1 Pedro 2

21 Nō te mea i karanga­tia koutou ki tēnei, i whaka­mamae­tia hoki a te Karaiti mō koutou, waiho iho ana e ia he tauira mō koutou, kia aru ai koutou i ōna tapu­wae. 22 Kīhai nei ia i mea i te hara, kāhore anō hoki i kitea te tini­hanga i tōna māngai. 23 Ka taunu­tia, kīhai ia i taunu atu; ka whaka­mamae­tia, kīhai ia i whaka­tuma; engari, i tuku i a ia ki te kai­whaka­wā tika. 24 Nāna ake i waha ō tātou hara, nā tōna tinana ake, i runga i te rākau, kia whaka­tūpā­paku ai tātou ki te hara, kia ora ai ki te tika. Nā ōna kārawa­rawa, i ora ai ō koutou mate.
