1Nā, he mea tēnei nā mātou ki a koutou, e ōku tēina, mō te taenga mai a tō tātou Ariki, o Īhu Karaiti, mō tō tātou huihuinga atu anō ki a ia;

2kei hohoro te rurea o ō koutou hinengaro, kei ohorere rānei i tā te wairua, i tā te kupu, i tā te pukapuka rānei e kīia ana nā mātou, e mea ana kua tae tonu mai ināianei te rā o te Ariki.

3Kei tinihangatia koutou i tētahi mea e te tangata. E kore hoki e tae wawe mai, kia mātua tae mai te takanga atu, kia whakakitea mai anō hoki te tangata o te hara, te tama a te whakangaro.

4He hoariri nei ia, e whakakake ana i a ia ki runga ake i ngā mea katoa e kīia ana he Atua, e karakiatia ana; kia noho ai ia i te whare tapu o te Atua, kia whakaatu ai i a ia ko ia te Atua.

5Kāhore rānei koutou e mahara i ahau anō i a koutou, i kōrerotia e ahau ēnei mea ki a koutou?

6Nā, ka mātau koutou ināianei ki te mea e ārai ana, kia whakakitea mai rā anō ia a tōna tāima.

7Nō te mea kei te mahi ināianei te mea huna o te kino, otirā, tērā tētahi kei te ārai ināianei, kia whakawāteatia rawatia anō ia.

8Ko reira whakakitea mai ai taua tangata kino, e whakangaromia e te Ariki ki te hā o tōna māngai, e whakakāhoretia ki te putanga nui o tōna taenga mai.

9Arā a ia pū, i rite nei tōna taenga mai ki te mahinga a Hātana, i runga i te mana, i ngā tohu, i ngā merekara teka,

10i ngā mahi tinihanga katoa hoki o te hē, i roto i te hunga e whakangaromia ana; nō te mea kīhai i riro i a rātou te aroha o te pono, kia ora ai rātou.

11Mō konei hoki ka tukua atu e te Atua ki a rātou he pōhēhē e mahi ana, kia whakapono ai rātou ki te teka;

12kia tukua ai ki te hē te hunga katoa kāhore i whakapono ki te pono, i āhuareka kē ki te hē.

13Tika tonu ia kia whakawhetai atu mātou ki te Atua mō koutou i ngā wā katoa, e ōku tēina e arohaina nei e te Ariki, he mea whiriwhiri nā hoki koutou nā te Atua nō te tīmatanga rā anō mō te ora, i runga i te whakatapu a te Wairua, i runga anō i te whakapono ki te pono.

14Ko te mea tēnā i karangatia ai koutou e ia, he mea nā tō mātou rongopai, arā kia whiwhi ki te korōria o tō tātou Ariki, o Īhu Karaiti.

15Heoi, e ōku tēina, e tū koutou; kia mau ki ngā whakarerenga iho i whakaakona ai koutou e te kupu, e tā mātou pukapuka rānei.

16Nā, mā tō tātou Ariki, mā Īhu Karaiti pū anō, mā te Atua, mā tō tātou Matua, i aroha mai nei ki a tātou, i hōmai nei i te whakamārie mutungakore, me te mea pai e tūmanakohia atu nei, he meatanga nā te aroha noa,

17māna e whakamārie ō koutou ngākau, māna koutou e whakaū ki runga ki ngā kupu, ki ngā mahi pai katoa.
