TSK · Waiata 19:13

Tena ko tenei i poka noa te tangata ki tona hoa, ki te kohuru tinihanga i a ia; me tango ia e koe i taku aata, kia mate ai ia.

¶ A ki te pohehe te whakaminenga katoa o Iharaira, a ka hara, a ka ngaro taua mea i nga kanohi o te whakaminenga, a ka tika ke i tetahi o a ratou mahi, he mea e kore e tika kia meatia, a ka whai hara ratou;

¶ A ki te pohehe tetahi tangata noa atu, a ka hara, nona i mea i tetahi mea e tika ke ana i tetahi o nga whakahau a Ihowa, he mea e kore e tika kia meatia, a ka whai hara;

A, ki te poka wahi tetahi tangata, kahore e whakarongo ki te tohunga e tu ana, e minita ana i reira i te aroaro o Ihowa, o tou Atua, ki te kaiwhakawa ranei, me whakamate taua tangata; a ka whakakorea atu i koe te kino i roto i a Iharaira.

A, no te rongonga o Rawiri kua mate a Napara, ka mea ia, Kia whakapaingia a Ihowa i tohe nei i te tohe ki a Napara mo toku tawainga; i pupuri nei i tana pononga kei kino, a whakahokia atu ana e Ihowa te kino a Napara ki runga ki tona matenga ake. Na ka tono tangata a Rawiri ki te korero ki a Apikaira, ki te tiki i a ia hei wahine mana.

Ko te mea kihai i kitea e ahau mau e whakaatu mai ki ahau; ki te mea i mahi ahau i te he, ka mutu taku.

No te mea he tika a Ihowa, e aroha ana ki te tika; ka kite te hunga tika i tona kanohi.

He ra hoki a Ihowa te Atua, he whakangungu rakau: ka homai e Ihowa te atawhai me te kororia; e kore e kaiponuhia e ia tetahi mea pai ki te hunga e tapatahi ana te haere.

Tenei ano taku e whai nei, kia harakore tonu toku hinengaro i te aroaro o te Atua, o nga tangata.

Kahore oti koutou i matau, ki te tuku koutou i a koutou ki tetahi hei pononga, he pononga koutou na tera kua ngohengohe na koutou ki tana; na te hara ranei, a mate iho, na te ngohengohe ranei, a tika ake?
