Ngā Hiperu 9 - Maori Bible 2012(MRI2012)

He Karakia nō te Whenua, he Karakia nō te Rangi

1Nā, ko te kawenata tuatahi he tikanga karakia anō ōna, me tētahi wāhi tapu, he mea nō te ao nei.

2I hangā hoki tētahi tapenākara, te tuatahi, i reira te tūranga rama, me te tēpu, me te taro aroaro, tōna ingoa ko te Wāhi Tapu.

3I tua atu hoki o te rua o ngā ārai, ko te tapenākara, e huaina ana ko te Wāhi Tino Tapu.

4He tahu kakara kōura i reira me te āka o te kawenata, he mea whakakikorua ngā wāhi katoa ki te kōura, i roto anō i taua mea ko te oko kōura i te mana, ko te tokotoko o Ārona i pihi rā, ko ngā papa o te kawenata.

5I runga atu i tēnei ko ngā Kerupima o te korōria, e whakamarumaru ana i te taumata o te whakamārietanga. E kore aua mea e taea te kōrero takitahi ināianei.

6Heoi, ka āta rite nei ēnei mea, ka hāereere ngā tohunga i ngā wā katoa ki te tapenākara tuatahi, i a rātou e mahi ana i ngā ritenga karakia;

7ki te tuarua ia kotahi anō te haerenga atu i te tau, o te tohunga nui anake, kīhai anō i mahue ngā toto; i tāpaea atu hoki mōna, mō ngā hē anō o te iwi.

8Ko tā te Wairua Tapu hoki tēnei i whakaatu ai, kīanō te huarahi ki te Wāhi Tino Tapu i whakakitea mai, i te mea e tū ana anō te tapenākara tuatahi.

9He āhua tērā mō tēnei wā nei, e tāpaea ai ngā whakahere me ngā patunga tapu, kāhore nei e tau hei mea i te tangata nāna tērā mahi kia tino tika te hinengaro;

10heoi anō o ērā he kainga, he inumanga, he horoinga maha, he tikanga nā te kikokiko, he mea whakarite mai, ā taea noatia te wā whakatikatika.

11I te taenga mai ia o te Karaiti hei tohunga nui mō ngā mea pai e whai mai ana i muri, he nui atu anō hoki, he tino tika te tapenākara, ehara i te mea hangā nā te ringaringa, arā ehara i te mea nō tēnei hanganga.

12Ehara anō hoki i te mea nō ngā koati ngā toto, nō ngā kūao kau rānei, engari nōna ake ngā toto i haere atu ai ia, kotahi tonu te haerenga, ki roto ki te Wāhi Tino Tapu, i te mea ka whiwhi ki tāna mea hei hoko mai i a tātou mō ake tonu atu.

13Ki te mea hoki mā ngā toto o ngā pūru, o ngā koati, mā ngā pungarehu rānei o te kūao kau, he mea tāuhiuhi ki te hunga kua poke, ka tapu ai, ka mā ai te kikokiko.

14Tērā atu tō ngā toto o te Karaiti, nāna nei i tāpae atu a ia anō, he mea kohakore, ki te Atua, i runga i tā te Wairua ora tonu; mā ērā e mā ai ō koutou hinengaro i ngā mahi mate, e mahi ai koutou ki te Atua ora.

15Mō konei anō ia i meinga ai hei Takawaenga mō te kawenata hou, kia mate ai ia hei utu mō ngā hē i raro i te kawenata tuatahi, kia riro ai i te hunga e karangatia ana te wāhi tūturu mō rātou i kōrerotia i mua.

16He ōhākī hoki, ko te mea e whai tikanga ai ko te matenga o te tangata nāna i whakatakoto.

17Kia mate hoki te tangata, kātahi ka whai mana te ōhākī; ka ū tonu rānei i te mea e ora ana te tangata nāna i whakatakoto?

18Koia hoki te mahue ai te toto i te whakatapunga o te kawenata tuatahi.

19I te mutunga hoki o tā Mohi kōrero i ngā tikanga katoa ki te iwi katoa, hei whakarite i tā te ture, ka mau ia ki ngā toto o ngā kūao kau, o ngā koati, ki te wai, ki te huruhuru whero, ki te hihopa, ā, tāuhiuhia ana e ia te pukapuka, me te iwi katoa;

20me tāna kī anō, “Ko ngā toto ēnei o te kawenata kua whakaakona mai nei e te Atua ki a koutou.”

21I tāuhiuhia anō hoki e ia ki ngā toto te tapenākara, me ngā oko katoa mō te mahi minita.

22I runga hoki i te ture, e tata ana ka kīia, e purea ana ngā mea katoa ki te toto; ki te kāhore hoki he ringihanga toto, kāhore he murunga hara.

Te Tāpaenga a Īhu, te Whakakāhore i te Hara

23Koia, i tika ai kia purea ki ēnei ngā ritenga o ngā mea i te rangi; ko ngā tino mea ia o te rangi ki ngā patunga tapu, pai rawa atu i ēnei.

24Ehara hoki i te mea kua tomo a te Karaiti ki te wāhi tapu i hanga e te ringaringa, ki te tauira o te tino wāhi; engari ki te tino rangi pū anō, puta ai ki te aroaro o te Atua, mō tātou.

25Ehara anō i te mea kia maha āna tāpaenga i a ia, kia pērā me te tohunga nui e haere nei ki roto ki te Wāhi Tino Tapu i tēnei tau, i tēnei tau, nō ētahi atu anō hoki ngā toto;

26pēnei kia maha he mamaetanga mōna, he mea tīmata i te hanganga rā anō o te ao. Tēnā ko tēnei, kotahi tonu tōna whakakitenga mai i te mutunga o ngā wā, hei whakakāhore i te hara, i a ia ka meinga hei patunga tapu.

27Nā, kua takoto nei te tikanga mō ngā tāngata kia kotahi tonu te matenga, ā muri iho i tēnei ko te whakawā;

28waihoki ko te Karaiti, kotahi tonu tōna tāpaenga atu hei pīkau i ngā hara o te tini, ā, tēnei ake ko te rua o ōna whakakitenga mai, kāhore anō he hara, hei whakaora i te hunga e tatari ana ki a ia.
