Kāhore hoki ōku whakamā ki te rongopai; ko te kaha hoki ia o te Atua hei whakaora mō ngā tāngata katoa e whakapono ana; mō te Hūrai ki mua, mō te Kariki anō hoki.

Ā, kei reira e whakakitea ana tā te Atua tika, he mea nō te whakapono ki te whakapono; kua oti nei hoki te tuhituhi, “Mā te whakapono e ora ai te tangata tika.”

E kitea nuitia ana hoki ngā mea ōna, kāhore nei i kitea, nō te hanganga iho rā o te ao, e mōhiotia ana ki ngā mea i hangā, arā tōna kaha mau tonu, me tōna atuatanga; kia kore ai he kupu whakahoki mā rātou

i a rātou hoki e mātau ana ki te Atua, kīhai rātou i whakakorōria i a ia hei Atua, kīhai hoki i whakawhetai; heoi, kua kūware ō rātou whakaaro, ā, whakapōuritia ana tō rātou ngākau pōhēhē.

i te mea kua whakawhiti rātou i tō te Atua pono mō te teka, ā, karakia ana, mahi ana ki te mea hanga, kapea ake te Kaihanga, ko ia nei te whakapaingia ake ake. Āmine.

E whakakitea iho ana hoki i te rangi tō te Atua riri ki ngā karakiakoretanga katoa, ki ngā hē o ngā tāngata e pēhi ana i te pono i runga i te hē.

Koia rātou i tukua ai e te Atua ki ngā hiahia tūtūā. Ko ā rātou wāhine hoki, mahue ake i a rātou te tikanga māori, kei te ngau kē noa atu; me ngā tāne anō, whakarērea ake e rātou te tikanga māori ki te wahine, ānō he ahi te kānga o tō rātou hiahia ki a rātou anō; ngā tāne ki ngā tāne, mahi ai i te mea whakamā, me te whiwhi anō ki te utu e rite ana mō tō rātou ngaunga kētanga. Ā, i a rātou kīhai nei i pai kia mau tonu te Atua ki ō rātou mahara, tukua ana rātou e te Atua ki te hinengaro hē kia mahia ngā mea kāhore e tau kia mahia.

I a rātou e mea ana he mōhio rātou, nā, ka wairangi, ā, whakaputaia kētia ake te korōria o te Atua e kore nei e pirau, kia rite ki te āhua o te tangata pirau noa, o ngā manu hoki, o ngā kararehe waewae whā, o ngā mea ngōkingōki.
