2 I aua ra i te tangi ahau, a Raniera, e toru nga tino wiki.

3 Kihai tetahi kai e minaminatia ana i kainga e ahau, kihai ano te kikokiko, te waina ranei, i tapoko ki toku mangai, a kihai rawa ahau i whakawahi i ahau a taka noa nga tino wiki e toru.

2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three whole weeks. 3 I ate no pleasant food. No meat or wine came into my mouth. I didn’t anoint myself at all, until three whole weeks were fulfilled.
