1 I kōrero anō a Ihowā ki a Mohi, i mea:
2 “Kōrero ki ngā tama a Īharaira, mea atu: Ki te hapū tētahi wahine, ā, ka whānau he tāne, nā, kia whitu ngā rā e poke ai ia; kia rite tōna pokenga ki ngā rā o tōna mate paheke.
3 Ā, i te waru o ngā rā ka kotia te kiri matamata o te tamaiti.
4 Ā, me noho te wahine ki te toto o tōna purenga, kia toru tekau mā toru ngā rā. Kaua ia e pā ki tētahi mea tapu, e haere rānei ki te wāhi tapu, kia taka rā anō ngā rā mō tōna purenga.
5 Ki te mea ia ka whānau he kōtiro, kia rua ngā wiki e poke ai, kia rite ki ō tōna paheketanga; ā, kia ono tekau mā ono ngā rā e noho ai ia ki te toto o tōna purenga.
6 “Ā, ka rite ngā rā mō tōna purenga mō te tama, mō te kōtiro rānei, me kawe mai e ia he reme, hei te tau tahi, hei tahunga tinana, me te pī kūkupa, me te kūkupa rānei, hei whakahere hara ki te whatitoka o te tapenākara o te whakaminenga, ki te tohunga.
7 Ā, māna e whakahere ki te aroaro o Ihowā, ā, ka meinga he whakamārie mōna; ā, ka kore ōna poke i te rerenga o ōna toto.
8 Ā, ki te kāhore e taea e ia i ōna rawa te kawe mai he reme, me kawe mai ngā kūkupa e rua, ngā pī kūkupa rānei e rua; ko tētahi hei tahunga tinana, ko tētahi hei whakahere hara; ā, mā te tohunga e whakamārie mōna, ā, ka kore ōna poke.”
