TSK · Ko Pirimona 1:17

Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki te tangata i korero ki a ia, Ko wai toku whaea? ko wai hoki oku teina?

Ko reira whakahoki ai te Kingi, mea ai ki a ratou, He pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ko ta koutou i mea ai ki tetahi o aku teina, ahakoa ki te iti rawa, he meatanga tena ki ahau.

Ki te ui tetahi mo Taituha, ko ia toku hoa, he hoa mahi noku ki a koutou: ki te ui ranei mo o matou teina, he karere ratou na nga hahi, he kororia no te Karaiti.

¶ He tika hoki kia penei oku whakaaro ki a koutou katoa, no te mea kei roto koutou i toku ngakau; ara, ahakoa i ahau nei i te here, ahakoa i ahau e korero whakaara nei, e whakau nei i te rongopai, ka uru tahi koutou katoa me ahau ki te aroha noa.

He kupu tenei naku ki a koe mo taku tamaiti, mo Onehimu, he mea whanau naku i ahau nei i te herehere:

¶ Na, e oku teina tapu, e te hunga kua uru nei ki ta te rangi karanga, whakaaroa a Ihu Karaiti, te Apotoro, te Tohunga nui o te tikanga kua whakaaetia nei e tatou;

Whakarongo, e oku teina aroha, Kahore ano koia te Atua i whiriwhiri i nga rawakore o tenei ao, kia whiwhi ki te taonga, ara ki te whakapono, kia riro hoki i a ratou te rangatiratanga kua whakaaria mai e ia mo te hunga e aroha ana ki a ia?

Ko ta matou ra i kite ai, i rongo ai, e kauwhautia atu nei e matou ki a koutou, kia whakahoatia ai koutou ki a matou: na, ko to tatou whakahoanga kei te Matua, kei tana Tama hoki, kei a Ihu Karaiti.
