Whakakitenga 14

Te Reme me Ōna Hoa

1 Ā, i kite anō ahau, nā, ko te Reme e tū ana i Maunga Hiona, kotahi rau e whā tekau mā whā mano ōna hoa, ko tōna ingoa, me te ingoa o tōna Matua, he mea tuhituhi ki ō rātou rae. 2 Nā, ka rongo ahau i te reo i te rangi, tōna rite kei te haruru o ngā wai maha, kei te haruru anō o te whatitiri nui; ā, ko te reo i rongo ai ahau, ānō ko te reo o ngā kaiwhakatangi hāpa e whakatangi ana i ā rātou hāpa; 3 ā, ko tā rātou waiata me te mea he waiata hou i mua i te torōna, i mua hoki i ngā mea ora e whā, i ngā kaumātua anō hoki. E kore hoki e taea e tētahi te ako taua waiata, ko ngā mano anake kotahi rau e whā tekau mā whā, kua oti nei te hoko i runga i te whenua. 4 Ko te hunga tēnei kāhore nei i poke i te wahine; he wāhina hoki rātou. Ko te hunga tēnei e aru ana i te Reme ki ngā wāhi katoa e haere ai ia. He mea hoko ēnei i roto i ngā tāngata, he mātāmua ki te Atua, ki te Reme hoki. 5 Kāhore hoki he tinihanga i mau i ō rātou māngai; he kohakore rātou.
