Ka Whakawhiua a Rāwiri e Haora
1 Nā, ka kōrero a Haora ki a Honatana, ki tāna tama, rātou ko āna tāngata katoa, kia whakamatea a Rāwiri. 2 Otiia nui atu te whakaahuareka o Honatana, tama a Haora, ki a Rāwiri. Nā, ka kōrero a Honatana ki a Rāwiri, ka mea, “E whai ana tōku pāpā, a Haora kia whakamatea koe; nā, kia tūpato ki a koe i te ata, me noho ki te wāhi ngaro, ka huna ai i a koe. 3 Ā, ka puta atu ahau, ka tū ki te taha o tōku pāpā i te māra kei reira nei koe, nā, ka kōrerotia koe e ahau ki tōku pāpā, ā, ko tāku e kite ai ka kōrerotia e ahau ki a koe.”
4 Nā, ka kōrerotia paitia a Rāwiri e Honatana ki tōna pāpā, ki a Haora; i mea ia ki a ia, “Kei hara te kīngi ki tāna pononga, ki a Rāwiri; kāhore hoki ōna hara ki a koe, he nui rawa hoki te pai o āna mahi ki a koe. 5 I whakamomori atu nā hoki ia ki te mate, ā, patua iho te Pirihitini, nā, he nui te whakaoranga i whakaora ai a Ihowā i a Īharaira katoa. I kite koe, i koa hoki, ā, he aha rā koe ka hara ai ki ngā toto harakore, ka whakamate noa iho ai i a Rāwiri?”
6 Nā, ka whakarongo a Haora ki te reo o Honatana; ā, ka oati a Haora, “E ora ana a Ihowā, e kore ia e whakamatea.”
7 Nā, ka karangatia a Rāwiri e Honatana, ā, whakaaturia ana e Honatana ēnei mea katoa ki a ia. Nā, kawea ana a Rāwiri e Honatana ki a Haora; ā, noho ana ia ki tōna aroaro, pērā i mua.
Ka Āwhina a Miraka i a Rawiri kia Whakarere mai i a Haora
8 Nā, he whawhai anō tērā; ā, haere ana a Rāwiri ki te whawhai ki ngā Pirihitini, ā, patua iho rātou e ia, he nui te parekura, ā, whati ana rātou i tōna aroaro.
9 Nā, kua puta he wairua kino i a Ihowā ki a Haora, i a ia e noho ana i tōna whare, me tāna tao i tōna ringa; ā, ko Rāwiri i whakatangi i te hāpa ki tōna ringa. 10 Nā, ka whai a Haora kia werohia a Rāwiri ki te tao, kia titi pū ki te pakitara. Otiia, i whakahipa ia i te aroaro o Haora, ā, ākina kautia ana e tērā te tao ki te pakitara; ko Rāwiri ia i rere, i mawhiti i taua pō.
11 Nā, ka tono karere a Haora ki te whare o Rāwiri, ki te whanga ki a ia, kia whakamatea ia i te ata. Nā, ka kōrerotia ki a Rāwiri e Mikara, e tāna wahine; i mea, “Ki te kāhore koe e whakaora i a koe i tēnei pō, āpōpō koe whakamatea ai.” 12 Heoi, ka tukua iho a Rāwiri e Mikara nā te matapihi; ā, ka haere ia, ka rere, ka ora. 13 Nā, ka mau a Mikara ki tētahi whakapakoko, ā, whakatakotoria ana e ia ki te moenga, i whakatakotoria iho anō e ia tētahi urunga huruhuru koati ki tō tērā urunga, hīpokina iho ki te kākahu.
14 Ā, nō te tononga a Haora i ngā tāngata ki te tiki i a Rāwiri, ka mea tērā, “E mate ana ia.”
15 Nā, ka tono anō a Haora i ngā karere kia kite i a Rāwiri, ka mea, “Kawea mai ki ahau i runga i te moenga, kia whakamatea ia e ahau.” 16 Ā, i te taenga atu o ngā karere, nā, ko te whakapakoko i te moenga, me te urunga huruhuru koati i te wāhi ki tōna pane.
17 Nā, ka mea a Haora ki a Mikara, “Nā te aha koe i tinihanga nei ki ahau, i tuku nei i tōku hoariri kia haere, ā, mawhiti atu ana ia?”
Anō rā ko Mikara ki a Haora, “Nāna rā i kī mai ki ahau, ‘Tukua ahau kia haere; kia whakamate ahau i a koe hei aha?’ ”
Ka Haere a Rāwiri ki a Hamuera kei Rama
18 Heoi, ka rere a Rāwiri, ā, mawhiti atu ana; tae tonu atu ki a Hamuera, ki Rama, ā, kōrerotia ana ki a ia ngā mea katoa i mea ai a Haora ki a ia. Nā, ka haere rāua ko Hamuera, ā, noho ana rāua ki Naioto. 19 Ā, i kōrerotia te kōrero ki a Haora, “Ko Rāwiri tērā kei Naioto o Rama e noho ana.” 20 Nā, ka tono tāngata a Haora ki te hopu i a Rāwiri; nā, i tō rātou kitenga i te rōpū poropiti e poropiti ana, me Hamuera e tū ana hei tumuaki mō rātou, ka tau iho te Wairua o te Atua ki ngā tāngata a Haora, ā, poropiti ana hoki rātou. 21 Ā, nō ka kōrerotia ki a Haora, ka tono ia i ētahi atu tāngata, ā, ka poropiti anō rātou. Nā, ko te toru o ngā tononga tāngata anō a Haora, ā, poropiti ana anō hoki rātou. 22 Kātahi ka haere ko ia hoki ki Rama, ā, ka tae ki te puna nui i Heku; ā, ka ui ia, ka mea, “Kei hea a Hamuera rāua ko Rāwiri?”
Ka mea ko tētahi, “Nanā, kei Naioto o Rama.”
23 Nā, ka haere ia ki reira, ki Naioto o Rama; ā, ka tau iho te Wairua o te Atua ki a ia anō hoki; nā, ka haere ia, me te poropiti haere, ā tae noa ki Naioto o Rama. 24 Ā, i huia hoki e ia ōna kākahu, ā, poropiti ana anō ia i te aroaro o Hamuera; ā, takoto tahanga ana ia i taua rā katoa, me taua pō katoa. Nā reira tā rātou kupu, “Kei roto anō koia a Haora i ngā poropiti?”
