TSK · Roma 15:1

Ae, i titiro ia ki te kupu whakaari a te Atua, kihai ia i ruarua i runga i te whakaponokore, engari ka kaha tonu tona whakapono, me te whakakororia ki te Atua,

Ko matou he kuware mo ta te Karaiti, ko koutou ia he hunga whai whakaaro i roto i a te Karaiti; ko matou he ngoikore, ko koutou ia he hunga kaha; to koutou he kororia, to matou ia he honorekore.

Engari, ko nga wahi o te tinana e kiia ana he ngoikore, nui rawa te mahi ma era;

¶ E oku teina, ahakoa ra i rokohanga te tangata e tetahi he, ma koutou, ma te hunga i te Wairua, e whakaara ake ia i runga i te wairua mahaki; me te titiro iho ano ki a koe, kei whakamatautauria hoki ko koe.

Na ko ta matou whakahau tenei ki a koutou, e oku teina, whakatupatoria te hunga whakakeke, whakamarietia te hunga ngakau rahirahi, tautokona ake te hunga ngoikore, kia manawanui ki nga tangata katoa.

I tuhituhi atu ai ahau ki a koutou, e nga matua, no te mea kua matau koutou ki a ia, ara ki to te timatanga. I tuhituhi atu ai ahau ki a koutou, e nga taitamariki, no te mea he kaha koutou, e mau ana hoki te kupu a te Atua i roto i a koutou, a k ua hinga i a koutou te wairua kino.
