Te Ora i roto i te Wairua
1 Nā, kāhore e tau te hē ināianei ki te hunga i roto i a Karaiti Īhu. 2 Nā te ture hoki a te Wairua o te ora i roto i a Karaiti Īhu ahau i ātea ai i te ture a te hara, a te mate. 3 Ko te mea kīhai i taea e te ture, he ngoikore nōna i te kikokiko, tonoa mai ana e te Atua tāna Tama, i te āhua o te kikokiko hara, hei whakahere anō mō te hara, ā, whakataua ana e ia te hē ki te hara i roto i te kikokiko. 4 Kia rite ai tō te ture tikanga i roto i a tātou, kāhore nei e haere i runga i tā te kikokiko, engari, i tā te Wairua.
5 Ko te hunga hoki i runga i tā te kikokiko, whakaaro ana rātou ki ō te kikokiko; ko te hunga ia i runga i tā te Wairua, ki ō te Wairua. 6 Ko tō te kikokiko whakaaro hoki he mate, ko tō te Wairua ia he ora, he rangimārie. 7 He tikanga whawhai hoki ki te Atua te whakaaro ki te kikokiko e kore nei hoki e ngāwari ki te ture a te Atua, kāhore anō e āhei kia ngāwari; 8 ā, e kore e taea e te hunga i te kikokiko te whakamānawareka ki te Atua.
9 Otiia, kāhore koutou i te kikokiko, engari, i te Wairua, ki te mea e noho ana te Wairua o te Atua i roto i a koutou. Ki te kāhore ia te Wairua o te Karaiti i tētahi, ehara tēnei i a ia. 10 Tēnā, ki te mea kei roto a te Karaiti i a koutou, he tūpāpaku te tinana i te hara, he ora ia te wairua i te tika. 11 Ki te noho ia i roto i a koutou te Wairua o te kaiwhakaara o Īhu i te hunga mate, māna, mā te kaiwhakaara o Karaiti Īhu i roto i te hunga mate, e whakaora ake anō ō koutou tinana mate ki tōna Wairua e noho nā i roto i a koutou.
