1Whakamaharatia rātou kia ngohengohe ki ngā rangatiratanga, ki ngā mana, kia rongo ki ngā rangatira, kia takatū ki ngā mahi pai katoa;
2kia kaua e kōrero kino ki tētahi tangata, kia kaua e whawhai, kia ngākau ngāwari, kia nui te māhaki o te ngākau e whakaputaina ki ngā tāngata katoa.
3He whakaarokore hoki tātou i mua, he tutū, e tinihangatia ana, he pononga nā ngā hiahia, nā ngā whakaahuareka maha, e noho ana i runga i te nanakia, i te hae, he hunga whakarihariha, e mauāhara ana tētahi ki tētahi.
4Otirā, i te mea ka puta mai nei te tikanga ngāwari me te aroha o te Atua, o tō tātou Kaiwhakaora ki ngā tāngata.
5Ehara i te mea, nā ngā mahi tika i mahia e tātou, engari, nā tāna mahi tohu i whakaorangia ai tātou e ia, he meatanga nā te horoinga o te whānautanga houtanga, nā te whakahoutanga a te Wairua Tapu,
6i ringihia nuitia mai nei e ia ki runga ki a tātou, he mea nā Īhu Karaiti, nā tō tātou Kaiwhakaora.
7Kia whakatikaia ai tātou e tōna aroha noa, kia whiwhi ai ki te taonga, arā ki te ora tonu e tūmanakohia atu nei.
8He kōrero pono tēnei. E mea ana hoki ahau kia kaha tāu kauwhau i ēnei mea, kia mahara ai te hunga kua whakapono ki te Atua ki te mahi i ngā mahi pai. Ko ngā mea ēnei e ātaahua ana, e whai pai ana mō ngā tāngata.
9Ko ngā uiuinga kūware ia, me ngā whakapapa tūpuna, whakarērea atu, me ngā totohe, me ngā whawhai ki ngā mea o te ture, kāhore hoki he pai o aua mea, he mea hanga noa.
10Ko te tangata whakapono hē, ka kotahi, ka rua ngā whakatūpatotanga, whakarērea atu.
11E mātau ana hoki koe kua whakaputaia kētia taua tangata pērā, kei te hara anō hoki, kua mau tōna hē i a ia anō.
Ngā Tohutohu me ngā Mihi Whaiaro12Ka tonoa atu e ahau ki a koe a Aretema, a Tikiku rānei, kia puta tōu uaua ki te haere mai ki ahau ki Nikopori; kua takoto hoki tāku tikanga kia noho ki reira i te hōtoke.
13Kia puta tōu whakaaro kia kawea mai a Hina kaiako ture, rāua ko Aporo; kei hapa tētahi mea mō rāua.
14Me ako hoki ō tātou ki te mahi i ngā mahi pai mō ngā wā o te rawakore kei huakore rātou.
15Tēnei te oha atu nei ki a koe ōku hoa katoa. Oha atu ki te hunga e aroha ana ki a mātou i runga i te whakapono.
Kia tau te aroha noa ki a koutou katoa.
