Te Kupu ki Harariha
1 “Tuhituhi atu hoki ki te anahera o te hāhi i Harariha:
“Ko ngā kupu āna, kei a ia nei ngā wairua e whitu o te Atua, me ngā whetū e whitu. Ka mātau ahau ki āu mahi, nā, he ingoa tōu, e ora ana koe, heoi, he tūpāpaku anō koe. 2 Kia mataara, whakaūkia ngā mea e toe nei, ka tata nei te mate; kāhore hoki ahau i kite i āu mahi kia tino rite ki te aroaro o tōku Atua. 3 Kia mahara rā ki te rironga o ngā mea i a koe, ki āu i rongo ai, ā, puritia, rīpenetā hoki. Nā, ki te kore koe e mataara, ka tae atu ahau ki a koe, ānō he tāhae; e kore hoki koe e mātau ki te hāora e tae atu ai ahau ki a koe.
4 “Tēnā anō kei a koe ētahi ingoa ouou nei i Harariha; kāhore nei i poke ō rātou kākahu. Ka hāereere tahi ēnā me ahau, he mā ngā kākahu; nō te mea he pai rātou. 5 Ko te tangata i a ia te wikitōria, ka whakakākahuria ia ki te kākahu mā; e kore anō hoki e ūkuia e ahau tōna ingoa i te pukapuka o te ora, ā, ka whakaaetia e ahau tōna ingoa ki te aroaro o tōku Matua, ki te aroaro anō hoki o āna anahera. 6 Ko te tangata he taringa tōna, kia rongo ia ki tā te Wairua e mea nei ki ngā hāhi.”
Te Kupu ki Pirarerepia
7 “Tuhituhi atu hoki ki te anahera o te hāhi i Pirarerepia:
“Ko ngā kupu ēnei a te tapu, a te pono, kei a ia nei te kī o Rāwiri, ko ia hei whakapuare, ā, kāhore tētahi hei tūtaki; māna hoki e tūtaki, ā, kāhore tētahi hei whakapuare. 8 E mātau ana ahau ki āu mahi. Nā, kua hoatu e ahau ki tōu aroaro he tatau puare, e kore nei e taea te tūtaki e tētahi. He kaha hoki tōu, he mea iti nei, kua puritia anō e koe tāku kupu, kāhore anō hoki koe i whakakāhore ki tōku ingoa. 9 Nā, māku e mea te hunga o te whakamenenga a Hātana, e mea nei he Hūrai rātou, ā, ehara, he teka hoki nā rātou; nā, māku rātou e mea kia haere mai, kia koropiko ki mua i ōu waewae, ā, kia mātau kua arohaina koe e ahau. 10 Nō te mea kua puritia e koe te kupu o tāku manawanui, waihoki ka puritia koe e ahau i te hāora o te whakamātautauranga, i taua hāora meāke nei puta ki te ao katoa, hei whakamātautau i te hunga e noho ana i te whenua.
11 “Ka hohoro tāku haere atu; kia mau ki tāu, kei tangohia tōu karauna e tētahi. 12 Ko te tangata i a ia te wikitōria, māku ia e mea hei pou i roto i te whare o tōku Atua, ā, e kore ia e haere atu i konā ki waho ā muri atu; māku hoki e tuhituhi ki runga ki a ia te ingoa o tōku Atua, te ingoa hoki o te pā o tōku Atua, o Hiruhārama hou, ka heke iho nei i te rangi i tōku Atua, me tōku ingoa hou anō hoki. 13 Ko te tangata he taringa tōna, kia rongo ia ki tā te Wairua e mea nei ki ngā hāhi.”
Te Kupu ki Raorikia
14 “Tuhituhi atu hoki ki te anahera o te hāhi i Raorikia:
“Ko ngā kupu ēnei a te Āmine, a te kaiwhakaatu pono, tika, a te tīmatanga o tā te Atua hanganga: 15 E mātau ana ahau ki āu mahi, ehara koe i te mātao, ehara koe i te wera. Ka pai ahau me i mātao koe, me i wera rānei. 16 Heoi, i te mea he mahanahana kau koe, ehara i te mātao, ehara i te wera, ka ruakina atu koe e ahau i roto i tōku māngai. 17 Nō te mea e kī ana koe, ‘Kua whai taonga ahau, kua tini āku rawa, kāhore hoki tētahi mea e matea ana e ahau.’ Kāhore hoki e mātau he waikorohuhū noa iho koe, he hē noa iho, he rawakore, he matapō, he mea kākahukore. 18 Ko tāku kupu tēnei ki a koe, kia hokona e koe i ahau he kōura kua oti te tahu ki te ahi, kia whai rawa ai koe; he kākahu mā hoki, hei kākahu ki a koe, kia kaua ai e kitea te whakamā o tōu tūnga kautanga; he rongoā hoki hei pani ki ōu kanohi, kia kite ai koe.
19 “Ko āku e aroha nei, ka rīria e ahau, ka whiua; nā, kia ngākau nui koe, rīpenetā hoki. 20 Nā, tēnei ahau te tū nei i te tatau, te pātukituki nei; ki te whakarongo tētahi ki tōku reo, ā, ka uaki i te tatau, ka tomo atu ahau ki a ia, hei hoa kai mōna, ko ia hoki hei hoa kai mōku.
21 “Ko te tangata i a ia te wikitōria, ka hoatu e ahau ki a ia kia noho ki tōku taha ki runga ki tōku torōna, pēnei me ahau i ahau nei te wikitōria, kua noho ki te taha o tōku Matua i runga i tōna torōna. 22 Ko te tangata he taringa tōna, kia rongo ia ki tā te Wairua e mea nei ki ngā hāhi.”
