Ka Whakaaria te Whakapaeanga o Hiruhārama
1 “Nā, ko koe hoki, e te tama a te tangata, tīkina tētahi pereki māu, whakatakotoria ki tōu aroaro, ka tuhituhi ai he pā, ko Hiruhārama, ki runga. 2 Whakapaea anō taua mea, hangā he taumaihi hei whakapae mōna; haupūria ake he pukepuke hei whakapae mōna, hangā he nohoanga taua, hei whawhai ki reira, hangā hoki ngā mea wāwāhi mōna, ā taka noa. 3 Tīkina anō tētahi rino pāraharaha māu whakatūria ake hei taiepa rino ki waenganui ōu, o te pā; kia anga atu anō tōu mata ki reira, ā, ka whakapaea a reira, me whakapae hoki e koe. Hei tohu tēnei ki te whare o Īharaira.
4 “Me takoto anō hoki koe ki tōu taha mauī, ka uta ai i te kino o te whare o Īharaira ki runga ki taua taha. Ko tāu wahanga i tō rātou kino ka rite ki te maha o ngā rā i takoto ai koe ki taua taha. 5 Kua oti hoki i ahau ngā tau o tā rātou kino te uta ki runga ki a koe, kei te maha o ngā rā te ritenga, arā e toru rau e iwa tekau ngā rā; nā, ka waha e koe te hē o te whare o Īharaira.
6 “Ā, ka poto ēnei i a koe, me takoto hoki koe ki tōu taha matau, ā, ka waha koe i te hē o te whare o Hūrā. Ko tāku i whakarite ai ki a koe, e whā tekau ngā rā; he rā mō te tau, he rā mō te tau. 7 Whakaangahia atu hoki tōu kanohi ki te whakapaenga o Hiruhārama, tahanga kau tōu ringa; ā, ka poropiti koe i te hē mō reira. 8 Nanā, ka meatia koe e ahau ki te here, ā, e kore koe e huri i tētahi taha ōu ki tētahi taha ōu, kia poto rā anō i a koe ōu rā whakapae.
9 “Tīkina hoki he wīti māu, he pārei, he pīni, he mirete, he rai, ka maka ki roto ki te oko kotahi, ka hanga i tētahi taro māu; kia rite ki te maha o ngā rā e takoto ai koe ki tōu taha, e toru rau e iwa tekau ngā rā e kainga ai taua mea e koe. 10 Me pāuna anō tāu kai e kainga ai e koe, kia rua tekau ngā hekere i te rā kotahi; me kai e koe i tēnei wā, i tēnei wā. 11 Me mēhua anō te wai e inumia e koe; ko te wāhi whakaono o te hine, me inu e koe i tēnei wā, i tēnei wā. 12 Ā, me kai e koe te kai ānō he keke pārei, ā, me tunu taua mea i tā rātou tirohanga ki te paru e puta mai ana i te tangata.” 13 Ā, i kī mai a Ihowā, “Ka pēnā anō te kai a ngā tama a Īharaira, i tā rātou taro poke i roto i ngā tauiwi e peia atu ai rātou e ahau.”
14 Nā, ko tāku kīanga ake, “Auē, e te Ariki, e Ihowā! Nanā, kīhai tōku wairua i poke; kīhai anō ahau i kai i te mea mate māori, i te mea i haea e te kīrehe, o tōku tamarikitanga anō ā mohoa noa nei; kīhai anō tētahi kikokiko whakarihariha i tapoko ki roto ki tōku māngai.”
15 Kātahi ka mea ia ki ahau, “Titiro, kua hoatu e ahau ki a koe te paru kau hei whakarite mō te paru tangata, ā, ka tunu koe i tāu taro ki aua mea.”
16 Nā, ka mea ia ki ahau: “E te tama a te tangata, kua oti te whawhati e ahau te tokotoko, arā te taro i Hiruhārama; ā, ko tā rātou taro e kai ai he mea pāuna, i runga anō i te mānukanuka; he mea mēhua anō te wai, ka inumia e rātou i runga i te ketekete. 17 He mea kia kore ai he taro, he wai, mā rātou, ketekete iho tētahi ki tētahi, memeha noa iho i runga i tō rātou hē.”
