I Manaakitia a Āperama e Merekihereke
1Nā, i ngā rā o Amarapera, kīngi o Hinara, o Arioka, kīngi o Eratara, o Keroraoma, kīngi o Erama, o Tirara hoki, kīngi o Koimi, 2ka whawhai ēnei ki a Pera, kīngi o Horoma, rātou ko Pīreta, kīngi o Komora, ko Hinapa, kīngi o Arema, ko Hemepera, kīngi o Tepoimi, ko te kīngi hoki o Pera, (arā o Toara). 3I huihui katoa ēnei ki te raorao i Hirimi, arā ki te Moana Tote. 4Kotahi tekau mā rua ngā tau i mahi ai rātou ki a Keroraoma, ā, i te kotahi tekau mā toru o ngā tau ka whakakeke rātou.
5Nā, i te tekau mā whā o ngā tau ka haere mai a Keroraoma, rātou ko ngā kīngi i whakauru ki a ia, ā, patua iho e rātou ngā Repaima i Ahateroto Karanaima, rātou ko ngā Tutimi i Hama me ngā Emime i Hawe Kiriataima, 6me ngā Hori i tō rātou maunga, i Heira, ā tae noa ki Ereparana, ki te taha o te koraha. 7Nā, ka hoki rātou, ā, ka tae ki Enimihipata, (arā ki Karehe), ā, patua katoatia ana e rātou te whenua o ngā Amareki, rātou ko ngā Amori i noho rā i Hatetonatamara.
8Nā, ka puta atu te kīngi o Horoma, rātou ko te kīngi o Komora, ko te kīngi o Arema, ko te kīngi o Tepoimi, me te kīngi o Pera, (arā o Toara) ā, ka tūria e rātou he pakanga ki a rātou ki te raorao i Hirimi 9Ki a Keroraoma, kīngi o Erama, ki a Tirara, kīngi o Koimi, ki a Amarapera, kīngi o Hinara, rātou ko Arioka, kīngi o Eratara, tokowhā ēnei kīngi, tokorima hoki ērā. 10Nā, kī tonu te raorao i Hirimi i te poka uku; nā, ka whati ngā kīngi o Horoma rāua ko Komora, ā, ka hinga ki reira; ā, rere ana ngā mōrehu ki te maunga. 11Nā, murua ana e rātou ngā taonga katoa o Horoma, o Komora, me ā rātou kai katoa, ā, haere ana. 12I mauria anō e rātou a Rota, te tama a te teina o Āperama, me ōna taonga, ā, haere ana; i Horoma hoki ia e noho ana.
Ka Whakaorangia a Rota e Āperama
13Nā, ka tae he mōrehu, ka kōrero ki a Āperama Hiperu; i te noho hoki ia i ngā oki o Mamere Amori, teina o Ehekora, he teina ia nō Anera. Kotahi anō tō rātou whakaaro ko Āperama. 14Ā, i te rongonga o Āperama, kua hereherea atu tōna irāmutu, tākiritia ana e ia āna tāngata mōhio, ngā mea i whānau ki tōna whare, e toru rau kotahi tekau mā waru, ā, whāia ana rātou ki Rāna. 15Nā, wāhia ana rātou ko āna tāngata kia rua ngā matua, hei whakaeke mō rātou i te pō, ā, patua ana rātou e ia, whāia ana, ā tae noa ki Hopaha, ki te taha ki mauī o Ramahiku. 16Ā, whakahokia mai ana e ia ngā taonga katoa, whakahokia mai ana anō hoki tōna irāmutu, a Rota, me ōna taonga, me ngā wāhine anō hoki, me ngā tāngata.
17Nā, ka puta mai te kīngi o Horoma ki te whakatau i a ia i tōna hokinga mai i te patu i a Keroraoma rātou ko ōna hoa, ko ngā kīngi ki te raorao o Hawe, (arā ki te Raorao o te Kīngi).
18Ā, i maua mai e Merekihereke, e te kīngi o Harema, he taro, he wāina; he tohunga anō hoki ia nō te Atua, nō te Runga Rawa. 19Nā, ka manaaki ia i a ia, ka mea,
“Kia manaakitia a Āperama e te Atua, e te Runga Rawa,
nōna nei te rangi me te whenua.
20Kia manaakitia anō te Atua, te Runga Rawa,
nāna nei i tuku mai ōu hoariri ki tōu ringa.”
Ā, ka hoatu e ia ki a ia ngā whakatekau o ngā mea katoa.
21Nā, ka mea te kīngi o Horoma ki a Āperama, “Hōmai ngā tāngata ki ahau, ko ngā taonga ia tangohia mōu.”
22Anō rā ko Āperama ki te kīngi o Horoma, “Kua totoro atu tōku ringa ki a Ihowā, ki te Atua, ki te Runga Rawa, nōna nei te rangi me te whenua; 23e kore ahau e tango ahakoa he miro, ahakoa he here nō te hū, i tētahi mea rānei āu, kei mea koe, ‘Nāku a Āperama i whai taonga ai.’ 24Kāti anō i a ngā taitama i kai ai, me te wāhi a ngā tāngata i haere tahi nei mātou – a Anera, rātou ko Ehekora, ko Mamere; mā rātou e tango te wāhi i a rātou.”
