Deli

Ā, ka mea ia, “Heoi anō kīanga ko Hākopa tōu ingoa, engari ko Īharaira. Nō te mea kua tohe koe ki te Atua, ki te tangata hoki, ā, i a koe anō te mutunga.”

Nā, ka mea ia, “Tukua ahau, kua tākiri hoki te ata.” Ā, ka mea ia, “E kore koe e tukua e ahau, kia manaakitia rā anō ahau e koe.”

Ā, i mahue iho a Hākopa ko ia anake; ā, nōnoke ana rāua ko tētahi tangata, ā, tākiri noa te ata.

Nā, huaina ana e Hākopa te ingoa o taua wāhi ko Peniere, i mea hoki ia, “Mōku i titiro ki te Atua, he kanohi, he kanohi, ā, kei te ora nei ahau.”

Ā, nō te kitenga o tērā kīhai ia i taea e ia, ka pā ia ki te ateatenga o tōna hūhā; ā, ka takoki te ateatenga o te hūhā o Hākopa i a rāua e nōnoke ana.

Ā, ka mea ia, “Ko wai tōu ingoa?” Ā, ka mea ia, “Ko Hākopa.”

Nā, ka ui a Hākopa, ka mea, “Tēnā koa, kōrerotia mai tōu ingoa.” Anō rā ko ia, “He aha tōku ingoa i uia ai e koe?” Ā, ka manaaki ia i a ia i reira.

He iti rawa ahau, he nui āu arohatanga katoa, me te pono katoa hoki i whakaputaina mai e koe ki tāu pononga; i whiti mai hoki ahau me tōku tokotoko i tēnei Horano; ā, ka rua nei ōku rōpū.

Koia ngā tama a Īharaira tē kai ai i te uaua i memenge, arā i tērā i te ateatenga o te hūhā, ā tae noa ki tēnei rā. Nō te mea hoki i pā ia ki te ateatenga o te hūhā o Hākopa, ki te uaua i memenge.

Nā, ka mea a Hākopa, “E te Atua o tōku pāpā, o Āperahama, e te Atua o tōku pāpā, o Īhaka, e Ihowā, nāu nei te kupu ki ahau, ‘Hoki atu ki tōu whenua, ki ōu whanaunga hoki, ā, ka pai tāku mahi ki a koe.’

Tēnā rā, whakaorangia ahau i te ringa o tōku tuakana, i te ringa o Ēhau; e wehi ana hoki ahau i a ia, kei haere mai ia ki te patu i ahau, i te whaea rātou tahi ko ngā tamariki.
