TSK · Genesis 9:4

Hei tikanga mau tonu tenei mo o koutou whakatupuranga, i o koutou nohoanga katoa, kia kaua e kainga tetahi ngako, toto ranei, e koutou.

¶ Ki te kainga hoki tetahi toto e tetahi tangata o te whare o Iharaira, o nga manene ranei i roto i a koutou; ka u atu toku mata ki taua wairua i kainga ai te toto, a ka hatepea atu e ahau i roto i tona iwi.

Engari ra ia kei kainga e koutou te toto; ringihia atu ki te whenua ano he wai.

Kei kainga te mea i mate maori noa: me hoatu ki te manene i roto i ou tatau, a mana e kai; me hoki atu ranei ki te tangata iwi ke: he iwi tapu hoki koe ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua. Kaua e kohuatia he kuao koati ki te waiu o tona whaea.

Katahi ka korerotia ki a Haora ka meatia, Nana, kua hara te iwi ki a Ihowa, e kainga tahitia ana ta ratou kai me nga toto. Na ka mea ia, He mahi hianga ta koutou: hurihia mai he kohatu nui ki ahau aianei.

Mo reira ki atu ki a ratou, Ko te kupu tenei a te Ariki, a Ihowa; Ko ta koutou kai, he mea kinaki ki te toto, e anga ana hoki o koutou kanohi ki a koutou whakapakoko, e whakaheke toto ana hoki koutou: a e mau ranei te whenua i a koutou?

Kotahi tonu to matou whakaaro he pai kia whiriwhiria etahi tangata, kia tonoa atu ki a koutou, hei hoa mo a matou tangata e aroha nei, mo Panapa raua ko Paora;

He pai hoki nga mea katoa i hanga e te Atua, kahore he mea hei rukenga, ina tangohia i runga i te whakawhetai:
