TSK · Genesis 9:16

Ko ahau nei, nana, ka whakapumau ahau i taku kawenata ki a koutou, ki to koutou uri i muri i a koutou;

Me kokoti tonu te tangata i whanau i roto i tou whare, i hokona ranei ki tau moni, a ka mau taku kawenata ki o koutou kikokiko, hei kawenata mau tonu.

He pono ehara toku whare i te pena i te aroaro o te Atua; heoi kua takoto tana kawenata u tonu ki ahau, rite rawa nga aha katoa, mau rawa: no te mea ko toku whakaoranga katoa tenei, ko taku hoki e whakaahuareka ai, ahakoa kahore e meinga ana e ia kia tupu.

He riri puhake, i huna ahau i toku kanohi i a koe, he wahi iti; he aroha mau tonu ia toku e aroha ai ki a koe, e ai ta Ihowa, ta tou kaiwhakaora.

Ka whakaritea ano e ahau he kawenata mau tonu ki a ratou, he mea e kore e whakatahuritia atu e ahau i a ratou, kia mahia he pai ki a ratou; a ka hoatu e ahau toku wehi ki o ratou ngakau, kei whakarere ratou i ahau.

Ka whakaritea ano e ahau te kawenata mo te rongo mau ki a ratou; hei kawenata mau tonu tena ki a ratou; ka whakanohoia ano ratou e ahau, ka whakanuia, ka whakaturia ano e ahau toku wahi tapu ki waenganui i a ratou a ake ake.
