1 Koriniti 6 - Maori Bible 2012(MRI2012)

Te Whakapae i ngā Hoa Karaitiana i raro i te Ture

1Ka kaha rānei tētahi o koutou, mehemea he tautohe tāna ki tōna hoa, ki te haere ki te whakawā i te aroaro o te hunga hē, ā, kauaka ki te aroaro o te hunga tapu?

2Kāhore oti koutou i mātau mā te hunga tapu e whakawā te ao? Ki te riro mā koutou e whakawā te ao, e kore rānei koutou e tau hei whakarite i ngā mea iti rawa?

3Kāhore koutou i mātau ko tātou hei whakawā mō ngā anahera? Kauaka oti ngā mea o tēnei ao?

4Nā, ki te mea he whakawā a koutou ki ngā mea o tēnei ao, whakanohoia ai rānei e koutou ko te hunga iti o te hāhi hei whakarite?

5I kōrero atu ai ahau i tēnei kia whakamā ai koutou. Koia rānei, kāhore rawa e kitea kia kotahi he tangata whakaaro i roto i a koutou, hei whakarite ina whakawā ōna tēina i a rāua.

6Kei te whakawā ia te tuakana i te teina, ā, i te aroaro rawa o te hunga whakapono kore?

7Ehara, kua waiho kē tēnā hei hē i roto i a koutou, tā koutou whakawā tētahi i tētahi. He aha tē whakaririka kau ai ina ahatia koutou? He aha tē tangohia noatia atu ai ā koutou mea?

8Ehara, ko koutou tonu kei te mahi i te hē, ā, kei te tango pokanoa, ko ō koutou tēina anō te meatanga.

9Tēnā rānei kāhore koutou i te mātau, e kore te hunga whakahaere hē e whiwhi ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua? Kei tinihangatia koutou; e kore te hunga moepuku, te hunga karakia whakapakoko rānei, te hunga pūremu, te hunga whakawahine, te hunga rānei e mea ana i te tāne hei wahine,

10ngā tāngata tāhae, ngā tāngata apo, ngā haurangi, te hunga taunu, te hunga hao taonga rānei, e whiwhi ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua.

11He pērā hoki ētahi o koutou i mua; otirā, kua horoia koutou, kua whakatapua, kua whakatikaia i runga i te ingoa o te Ariki, o Īhu Karaiti, he meatanga nā te Wairua o tō tātou Atua.

Whakamahia tō Tinana kia Whaikorōria ai te Atua

12“He tika ngā mea katoa māku,” otirā, e kore e pai katoa. “He tika ngā mea katoa māku,” otirā, e kore ahau e pai ki tētahi mea hei rangatira mōku.

13“Ko ngā kai mō te kōpū, ko te kōpū mō ngā kai,” heoi, ka ngaro tēnei i te Atua me ērā hoki. Ehara hoki te tinana i te mea mō te moepuku, engari, mā te Ariki, ko te Ariki hoki hei Ariki mō te tinana.

14Ā, nā te Atua i ara ai te Ariki waihoki māna tātou ka ara ai, mā tōna kaha.

15Kāhore oti koutou i mātau, he wāhi ō koutou tinana nō te Karaiti? Me tango koia e ahau ngā wāhi o te Karaiti, ā, ka mea i a rātou hei wāhi mō te wahine kairau? Kāhore rāpea!

16Ā, kāhore rānei koutou i mātau, ko te tangata e honoa ki te wahine kairau he tinana kotahi? E kī ana hoki ia, “Hei kikokiko kotahi rāua tokorua.”

17Otiia, ko te tangata e honoa ki te Ariki, kotahi tonu te wairua.

18Rere atu rā i te moepuku. Nō waho o te tinana ngā hara katoa e hara ai te tangata; ko te tangata ia e moepuku ana, e hara ana ia ki tōna ake tinana.

19Ā, kāhore rānei koutou i mātau, he whare tapu tō koutou tinana nō te Wairua Tapu i roto nā i a koutou, i hōmai nei e te Atua? Ā, ehara i te mea nō koutou ake koutou.

20Kua oti hoki koutou te hoko ki te utu; whakakorōriatia te Atua ki ō koutou tinana.
