1 ¶ Hoki mai, e Iharaira, ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua: kua taka hoki koe i tou he.2 Tikina etahi kupu ma koutou, tahuri mai hoki ki a Ihowa: mea atu ki a ia, Whakakahoretia katoatia atu te he, kia manako mai ki te mea pai: a ka hoatu e matou ano he puru te whakahere, ara o matou ngutu.3 E kore matou e ora i a Ahuru; e kore matou e eke hoiho, a heoi ano a matou kianga atu ki te mahi a o matou ringa, Ko koutou o matou atua: e arohaina ana hoki te pani e koe.

4 ¶ Ka rongoatia e ahau to ratou tahuri ke, ka aroha ahau ki a ratou, he mea utukore: no te mea kua tahuri toku riri i a ia.5 Ko taku ki a Iharaira ka rite ki te tomairangi; ka rite tona tupu ki to te rengarenga, te totoro o ona pakiaka ka rite ki to Repanona.6 Ka tautoro ona manga, ka rite tona ataahua ki to te oriwa, tona kakara ki to Repanona.7 Ko te hunga e noho ana i raro i tona marumaru ka hoki mai: ka ora ake ratou, ka pera me te witi, ka rite to ratou tupu ki to te waina: ko tona kakara ka rite ki to te waina o Repanona.

8 ¶ Tera a Eparaima e ki, Hei aha ake maku nga whakapakoko? kua rongo ahau ki a ia, kua kite i a ia; ko toku rite kei te kauri matomato. Ka kitea ki ahau he hua mou.9 Ko wai te mea whakaaro nui hei matau ki enei mea? ko wai te mea tupato e mohiotia ai? tika tonu hoki nga ara a Ihowa, a ka haere te hunga tika i reira, ka taka ia te hunga he i reira.
