Ngā Rā Mutunga
1 Kia mātau koe ki tēnei, ko ā ngā rā o te whakamutunga puta mai ai ngā wā o te hē. 2 E aroha hoki ngā tāngata ki a rātou anō, e aroha ki te moni, e whakapehapeha, e whakakake, e kohukohu, e tutū ki ngā mātua, kāhore he whakawhetai, kāhore he tapu, 3 kāhore he aroha, he upoko mārō, he ngautuarā, e kore e pēhi i te ngākau, he hunga nanakia, kāhore e aroha ki te pai, 4 he hunga tuku tangata, he hunga hīkaka, whakakake, tō rātou aroha kei ngā mahi tākaro kāhore ia ki te Atua; 5 ko te āhua o te karakia kei a rātou, tōna kaha ia whakakāhoretia iho. Tahuri kē koe i ngā tāngata pērā.
6 Nō rātou hoki te hunga e kuhu nei ki ngā whare, ā, riro pārau ana i a rātou ngā wāhine heahea, e taimaha nei i te hara, he mea kāwhaki nā ngā hiahia maha, 7 e ako tonu ana, heoi kāhore rawa kia tae ki te mātauranga o te pono. 8 E rite ana ki a Hāni rāua ko Hamapiri i totohe ki a Mohi; waihoki ko ēnei tāngata e totohe ana ki te pono. He hunga kua kino kē te hinengaro, he rukenga atu i roto i te whakapono. 9 Heoi, e kore rātou e kake haere. Ka kitea hoki tō rātou kūwaretanga e te katoa, ka pērā hoki me tō rāua.
Ngā Tohutohu Mutunga
10 Otirā, kua mau nā i a koe tāku whakaako, tāku whakahaere, tōku whakaaro whakatakoto, tōku whakapono, tōku pūhoi ki te riri, tōku aroha, tōku manawanui, 11 ōku whakatoinga, ōku matenga i mate ai ahau i Anatioka, i Ikoniuma, i Raihitara; ngā whakatoinga i whakatoia ai ahau. Heoi, whakaorangia ake ahau e te Ariki i roto i te katoa. 12 Ā, e whakatoia anō te hunga katoa e hiahia ana kia noho i runga i te karakia i roto i a Karaiti Īhu. 13 Ko te hunga kino ia, me te hunga māminga, ka kake haere te kino, ka tinihanga, ā, ka tinihangatia. 14 Tēnā, ko koe kia mau ki ngā mea i ako rā koe, i whakaaetia rā e koe, e mātau nā hoki koe ki tōu kaiwhakaako ki ēnā mea. 15 Ki a koe anō i mōhio o tōu tamarikitanga ake, ki ngā karaipiture tapu, ko ngā mea ērā e whai mātauranga ai koe, e ora ai, i runga i te whakapono ki a Karaiti Īhu. 16 Nō te hā o te Atua ngā karaipiture katoa, he pai hoki hei whakaako, hei riri i te hē, hei whakatikatika, hei whakaako ki te tika; 17 kia tino rite ai te tangata a te Atua, rite rawa mō ngā mahi pai katoa.
