35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

35 Ma wai tatou e momotu ke i te aroha o te Karaiti? Ma te whakapawera ranei, ma te mamae, ma te whakatoi, ma e matekai, ma te kakahukore, ma te mate ka tata, ma te hoari ranei?

36 Ko te mea hoki ia i tuhituhia, Na te whakaaro ki a koe matou i whakamatea ai i te ra roa nei; kiia ana matou hei hipi e patua ana.

37 Engari i enei mea katoa hira ake te wikitoria i a tatou, he mea nana i aroha nei ki a tatou.

38 U tonu hoki toku whakaaro, e kore te mate, te ora ranei, e kore nga anahera, nga rangatiratanga ranei, e kore nga mea onaianei, e kore nga mea e puta mai a mua, e kore nga mana,

39 E kore te tiketike, e kore te hohonu, e kore tetahi atu mea hanga, e kaha ki te momotu i a tatou i te aroha o te Atua, i tera i roto nei i a Karaiti Ihu, i to tatou Ariki.
