Whakatauki 6 - Maori Bible 2012(MRI2012)

He Whakatūpato Anō

1E tāku tama, ki te mea ko tāu hei whakakapi mō tā tōu hoa,

ki te mea kua papaki tōu ringa mō te tangata kē,

2kua oti koe te māhanga e ngā kupu a tōu māngai,

kua mau koe i ngā kupu a tōu māngai.

3Meinga tēnei ināianei, e tāku tama, kia ora ai koe,

he mea hoki kua taka koe ki roto ki te ringa o tōu hoa:

haere, whakaiti i a koe, ā, ka tohe ki tōu hoa.

4Kei tukua iho te moe ki ōu kanohi;

kei tunewha ōu kamo.

5Whakaora i a koe ānō he anaterope i roto i te ringa o te kaiwhai,

ānō he manu i roto i te ringa o te kaihopu.

6Haere ki te pōpokorua, e te tangata māngere,

mātakitakina iho ōna ara, kia nui ai ōu whakaaro.

7Kāhore nei ōna kaitohutohu,

ōna kaitirotiro, ōna rangatira,

8heoi, e mahi kai ana māna i te raumati,

e kohikohi ana i te kai māna i te kotinga wīti.

9Kia pēhea ake te roa o tāu takoto, e te tangata māngere?

Āhea koe maranga ai i tāu moe?

10Kia iti ake nei te wāhi e parangia ai, kia iti ake nei te moe,

kia iti ake te kōtuinga o ngā ringa i a koe e takoto nā;

11nā, ka rite ki te kaipāhua te putanga mai o te mūhore ki a koe,

tōu rawakore, ānō he tangata he patu nei tāna.

12Ko te tangata kāhore ōna painga, ko te tangata hara,

e hāereere ana me te māngai tū kē;

13e whakakini ana ōna kanohi, e kōrero ana ōna waewae,

e tuhi ana ōna maihao;

14kei roto te whanokē i tōna ngākau,

e whakatakoto ana ia i te kino i ngā wā katoa;

e rui ana ia i te ngangare.

15Mō reira ka huaki tata te aituā ki a ia;

e kore e aha ka whatia ia, tē taea te rongoā.

16E ono ngā mea e kino ana ki a Ihowā;

āe rā, e whitu ngā mea e whakariharihangia ana e ia:

17ko te kanohi whakakake, ko te arero teka,

ko ngā ringa whakaheke i te toto harakore,

18he ngākau e whakatakoto ana i ngā whakaaro kikino,

he waewae e hohoro ana te rere ki te hīanga,

19he kaiwhakaatu teka e kōrero teka ana,

ko te tangata hoki e rui ana i te ngangare

ki waenganui i ngā tuākana, i ngā tēina.

20E tāku tama, puritia te whakahau a tōu pāpā,

kaua hoki e whakarērea te ture a tōu whaea.

21Kia mau tonu te tākai ki tōu ngākau,

heia ki tōu kakī.

22Ko tōu kaiārahi anō tērā ina haere koe;

māna koe e tiaki ina takoto koe;

ka kōrero mai anō ki a koe, ina ara koe.

23He rama hoki te whakahau, ā, he mārama te ture;

ko ngā riringa hoki, e whakaako ana, he ara ki te ora.

24Hei tiaki i a koe kei hē i te wahine kino,

i te whakapati a te arero o te wahine kē.

25Kei hiahia koe ki tōna ātaahua i roto i tōu ngākau;

kei mau anō koe i ōna kamo.

26Ko te tukunga iho o te tangata he wāhi taro, he mea mō te wahine kairau;

ko tā te wahine pūremu e whai ana ko te wairua utu nui.

27E taea rānei e te tangata te tango i te ahi ki roto ki tōna uma,

ā, e kore ōna kākahu e wera?

28E taea rānei e tētahi te haere i runga i ngā waro ratarata,

ā, e kore ōna waewae e hunua?

29Ka pērā anō te tangata e haere ana ki te wahine a tōna hoa;

e kore e kore ka whiua te tangata e pā ana ki a ia.

30E kore e whakahāweatia e te tangata te tāhae,

ki te tāhaetia e ia he mea e mākona ai tōna wairua ina hiakai ia.

31Otiia ki te kitea ia, kia takiwhitu āna e whakautu ai;

me hōmai e ia ngā rawa katoa o tōna whare.

32Ko te tangata e pūremu ana ki te wahine, kāhore ōna mōhio;

ko te tangata e pērā ana, kei te whakangaro ia i tōna wairua.

33He kaiākiko, he whakamā te wāhi mōna;

e kore anō tōna ingoa kino e horoia atu.

34He riri nui hoki nā te tangata te hae;

e kore anō e tohungia e ia i te rā rapu utu.

35E kore ia e manako ki tētahi utu;

e kore hoki e tatū tōna ngākau, ahakoa he nui āu hākari e tāpae ai.
