Te Whānautanga mai o Hamahona
1 Nā, ka mahi kino anō ngā tamariki a Īharaira i te tirohanga a Ihowā, ā, ka hoatu rātou e Ihowā ki te ringa o ngā Pirihitini, e whā tekau tau.
2 Nā, ko tētahi tangata o Toraha nō te hapū o ngā Rāni, tōna ingoa ko Manoa, he pākoko hoki tāna wahine, kāhore anō i whānau tamariki. 3 Nā, ka puta te anahera a Ihowā ki te wahine, ka mea ki a ia, “Nā, he pākoko koe, kāhore hoki i whānau tamariki; otiia ka hapū koe, ā, ka whānau he tama. 4 Nā, kia tūpato, kaua e inumia he wāina, he wai whakahaurangi rānei; kaua anō e kainga tētahi mea poke. 5 Nō te mea ka hapū koe, ā, ka whānau he tama; nā, kaua he heu e pā ki tōna mātenga; hei Natari hoki tēnā tamaiti ki te Atua nō te kōpū mai anō; ā, māna e tīmata te whakaora i a Īharaira i roto i te ringa o ngā Pirihitini.”
6 Nā, haere ana te wahine, kōrero ana ki tāna tahu, ka mea, “Ko te tangata rā a te Atua i puta mai nei ki ahau, tōna āhua kei te āhua o te anahera a te Atua; nui rawa te wehi; heoi kīhai ahau i ui nō hea ia, kīhai anō i kōrerotia mai e ia tōna ingoa ki ahau. 7 Otiia i kī mai ia ki ahau, ‘Ka hapū koe, ā, ka whānau he tama. Nā, kaua koe e inu i te wāina, i te wai whakahaurangi rānei, kaua anō hoki e kainga tētahi mea poke; he Natari hoki tēnā tamaiti ki te Atua nō te kōpū mai anō ā mate noa.’ ”
8 Nā, ka īnoi a Manoa ki a Ihowā, ka mea, “Tēnā rā, e tōku Ariki, kia haere mai anō ki a māua te tangata a te Atua i tonoa mai nā e koe, hei whakaatu i tētahi tikanga ki a māua mō te tamaiti ka whānau nei.”
9 Ā, i rongo te Atua ki te reo o Manoa, ā, ka haere mai anō te anahera a te Atua ki te wahine i a ia e noho ana i te pārae; ko Manoa ia, ko tāna tahu, kāhore i a ia. 10 Nā, hohoro tonu te wahine, oma ana, kōrero ana ki tāna tahu, ka mea ki a ia, “Nanā, kua puta ki ahau te tangata i haere mai rā ki ahau i tērā rā.”
11 Nā, ka whakatika a Manoa, ā, aru ana i tāna wahine, ā, ka tae ki taua tangata, ka mea ki a ia, “Ko koe rānei te tangata i kōrero rā ki te wahine nei?”
Ka mea ia, “Āe, ko ahau.”
12 Nā, ka mea a Manoa, “Kia mana rā tāu kupu. Tēnā koa ngā tikanga mō te tamaiti, he aha he mahi māna?”
13 Ka mea te anahera a Ihowā ki a Manoa, “Kia tūpato te wahine i ngā mea katoa i kōrero ai ahau ki a ia. 14 Kaua ia e kai i tētahi mea i puta mai i te wāina; kaua anō e inumia e ia he wāina, he wai whakahaurangi rānei, kaua anō hoki ia e kai i tētahi mea poke. Kia mau ia ki ngā mea katoa i kīia atu e ahau ki a ia.”
15 Nā, ka mea a Manoa ki te anahera a Ihowā, “Me pupuri māua i a koe, kia takā ai e māua he kūao koati māu.”
16 Ka mea te anahera a Ihowā ki a Manoa, “Ahakoa pupuri noa koe i ahau, e kore ahau e kai i tāu taro; ā, ki te meatia e koe he tahunga tinana, me whakaeke mā Ihowā.” Kīhai hoki a Manoa i mōhio he anahera ia nā Ihowā.
17 Nā, ka mea a Manoa ki te anahera a Ihowā, “Ko wai tōu ingoa, kia whakahōnore ai māua i a koe, ina mana āu kōrero?”
18 Ka mea te anahera a Ihowā ki a ia, “He aha tōku ingoa i uia ai e koe; he mea whakamīharo nei hoki?” 19 Heoi, ka tīkina e Manoa tētahi kūao koati, me tētahi whakahere totokore, ā, whakaekea ana e ia ki runga ki te kāmaka ki a Ihowā. Nā, he mea whakamīharo te mahi a taua anahera, me te titiro anō a Manoa rāua ko tāna wahine. 20 I te putanga ake hoki o te mura i runga i te āta whaka te rangi, nā, kua kake atu te anahera a Ihowā i roto i te mura o te āta. Ā, i te kitenga o Manoa rāua ko tāna wahine, tāpapa ana rāua ki te whenua. 21 Kīhai ia i puta mai anō te anahera a Ihowā ki a Manoa rāua ko tāna wahine. Kātahi a Manoa ka mōhio he anahera ia nā Ihowā.
22 Nā, ka mea a Manoa ki tāna wahine, “Ka mate rawa tāua; kua kite hoki tāua i te Atua.”
23 Anō rā ko tāna wahine ki a ia, “Me i pai a Ihowā ki te whakamate i a tāua, kīhai i tangohia e ia te tahunga tinana me te whakahere totokore i ō tāua ringa, kīhai anō hoki i whakakitea mai e ia ēnei mea katoa ki a tāua, kīhai hoki i kōrerotia mai ināianei ki a tāua ngā mea pēnei i ēnei.”
24 Nā, ka whānau taua wahine, he tama, ā, huaina ana e ia tōna ingoa ko Hamahona; nā, ka tupu taua tamaiti, ā, ka manaakitia e Ihowā. 25 Nā, ka tīmata te Wairua o Ihowā te whakaohooho i a ia i te puni o Rāna, i te takiwā o Toraha, o Ehetaoro.
