1 Ā muri iho i ēnei mea ka kite ahau i tētahi atu anahera e heke iho ana i te rangi, he mana nui tōna; mārama tonu hoki te ao i tōna korōria.
2 He nui hoki tōna reo ki te karanga, ki te mea:
3 Nā te wāina hoki o te riri o tōna moepuku i horo ai ngā tauiwi katoa;
4 I rongo anō ahau i tētahi atu reo i te rangi, e mea ana:
5 Kua tutuki hoki ōna hara ki te rangi,
6 Hoatu ki a ia tāna i hōmai ai ki a koutou,
7 Nā, kia rite ki tāna whakanuinga i a ia,
8 Mō konei anō ka tae mai ōna whiu i te rā kotahi,
9 Ā, ko ngā kīngi o te ao i moepuku nei ki a ia, i tōrere ngātahi nei ki āna mea whakaahuareka, tērā e tangi ki a ia, e auē ki a ia, ina kite rātou i te paoa o tōna tahunga.
10 Ka tū mai rātou i tawhiti i te wehi ki tōna whakamamae, ka mea,
11 Ka tangi anō hoki ngā kaihoko o te whenua, ka auē ki a ia; nō te mea kāhore atu he tangata hei hoko i tā rātou utanga;
12 i te utanga o te kōura, o te hiriwa, o te kōhatu utu nui, o te peara, o te rīnena pai, o te pāpura, o te hiraka, o te kahu whero; me ngā rākau taina katoa, me ngā tini oko rei, me ngā tini oko rākau utu nui whakaharahara, oko parāhi, rino, mapere,
13 me te hinamona, me ngā mea kakara, me te hinu kakara, me te parakihe, me te wāina, me te hinu, me te parāoa pai, me te wīti, me ngā kararehe, me ngā hipi; me te utanga o ngā hōiho, o ngā hāriata, o ngā pononga; me ngā wairua tāngata.
14 “Heoi, ko ngā hua i matea nuitia e tōu ngākau kua mawehe atu i a koe, ā, kua mahue hoki koe i ngā mea reka katoa, i ngā mea papai, ā, heoi anō te kitenga o aua mea e te tangata.”
15 Ko ngā kaihoko o ēnei mea, kua whai taonga nei i a ia, ka tū mai rātou i tawhiti i te wehi ki tōna whakamamae, me te tangi, me te auē anō rātou,
16 me te kī:
17 Kotahi tonu hoki te hāora a mōtī rawa iho taua taonga nui.”
18 me te karanga anō rātou i tō rātou kitenga i te paoa o tōna tahunga, me te kī, “Ko tēhea pā i rite ki tēnei pā nui?”
19 Opehia ana hoki e rātou he puehu ki ō rātou māhunga, kei te karanga rātou, me te tangi, me te auē, kei te mea,
20 Kia hari ki a ia, e te rangi,
21 Kātahi, ka hāpaingia ake e tētahi anahera kaha he kāmaka i rite nei ki tētahi kāmaka rahi nō te mira, ā, makā ana e ia ki te moana, me te kī anō ia:
22 Nā, heoi anō, rongonga i roto i a koe ki te reo o ngā kaiwhakatangi hāpa,
23 E kore anō hoki e whiti i ngā wā i muri nei te mārama o te rama i roto i a koe;
24 I kitea anō hoki i roto i a ia ngā toto o ngā poropiti, o te hunga tapu,
