TSK · Ruka 7:47

Na ka haere atu a Ihowa i tona aroaro, a ka karangatia, Ko Ihowa, ko Ihowa, ko te Atua tohu, atawhai, he tukuroa nei i te riri, he nui nei te aroha, te pono,

Kia whakarere te tangata kino i tona ara, te tangata mahi he i ona whakaaro; kia hoki ki a Ihowa, a ka aroha ia ki a ia; ki to tatou Atua hoki, he nui rawa hoki tana mahi tohu.

Ka whakaorangia ano koutou e ahau i o koutou poke katoa: ka karangatia hoki e ahau te witi, ka whakanuia hoki e ahau, e kore ano te hemokai e tukua e ahau ki a koutou.

Ki te nui ake te aroha o tetahi ki tona papa, whaea ranei, i tona ki ahau, e kore ia e tikangatia maku; ki te nui ake hoki te aroha o tetahi ki tana tama, tamahine ranei, i tona ki ahau, e kore ia e tikangatia maku.

Na, i te kitenga o te Parihi nana ra ia i karanga, ka korero i roto i a ia, ka mea, Me he poropiti tenei, kua matau ia ki te wahine e pa nei ki a ia, tona peheatanga: he wahine hara hoki.

¶ A ka mutu ta ratou kai, ka mea a Ihu ki a Haimona Pita, E Haimona, tama a Hona, rahi atu ranei tou aroha ki ahau i to enei? Ka mea tera ki a ia, Ae, e te Ariki; e mohio ana koe e aroha ana ahau ki a koe. Ka mea ia ki a ia, Whangainga aku reme.

I puta mai te ture kia nui ai te hara; heoi i te hara e nui noa ana, kua hua noa ake te aroha noa:

E akiakina ana hoki matou e te aroha o te Karaiti; i a matou e whakaaro ana i tenei, kotahi i mate mo te katoa, no reira he hunga mate te katoa;

Kia tau te aroha noa ki te hunga katoa e aroha ana, he aroha parakore, ki to tatou Ariki, ki a Ihu Karaiti. Amine.

Tino nui rawa hoki te aroha noa o to tatou Ariki, hui tahi ki te whakapono, ki te aroha i roto i a Karaiti Ihu.

E aku tamariki nonohi, kaua e waiho ma te kupu, ma te arero te aroha; engari ma te mahi, ma te pono.

Ko te aroha hoki tenei ki te Atua, kia pupuri tatou i ana ture: ehara hoki ana ture i te mea taimaha.
