Je was op zoek naar: string (Engels - Maori)

and straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain.
na puare tonu iho ona taringa, korokoro noa ana te here o tona arero, na kua tika ana korero

for, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart.
nana, kua whakapikoa te kopere e te hunga kino, e whakatikaia ana a ratou pere ki te aho, hei perenga pukutanga ma ratou ki te hunga ngakau tika

the strings are fine
aho pai
