Kaiwhakariterite 10 - Maori Bible 2012(MRI2012)

Ko Tora me Haira

1Ā, i muri i a Apīmereke, ka whakatika ake hei kaiwhakaora mō Īharaira ko Tora tama a Pua tama a Roro, he tangata nō Ihākara; ā, i noho ia ki Hāmiri ki te whenua pukepuke o Ēparaima.

2Ā, e rua tekau mā toru ngā tau i whakarite ai ia mō Īharaira, nā, ka mate, ā, tanumia ana ki Hāmiri.

3Ā, i muri i a ia ka whakatika ko Haira Kireari, e rua tekau mā rua ngā tau i whakarite ai ia mō Īharaira.

4Nā, e toru tekau āna tama, e toru tekau anō ngā kūao kāihe i eke ai rātou, e toru tekau hoki ō rātou pā, e huaina nei ko Hawotohaira, ā tae noa ki tēnei rā; kei te whenua o Kireara.

5Nā, ka mate a Haira, ā, ka tanumia ki Kamono.

Ka Whakawhiua e ngā Āmoni

6Nā, ka mahi kino anō ngā tamariki a Īharaira ki tā Ihowā titiro, i mahi ki ngā Paara, ki te Ahataroto, ki ngā atua o Hīria, ki ngā atua o Hairona ki ngā atua o Moapa, ki ngā atua o ngā tamariki a Āmona, ki ngā atua o ngā Pirihitini; whakarērea ake e rātou a Ihowā, kīhai anō hoki i mahi ki a ia.

7Nā, ka mura te riri o Ihowā ki a Īharaira, ā, hokona atu ana rātou e ia ki te ringa o ngā Pirihitini, ki te ringa hoki o ngā tamariki a Āmona.

8Ā, i taua tau i kurua, i tūkinotia e rātou ngā tamariki a Īharaira; ā, tekau mā waru ngā tau i tūkinotia ai ngā tamariki katoa a Īharaira i tāwāhi o Horano, i te whenua o ngā Amori, i Kireara.

9Nā, ka whiti atu ngā tamariki a Āmona i Horano ki te whawhai anō hoki ki a Hūrā, ki a Pineamine, ki te whare hoki o Ēparaima, ā, taea rawatia iho te raru o Īharaira.

10Kātahi ka karanga ngā tamariki a Īharaira ki a Ihowā, ka mea, “Kua hara mātou ki a koe, kua whakarērea hoki e mātou tō mātou Atua, kua mahi hoki ki ngā Paara.”

11Ā, ka mea a Ihowā ki ngā tamariki a Īharaira, “Kāhore ianei koutou i whakaorangia e ahau i ngā Īhipiana, i ngā Amori, i ngā tamariki a Āmona, i ngā Pirihitini?

12I tūkino anō hoki ngā Haironi, ngā Amareki, rātou ko ngā Maoni i a koutou, ā, nō tā koutou tangihanga, ki ahau, ka ora koutou i ahau i roto i tō rātou ringa.

13Heoi, whakarērea ana ahau e koutou, ā, mahi ana koutou ki ngā atua kē; koia ahau tē whakaora ai anō i a koutou.

14Haere, karanga atu ki ā koutou atua i whiriwhiri ai; mā rātou koutou e whakaora i te wā o tō koutou hēmanawa.”

15Nā, ka mea ngā tamariki a Īharaira ki a Ihowā, “Kua hara mātou, māu e mea ki a mātou ngā mea katoa e pai ana ki tāu titiro; otiia whakaorangia mātou ināianei.”

16Nā, ka whakarērea e rātou ngā atua kē i roto i a rātou, ā, ka mahi ki a Ihowā; nā, ka kōingo tōna ngākau ki a Īharaira i mate nei.

17Nā, ka huihuia ngā tamariki a Āmona, ā, ka noho ki Kireara, i huihui anō ngā tamariki a Īharaira, ā, noho ana i Mihipa.

18Nā, ka mea te iwi rātou ko ngā rangatira o Kireara tētahi ki tētahi, “Ko wai te tangata hei tīmata i te whawhai ki ngā tamariki a Āmona? Ka waiho ia hei upoko mō ngā tāngata katoa o Kireara.”
