TE NAKAHI PARAIHE.

(The Brazen Serpent : ok Whosoever). apjH TAKU tamaiti aroka, kei kona *ia tetahi kupu kei to Paipera, e hiahia ana ahau kite korero atu Id a-koe, heahakoa he tamaiti nonohi koe, ka matau kite tikanga o tenei kupu, ka koa koe, ina ka rongo Id te kupu o Dm; e whakapono ana koe Id tana aroha nui; mekemea e whakapono ana koo, ko reira ka mohio he oraugatonutanga tau ; ka noho tahi koe mete Atua i te rangi ina ka mate koe. Ko te kupu i mea nei ahau, i tuhituhia ite 21. Upoko o Taunga, mehemea he Paipera tau, me kind e koe; e timata ana i te rarangi 4. Na, ka turia atu e ratou i Maunga Horo, na te ara o te Moana Whero, Id te taiawhio i te whenua o Broma: a pouri noa iho te wairua o te iwi i te ara. A ka korero whakahe te iwi mo te te Atua, mo Mold hold, "na te aha i kawea mai ai matou Id runga nei i Ihapa kia mate Id te koraha ?" Kahore nei hold he taro, kahore he wai; a e whakarikarika ana to matou wairua Id tenei taro mama. Na, ka tukua mai e Ikowa he nakahi tuaahi ki roto Id te iwi, a ka ngaua te iwi e aua mea; he tokomaha nga tangata o Iharaira i mate. Na, ka haere mai te iwi Id a Mold, a ka mea, kua hara matou. Na, ka inoi a Mohi mo te iwi. Na, ko te meatanga . mai a Ihowa Id a Mohi, Hanga tetahi nakahi tuaahi man: a kite mea kua ngaua tetahi, a ka titiro Id taua mea, na, ka ora. Na, hanga ana e Mohi to nakahi Id te parahi, a whakanohoia ana e ia Id runga Id to pou ; A ngaua rawatia ake tetahi e te nakahi, kua titiro kite

nakahi parahi, ora ake. I tino aroha to Atua Id te iwi o Iharaira. Na, lea kite koe i korero whakahe; Kua korero whakahe ranei koe ? kei taku mohio e riri ana koe i etalii taldwa; kua homai he rnahi mau, he korero pukapuka ranei, kahore ano koe i korero whakahe, kua a hiahia Id te haere Id te hori ? Nga Anahera pai e noho ana i te rangi e kore ratou e korero whakahe, no te mea, e arolia ana ratou kite Atua, e hiahia ana ratou kite malii i nga mea e ki atu ana ia ; Heaha te take i korero whakahe ai koe, i te mea he tangata hara koe ? Kua rongo ranei koe Id a Hatana ? Kei te 3 Upoko o Kenehi, ka rongo koe ki a ia, he maha atu ano hold, nga wahi i te Paipera ka korero koe mona. Ka nui tana kino kite Atua, he wairua kino rawa ia; ka nui tana pai Id te whakake i nga tangata. Otira e haere mad ana tetahi taldwa ka herena ia kite tini; ka maka ia ki roto kite ahi eka tonu ana i nga wa katoa. He nui rawa ana kara ; E mea ana ia Ida kino tatou penei me ia; Kua he nei te tangata i a ia; E hiahia ana ia i naianei Ida meatia o tatou tinana Ida mamae i te reinga. Ko reira tatou, mehemea kahore te Atua i whakaaro i tetahi tikanga hei whakaora i a tatou. He arolia te Atua, e kore ia e pai Ida mate te : tangata ite reinga. Na, i runga i :tera aroha i tukua mai e ia tana tamaiti aroka, Id te rapu kite whakaora i te hunga hara. Na, i Id mai tera Tamaiti aroha. " Tukua nga tamarild nonohi kia haere mai Id au, kaua hold ratou e araia atu, no nga penei hold te ranga- ' tiratanga o to Atua. Ka nui tana pai Ida kite i a koe e whakaro ana ki tana aroha

nui. Na i kite koe i tera kupu, i inau te riri o te Atua ki runga i nga tangata o Iharaira i te takiwa i hara ai ratou; whai-hoki, i aroha ia Id a ratou. I tenei, ka kite tatou, e kore rawa te Atua e waiho i tenei mea i te hara, kia mutu rano i a ia whakakahore. Ko koe e taku tamaiti aroha, he tangata hara koe, ka • mau te riri o te Atua Id a koe mehemea kahore ano koe i whakaorangia i runga i te ara tika kua whakaroa nei e te Atua. I kite koe, i ora nga tangata i titiro

M te nakahi, na te mea, i- H te Atua ko ia e titiro ana ki taua mea ka ora ake." E kore e taea e ratou te whakaora i a ratou, E kore ano e taea e Mohi. I whakapono ratou Id te Atua; I reira ka titiro ratou, na ora ake. Mehemea lie Paipera tau me kimi e koe, etahi rarangi, i te 8 Upoko o te Bongo Pai a Hoani ; I reira ka whakatu mai te Ariki ite tikanga o tena kupu. He pono te kupu i korerotia Id nga tangata o Iharaira ; I tuhituhia mai ano e te Atua mo tatou, Ida mohio ai nga tangata e

pehia nei o ratou wairua kia ora ai. I mea te Ariki a Ihu Kariti, "Ka rite hold M ta Mohi whakairinga i te nakahi ite koraha; kua takato te tikanga kia pera ano te whakairinga o te Tama a te tangata Ida kahore ai e mate te tangata e whakapono ana Id a ia, engari kia whiwhi kite orangatonutanga. Na, koia ano te aroha o te Atua Id te ao honiai ana e ia tana Tamaiti kotaki, Ida kahore ai e mate te tangata e wliakapono ana ki a ia, engari kia whiwhi M te orangatonutanga. Kua whakairia a Ihu ki runga kite repeka; Na , i naianei, mehemea ka whakapono te tangata Id a ia, ka ora ia. I mate te Karaiti mo o tatou hara. He meawhakaora ano hold koutou nana i akoutou t e mate ana i runga I i nga he i' nga hara. He pono te Atua, i mea ia, ko ngautuhoki o te hara he mate. Na Ihu hoki i waha o tatou hara ki tona tinana

ake, i runga.

i te rakau, ara, Id te ripeka. Kotalii I bold ■wbakamamaetanga o te Kai'iti mo j

nga hara, te tika mo te he. I tuku hold i a ia Ida mate hei utu mo nga tangata tokomaha. Ka kite koe, i penei te tuku a Ihu i a ia Ida mate, kia ora ai nga tangata hara e whakapono ana Id a ia. I naianei mehemea ka whakapono, te tangata Id a Ihu, kua murua ana hara ; E kore e taea e te rewera te tu tera tangata.

He pono, ko Dm Kariti ta tera nakahi parahi i whakarite ai. E mea ana ia, “whakapono mai ki ahau, ka ora koe.” Kua ngaua koe e te hara, na te mea he tangata hara koe ; Kei te orapito koe ite whakawakanga. Kua whakopono ranei koe ki a

Ihu? mehemea kahore ano koe i whakapono, me whakapono koe i naianei. Kia meatia koe hei'tamaiti ma te Atua, me ia hei matua' mau.

Ka pai ranei koe. hei tamaiti mo te Atua, kiatiakinga anahera i a koe, mete wairua o te ki tou ngakau, na, i takiwa ka mate koe, kiahaere ki te Eangatiratanga o

te Atua ? Ka hiui ranei koe kia arahina koe e

te rewera i tenei wa, na, i te takiwa ka mate koe Ha haere Id te wahi e ka tonu ana, te ahi ? E taku tamaiti aroha, whakapono kite aroha o te Atua; E mea ana ia kite whakaora i a koe. Whakapono ki a Ihu, e horoia ana o tatou hara katoa M nga toto o Ihu Kariti: Kua mea te Atua, "e horoia ana o hara katoa Id nga toto o Ihu Kariti toku tamaiti." Ka whakapono ranei koe kite Atua? Me titiro koe ki a Ihu, kia ora ai koe, ake, ake, ake.
