1Ko te kupu a Ihowā i puta ki a Hōhea tama a Peeri i ngā rā o ngā kīngi o Hūrā, arā o Utia, o Iotama, o Ahata, o Hetekia, i ngā rā hoki o Ieropoama, tama a Ioaha kīngi o Īharaira.
Te Wahine me ngā Tamariki a Hōhea2I te kōrerotanga ai a Ihowā i te tuatahi, he mea kōrero nā Hōhea, i mea a Ihowā ki a Hōhea, “Haere, tangohia tētahi wahine māu, he mea kairau, ētahi tamariki anō, he mea nā te kairau. He nui hoki te kairautanga i kairau ai te whenua i te mea ka whakarērea nei a Ihowā.”
3Nā, haere ana ia, tīkina ana e ia a Kōmere tamāhine a Ripiraima; nā, kua hapū tērā, kua whānau tā rāua tama.
4Nā, ka mea a Ihowā ki a ia, “Huaina tōna ingoa, ko Ietereere; nō te mea tēnei ake, he wā poto nei, ka rapu utu ahau mō te toto o Ietereere i te whare o Iehu, ka whakamutua anō e ahau te kīngitanga o te whare o Īharaira.
5I taua rā, ka whati i ahau te kōpere a Īharaira ki te raorao o Ietereere.”
6Nā, kua hapū anō ia, whānau ake he tamāhine. Ā, ka mea a Ihowā ki a ia, “Huaina tōna ingoa, ko Roruhama; nō te mea e kore e atawhaitia e ahau te whare o Īharaira ā muri ake nei, e murua rānei e ahau tētahi wāhi a rātou.
7Engari te whare o Hūrā ka atawhaitia e ahau, ka meinga anō e ahau a Ihowā, tō rātou Atua, hei whakaora i a rātou; e kore e meinga e ahau te kōpere, te hoari, te whawhai, ngā hōiho, ngā kaieke hōiho rānei hei whakaora i a rātou.”
8Ā, ka whakamutua e ia tā Roruhama kai ū, ka hapū ia, ā, whānau ake he tama.
9Nā, ka mea a Ihowā, “Huaina tōna ingoa ko Roami; ehara hoki koutou i te iwi nāku, ehara anō hoki ahau i te Atua nō koutou.”
Kia Whakahokia a Īharaira10“Ka rite anō ia te tokomaha o ngā tama a Īharaira ki te onepū o te moana e kore nei e mēhuatia, e kore e tāua. Nā, i te wāhi i kōrerotia ai ki a rātou, ‘Ehara koutou i te iwi nāku,’ ko reira anō te kupu ki a rātou, ‘He tama koutou nā te Atua ora.’
11Ko reira anō ngā tama a Hūrā rātou ko ngā tama a Īharaira huihui ngātahi ai, whiriwhiri ai i te upoko kotahi mō rātou, ka haere mai anō rātou i te whenua; nō te mea he nui te rā o Ietereere.”
