Ka Whakakinotia a Īharaira

1“Nā, whakahuatia he tangi mō ngā rangatira o Īharaira,

2mea atu hoki:

‘He aha tōu whaea? He raiona uha;

i roto ia i ngā raiona e takoto ana,

ko āna kūao he mea whakatupu nāna

i roto i ngā raiona.

3Nā, atawhaitia ake ana e ia tētahi o āna kūao;

kua rahi.

Kua ako ki te hopu tūpāpaku māna;

kua kai tāngata.

4I rongo anō ngā iwi ki a ia;

i mau ia ki roto ki tā rātou poka.

Nā, kawea ana e rātou, mekameka rawa,

ki te whenua o Īhipa.

5“ ‘Nā, i tōna kitenga he tatari kau tāna

ā, kua kore tāna i tūmanako ai,

nā, ka mau ki tētahi atu o āna kūao,

meinga ana e ia hei kūao rahi.

6Nā, kei te hāereere tērā i roto i ngā raiona,

kua rahi.

Kua ako ki te hopu tūpāpaku māna;

kua kai tāngata.

7I mōhio anō ia ki ō rātou whare kīngi,

whakaururuatia ana e ia ō rātou pā;

mōtī iho te whenua me ōna tini mea

i te haruru o tōna hāmama.

8Kātahi ia ka whakaekea e ngā iwi o ngā kāwanatanga

i tētahi taha, i tētahi taha;

horahia ana e rātou he kupenga ki runga ki a ia;

kua mau ia ki roto ki tā rātou poka.

9Nā, ka tūtakina atu ia, mea rawa ki te mekameka,

ka kawea ki te kīngi o Papurōna.

I kawea ia ki ngā pā kaha,

kia kore ai tōna reo e rangona

i muri ki runga ki ngā maunga o Īharaira.

10“ ‘I rite tōu whaea ki te wāina, ōu toto nā anō,

he mea whakatō ki te taha o ngā wai.

He mea whai hua, he mea whai manga,

he maha hoki nō ngā wai.

11He peka kaha anō ōna

hei hēpeta mō ngā kīngi;

pūrero tonu rātou, roa tonu,

i roto i ngā manga pūruru,

i kitea atu rātou e pūrero ana,

me ōna manga maha.

12Otiia, i hūtia ia i runga i te āritarita,

makā iho ki te whenua,

maroke ake ōna hua i te hau marangai;

i whatiwhatiia ōna peka kaha,

maroke ake;

kainga ake e te ahi.

13Nā ināianei, kua oti ia te whakatō ki te koraha,

ki te whenua maroke, waikore.

14Ā, kua puta atu he ahi i roto i ngā peka o ōna manga,

pau ake ōna hua;

kore ake ōna peka kaha

hei hēpeta kīngi.’

He tangi tēnei, ka waiho anō hei tangi.”
