Ko tōu whakaaro rānei tēnei, e te tangata e whakahē ana ki ngā kaimahi i aua mea, e mahi nā anō koe i aua mea, ko koe e ora i tā te Atua whakahē? E whakahāwea ana rānei koe ki ngā rawa o tōna ngāwari, o tāna tikanga māhaki, o tōna manawanui, e ranea tonu nei; tē mahara ko te ngāwari o te Atua hei ārahi i a koe ki te rīpenetā?

Nā, kāhore he kupu whakahoki māu, e koe, e te tangata e whakahē ana; i a koe hoki e whakahē nā i tērā, e whakatau ana koe i te hē ki a koe anō; kei te mahi hoki koe, te kaiwhakahē, i aua mea nā anō.

Kāhore hoki a te Atua whakapai kanohi.

He teka hoki ko ngā kaiwhakarongo o te ture e tika ki tā te Atua; engari, ko ngā kaimahi o te ture e whakatikaia.

“Māna e hōmai ki tētahi, ki tētahi, kia rite ki ā rātou mahi.”

Ki te hunga ia e totohe ana, e turi ana ki te pono, e whakarongo ana hoki ki te hē, he riri, he āritarita.

Heoi, pakeke tonu koe, kāhore e rīpenetā tōu ngākau, e pūranga ana koe i te riri mōu, mō te rā o te riri, o te whakakitenga mai anō i tā te Atua whakawākanga tika
