Ngā Pā Whakaoranga
(Tauanga 35.9-34)
1 Nā, ka kōrero a Ihowā ki a Hohua, ka mea: 2 “Kōrero ki ngā tama a Īharaira, mea atu: Whakaritea e koutou ētahi pā whakaora, ko āku i kōrero ai, nā Mohi i whakapuaki ki a koutou; 3 hei rerenga atu mō te tangata whakamate, i patu nei i tētahi tangata, he mea urupā, ehara i te mea āta whakaaro; ā, ka waiho hei whakaora mō koutou, kei mate i te kaitakitaki toto.
4 “Ā, ka rere ia ki tētahi o ēnei pā, ka tū i te kūwaha o te tomokanga o te pā, nā, ka kōrero i āna kōrero ki ngā taringa o ngā kaumātua o tēnā pā. Ā, me tango atu ia e rātou ki roto ki te pā, ki roto ki a rātou, ka hōmai he wāhi ki a ia, ā, ka noho ia ki a rātou.
5 “Ā, ki te whāia atu ia e te kaitakitaki toto, kaua e tukua atu te tangata whakamate e rātou ki tōna ringa; nō te mea ehara i te mea āta whakaaro tāna patunga i tōna hoa, kīhai anō ia i kino ki a ia i mua ake. 6 Engari, me noho ia ki taua pā, kia tū rā anō ia ki mua i te whakaminenga whakawākia ai, ā, kia mate rā anō te tino tohunga o aua rā. Ko reira hoki ai te tangata whakamate, haere ai ki tōna pā, ki tōna whare hoki, ki te pā i rere atu nei ia i reira.”
7 Nā, ka whakatapua e rātou ko Kerehe i Karirī, i te whenua pukepuke o Napatari, ko Hekeme i te whenua pukepuke o Ēparaima, ko Kiriata Arapa, arā ko Heperona, i te whenua pukepuke o Hūrā. 8 Nā, i tāwāhi o Horano, i te wāhi e anga ana ki Heriko whaka te rāwhiti ka whakaritea e rātou ko Pētere i te koraha i te mānia, nō te iwi o Reupena, ko Rāmoto i Kireara, nō te iwi o Kara, ko Korana hoki i Pahana, nō te iwi o Mānahi. 9 Ko ngā pā ēnei i whakaritea mō ngā tama katoa a Īharaira, mō te manene hoki e noho ana i roto i a rātou, hei rerenga atu mō ngā tāngata katoa i whakamatea ai tētahi tangata, he mea urupā, kei mate i te ringa o te kaitakitaki toto, kia tū rā anō i mua i te whakaminenga.
