Chapter 5 1 Kua paku noa atu te rongo he puremu kei roto i a koutou, he tu puremu kahore nei i roto i nga tauiwi, ara kua riro i tetahi o koutou te wahine a tona papa. 2 A e whakapehapeha ana koutou, te pouri koutou, te mea kia tangohia atu i roto i a koutou te tangata nana tenei mahi. 3 Na ko ahau, ahakoa tawhiti i te tinana kei kona te wairua, kua whakahe noa ake i te tangata nana tenei mahi, i runga i te ingoa o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu, me te mea kei kona ano ahau; 4 E noho huihui ana koutou me toku wairua, i runga i te kaha o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu. 5 Ka tuku atu ai i tena tu tangata ki a Hatana, hei whakangaro mo te kikokiko, kia ora ai te wairua i te ra o te Ariki, o Ihu, 6 Kahore e pai ta koutou whakapehapeha. Kahore koutou e matau he iti nei te rewena, rewenatia ake te puranga katoa? 7 Kokoa ki waho te rewena tawhito, kia ai koutou he puranga hou, me koutou e rewenakore na. Kua patua hoki mo tatou a te Karaiti, to tatou kapenga: 8 Na kia kai tatou i te hakari, auaka te rewena tawhito, auaka hoki te rewena o te mauahara, o te kino, engari hei te taro rewenakore o te tinihangakore, o te pono. 9 I tuhituhi atu ahau ki a koutou i roto i te pukapuka, kia kaua e whakahoa ki nga tangata puremu: 10 Ehara ia i te mea rawa mo te hunga puremu o tenei ao, mo te hunga apo, hao taonga, karakia whakapakoko; penei me haere atu koutou ki waho o te ao: 11 Engari inaianei ka tuhituhi atu ahau ki a koutou, kia kaua e whakahoa, ki te mea tetahi e kiia nei he teina he tangata moepuku, he apo ranei, e karakia ana ranei ki te whakapakoko, he tangata taunu ranei, he haurangi, he hao taonga ranei; kaua r awa koutou ko taua tu tangata e kai tahi. 12 Hei aha ra maku te whakawa i te hunga o waho? e kore koia koutou e whakawa i te hunga o roto, 13 A ko te hunga o waho ma te Atua ratou e whakawa? Na motuhia atu taua tangata kino i roto i a koutou.
