TSK · 2 Hamuera 18:33

A ko taua mea he he rawa ki te titiro a Aperahama, ko tana tama hoki ia.

Na reira e kore te hoari e whakakorea atu aianei i roto i tou whare a ake ake, mou i whakahawea ki ahau, i tango hoki i te wahine a Uria Hiti hei wahine mau.

¶ Na ka korerotia ki a Ioapa, Nana, kei te tangi te kingi, kei te uhunga mo Apoharama.

E aroha ana te matua ki ana tamariki, pera tonu to Ihowa aroha ki te hunga e wehi ana ki a ia.

¶ Ko te tamaiti whakaarokore he mea whakapouri i tona papa, he mea whakakawa i te ngakau o tona whaea.

He tangata a Iraia, he rite tahi te ngakau ki o tatou, heoi ka kaha nei tana inoi kia kaua e ua; kore ake he ua ki runga ki te whenua, a e toru nga tau, e ono nga marama.
