18 He teka ianei ko Ihowa, ko to koutou Atua, hei hoa mo koutou? a kua meinga koutou kia ata noho a tawhio noa? kua homai hoki e ia nga tangata o te whenua ki toku ringa; a kua taea te whenua te pehi i te aroaro o Ihowa, i te aroaro ano o tana iwi.
[Is] not the Lord with you? and he has given you rest round about, for he has given into your hands the inhabitants of the land; and the land is subdued before the Lord, and before his people.
19 Na tukua o koutou ngakau, o koutou wairua, ki te rapu i a Ihowa, i to koutou Atua. Whakatika ki te hanga i te wahi tapu o te Atua, o Ihowa, ki te kawe mai ano i te aaka o te kawenata a Ihowa, i nga oko tapu a te Atua, ki te whare ka hanga nei mo te ingoa o Ihowa.
Now set your hearts and souls to seek after the Lord your God: and rise, and build a sanctuary to your God to carry in the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built to the name of the Lord.
