Hoani 2 - Te Kawenata Hou

Te Mārenatanga i Kana

¹ Nā, i te toru o ngā rā he mārena i Kana o Kariri, ā, i reira te whaea o Īhu.

² I karanga­tia anō a Īhu rātou ko āna ākonga ki te mārena.

³ Ā, i te paunga o te wāina, ka mea te whaea o Īhu ki a ia, “Kāhore ā rātou wāina.”

⁴ Ka mea a Īhu ki a ia, “E tai, he aha tāku ki a koe? Kāhore anō kia taea noatia tōku hāora.”

⁵ Ka mea tōna whaea ki ngā kai­mahi, “Ko tāna e mea ai ki a koutou, meatia.”

⁶ Nā, i reira ētahi ipu kōhatu e ono e tū ana, he tikanga nā ngā Hūrai mō te horoi, e rua, e toru ngā mēhua o tētahi, o tētahi, ina kī.

⁷ Ka mea a Īhu ki a rātou, “Whaka­kīa ngā ipu ki te wai.” Ā, whaka­kīa ana e rātou, pūrena noa.

⁸ Nā, ka mea ia ki a rātou, “Tēnā, utuhia, kawea atu ki te ranga­tira o te hākari.” Ā, kawea ana e rātou.

⁹ Ā, nō ka whaka­mātau te ranga­tira o te hākari i te wai i whaka­wāina­tia, ā, kīhai i mōhio nō hea rānei (ko ngā pono­nga ia i utuhia ai te wai i mōhio), ka karanga te ranga­tira o te hākari ki te tāne mārena hou,

¹⁰ ka mea ki a ia, “E whaka­takoto­ria ana e ngā tāngata katoa te wāina pai i te tīma­tanga; ā, ka roa te inu­manga, mō reira te wāina he iti iho nei te pai ko koe ia, kua tohu i te wāina pai mō nāia­nei.”

¹¹ I meatia tēnei tīma­tanga mere­kara e Īhu ki Kana o Kariri, i whaka­kitea e ia tōna korōria; ā, whaka­pono ana āna ākonga ki a ia.

¹² Muri iho i tēnei ka haere iho ia ki Kaperenauma, ā, ia, tōna whaea, ōna tēina, me āna ākonga; ā, kīhai i maha ngā rā i noho ai rātou ki reira.

Ka Haere a Īhu ki te Temepara

¹³ Nā, kua tata te Kape­nga o ngā Hūrai, ā, ka haere a Īhu ki Hiruhārama.

¹⁴ Nā, roko­hanga atu e ia i roto i te teme­para e noho ana ngā kai­hoko kau, hipi, kūkupa, me ngā kai­whaka­whiti­whiti moni.

¹⁵ Ā, ka hangā e ia he whiu ki ngā aho no­nohi, ka whiua katoa­tia e ia ki waho i te teme­para, ngā hipi, me ngā kau; ringi­hia ana hoki te moni a ngā kai­whaka­whiti­whiti moni, tura­kina ake ngā tēpu.

¹⁶ I mea anō ia ki ngā kai­hoko kūkupa, “Tango­hia atu ēnei i konei; aua te whare o tōku Matua e meinga hei whare hoko­hoko.”

¹⁷ Ā, ka mahara āna ākonga ki te mea i tuhi­tuhia, “Ka pau ahau i te aroha ki tōu whare.”

¹⁸ Nā, ka whaka­hoki ngā Hūrai, ka mea ki a ia, “He aha te tohu e whaka­kitea ana e koe ki a mātou, inā koe ka mea nei i ēnei mea?”

¹⁹ Nā, ka whaka­hoki a Īhu, ka mea ki a rātou, “Wā­wāhia tēnei whare tapu, ā, kia toru ngā rā ka ara anō i ahau.”

²⁰ Anō rā ko ngā Hūrai, “E whā tekau mā ono ngā tau i hangā ai tēnei whare tapu, e oti rānei te hanga e koe i ngā rā e toru?”

²¹ Otirā, ko te whare tapu o tōna tinana tāna i kōrero ai.

²² Nā reira, i tōna aranga ake i te hunga mate, ka mahara āna ākonga ki tāna kōrero­tanga i tēnei; ā, whaka­pono ana rātou ki te karaipi­ture, ki te kupu hoki i kōrero­tia e Īhu.

Te Mōhiotanga o Īhu ki te Āhua Tangata

²³ Nā, i a ia i Hiruhārama, i te Kape­nga, i te hākari, he toko­maha i whaka­pono ki tōna ingoa, i tō rātou kite­nga i āna mere­kara i meatia e ia.

²⁴ Otirā, kīhai a Īhu i tuku atu i a ia ki a rātou, i mōhio hoki ia ki ngā tāngata katoa.

²⁵ Ā, kāhore āna mea­tanga kia whaka­atu­ria te tangata e tētahi; i mātau hoki ia ki te mea i roto i te tangata.
