kua hara katoa hoki, ā, kāhore e taea e rātou te korōria o te Atua; he mea whakatika utukore nā tōna aroha noa, i runga i tā Karaiti Īhu hokonga

arā, ko te tika a te Atua e nā runga mai ana i te whakapono ki a Īhu Karaiti ki te hunga katoa e whakapono ana. Kāhore hoki he pokanga kētanga

ko ia hoki tā te Atua i whakaari ai hei whakamārie, i runga i te whakapono, he mea nā ōna toto. Kia whakakitea ai tōna tika, i te mea ka whakapahemotia atu ngā hara ō mua, he mea hoki nā te manawanui o te Atua; hei whakakite i tōna tika i tēnei wā nei anō; he mea kia tika ai ia anō, me te kaiwhakatika i te tangata e whakapono ana ki a Īhu.

Nō te mea kāhore he mahi o te ture e tika ai tētahi kikokiko i tōna aroaro; mā roto mai i te ture te mātauranga ki te hara.

ko te mea hoki ia i tuhituhia: “Kāhore he tangata tika, kāhore kia kotahi; kāhore he tangata e mātau ana, kāhore he tangata e rapu ana i te Atua. Kua peka kē rātou katoa, kua kino ngātahi; kāhore he tangata e mahi ana i te pai, kāhore rawa kia kotahi.

Koia mātou ka mea ai, kei te whakapono he tika mō te tangata, motu kē i ngā mahi o te ture.

Kāhore rāpea! Engari ko te Atua kia kitea he pono, ko ngā tāngata katoa he teka kau; ko te mea hoki ia i tuhituhia, “Kia tika ai tāu i tāu kōrerotanga, kia puta ai tāu ina whakawākia koe.”
