare hoki no te kingitanga. |
14 | Na ka whakahoki a Amoho, ka mea ki a Amatia, Ehara ahau i te poropiti, ehara ano i te tama na te poropiti; engari he kaitiaki kahui ahau, he kaikikini hikamora: |
15 | I tikina ake hoki ahau e Ihowa i te mea e whai ana i nga hipi, i ki mai ano a Ihowa ki ahau, Haere, poropiti ki taku iwi, ki a Iharaira. |
16 | Na whakarongo ki te kupu a Ihowa, E mea na koe, Kaua e poropiti ki a Iharaira, kei maturuturu iho ano tetahi kupu au hei whakahe mo te whare o Ihaka. |
17 | No reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Tera tau wahine e kairau i roto i te pa, a ka hinga au tama me au tamahine i te hoari, ka wehewehea tou oneone, mea rawa ki te aho; ka mate koe i runga i te oneone poke, ka whakaraua rawatia atu hoki a Iharaira i tona oneone. |
