TSK · Roma 8:3

Na hanga ana e Mohi te nakahi ki te parahi, a whakanohoia ana ki te pou; na, mehemea kua ngaua tetahi e te nakahi, ka titiro ia ki te nakahi parahi, kua ora.

I whakakikokikoa te Kupu, a noho ana i a matou, i kite ano matou i tona kororia he kororia e rite ana ki to te Tama kotahi a te Matua, ki tonu i te aroha noa, i te pono.

Na ka karanga tuarua ratou ki te tangata i matapo i mua ra, ka mea ki a ia, Hoatu he kororia ki te Atua; e matau ana matou he tangata hara tenei.

No te mea kahore he mahi o te ture e tika ai tetahi kikokiko i tona aroaro: ma roto mai i te ture te matauranga ki te hara.

I a tatou hoki i te kikokiko, e mahi ana nga hihiritanga o nga hara, e whakaohokia nei e te ture, i roto i o tatou wahi, a hua ake ko te mate.

He pai hoki ki ahau me i kanga ahau, me i motuhia i a te Karaiti, he whakaaro ki oku teina, ara ki oku whanaunga o te wahi ki te kikokiko:

Kua hokona tatou e te Karaiti i roto i te kanga a te ture, i a ia nei i meinga hei kanga mo tatou: kua oti hoki te tuhituhi, He mea kanga nga tangata katoa e whakairia ki runga ki te rakau:

A, no ka tutuki te taima, ka tonoa mai e te Atua tana Tama, i whanau i te wahine, i whanau i raro i te ture,

¶ Na, kei nga tamariki he kikokiko, he toto, koia hoki ia i whakawhiwhia ai ano hoki ki aua mea; kia ai ai tona matenga hei whakakahore mo te rangatira o te mate, ara mo te rewera;

Ehara hoki to tatou i te tohunga nui e kore e ahei kia mamae tahi me tatou e ngoikore nei; i whakamatautauria nei hoki ia i nga mea katoa, i i peneitia me tatou, kahore ia he hara.

¶ I te mea ko to te ture he atarangi no nga mea pai e puta ana mai i muri, ehara i te ahua pu o aua mea, e kore e whai mana i aua patunga tapu e whakaeketia tonutia ana e ratou i tenei tau, i tenei tau, e tino tika ai te hunga e whakatata ana.

Kotahi nei hoki tana whakahere, a tika tonu i a ia ake ake te hunga ka oti te whakatapu.

¶ Na, kua mamae nei o te Karaiti kikokiko mo tatou, e mau koutou ki nga ea whawhai, ara ki taua whakaaro pu ra ano: ko te tangata hoki kua mamae te kikokiko kua mutu te hara;
