Ko te Pukapuka a
Heremaia
1
1 Ko ngā kupu a Heremaia tama a Hirikia, ko ia nei tētahi o ngā tohunga i Anatoto i te whenua o Pineamine. 2 I puta nei ki a ia te kupu a Ihowā i ngā rā o Hōhia tama a Amono, kīngi o Hūrā, i te tekau mā toru o ngā tau o tōna kīngitanga. 3 I puta anō hoki i ngā rā o Iehoiakimi tama a Hōhia kīngi o Hūrā, ā taka noa te tekau mā tahi o ngā tau o Terekia tama a Hōhia kīngi o Hūrā, taea noatia te whakaraunga o Hiruhārama i te rima o ngā marama.
Te Karanga me te Whakaritenga o Heremaia
4 Nā, i puta te kupu a Ihowā ki ahau, i mea,
5 “Kīanō koe i hangā e ahau i roto i te kōpū,
kua mōhio ahau ki a koe,
ā, kīanō koe i puta mai i te puku,
kua whakatapua koe e ahau;
kua whakaritea koe e ahau hei poropiti ki ngā iwi.”
6 Nā, ka mea ahau, “Auē, e Ihowā, e te Atua, nanā, kāhore e taea e ahau te kōrero, he tamariki nei hoki ahau.”
7 Anō rā ko Ihowā ki ahau, “Kaua e mea, ‘He tamariki ahau.’ Nō te mea, ahakoa ko wai te hunga e ungā atu ai koe e ahau, me haere tonu koe, me kōrero hoki e koe ngā mea katoa e whakahaua e ahau ki a koe. 8 Kaua e wehi i a rātou; kei a koe hoki ahau hei whakaora i a koe,” e ai tā Ihowā.
9 Nā, ka totoro mai te ringa o Ihowā, ā, ka pā ki tōku māngai; ā, ka mea a Ihowā ki ahau, “Nanā, kua hoatu nei e ahau āku kupu ki tōu māngai. 10 Titiro, nō tēnei rā i meinga ai koe e ahau hei whakatakoto tikanga ki ngā iwi, ki ngā kīngitanga, hei unu atu, hei wāhi iho, hei whakangaro, hei turaki iho, hei hanga, hei whakatō.”
11 I puta mai anō te kupu a Ihowā ki ahau, i mea, “He aha te mea e kite nā koe, e Heremaia?”
Anō rā ko ahau, “He peka aramona tāku e kite nei.”
12 Anō rā ko Ihowā ki ahau, “Ka pai tāu tirohanga atu; nō te mea ka tirohia e ahau tāku kupu, ka mahia.”
13 Nā, ko te rua o ngā putanga mai o te kupu a Ihowā ki ahau; i mea ia, “He aha te mea e kite nā koe?”
Anō rā ko ahau, “He kōhua e koropupū ana tāku e kite nei, ā, ko tōna mata e anga mai ana i te raki.”
14 Nā, ka mea a Ihowā ki ahau: “Ka puta mai i te raki he kino mō ngā tāngata katoa o te whenua. 15 Tēnei hoki ahau te karanga nei ki ngā hapū katoa o ngā kīngitanga o te raki,” e ai tā Ihowā.
“Ā, ka haere mai rātou, ka whakatū i tōna torōna,
i tōna torōna, ki te tomokanga i ngā kūwaha o Hiruhārama,
ki ōna taiepa katoa, ā, karapoi noa,
ki ngā pā katoa anō o Hūrā.
16 Ka puaki anō i ahau āku whakawākanga
ki a rātou mō ō rātou kino katoa;
mō rātou i whakarere i ahau,
i tahu whakakakara ki ngā atua kē,
i koropiko ki ngā mahi a ō rātou ringa.
17 “Nā, ko koe, whītikiria tōu hope, whakatika, kōrerotia ki a rātou ngā mea katoa e whakahaua e ahau ki a koe. Aua e wehi i a rātou, kei meinga koe e ahau kia numinumi kau ki tō rātou aroaro. 18 Nō te mea hoki kua meinga koe e ahau i tēnei rā hei pā taiepa, hei pou rino, hei taiepa parāhi ki te whenua katoa, ki ngā kīngi o Hūrā, ki ōna rangatira, ki ōna tohunga, ki te iwi anō o te whenua. 19 Ā, ka whawhai rātou ki a koe, otirā e kore koe e taea e rātou; nō te mea kei a koe ahau,” e ai tā Ihowā, “hei whakaora i a koe.”
