TSK · Ruka 1:13

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.

He pakeke rawa ranei tetahi mea ki a Ihowa? Kei te taima i whakaritea, kei te hurihanga mai o te wa, ka hoki mai ahau ki a koe, a ka whai tamaiti a Hara.

Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a ia, Kia tau te rangimarie ki a koe; kaua e wehi: e kore koe e mate.

Na, ka taka nga ra, ka hapu a Hana, a ka whanau he tama; a huaina iho e ia tona ingoa ko Hamuera, i mea hoki, No te mea i inoia ia e ahau i a Ihowa.

Na ka mea ia, Kei tenei wa, kia taka mai ano te wa, ka awhi koe i te tama. Ano ra ko tera, Kaua, e toku ariki, e te tangata a te Atua, kaua e teka ki tau pononga wahine.

Ka whakamoemiti ahau ki a koe, mou i whakahoki kupu mai ki ahau, kua meinga hoki ko koe hei whakaora moku.

Na ko taku haerenga atu ki te poropiti wahine, kua hapu, whanau ake he tama. Katahi a Ihowa ka ki mai ki ahau, Huaina tona ingoa ko Mahereharara Hapaha.

Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a ia, Huaina tona ingoa, ko Ietereere; no te mea tenei ake, he wa poto nei, ka rapu utu ahau mo te toto o Ietereere i te whare o Iehu, ka whakamutua ano e ahau te kingitanga o te whare o Iharaira.

Na ka mea a Ihowa, Huaina tona ingoa ko Roami: ehara hoki koutou i te iwi naku, ehara ano hoki ahau i te Atua no koutou.

Na kua hohoro te korero a Ihu ki a ratou, te mea, Kia manawanui, ko ahau tenei; aua e wehi.

A ka mea ia ki a ratou, Kaua e koera: e rapu ana koutou i a Ihu o Nahareta i ripekatia: kua ara ia; kahore ia i konei: tena! titiro ki te wahi i whakatakotoria ai ia!

Na ka whakahoki tona whaea, ka mea, Kahore; engari me hua ia ko Hoani.

¶ A, i a raua e korero ana i enei mea, na tera ia tu ana i waenganui o ratou, mea ana ki a ratou, Kia tau te rangimarie ki a koutou.
