TSK · Roma 9:4

A ka waiho e ahau taku kawenata ki waenganui i a taua, ka tino whakanui rawa ano ahau i a koe.

Ko taku kawenata tenei hei whakaritenga ma koutou i waenganui oku, o koutou ko ou uri i muri i a koe; Me kokoti a koutou tane katoa.

A ka mea koe ki a Parao, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ko Iharaira taku tama, taku matamua:

Na ka piki a Mohi ki te Atua, a ka karanga a Ihowa ki a ia i te maunga, ka mea, Kia penei tau korero ki te whare o Hakopa, tau kauwhau hoki ki nga tama a Iharaira;

Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Mohi, Tuhituhia enei kupu: kei enei kupu hoki te tikanga o te kawenata e whakaritea nei e ahau ki a koe, ki a Iharaira.

A, i te haerenga o Mohi ki roto ki te tapenakara o te whakaminenga ki te korero ki a ia, na ka rongo ia ki te reo o tetahi e korero ana ki a ia i runga i te taupoki, i tera i runga i te aaka o te whakaaturanga, i waenganui i nga kerupima e rua: a ka korero ki a ia.

¶ Ko koutou nga tamariki a Ihowa, a to koutou Atua: kaua koutou e haehae i a koutou, kaua hoki e tiwhaina a waenganui o o koutou kanohi mo te tupapaku.

Na kahore ki a koutou anake taku whakarite i tenei kawenata, i tenei oati hoki;

Na huaina iho e ia te tama ko Ikaporo, i mea, Kua heke te kororia o Iharaira: no te mea kua riro te aaka a te Atua, mo tona hungawai hoki raua ko tana tahu.

I heke iho ano koe ki Maunga Hinai, a korero ana ki a ratou i runga i te rangi; homai ana e koe ki a ratou he whakaritenga tika, he ture pono, he tikanga pai, he whakahau.

Koia i titiro atu ai ahau ki a koe i te wahi tapu, kia kite ai i tou kaha, i tou kororia.

A tukua ana e ia tona kaha hei whakarau, tona kororia ki te ringa o te hoariri.

E kore taku kawenata e takahia e ahau, e kore ano e whakarereketia te mea i puta i oku ngutu.

E whakakitea ana e ia tana kupu ki a Hakopa; ana tikanga, me ana whakaritenga ki a Iharaira.

Ko koe, e Iharaira, ko taku pononga, ko Hakopa, ko taku i whiriwhiri ai, ko te uri o taku i aroha ai, o Aperahama;

E kore te ra e waiho i muri hei whakamarama mou i te awatea; na, ko te marama e tiaho nei, e kore tera e whakamarama i a koe; ko Ihowa hoki hei whakamarama mou ake ake, ko tou Atua hoki hei whakakororia i a koe.

He tamaiti matenui ianei a Eparaima naku? he tamaiti ahuareka ianei? no te mea ka korero ana ahau i te he mona, mau tonu toku maharahara ki a ia: no reira oku whekau i oho ai ki a ia; he pono ka tohungia ia e ahau, e ai ta Ihowa.

Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ki te taea e koutou te whakataka taku kawenata o te awatea, me taku kawenata o te po, kia kore ai he ao, he po, i o raua wa e tika ai;

¶ I a Iharaira e tamariki ana i aroha ahau ki a ia i reira, a karangatia ana e ahau taku tama i Ihipa.

Kua tautokona e ia a Iharaira, tana pononga, he whakamahara hoki ki tana mahi tohu;

Na Mohi hoki i homai te ture; ko te aroha noa me te pono i ahu mai i a Ihu Karaiti.

Ki a koutou hoki, ki a koutou tamariki, te kupu homai, ki te hunga katoa ano o tawhiti, ki nga mea e karangatia e te Ariki, e to tatou Atua, ki a ia.

Na he kauwhau tenei na maua ki a koutou i te rongopai, i korerotia i mua ki nga matua,

He teka hoki he wairua pononga kua riro nei i a koutou, e mataku ai ano koutou; engari kua riro i a koutou te Wairua e mea ana i a koutou hei tamariki ake, e karanga ai koutou, E Apa, e Pa.

I taua wa he mea motu ke atu koutou i a te Karaiti, ehara i te tangata whenua no Iharaira, he tangata ke ki nga kawenata o te mea i whakaaria mai i mua, kahore he tumanakotanga atu, he hunga Atuakore i te ao.

¶ Tena ko tenei he nui ke te mahi minita kua riro nei i a ia, he pai rawa hoki te kawenata ko tona takawaenga nei ko ia, he pai rawa hoki nga kupu whakaari, i whakatakotoria ai taua kawenata.

I tua atu hoki o te rua o nga arai, ko te tapenakara, e huaina ana ko te Wahi Tino Tapu.
