¹Zvino shoko raJehovha rakasvikazve kwandiri, richiti,

¹¶ I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,

²Ndokudiniko kana muchibata netsumo iyi panyika yaIsiraeri, muchiti, Madzibaba akadya mazambiringa anovava, meno avana ndokuhwadzira?

²He aha ra tenei whakatauki i whakataukitia ai e koutou mo te oneone o Iharaira? e ki na hoki koutou, I kai nga matua i nga karepe kaiota, a maniania ana nga niho o nga tamariki.

³Noupenyu hwangu, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha, Hamungagoni kuzobata netsumo iyi pakati paIsiraeri.

³E ora ana ahau, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, e kore koutou e whai take a muri ake nei ki te whakahua i tenei whakatauki i roto i a Iharaira.

⁴Tarirai, mweya yose ndeyangu; mweya wababa ndowangu, saizvozvo nomweya womwanakomanawo; mweya unotadza, uchafa.

⁴Nana, ko nga wairua katoa, naku; he pera i te wairua o te papa, naku ano hoki te wairua o te tama: ko te wairua e hara ana, ka mate tera.

⁵Asi kana munhu achinge akarurama, achiita zvomurayiro nezvakarurama,

⁵Ki te mea ia he tika tetahi tangata, a ka mahia e ia te mea e rite ana, e tika ana,

⁶asina kudya pamakomo, kana kutarira nameso ake kuzvifananidzo zveimba yavaIsiraeri, kana kuchinyira mukadzi wowokwake, kana kuswedera kumukadzi ari kumwedzi kwake,

⁶Ki te mea kihai ia i kai ki runga ki nga maunga, kihai ona kanohi i anga ake ki nga whakapakoko o te whare o Iharaira, ki te mea kihai i poke i a ia te wahine a tona hoa, a kihai ia i whakatata ki te wahine e paheke ana;

⁷asina kuitira vamwe zvakaipa, akadzosera rubatso rwake kuno wakatora chikwereti, asina kutora chinhu achipamba, akapa vane nzara zvokudya zvake, akafukidza akashama nenguvo;

⁷Ki te mea kihai tetahi tangata i tukinotia e ia, engari i whakahokia e ia tana taunaha ki te tangata i a ia nei ana moni, ki te mea kihai ia i tukino i tetahi, i pahua, ki te mea i homai e ia tana taro ma te tangata e hemokai ana, i hipokina e ia ki te kakahu te tangata e noho tahanga ana;

⁸asina kuita mhindu, kana kutora mhindu yemichero, akadzora ruoko rwake pazvakaipa, akaruramisa kwazvo pamhaka yomunhu nehama yake,

⁸Ko te tangata kahore ana mea i hoatu hei moni whakatupu, kahore hoki he hua i riro i a ia, ko te tangata i whakahokia e ia tona ringa i te kino, he pono ano tana whakawa mo tetahi, mo tetahi,

⁹akafamba nemitemo yangu, akachengeta zvandakarayira, kuti aite zvamazvokwadi; iye akarurama, zvirokwazvo achararama, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.

⁹I haere i runga i aku tikanga, i pupuri tonu i aku whakaritenga, i pono tonu te mahi; he tika tera, ka ora ia, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

¹⁰Kana iye akabereka mwanakomana riri gororo, kana muteuri weropa, kana anoita chimwe chezvinhu izvi,

¹⁰¶ Ki te whanau tetahi tama mana, he tahae, he kaiwhakaheke toto, a ka mahia e ia tetahi o enei mea,

¹¹asingaiti chinhu chimwe chaizvozvo zvakanaka, akadya pamakomo, akachinyira mukadzi wowokwake,

¹¹Ka kore ano e mahi i tetahi o enei mea pai, engari kua kai ki runga ki nga maunga, kua whakapoke i te wahine a tona hoa,

¹²akaitira varombo navanoshayiwa zvakaipa, akatora achipamba, asina kudzosera rubatso, akatarira zvifananidzo nameso ake, akaita zvinonyangadza,

¹²Kua tukino i te ware raua ko te rawakore, kua pahua kino, a kihai i whakahokia e ia te taunaha, kua anga ona kanohi ki nga whakapakoko, kua mahi hoki i te mea whakarihariha,

¹³akaita mhindu, kana kutora mhindu yemichero; ko iye achararama here? Haangararami. Akaita izvi zvose zvinonyangadza, zvirokwazvo achafa; ropa rake richava pamusoro pake.

¹³Kua hoatu i te moni whakatupu, kua tango i te hua: e ora ranei ia? E kore ia e ora: kua mahia e ia enei mea whakarihariha katoa; ko te mate kau mona; ki runga ano i a ia ona toto.

¹⁴Zvino, tarira, kana akabereka mwanakomana, anoona zvivi zvose zvababa vake, zvavakaita, akazviona hake, akasaita zvakadai;

¹⁴Na, ki te whanau tetahi tama a tenei, a ka kite ia i nga hara katoa i mahia e tona papa, a ka mahara, ka kore e mahi i te pena,

¹⁵asina kudya pamakomo, kana kutarira nameso ake zvifananidzo zveimba yavalsiraeri, kana kuchinyira mukadzi wowokwake,

¹⁵Kahore ia e kai ki runga ki nga maunga, kahore hoki ona kanohi e anga ki nga whakapakoko o te whare o Iharaira, kahore e whakapokea e ia te wahine a tona hoa,

¹⁶asina kuitira vamwe zvakaipa, asina kutora chinhu achireva rubatso, asingapambi noupambi, asi akapa vane nzara zvokudya zvake, nokufukidza akashama nechokufuka;

¹⁶Kahore ana tukino i te tangata, kahore e pupuri i te taunaha, kahore hoki ana pahua; engari e hoatu ana e ia tana taro ma te hemokai, e hipokina ana e ia ki te kakahu te tangata e noho tahanga ana,

¹⁷akadzora ruoko rwake pakuitira varombo zvakaipa, asina kutora mhindu kana mhindu yemichero, akaita zvandakarayira, nokufamba nemitemo yangu; iye haangafi nokuda kwezvakaipa zvababa vake, zvirokwazvo achararama.

¹⁷E whakahokia ana e ia tona ringa i te ware, kahore hoki e tango i te moni whakatupu, i nga hua ranei, e mahi ana i aku whakaritenga, e haere ana i runga i aku tikanga; e kore tera e mate mo te he o tona papa; he pono ka ora ia.

¹⁸Kana vari baba vake, zvavakamanikidza zvikuru, nokupamba zvinhu zvomunin'ina wake, akaita zvisina kunaka pakati pavanhu vake, tarirai, iye achafa nokuda kwezvakaipa zvake.

¹⁸Ko tona papa, i te mea i nui tana tukino, pahua rawa i tona teina, kihai hoki i pai nga mea i mahia e ia i roto i tona iwi, na, ka mate ia i runga i tona kino.

¹⁹Asi imwi munoti, Mwanakomana anoregereiko kuva nemhosva yezvakaipa zvababa vake? Kana mwanakomana achinge aita zvinorehwa nomurayiro nezvakarurama, akachengeta mitemo yangu yose, akaiita, zvirokwazvo achararama.

¹⁹Otira kei te mea koutou, He aha ra te tama te waha ai i te kino o te papa? Ki te mahia e te tama te mea e rite ana, e tika ana, a ka puritia e ia aku tikanga, ka mahia ano e ia, ina, ka ora ia.

²⁰Munhu anotadza, ndiye achafa; mwanakomana haangavi nemhosva yezvakaipa zvababa vake, nababa havangavi nemhosva yezvakaipa zvomwanakomana wavo; kururama kowakarurama kuchava pamusoro pake, nokuipa kowakaipa kuchava pamusoro pake.

²⁰Ko te wairua e hara ana, ko tera e mate. E kore te tama e waha i te kino o te papa, e kore ano te papa e waha i te kino o te tama: ko runga ano i a ia te tika o te tangata tika, a ko te kino o te tangata kino hei runga ano i a ia.

²¹Asi kana akaipa akatendeuka pazvivi zvake zvose zvaakaita, akachengeta mitemo yangu yose, akaita zvinorehwa nomurayiro nezvakarurama, zvirokwazvo achararama, haangafi.

²¹¶ Ki te tahuri ia te tangata kino i ona hara katoa i mahia e ia, a ka puritia e ia aku tikanga katoa, ka mahia ano e ia te mea e rite ana, e tika ana, ina, ka ora ia, e kore ia e mate.

²²Kudarika kwake kose kwaakaita hakungarangarirwi pamusoro pake; achararama nokuda kwezvakarurama zvaakaita.

²²E kore tetahi o ona he i mahia e ia e maharatia ki a ia; ka ora ia i tona tika i mahia e ia.

²³Ko ini ndingatongofarira rufu rwowakaipa here? Ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha; Handizinofarira kudzoka kwake panzira yake, ararame here?

²³He koanga ngakau ranei ki ahau te matenga o te tangata kino? e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa; he teka ranei ko ia kia tahuri mai i ona ara, kia ora?

²⁴Asi kana akarurama akatsauka pakururama kwake, akaita zvakaipa, akaita zvinonyangadza zvose zvinoitwa nomunhu akaipa, ko angararama here? Mabasa ake akarurama aakaita haangatongorangarirwi; nokuda kokudarika kwake, kwaakadarika nako, nezvivi zvake zvaakaita, achafa nokuda kwazvo.

²⁴Ki te tahuri atu ia te tangata tika i tona tika, ki te mahia e ia te he, a ka rite tana mahi ki nga mea whakarihariha katoa i mahia e te tangata kino, e ora ranei ia? e kore ana mahi tika katoa e maharatia; ka mate ia i runga i tona kino i kino ai ia, i runga ano i tona hara i hara ai ia.

²⁵Asi imwi munoti, Nzira yaIshe haina kuti tsurumete. Zvino chinzwai, imwi mhuri yavaIsiraeri, nzira yangu haina kuti tsurumete here? Ko nzira dzenyu hadzizi idzo dzisina kuti tsurumete here?

²⁵Heoi kei te mea na koutou, Kahore e taurite tonu te ara o te Ariki. Tena ra, whakarongo mai, e te whare o Iharaira, Kahore ranei toku ara e taurite? he teka ianei no koutou nga ara kahore e taurite?

²⁶Kana munhu akarurama akatsauka pakururama kwake, akaita zvakaipa, akafa nokuda kwazvo; achafa nokuda kwezvakaipa zvaakaita.

²⁶Ki te tahuri atu te tangata tika i tona tika, a ka mahi i te kino, mate iho ki reira; e mate ia mo tana kino i mahia e ia.

²⁷Uyezve, kana munhu akaipa akatsauka pazvakaipa zvake zvaakaita, akazoita zvinorehwa nomurayiro nezvakarurama, achaponesa upenyu hwake.

²⁷Tenei ano, ki te tahuri mai te tangata kino i tana kino i mahia e ia, a ka mahia e ia te mea e rite ana, e tika ana, ka ora ano i a ia tona wairua.

²⁸Zvaakarangarira, akatsauka pakudarika kwake kose kwaakaita, zvirokwazvo achararama, haangafi.

²⁸Nana hoki i whakaaro, a tahuri mai ana i ona he katoa i mahia e ia; ina, ka ora ia, e kore e mate.

²⁹Kunyange zvakadaro, vaIsiraeri vanoti, Nzira yaIshe haina kururama. Nhai, mhuri yavaIsiraeri, nzira dzangu hadzina kururama here? Hadzizi nzira dzenyu dzisakarurama here?

²⁹Heoi kei te mea te whare o Iharaira, Kahore e taurite te ara o te Ariki. Kahore ranei oku ara e taurite, e te whare o Iharaira? he teka ianei no koutou nga ara kahore e taurite?

³⁰Naizvozvo ndichakutongai, imwi mhuri yavaIsiraeri, mumwe nomumwe zvakafanira nzira dzake, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha. Dzokai, mutendeuke pakudarika kwenyu kose; kuti chirege kuva chigumbuso chezvakaipa kwamuri.

³⁰¶ Ae ra, ka rite ki tona ara, ki tona ara, taku whakawa i a koutou, e te whare o Iharaira, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, Ripeneta, tahuri mai hoki i o koutou he katoa, a e kore te he e waiho hei whakataka mo koutou.

³¹Rashai kure nemwi kudarika kwenyu kose, kwamakadarika nako, muzviitire moyo mitsva nemweya mitsva; nekuti muchafireiko, imwi mhuri yavaIsiraeri?

³¹Maka atu, kia matara atu i a koutou o koutou he katoa i he ai koutou; mahia hoki he ngakau hou, he wairua hou mo koutou; kia mate hoki koutou hei aha, e te whare o Iharaira?

³²nekuti handifariri rufu rwounofa, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha; naizvozvo tendeukai, murarame.

³²Kahore hoki ahau e ahuareka ki te matenga o te tangata e mate ana, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa; heoi tahuri mai koutou, kia ora ai.
