TSK · Whakatauki 28:21

Kei whai tahi me te tokomaha ki te kino; kaua ano hoki e hamumu i te totohenga, hei mea kia riro ai i ta te tokomaha, hei whakapeau ke i te tika:

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.

¶ He whakatauki ano hoki enei na te hunga whakaaro nui. Ehara i te mea pai kia whakaaro ki te kanohi tangata ina whakawa.

Ko te mea e inumia ana e ratou kua kawa; he moepuku tonu ta ratou; a he whakama ta o ratou rangatira e matenui ana.

Kei runga o ratou ringa i te mea kino kia mahia marietia e ratou; ka tono te rangatira, kei te tatari hoki te kaiwhakawa kia utua; a ko te tangata nui, e puaki ana i a ia te nanakia o tona wairua: na, whiria tahitia ake e ratou.

¶ He apo moni hoki e tito kupu ai ratou kia whai taonga ai ratou i a koutou: nonamata te tukunga mo ratou ki te he, e kore ano e whakaroa; kahore hoki he moe o to ratou whakangaromanga.
