12 Ehara hoki ta tatou i te pakanga ki te kikokiko, ki nga toto, engari ki nga rangatiratanga, ki nga mana, ki nga ariki o te pouri o tenei ao, ki nga taua wairua kino o nga wahi i te rangi.

12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
