Te Waiata a Tepora rāua ko Paraka

¹Nā, ka waiata a Tepora rāua ko Paraka tama a Apīnoama i taua rā, ka mea:²“Whakapaingia a Ihowā mō te takitakingaa ngā kaitakitaki o Īharaira,mō te hihikotanga mai o te iwi.

³“Whakarongo, e ngā kīngi, kia whai taringa, e ngā rangatira;māku, āe rā, māku e waiata ki a Ihowā,ka hīmene ahau ki a Ihowā, ki te Atua o Īharaira.

⁴“E Ihowā, i tōu putanga atu i Heira,i tōu haerenga atu i te pārae i Ēroma,i wiri te whenua,i māturuturu iho anō ngā rangi;i māturuturu iho anō hoki ngā wai o ngā kapua.⁵I rere ā-wai ngā maunga i te aroaro o Ihowā, ko taua Hinai anō hoki,i te aroaro o Ihowā, o te Atua o Īharaira.

⁶“I ngā rā o Hamakara tama a Anata,i ngā rā o Taere, i takoto kau ngā huarahi,i haere hoki ngā tira haere i ngā ara i tahaki.⁷I mutu rawa ngā rangatira o Īharaira,i kāhore rawa,ā, whakatika noa ake ahau, a Tepora,whakatika ake ahau, he whaea nō Īharaira.⁸I whiriwhiria e rātou he atua hou;kātahi ka puta he whawhai ki ngā kūwaha.I kitea rānei he pukupuku, he tao rānei,i roto i ngā mano e whā tekau o Īharaira?⁹Kei ngā kaiwhakatakoto tikanga o Īharaira tōku ngākau;i hihiko rātou ki te tuku i a rātou i roto i te iwi.Whakapaingia a Ihowā.

¹⁰“Kōrerotia, e ngā kaieke kāihe mā,e te hunga e noho ana i runga i ngā whāriki utu nui,e te hunga e haere ana i te ara.¹¹Mamao noa mai i te reo o ngā kaikōpere,i ngā wāhi utuhanga wai,ka kōrerotia e rātou i reira ngā mahi tika a Ihowā,ngā mahi tika o tāna whakahaere tikanga i roto i a Īharaira.“Kātahi te iwi o Ihowāka heke ki raro ki ngā kūwaha.¹²Maranga, maranga, e Tepora!Maranga, maranga, whakahuatia he waiata!Whakatika, e Paraka, ārahina tāu whakaraunga ki te whakarau,e te tama a Apīnoama.

¹³“Kātahi ka haere mai ki raro te mōrehu o ngā rangatira, me te iwi;i haere mai hoki a Ihowā ki raro mōku ki te whawhai ki te mea nui.¹⁴I puta mai i a Ēparaima te hunga ko tō rātou pakiaka nei kei a Amareke;kei muri i a koe, e Pineamine, i roto i ōu iwi;i haere mai ngā kaiwhakatakoto tikanga i roto i a Makiri;nō roto i a Hepurona ngā kaihāpai i te tokotoko a te kaiwhakahaere;¹⁵i a Tepora hoki ngā rangatira o Ihākara;he pērā a Ihākara; he pērā hoki a Paraka;huaki atu ana rātou i raro i ōna waewae ki te raorao.I ngā manga wai o Reupena,tērā ngā whakaaroaronga nunui o te ngākau.¹⁶He aha koe i noho ai ki ngā taiepa hipi,whakarongo ai ki ngā whakatangi mō ngā kāhui?I ngā manga wai o Reupena,tērā ngā rapurapunga nunui o te ngākau.¹⁷I noho a Kireara ki tērā taha o Horano;nā, ko Rāna, he aha ia i noho ai i runga i ngā kaipuke?Ko Āhera, whakakeke tonu mai i te takutai moana,ā, noho ana ia i te taha o ōna manga wai.¹⁸Ko Hepurona he iwi i whakahāwea ō rātou tinana ki te mate;rāua ko Napatari i ngā wāhi teitei o te pārae.

¹⁹“I haere mai ngā kīngi, i whawhai,nā, ka whawhai ngā kīngi o Kanaanaki Tānaka, ki te taha o ngā wai o Mekiro;kīhai tētahi moni i riro hei taonga mō i rātou.²⁰I whawhai iho rātou i te rangi;i whawhai ngā whetū i ō rātou huarahi ki a Hihera.²¹I kāhakina atu rātou e te awa, e Kihona,e taua awa tawhito, e te awa, e Kihona.E tōku wairua, haere tonu i runga i te kaha.²²Takatakahi ana i reira ngā pāua o ngā hōiho,nā ngā pekenga, nā ngā tūpeketanga a ō rātou mārohirohi.²³‘Kangā a Meroho,’ e ai tā te anahera a Ihowā;‘kangā kinotia ngā tāngata o reira;mō rātou kīhai i haere mai hei āwhina mō Ihowā,hei āwhina mō Ihowā ki te whawhai ki te hunga nunui.’

²⁴“Kia manaakitia i roto i ngā wāhine a Taerewahine a Hēpere Keni;kia manaakitia i roto i ngā wāhine o te tēneti.²⁵I tonoa e tuahangata he wai mōna, he waiū tāna i hoatu ai,kawea ana e ia he pata i roto i te peihana rangatira.²⁶Totoro atu ana tōna ringa ki te tititōna matau ki te hama a ngā kaimahi;hama iho e ia a Hihera,ākina iho tōna pane;titia iho hoki e ia tōna rahirahinga ā puta rawa.²⁷Kūpapa ana ia ki ōna waewae,hinga ana, takoto ana;i kūpapa ia, i hinga, ki ōna waewae;ko te wāhi i kūpapa ai ia,hinga ana ia i reira, mate rawa.

²⁸“I titiro mai te whaea o Hihera i te matapihi,i karanga hoki i te wini whakakahokaho,‘Nā te aha i roa ai te haere mai o tana hāriata?Nā te aha i pūhoi ai ngā wīra o ana hāriata?’²⁹Ka utua e ngā mea mōhio o āna wāhine rangatira;āe, ko ia anō hei whakahoki ake i te kupu ki a ia anō,³⁰‘Kāhore rānei rātou i tūpono atu, i wehewehe i ngā taonga?He kōtiro, tokorua ngā kōtiro ki tērā, ki tērā;he taonga kōtingotingo tō Hihera,he taonga kōtingotingo, he mea whatu ki te ngira,he mea kōtingotingo, he mea whatu ki te ngira i tētahi taha, i tētahi taha,mō ngā kakī o te hunga i te taonga parakete?’

³¹“Kia pēnā te whakangaromanga o ōu hoariri katoa, e Ihowā.Kia rite ia te hunga e aroha ana ki a ia ki te rāi tōna putanga kaha mai.”Nā, e whā tekau ngā tau i okioki ai te whenua.
