1 Coríntios 7

12 Ki ērā atu ia ko tāku kupu tēnei, ehara i te Ariki. Ki te mea he wahine kore whaka­pono tā tētahi o ngā tēina, ā, ka whaka­ae taua wahine kia noho tahi rāua, kaua ia e whaka­rērea e ia. 13 Ā, ko te wahine, he tāne kore whaka­pono tāna, ā, ka whaka­ae kia noho tahi rāua, kaua ia e whaka­rere tāna tāne. 14 Nō te mea e whaka­tapua ana te tāne whaka­pono kore e te wahine e whaka­tapua ana hoki te wahine whaka­pono kore e te tāne. Me he kāhore, kua poke ā kōrua tama­riki, tēnā ko tēnei he tapu rātou.
