11 Ehara taku e korero nei i te mea mo te rawakore: kua ako hoki ahau, ahakoa kei hea ahau e noho ana, kia tatu toku ngakau i reira.

12 Ko te whakahoki i ahau ki raro, matau tonu i ahau; ko te whai rawa, matau tonu i ahau: i nga wahi katoa, i nga mea katoa, ka oti ahau te whakaako, kia makona, a kia mate i te kai, kia whai rawa, a kia rawakore ranei.

13 Ka taea e ahau nga mea katoa i roto i a te Karaiti e whakakaha nei i ahau.

11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. 12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. 13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
