1Nā Haimona Pita, he pononga, ā, he āpōtoro nā Īhu Karaiti, Ki te hunga kua whiwhi tahi nei tātou ki te whakapono utu nui, i runga o te tika o tō tātou Atua, o Īhu Karaiti, o te Kaiwhakaora:

2Kia whakanuia te aroha noa me te rangimārie ki a koutou, i runga i te mātauranga ki te Atua, ki a Īhu hoki, ki tō tātou Ariki.

3Kua hōmai nā hoki e tōna kaha Atua ki a tātou ngā mea katoa mō te ora, mō te karakia pai, i te mea ka mātau nei ki te Kaikaranga i a tātou i runga i te korōria, i te pai.

4Nā ēnei hoki i riro mai ai i a tātou ngā kupu whakaari, he mea nui whakaharahara, he mea utu nui; mā ēnei hoki koutou ka whiwhi ai ki te āhua Atua, i a koutou ka mawhiti nei i te pirau i te ao, arā i tō te hiahia.

5Mā reira nei hoki, me whakapau rawa tō koutou uaua, honoa iho anō te pai ki runga ki tō koutou whakapono; ki runga hoki ki te pai ko te mātauranga;

6ki runga ki te mātauranga ko te pēhi o te hiahia; ki runga ki te pēhi o te hiahia ko te manawanui; ki runga ki te manawanui ko te karakia pai;

7ki runga ki te karakia pai ko te atawhai ki ngā tēina; ki runga ki te atawhai ki ngā tēina ko te aroha.

8Ki te mea hoki kei a koutou ēnei mea, ki te nui haere hoki, ka meinga koutou kia kaua e māngere, kia kaua e huakore i runga i te mātauranga ki tō tātou Ariki, ki a Īhu Karaiti.

9Ko te tangata hoki kāhore nei i a ia ēnei mea, he matapō, he atarua, kua wareware ki te horoinga o ōna hara ō mua.

10Mō konei, e ōku tēina, kia puta tō koutou uaua ki te whakapūmau i tō koutou karangatanga, i tō koutou whiriwhiringa. Ki te pēnei hoki tā koutou mahi e kore rawa koutou e tapepa.

11Pēnei hoki ka whiwhi nui koutou ki te huarahi tomo atu ki te rangatiratanga mutungakore o tō tātou Ariki, arā o te Kaiwhakaora, o Īhu Karaiti.

12Mō reira anō e kore ahau e māngere ki te whakamahara tonu i a koutou ki ēnei mea, e mātau ana rāia koutou, kua oti anō te whakaū ki runga ki te mea pono, kei a koutou nā.

13Ki tōku whakaaro hoki, i ahau e noho ana i tēnei tapenākara, he mea tika anō kia whakaoho ahau i a koutou, kia whakamahara;

14e mōhio ana hoki ahau e kore e wheau ka mahue tēnei tapenākara ōku, ka pērā anō me tā tō tātou Ariki, me tā Īhu Karaiti, i whakakite mai ai ki ahau.

15Ka puta anō hoki tōku uaua kia mau tonu tō koutou mahara ki ēnei mea i muri i tōku matenga.

16Ehara hoki i te mea he whai tā mātou i ngā kupu i titoa e te whakaaro tinihanga, i te whakapuakanga o te kaha, o te haerenga mai o tō tātou Ariki, o Īhu Karaiti ki a koutou; engari he kaititiro anō mātou ki tōna nui.

17I riro hoki i a ia he hōnore, he korōria nā te Atua Matua, i te putanga mai o taua reo ki a ia i roto i te korōria nui rawa, “Ko tāku Tama tēnei i aroha ai, ko tāku i āhuareka ai.”

18I rongo anō mātou ki tēnei reo e puta mai ana i te rangi, i a mātou i tōna taha i runga i te maunga tapu.

19Kātahi ka ū rawa te kupu poropiti ki a tātou ināianei; pai tonu ki te anga tō koutou whakaaro ki reira, he rama hoki e tīaho ana i te wāhi pōuri, kia pūao rā anō te rā, kia ara rā anō te whetū o te ata i roto i ō koutou ngākau.

20Kia mōhio hoki i te tuatahi, kāhore he poropititanga o te karaipiture nōna ake ōna tikanga.

21Ehara hoki i te mea nā te whakaaro o te tangata i puta mai ai te poropititanga i mua, engari he mea whakamahara nā te Wairua Tapu i kōrero ai ngā tāngata tapu a te Atua.
