TSK · Hopa 13:2

Kua rongo ranei koe i to te Atua whakaaro puku? Kei te kaiponu ranei koe i te whakaaro ki a koe anake?

Kahore he matauranga o Hopa i a ia i korero ra, kahore hoki he mahara i roto i ana kupu.

Ata whakarangona tona reo e papa ana, te pakutanga hoki e puta mai ana i tona mangai.

¶ Heoi i te mutunga o ta Ihowa korero i enei kupu ki a Hopa, na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Eripata Temani, Kua mura toku riri ki a koe, ki a koutou ko ou hoa tokorua: no te mea kihai koutou i korero i te mea tika moku, kihai i rite ki ta taku pononga, ki ta Hopa.

Ki te tae atu hoki te tangata, me te kauwhau i tetahi Ihu e rere ke ana i ta matou i kauwhau ai, ki te whiwhi ranei koutou i tetahi wairua ke atu i tena i whiwhi na koutou, ki tetahi rongopai ranei e rere ke ana i ta koutou i whakaae ai, e tika a na koutou kia ata hanga ki a ia.

¶ Na kua wairangi ahau: he kaha mo ta koutou ki ahau: i tika ke hoki ma koutou ahau e whakapai: kahore hoki ahau i hoki iho i nga tino apotoro i te aha, i te aha, ahakoa ra he kahore noa iho ahau nei.
