Te Whānautanga o Mohi
1 Nā, ka haere tētahi tangata o te whare o Rīwai, ka tango i tētahi tamāhine a Rīwai hei wahine. 2 Ā, ka hapū te wahine, ka whānau he tāne; ā, ka kitea he tamaiti pai, e toru ngā marama i hunā ai ia e ia. 3 Ā, tē āhei ia te huna tonu i a ia, ka tango ia i tētahi āka kākaho mōna, pani rawa ki te uku, ki te ware, ā, whaowhina ana te tamaiti ki roto; whakatakotoria iho ki roto ki ngā wīwī i te pareparenga o te awa. 4 Ā, tū ana i tawhiti tōna tuahine, kia kite e ahatia rānei ia.
5 Nā, ko te haerenga iho o te tamāhine a Parao ki te awa, ki te horoi; ko āna kōtiro hoki e haere ana i te taha o te awa. Ā, ka kite ia i te āka i roto i ngā wīwī, ka ngare i tāna kōtiro ki te tiki. 6 Ā, nō tāna hurahanga ake, ka kite i te tamaiti; nā, ka tangi te tamaiti. Ā, ka aroha ia ki a ia, ka mea, “Nō ngā tamariki a ngā Hiperu tēnei.”
7 Kātahi ka mea tōna tuahine ki te tamāhine a Parao, “Kia haere ahau ki te karanga i tētahi wahine whakangote o ngā Hiperu ki a koe hei whakangote māu i te tamaiti?”
8 Ā, ka kī te tamāhine a Parao ki a ia, “Haere.” Ā, haere ana te kōtiro, karanga ana i te whaea o te tamaiti. 9 Ā, ka mea te tamāhine a Parao ki a ia, “Tangohia te tamaiti nei, whakangotea māku, ā, māku e hoatu he utu ki a koe.” Nā, tango ana te wahine i te tamaiti, ā, whakangotea ana e ia. 10 Ā, ka nui te tamaiti, ka kawea e ia ki te tamāhine a Parao, ā, ka waiho ia hei tama māna. Ā, huaina iho e ia tōna ingoa ko Mohi; i mea hoki, “Nō te mea i tōia ake ia e ahau i roto i te wai.”
I Rere a Mohi ki Miriana
11 Ā, i aua rā, ka kaumātuatia a Mohi, nā, ka haere ki ōna tuākana, ka titiro hoki ki ā rātou kawenga; ā, ka kite ia i tētahi Īhipiana e patu ana i tētahi Hiperu, nō ōna tuākana. 12 Nā, ka tāhurihuri ia, ā, ka kite kāhore he tangata, patua iho te Īhipiana, ā, hunā iho ki te onepū. 13 Ā, ka haere ia i te rua o ngā rā, nā, tokorua ngā tāngata o ngā Hiperu e whawhai ana ki a rāua; ā, ka mea atu ia ki te tangata nāna te kino, “He aha koe i patu ai i tōu hoa?”
14 Nā, ka mea tērā, “Nā wai koe i kī hei rangatira, hei kaiwhakawā mō mātou? E mea ana koe ki te patu i ahau me koe i patu rā i te Īhipiana?” Ā, ka wehi a Mohi, ka mea, “Koia hoki, kua rangona tēnei mea.” 15 Ā, ka rongo a Parao i taua mea, nā, ka whai kia patua a Mohi.
Otiia i rere a Mohi i te aroaro o Parao, ā, noho ana i te whenua o Miriana; nā, kua noho ia ki te puna. 16 Nā, tokowhitu ngā tamāhine a te tohunga o Miriana; ā, ka haere rātou, ka utuutu wai, ka whakakī i ngā waka, hei whakainu i ngā hipi a tō rātou pāpā. 17 Ā, ko te haerenga o ngā hēpara, kei te atiati i a rātou; ā, ka whakatika a Mohi ka araarai i a rātou, ka whakainu i ā rātou hipi. 18 Ā, ka tae rātou ki a Reuere, ki tō rātou pāpā, ka mea ia, “Nā te aha koutou i hohoro mai ai ināianei?”
19 Ā, ka mea rātou, “Nā tētahi Īhipiana i ora ai mātou i te ringa o ngā hēpara, nāna anō i utuutu he wai mā mātou, i whakainu hoki ngā hipi.”
20 Nā, ka mea ia ki āna tamāhine, “Ā, kei hea ia? He aha taua tangata i whakarērea ai e koutou? Karangatia ki te kai taro.”
21 Ā, i pai a Mohi ki te noho ki taua tangata; ā, ka hōmai e ia a Hipora, tāna tamāhine, ki a Mohi. 22 Ā, ka whānau ia, he tāne, ā, huaina iho e ia tōna ingoa ko Kerehoma; i mea hoki ia, “He manene ahau i te whenua kē.”
23 Nā, i muri i ngā rā e maha ka mate te kīngi o Īhipa; ā, ka hotu te manawa o ngā tama a Īharaira i te whakamahinga. Ā, auē ana rātou; ā, ka puta ake tā rātou auē ki te Atua, nō rātou hoki e whakamahia ana. 24 Ā, ka rongo te Atua ki tā rātou tangi, ka mahara te Atua ki tāna kawenata ki a Āperahama, ki a Hākopa, ki a Īhaka. 25 Nā, ka titiro te Atua ki ngā tama a Īharaira, ā, ka mōhio te Atua ki a rātou.
