Te Tua-Kaua 1:1-46
1 Aikai ana taeka Mote ake e taekin nakoia tibun Iteraera ni kabane, n aonon te Ioretan i nanon te rereua, ake rereua ake a aoraoi* ake i moan Tiaba, n uakaan ma* Baran, Tobere, Raban, Aterota, ao Ritaaba.
2 Bon 11 te bong kaeani Katetibaanea+ mai Oreba ni kawain te aono ae maungaunga i Teira.
3 N te ka-40 n ririki,+ n te ka-11 n namwakaina ae teuana iai bongin te namwakaina, ao e taetae Mote nakoia tibun Iteraera ni kaineti ma bwaai ni kabane ake e tuangnga Iehova bwa e na tuangia.
4 E riki aei imwin tokanikaina i aon Taion+ are aia uea taian Amoraite, are e maeka i Etiibon, ao Oka+ are ueani Batian, are e maeka i Atitarota, i Eterei.+
5 E a taekina te Tua aei Mote n aonon te Ioretan n te aba are Moaba,+ ni kangai:
6 “E tuangira Iehova ae Atuara i Oreba ni kangai, ‘Kam a maan n tiku n te aono ae maungaunga aei.+
7 Teirake ao naako nakon aia aono ae maungaunga taian Amoraite,+ ao nakon aono ni kabane ake i rarikina: te Arabaa,*+ te aono ae maungaunga, te Tiebira,* te Nekebo,* ao te aono are i mataniwin te aba.+ Naako abaia tibuni Kanaan ni karokoa Rebanon*+ ao te karaanga ae abwabwaki ae Iuberetiti.+
8 Noria, I a tia ni kaaki te aba i mwaimi. Naako iai ao abana te aba are I taetae n tuea ibukina nakoia tamami, nakon Aberaam, Itaaka,+ ao Iakoba,+ bwa N na angania ma kanoaia* ake imwia.’+
9 “Ao I tuangingkami n te tai arei ni kangai: ‘I a aki kona n uota uotau ni kairingkami n tii ngai.+
10 E a tia Iehova ae Atuami ni kamwaitingkami, ao kam a rangi ni bati n ai aron itoini karawa n te bong aei.+
11 Ke e kamwaitingkami Iehova ae Atuaia ami bakatibu,+ n te mwaiti ae teuana tenga okiokini mwaitimi, ao ke e kakabwaiaingkami n aron are e beritanna nakoimi.+
12 N na kangaa n uotii rawawatami ao n tabeakin uotami ao ami kauntaeka, n tii ngai?+
13 Rineiia mwaane aika wanawana, a rabakau, ao a mwaatai man ami baronga nako, ao N na mwiokoiia bwa mataniwi i aomi.’+
14 Ao kam kaekaai ni kangai, ‘E raoiroi te baene ko tuangira bwa ti na karaoia.’
15 Mangaia are I kairiia taani kairiri n ami baronga nako aikai, aika mwaane aika wanawana ma ni mwaatai, ao I mwiokoiia bwa a na kairingkami, bwa mataniwi i aoia kaka teuana tenga, mataniwi i aoia kaka tebubua, mataniwi i aoia kaka nimangaun, mataniwi i aoia kaka tengaun, ao taan tararua n ami baronga nako.+
16 “N te tai anne ao I tuangia ami tia moti ni kangai: ‘Ngkana kam ongoraea te tangitang i marenaia tarimi, ao kam na momotikitaeka n te raoiroi,+ i marenan te mwaane ma tarina ke te aomata ae maeka n iruwa.+
17 Kam na tai inanonano n te motikitaeka.+ Kam riai n ongora iroun ae mangori n aron naba ae kakannato.+ Ao kam na tai maakuia mwaane,+ bwa bon ana bwai te Atua te motikitaeka.+ Ma ngkana iai te tangitang ae rangi ni kangaanga iroumi, kam riai n uotia nakoiu ao N na ongoraeia.’+
18 N te tai anne ao I tuangingkami bwaai ni kabane aika kam riai ni karaoi.
19 “Imwina ao ti a kitana Oreba ao ni mwananga n rinanon te rereua ae abwabwaki ma ni kakamaaku,+ are kam noria i aoni kawaira nakon aia aono ae maungaunga taian Amoraite,+ n aron are e tua Iehova ae Atuara nakoira. Imwin tabeua te tai ao ti a roko i Katetibaanea.+
20 I taku ngkanne nakoimi, ‘Kam a roko n aia aono ae maungaunga taian Amoraite, ae e a anga nakoira Iehova ae Atuara.
21 Noria, e a tia Iehova ae Atuami n anganingkami te aba aei. Waerake naako abanna, n aron are e tuangingkami Iehova ae Atuaia ami bakatibu.+ Tai maaku ke ni maakunrang.’
22 “Ma kam bane ni kawarai ao kam taku, ‘Ti na kanakoia mwaane n rimoara bwa a na tuoa te aba ibukira, ao n uota rikaaki te rongorongo nakoira, bwa te kawai raa ae ti riai n toua ao aekakira kaawa aika ti na roko iai.’+
23 E raoiroi te iango anne irou, mangaia are I rineiia 12 ami mwaane, ae kaka temanna mani baronga nako.+
24 A nako ao a waerake nakon te aono ae maungaunga,+ ao a roko n te Mwarua ae Etikora ao a karaba n tuoa.
25 A anai tabeua uaan te aba arei ao n uotii rikaaki nakoira, ao a kaongoira te rongorongo ae kangai, ‘E raoiroi te aba ae e a anganira Iehova ae Atuara.’+
26 Ma kam rawa ni waerake, ao kam karitei nakon te baere e tua Iehova ae Atuami.+
27 Kam teimatoa ni ngurengure i nanon ami umwanrianna nako ao kam taku, ‘Ibukina ngke e ribaira Iehova, ngaia are e kairira ni kaotinakoira man te aba ae Aikubita, bwa e na anga ngaira nako nanoni baia taian Amoraite, bwa a na kamaunaira.
28 Aekakira te tabo ae ti na nako iai? A kabwarai nanora* tarira+ ngke a kangai, “A korakora ao a abwabwaki riki nakoira te natannaomata arei, ao a rangi ni korakora aia kaawa ma n nonoaki nako karawa,*+ ao ti noriia kanoaia taian Anakim+ iai.”’
29 “Mangaia are I taku nakoimi, ‘Tai maakunrang ke ni maaku irouia.+
30 E na rimoami Iehova ae Atuami ao e na buaka ibukimi,+ n aron are e karaoia i matami i Aikubita.+
31 Ao n te rereua kam nora aron Iehova ae Atuami n uouotingkami n taabo ake kam nako iai, ni karokoa rokomi n te tabo aei, n aron te mwaane ae uouota natina.’
32 Ma n aki ongei baikai ni kabane, kam bon aki naba onimakina Iehova ae Atuami,+
33 are e rimoami i nanon te kawai ni kakaaea te tabo are kam na kaembwa iai. E kaoti n te ai n te bong ao n te nang n te ngaina, ni kaota nakoimi te kawai ae kam riai n toua.+
34 “N te tai anne ao e ongo Iehova baike kam taekin, ao e un ao e taetae n tuea+ ni kangai,
35 ‘Akea temanna i buakoia mwaane aika n te roro ae buakaka aei, ae e na nora te aba ae raoiroi are I taetae n tuea bwa N na angania tamami,+
36 ma tii Kareba are natin Iebunne. E na noria ao N na anganna ma natina te aba are e nakonako iai, kioina ngke e irira Iehova ma nanona ni kabane.*+
37 (E un naba irou Iehova ibukimi ao e taku, “Ngkoe naba ko na aki rin ikekei.+
38 Bon Iotua are natin Nun, ane e tei i matam,+ ae e na rin n te aba.+ Kakorakoraa,*+ bwa e na kairiia tibun Iteraera bwa a na abanna.”)
39 Irarikin anne, a na rin natimi ake kam taku bwa a na riki bwa kaanga baika kuribwaiaki,+ ao natimi aika n te bong aei aika aki ataa ae raoiroi ma ae buakaka, ao N na angania bwa a na abanna.+
40 Ma ngkami ngkanne, rairaki ao mwananga nakon te rereua ni kawain Taari ae Uraura.’+
41 “Ngaia are kam taku nakoiu, ‘Ti a tia ni bure nakon Iehova. Ti na waerake ngkai ni buaka n aron are e tua nakoira Iehova ae Atuara!’ Mangaia are kam karin ami bwai ni buaka n tatabemaningkami nako, ao kam iangoia bwa e bebete ararakean te maunga.+
42 Ma e taku Iehova nakoiu, ‘Tuangia ni kangai: “Kam na tai waerake ni buaka, bwa N na aki mena iroumi.+ Ngkana kam waerake ao kam na konaaki irouia akana kairiribai nakoimi.”’
43 Mangaia are I taetae nakoimi, ma kam aki ongo. Ma kam karitei nakon te baere e tua Iehova, ao kam kan rarabakau ni kataia n ararakea te maunga.
44 Ao a otinakoingkami taian Amoraite ake a maeka n te maunga arei, ao a kakioingkami nako n ai aroia manibeeru, ao a kamaenakoingkami i Teira ni karokoa Orema.
45 Mangaia are kam oki ma n tang i matan Iehova, ma e aki ongo Iehova iroumi ke ni kakauongo iroumi.
46 Anne bukina ae kam teimatoa iai n tiku i Kateti i nanoni boong aika bati.
