TSK · Ruka 21:6

Katahi o ratou pakiaka ka unuhia ake e ahau i toku oneone i hoatu nei e ahau ki a ratou; katahi tenei whare i whakatapua nei e ahau mo toku ingoa, ka akiritia atu e ahau i toku aroaro, a ka meinga hei whakatauki, hei taunutanga i roto i nga iwi katoa.

Ki ta koutou titiro kua waiho koia hei ana mo nga kaipahua tenei whare kua huaina nei ki toku ingoa? Nana, kua kite ahau, ahau nei ano, e ai ta Ihowa.

He aha koe i poropiti ai i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa, i ki ai, Ka rite tenei whare ki Hiro, ka ururuatia tenei pa, te ai he tangata hei noho? Na, i te huihui te iwi katoa ki a Heremaia, ki te whare o Ihowa.

Kua takiritia e ia tona tihokahoka, ano no te kari: moti iho i a ia tona wahi whakaminenga: kua meinga e Ihowa te huihui nui me te hapati kia warewaretia i roto i Hiona, whakahaweatia iho e ia te kingi raua ko te tohunga i tona riri e aritarita a na.

Na te maunga hoki o Hiona kua ururuatia nei, e haereerea nei e nga pokiha.

A, ka taka aua wiki e ono tekau ma rua, ka hatepea atu te mea i whakawahia, a kahore he mea mana; a ka whakangaromia te pa me te wahi tapu e te iwi o te rangatira ka haere mai nei; a he waipuke kei tona mutunga, a he whawhai taea noatia te mutun ga; kua takoto hoki nga whakangaromanga.

¶ Whakatuwheratia, ou kuwaha, e Repanona, kia kai ai te ahi i ou hita.

Otira ka mea ia ki a ratou, Kahore ianei koutou e kite i enei mea katoa? He pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, E kore e toe ki konei tetahi kohatu ki runga ake i tetahi kohatu, engari ka whakahoroa katoatia.

A ka whakahoroa koe ki raro, me au tamariki i roto i a koe; e kore ano e waiho tetahi kamaka i runga i tetahi kamaka i roto i a koe; no te mea kihai koe i matau ki te wa i tirohia ai koe.
