TSK · Whakatauki 11:4

¶ Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Noa, haere mai koutou ko tou whare katoa ki roto ki te aaka; kua kite hoki ahau i a koe he tika ki toku aroaro i tenei whakatupuranga.

Na i te mea he riri tenei, kia tupato kei riro koe i te nui o au rawa; aua hoki koe e whakapeautia e te nui o te utu.

¶ Kahore he rawa o nga taonga o te kino: ma te tika ia te oranga ake i te mate.

Ka pehea ra koutou i te ra o te tirohanga mai, o te whakangaromanga ka pa mai i tawhiti? ka rere koutou ki a wai hei awhina? a ka waiho to koutou kororia ki hea?

Ahakoa ko enei tangata tokotoru, ko Noa, ko Raniera, ko Hopa, i reira, ko o ratou wairua ake e ora i a ratou i to ratou tika, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa.

He aha hoki te pai ki te tangata, ki te riro i a ia te ao katoa, a ka kore he ora mona? He aha hoki ta te tangata e hoatu ai hei utu mona kia ora?

Mehemea hoki na te hara o te kotahi i kingi ai te mate, he mea na te tangata kotahi; waihoki tera noa ake he kingitanga i runga i te ora mo te hunga ka riro nei i a ratou te aroha noa e hua tonu nei, me te tika i homai noa nei, he mea na te kota hi, ara na Ihu Karaiti.
