Ka Unga a Mohi he Tūtei ki Kanaana
(Tiuteronomi 1.19-33)
1 I kōrero anō a Ihowā ki a Mohi, i mea, 2 “Me unga e koe ētahi tāngata hei tūtei mō te whenua o Kanaana, mō tērā e hoatu nei e ahau ki ngā tama a Īharaira. Kia kotahi o tēnei iwi, o tēnei iwi o ō rātou mātua e tonoa e koutou, hei te rangatira anake.”
3 Nā, ka unga a Mohi i a rātou i te koraha o Parana, ka pērā me tā Ihowā i kī ai; he upoko katoa ēnei tāngata nō ngā tama a Īharaira. 4 Ko ō rātou ingoa ēnei:
nō te iwi o Reupena, ko Hāmua tama a Tākuru;
5 nō te iwi o Himiona, ko Hāpata tama a Hori;
6 nō te iwi o Hūrā, ko Karepe tama a Iepune;
7 nō te iwi o Ihākara, ko Ikara tama a Hōhepa;
8 nō te iwi o Ēparaima, ko Hohea tama a Nunu;
9 nō te iwi o Pineamine, ko Parati tama a Rapu;
10 nō te iwi o Hepurona, ko Kariere tama a Hori;
11 nō te iwi o Hōhepa, arā nō te iwi o Mānahi, ko Kari tama a Huhi;
12 nō te iwi o Rāna, ko Amiere tama a Kemari;
13 nō te iwi o Āhera, ko Heturu tama a Mikaere;
14 nō te iwi o Napatari, ko Nahapi tama a Wopohi;
15 nō te iwi o Kara, ko Keuere tama a Maki.
16 Ko ngā ingoa ēnei o ngā tāngata i ungā nei e Mohi hei tūtei mō te whenua. Ā, huaina iho e Mohi a Hohea tama a Nunu ko Hohua.
17 Nā, ka ungā rātou e Mohi hei tūtei mō te whenua o Kanaana, ka mea ia ki a rātou, “Haere atu ki runga nā konei, nā te tonga, ka kake ki te maunga; 18 ka titiro ai i te whenua, he aha rānei; i te iwi anō hoki e noho ana i reira, he kaha rānei, he kahakore rānei, he tokoouou rānei, he tokomaha rānei. 19 He pēhea te whenua e nohoia ana e rātou, he pai rānei, he kino rānei; he pēhea hoki ngā pā e nohoia ana e rātou, he tēneti rānei, he mea taiepa rānei; 20 he pēhea hoki te whenua, he mōmona rānei, he kikokore rānei, he rākau rānei tō reira, kāhore rānei. Kia māia hoki, maua mai anō ētahi o ngā hua o te whenua.” Nā, ko taua wā ko te wā o ngā karepe mātāmua.
21 Nā, ko tō rātou haerenga ki runga, tūteia ana e rātou te whenua i te koraha o Hini, ā tae noa ki Rehopo, ki te haerenga atu ki Hāmata. 22 Ā, i haere rātou nā te tonga, ka tae ki Heperona; ā, i reira a Ahimana, a Hehai, a Tāramai, ngā tama a Anaka. (Nā, ko Heperona, ko tōna hanganga, e whitu ngā tau i mua i tō Toana i Īhipa.) 23 Ā, ka tae iho rātou ki te awaawa ki Ehekora, ka tapahia i reira he manga karepe, kotahi te tautau, ka amohia e te tokorua i runga i te tokotoko; i mauria mai anō ētahi pamekaranete, me ētahi piki. 24 Ā, huaina iho taua wāhi ko te raorao o Ehekora, nō te tautau karepe i tapahia e ngā tama a Īharaira i reira.
Te Kōrero o ngā Tūtei
25 Nō te paunga o ngā rā e whā tekau ka hoki mai rātou i te tūtei i te whenua. 26 Nā, haere ana, ā, ka tae ki a Mohi rātou ko Ārona, ko te whakaminenga katoa o ngā tama a Īharaira, ki te koraha o Parana, ki Karehe; ki te whakahoki i te kōrero ki a rātou ko te whakaminenga katoa, ā, whakakitea ana e rātou ngā hua o te whenua ki a rātou. 27 Ā, ka kōrero ki a ia, ka mea, “I tae mātou ki te whenua i ungā nei mātou e koe, nā, he pono e rerengia ana e te waiū, e te honi; ko ōna hua tēnei. 28 Otiia he kaha te iwi e noho ana i taua whenua, he mea taiepa hoki ngā pā, he nunui rawa; i kite anō mātou i ngā tama a Anaka ki reira. 29 E noho ana ngā Amareki i te whenua ki te tonga; ko ngā Hiti, ko ngā Iepuhi, ko ngā Amori, e noho ana i ngā maunga; kei te taha o te moana ngā Kanaani e noho ana, kei te taha anō o Horano.”
30 Nā, ka whakamārietia te iwi e Karepe i te aroaro o Mohi, ā, ka mea ia, “Kia hohoro tā tātou haere ki te tango i reira; e taea hoki e tātou.”
31 Ko ngā tāngata ia i haere tahi me ia ki runga, i mea, “E kore e āhei i a tātou te haere ki runga, ki taua iwi; he kaha ake hoki rātou i a tātou.” 32 Nā, ka kawea e rātou he kōrero kino mō te whenua i tūteia e rātou ki ngā tama a Īharaira, i mea rātou, “Ko taua whenua i haerea rā e mātou, i tūteia, he whenua e ngau ana i ōna tāngata; he tangata nunui rawa hoki te hunga katoa i kitea e mātou ki reira. 33 He nunui rawa hoki ngā tāngata i kitea e mātou ki reira, he tama nā Anaka, he uri nō ngā tāngata roroa; ā, ki tā mātou titiro, me he māwhitiwhiti mātou; he pērā anō mātou ki tā rātou titiro.”
