Whakamātautau me Whakawai

12 Ka hari te tangata e ū ake ana ki te whakamātautauranga. Nō te mea hoki ka oti ia te whakamātautau, ka whiwhi ia ki te karauna o te ora, kua whakaaria mai nei e te Ariki mō te hunga e aroha ana ki a ia.

13 Kaua tētahi e mea ina whakamātautauria, "E whakamātautauria ana ahau e te Atua." E kore hoki te Atua e taea te whakamātautau e te kino, e kore anō hoki ia e whakamātautau i tētahi. 14 Engari he mea whakamātautau te tangata, i a ia e kūmea ana, e poaina ana e tōna hiahia ake anō. 15 Nā, i te hapūtanga o te hiahia, ka whānau ko te hara; ā, i te otinga o te hara, ka whānau ko te mate.
