TSK · Ihaia 37:22

I patua ruruatia te raiona me te pea e tau pononga; a ka rite tenei Pirihitini kokotikore ki tetahi o raua; mona i whakatara ki nga ngohi a te Atua ora.

E taea ano e ahau te korero pena i a koutou; me i penei to koutou wairua me toku wairua, hono tonu aku kupu ki a koutou, ka ruru ano toku upoko ki a koutou.

Kia whakakitea katoatia ai e ahau ou whakamoemiti i nga tatau o te tamahine o Hiona: ka hari ahau ki tau whakaoranga.

¶ Na Rawiri. Ko Ihowa toku marama, toku whakaoranga; kia wehi ahau i a wai? Ko Ihowa te kaha o toku ora; ko wai e mataku ai ahau?

¶ Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi, ma nga tama a Koraha. He waiata Aramoto. Ko te Atua to tatou piringa, to tatou kaha; he kaiawhina e tino tata ana i nga wa o te he.

¶ E anga, ka whakatupu raruraru, e nga iwi, a ka pakaru rikiriki koutou; kia whai taringa hoki, e te hunga katoa o nga whenua i tawhiti; whitiki, a ka pakaru rikiriki koutou; whitiki, a ka mongamonga noa koutou.

I mea ano ia, Kati rawa tou koa, e te wahine e tukinotia nei, e te tamahine a Hairona: whakatika, whakawhiti atu ki Kitimi; ahakoa i reira kahore he okiokinga mou.

¶ Na me korero e koe tenei kupu ki a ratou, Kia hirere iho te roimata o oku kanohi i te po, i te ao, kaua hoki e mutu; no te mea he nui te pakaru i pakaru ai te tamahine a taku iwi, mamae rawa te patunga.

Ko te aha taku hei whakaatu ki a koe? ko te aha e waiho e ahau hei ahua mou, e te tamahine a Hiruharama? Ko wai e waiho e ahau hei rite ki a koe, e whakamarie ai ahau i a koe, e te tamahine wahine a Hiona? He nui hoki tou pakaru, koia ano kei te moana; ko wai hei rongoa i a koe?

Kua hinga te wahine a Iharaira; e kore ia e ara i muri: kua whakataka ia ki runga ki tona oneone; kahore he mea hei whakaara ake i a ia.

¶ Waiata, kia koa, e te tamahine a Hiona: no te mea na, kei te haere atu ahau, a ka noho ahau i roto i a koe, e ai ta Ihowa.

Mea atu ki te tamahine o Hiona, Na, ko tou kingi e haere mai na ki a koe, he ngakau mahaki tona, e noho ana i runga i te kaihe, i te kuao hoki, i te tama a te kaihe.
