TSK · 1 Hamuera 2:25

He kino hoki tana mahi ki ta Ihowa titiro: na ka whakamatea hoki ia.

Kei whakaaro ki te kanohi ina whakawa, kia rite ta koutou whakarongo ki te iti, ki te rahi; kei wehi koutou i te kanohi tangata; no te mea na te Atua te whakawa; a, ko te mea e ngaro ana i a koutou, ka kawe mai ki ahau, a maku e whakarongo.

¶ Ki te ara ake tetahi take pakeke rawa i a koe te whakawa, he toto ki te toto, he whakawa ki te whakawa, he patu ki te patu, he take tautohetohe i roto i ou tatau: na me whakatika koe, me haere ki runga ki te wahi e whiriwhiri ai a Ihowa, tou Atua;

Na Ihowa hoki i whakapakeke o ratou ngakau, kia turia ai e ratou a Iharaira ki te riri, kia tino whakangaromia ai ratou e ia, kia kore ai hoki ratou e tohungia, engari kia whakangaromia ratou e ia, kia peratia me ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki a Mohi.

Ki te hara tetahi tangata ki tona hoa, a ka meinga he oati hei oati mana, a ka tae mai ia a ka oati ki mua i tou aata i tenei whare;

Heoi kihai i rongo te kingi ki ta te iwi; na te Atua hoki te take, kia mana ai tana kupu i korero ai a Ihowa, na te mangai o Ahia Hironi ki a Ieropoama tama a Nepata.

Kahore he kaiwhakatikatika mo ta maua, kahore he tangata hei whakapa i tona ringa ki a maua tahi.

Kahore nei hoki koe e aro ki te patunga tapu; penei kua hoatu e ahau: kahore koe e ahuareka ki te tahunga tinana.

¶ He kino te papaki ki te tangata e whakarere ana i te ara; a, ko te tangata e kino ana ki te ako, ka mate.

Koia hoki ratou te ahei ai te whakapono, kua mea nei hoki a Ihaia,

Na, e taea ano e ia te tino whakaora te hunga e na runga atu ana i a ia ki te Atua; e ora tonu ana hoki ia hei inoi mo ratou.
