Mika1

¹Ko te kupu a Ihowā i puta mai ki a Mika Morahati i ngā rā o ngā kīngi o Hūrā, arā o Iotama, o Ahata, o Hetekia, ko tāna i kite ai mō Hamaria rāua ko Hiruhārama.

Ka Whakahuatia te Whakawātanga ki a Hamaria

²Whakarongo e ngā iwi, e koutou katoa;kia whai taringa mai, e te whenua,me ngā mea katoa i roto i a koe;ko te Ariki, ko Ihowā hei whakaatu i tō koutou hē,ko te Ariki mai i tōna temepara tapu.³Nō te mea, nanā, kei te puta mai a Ihowā i tōna wāhi,ka heke iho ia, ka takahi ki runga ki ngā wāhi tiketike o te whenua.⁴Ā, ka rewa ngā maunga i raro i a ia,ka ngātata ngā raorao,ka rite ki te wāki i mua i te ahi,ki ngā wai i ringihia ki te wāhi paripari.⁵Mō te hē o Hākopa, tēnei katoa,mō ngā hara o te whare o Īharaira.He aha te hē o Hākopa?He teka ianei ko Hamaria?He aha anō hoki ngā wāhi tiketike o Hūrā?He teka ianei ko Hiruhārama?

⁶“Mō reira ka meinga e ahau a Hamaria kia rite ki te pūranga o te māra,ki ngā whakatōkanga hoki o te māra wāina;ka ringihia iho anō e ahau ōna kōhatu ki raro ki te raorao,ā, ka hurahia e ahau ōna tūranga.⁷Ā, ka wāwāhia āna whakapakoko, mongamonga ana,ka tahuna hoki ōna utu katoa ki te ahi,ā, ka takoto kau i ahau āna whakapakoko katoa.He mea āmene hoki nāna ki te utu a te wahine kairau,ā, ka hoki atu anō hei utu ki te wahine kairau.”

Te Tarukitanga o ngā Pā o Hūrā

⁸Mō reira ka tangi ahau, ka auē,ka haere ahau, tīhore rawa ngā kākahu, tahanga kau;ka rite tāku tangi ki tā ngā kurī mohoao,tāku uhunga ki tā ngā otereti.⁹Nō te mea ko ōna patunga e kore e mahu;kua tae rawa nei hoki ki a Hūrā;kua tae ki te kūwaha o tāku iwi,arā ki Hiruhārama.¹⁰Kaua e whakaaturia ki Kāta,kaua rawa e tangi;kua okeoke ahau i roto i te puehui Pētere Āpara.¹¹Haere atu korua,e te wahine e noho ana i Hapiri,i te takoto tahanga, i te whakamā;kāhore anō te wahine e noho anai Taanana i puta mai;ka tangohia atu i a koutoue te tangihanga o Pete-Etere tōna tūranga.¹²I tatari hoki te wahine e noho ana i Maroto ki te pai,me te mānukanuka anō;nō te mea kua heke iho te kino i a Ihowāki te kūwaha o Hiruhārama.¹³Whakamaua te hāriata ki te hōiho tere,e te wahine e noho ana i Rakihi.Ko ia te tīmatanga o te harao te tamāhine a Hiona;kua kitea nā hokingā hē o Īharaira i roto i a koe.¹⁴Mō reira ka hoatu e koe he hākari poroporoakiki Morehetekata;hei mea teka ngā whare o Akatipiki ngā kīngi o Īharaira.¹⁵Tēnei ake ka kawea atu e ahau ki a koe,e te wahine e noho ana i Mareha,te tangata e whiwhi ki a koe;ka tae te korōria o Īharaira ki Aturama rā anō.¹⁶Moremorea tōu māhunga, kutikutia hoki,mō āu tamariki i āhuareka ai;whakanuia tōu pākira kia rite ki tō te ēkara;kua mawehe atu hoki rātou i a koe, kua whakaraua.
