He Tangi mō Parao me Īhipa
1 Nā, i te tekau mā rua o ngā tau, i te tekau mā rua o ngā marama, i te tuatahi o ngā rā o te marama, ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowā ki ahau, i mea: 2 “E te tama a te tangata, kia ara tōu tangi mō Parao kīngi o Īhipa, mea atu hoki ki a ia:
Ko tōu rite kei te kūao raiona o ngā iwi;
otiia, e rite ana koe ki te tarakona o ngā moana;
i kōkiri mai anō koe me ōu awa,
pōkarekare ana ngā wai i ōu waewae,
poke ana i a koe ō rātou awa.”
3 Ko te kupu tēnei a te Ariki, a Ihowā:
“Ka horahia e ahau tāku kupenga ki runga ki a koe,
he huihuinga hoki nō ngā iwi maha;
ā, ka riro ake koe i a rātou i tāku kupenga.
4 Ka waiho anō koe e ahau ki runga ki te whenua,
ka ākiritia atu anō koe ki te mata o te pārae,
māku anō e mea kia nohoia koe e ngā manu katoa o te rangi,
kia mākona anō ngā kīrehe o te whenua katoa i a koe.
5 Ka takoto anō i ahau ōu kikokiko ki runga ki ngā maunga,
ka whakakīia anō ngā awaawa ki a koe e tiketike nā.
6 Ka whakamākūkūria anō e ahau ki ōu toto te whenua e kau nā koe,
ā, tutuki noa ki ngā maunga;
ka kī anō hoki ngā awa i a koe.
7 Ā, ka oti koe te tinei e ahau,
ka hīpokina e ahau te rangi,
ka whakapōuritia anō hoki ngā whetū o reira;
ka hīpokina e ahau te rā ki te kapua,
e kore anō e titi te atarau.
8 Nā, ko ngā whakamārama katoa e mārama nei te rangi,
ka whakapōuritia e ahau ki runga ki a koe,
ka hoatu anō e ahau he pōuri ki runga ki tōu whenua,
e ai tā te Ariki, tā Ihowā.
9 He maha anō ngā iwi e mamae ō rātou ngākau i ahau,
ina meinga e ahau kia tae atu tōu whakangaromanga ki ngā iwi,
ki ngā whenua kīhai i mōhiotia e koe.
10 Inā, he maha ngā iwi e meinga e ahau kia ketekete ki a koe,
ka nui anō te wehi o ō rātou kīngi, ina whakaaro ki a koe.
Ua wherikoriko tāku hoari ki tō rātou aroaro,
hono tonu anō tō rātou wiri, ia tangata, ia tangata,
i te wehi mō tōna oranga anō,
i te rā e hinga ai koe.
11 “Nō te mea ko te kupu tēnei a te Ariki, a Ihowā:
Tērā e tae atu te hoari a te kīngi o Papurōna ki a koe.
12 Ka meinga e ahau ōu mano tini,
te hunga nanakia o ngā iwi,
rātou katoa kia hinga i ngā hoari a ngā mārohirohi.
Ā, ka pāhuatia e rātou ngā mea whakaī o Īhipa,
ka ngaro anō ō reira mano tini katoa.
13 Ka ngaro anō i ahau ō reira kararehe katoa
i te taha o ngā wai maha;
e kore anō e pōkarekare i te wae tangata ā muri ake nei,
e kore anō e ngarungaru i te wae kararehe.
14 Ko reira ahau mea ai i ō rātou wai kia purata,
ka meinga anō e ahau ō rātou awa kia rite ki te hinu te rere, e ai tā te Ariki, tā Ihowā.
15 Kia meinga e ahau te whenua o Īhipa hei ururua,
ā, kore iho ngā tini mea o te whenua,
kia patua anō e ahau te hunga katoa e noho ana i reira,
kātahi rātou ka mōhio ko Ihowā ahau.
16 “Ko te tangi tēnei e tangihia ai ia e rātou, ka tangihia ia e ngā tamāhine a ngā iwi. Ka tangihia ia e rātou, arā a Īhipa rātou ko ōna mano tini, e ai tā te Ariki, tā Ihowā.”
He Apakura mō Īhipa
17 Nā, i te tekau mā rua o ngā tau, i te tekau mā rima o ngā rā o te marama, ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowā ki ahau, i mea: 18 “E te tama a te tangata, auē ki te mano tini o Īhipa, makā iho rātou, a ia, me ngā tamāhine a ngā iwi nunui, ki ngā wāhi o raro rawa o te whenua, rātou ko te hunga e heke ana ki te rua. 19 ‘He ātaahua rawa koe i a wai? Heke iho, takoto tahi koutou ko te hunga kokotikore.’ 20 Ka hinga rātou ki waenga i te hunga i patua ki te hoari. Kua tukua atu ia ki te hoari; tōia atu me ōna mano tini katoa. 21 Ka kōrero mai ngā tāngata kaha o ngā mārohirohi ki a ia i roto i te rēinga, rātou ko ōna kaiāwhina: ‘Kua heke rātou ki raro, kei te takoto rātou, te korikori, arā ngā kokotikore, he mea patu ki te hoari.’
22 “Kei reira anō a Ahuru rātou ko tōna hui katoa; ko ōna urupā, kei tētahi taha ōna, kei tētahi taha; he mea patu katoa, kua hinga i te hoari. 23 Ko ōna urupā, he mea mahi ki ngā pito rawa o te rua. Ko tōna rōpū anō kei tētahi taha o tōna urupā, kei tētahi taha; he mea patu katoa rātou, kua hinga i te hoari, te hunga i puta ai te wehi ki te whenua o te hunga ora.
24 “Kei reira a Erama, rātou ko ōna mano tini i tētahi taha o tōna urupā, i tētahi taha. Ko rātou katoa he mea patu, kua hinga i te hoari, he hunga kua heke kokotikore atu ki ngā wāhi o raro rawa o te whenua, he hunga i mea i tō rātou wehi kia puta ki te whenua o te hunga ora. Heoi, kei te mau te whakamā o rātou, o te hunga anō e heke ana ki te rua. 25 Kua hangā te takotoranga mōna ki roto ki te hunga i patua, mō rātou anō ko ōna mano tini katoa. Ko ōna urupā kei tētahi taha ōna, kei tētahi taha; he kokotikore rātou katoa, he mea patu ki te hoari. I puta hoki tō rātou wehi ki te whenua o te hunga ora, heoi kua mau te whakamā o rātou, o te hunga anō e heke ana ki te rua; kua tukua atu ia ki roto ki te hunga i patua.
26 “Kei reira a Meheke, a Tūpara, rātou ko ōna mano tini katoa; ko ōna urupā kei tētahi taha ōna kei tētahi taha, he mea kokotikore rātou katoa, he mea patu ki te hoari; i puta anō tō rātou wehi i mua ki te whenua o te hunga ora. 27 E kore anō rātou e takoto i roto i ngā mārohirohi o ngā kokotikore kua hinga, kua heke ki te rēinga me ā rātou patu anō o te whawhai. I whakatakotoria anō e rātou ā rātou hoari ki raro i ō rātou māhunga, ā, kei te mau ō rātou kino ki ō rātou wheua; ko te hunga hoki tēnā i wehi ai ngā mārohirohi o te whenua o te ora.
28 “Otiia, ka whatia koe i roto i te hunga kokotikore, ka takoto tahi hoki koutou ko te hunga i patua ki te hoari.
29 “Kei reira a Ēroma, ōna kīngi, ōna rangatira katoa i tukua nei i runga i tō rātou mārohirohi ki roto ki te hunga i werohia e te hoari. Ka takoto tahi rātou ko ngā kokotikore, rātou anō ko te hunga e heke ana ki te rua.
30 “Kei reira ngā ariki o te raki, rātou katoa, me ngā Haironi katoa i heke nei i roto i te hunga i patua; whakamā iho rātou i te wehi i tupu mai i tō rātou mārohirohi, ā, takoto kokotikore ana rātou i roto i te hunga i patua ki te hoari, me te mau te whakamā o rātou, o te hunga anō e heke ana ki te rua.
31 “E kite a Parao i a rātou, ā, ka whai whakamārietanga ki āna mano tini katoa i patua ki te hoari – a Parao rātou ko tāna ope katoa, e ai tā te Ariki, tā Ihowā. 32 Nō te mea kua tukua e ahau tōna wehi ki te whenua o te hunga ora; ā, ka whakatakotoria ia ki roto ki te hunga kokotikore, rātou ko te hunga i patua ki te hoari – a Parao rātou ko āna mano tini, e ai tā te Ariki, tā Ihowā.”
