9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
1A, i a Rawiri e noho ana i tona whare, ka mea a Rawiri ki a Natana poropiti, Na kei te noho ahau ki te whare hita, ko te aaka ia o te kawenata a Ihowa kei raro i te arai kakahu e noho ana.
2Ano ra ko Natana ki a Rawiri, Meatia nga mea katoa i tou ngakau; kei a koe hoki te Atua.
3Na i taua po ka puta te kupu a te Atua ki a Natana, ka mea,
4Haere, mea atu ki taku pononga, ki a Rawiri, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Kaua e hanga e koe he whare hei nohoanga moku:
5Kahore nei hoki ahau i noho i roto i te whare, o te rangi i kawea mai ai e ahau a Iharaira a taea noatia tenei ra; heoi he noho haere toku i tetahi teneti ki tetahi teneti, i tetahi tapenakara ki tetahi tapenakara.
6I oku haereerenga katoa i roto i a Iharaira katoa i puaki ranei tetahi kupu aku ki tetahi o nga kaiwhakarite o Iharaira i whakaritea e ahau hei hepara mo taku iwi? i mea ranei ahau, He aha koutou te hanga whare hita ai moku?
7No reira kia penei tau ki atu aianei ki taku pononga, ki a Rawiri, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Naku koe i tango i te nohoanga hipi, i te whai hipi, hei rangatira mo taku iwi, mo Iharaira:
8A, i a koe ahau i ou haerenga katoa; hautopea atu ana e ahau ou hoariri katoa i tou aroaro; a meinga ana koe e ahau hei ingoa, hei pera ano me te ingoa o nga mea nunui o te whenua.
9Na maku e whakarite he wahi mo taku iwi, mo Iharaira; ka whakatokia ano ratou e ahau kia noho ki to ratou ake, e kore ano ratou e ngaueue a muri ake nei; e kore ano ratou e pehia ki raro i muri nei e nga tama a te kino; e kore e pera me to mua,
10Me to te wa ano i whakaritea ai e ahau nga kaiwhakarite mo taku iwi, mo Iharaira; a ka pehia e ahau ki raro ou hoariri katoa. Ko tetahi, e mea atu ana ahau ki a koe, ma Ihowa e hanga he whare mou.
11A ka tutuki ou ra, ka haere koe ki ou matua, na ka whakaarahia e ahau tou uri i muri i a koe i roto i au tama, ka whakapumautia ano e ahau tona kingitanga.
12Mana e hanga he whare moku, a ka whakapumautia e ahau tona torona a ake ake.
13Ko ahau hei matua ki a ia, ko ia hei tama ki ahau, e kore ano e mutu toku aroha ki a ia, e kore e pera me toku i mutu ki tera i mua atu na i a koe.
14A ka tuturu ia ki toku whare, ki toku kingitanga a ake ake: a ka mau tonu tona torona mo ake tonu atu.
15Rite tonu ki enei kupu katoa, ki tenei putanga katoa, nga kupu a Natana ki a Rawiri.
16Na ka haere a Kingi Rawiri, ka noho ki te aroaro o Ihowa; a ka mea ia, Ko wai ahau, e Ihowa, e te Atua, he aha hoki toku whare, i kawea mai ai ahau e koe ki konei?
17He mea iti ano tenei ki tau titiro, e te Atua; kua korerotia nei hoki e koe te whare o tau pononga a tau tini noa atu, a kua titiro mai hoki koe ki ahau, ano ki te tangata nui rawa, e Ihowa, e te Atua.
18Ko te aha ake hei korerotanga ma Rawiri ki a koe mo te whakahonore i tau pononga? e mohio ana hoki koe ki tau pononga.
19He whakaaro ki tau pononga, e Ihowa, rite tonu ano ki ta tou ngakau, i mea ai koe i enei mea nunui katoa, i whakaritea mai ai enei mea nunui katoa.
20Kahore he rite mou, e Ihowa, kahore atu hoki he atua, ko koe anake; rite tonu ki nga mea katoa i rongo ai o matou taringa.
21Ko tehea iwi hoki o te whenua hei rite mo tau iwi, mo Iharaira, i haere nei te Atua ki te hoki hei iwi mana ake, hei mea ingoa mou, ki nga hanga nunui, whakamataku hoki, i te peinga atu i nga tauiwi i te aroaro o tau iwi i hokona nei e koe i Ihi pa?
22Kua meinga nei hoki e koe tau iwi, a Iharaira, hei iwi mau a ake ake: me koe hoki, e Ihowa hei Atua mo ratou.
23Na whakamana aianei, e Ihowa, te kupu i korerotia e koe mo tau pononga, mo tona whare hoki ake ake, meatia hoki tau i korero ai.
24Kia mana ano, kia whakanuia hoki tou ingoa a ake ake, kia korerotia ai, Ko Ihowa o nga mano te Atua o Iharaira, hei Atua ano ki a Iharaira; a ka tuturu tonu te whare o tau pononga, o Rawiri, ki tou aroaro.
25Nau nei hoki, e toku Atua, i whakapuaki mai ki tau pononga, ka hanga e koe he whare mona: koia te ngakau o tau pononga i anga ai ki te inoi ki tou aroaro.
26Na ko koe, e Ihowa, te Atua, a kua korerotia e koe tenei mea pai ki tau pononga:
27A kua pai tenei koe ki te manaaki i te whare o tau pononga, kia pumau tonu ai ki tou aroaro: ko koe hoki hei manaaki, e Ihowa, a ka manaakitia ake ake.
