João 15

Ko Īhu te Wāina Pono

1 "Ko ahau te wāina pono, ko tōku Matua te kai­mahi. 2 Ko ngā manga katoa i roto i ahau e kore e whai hua, e tango­hia e ia. Ko ngā mea katoa hoki e whai hua ana, ka whaka­paia e ia, kia maha atu ai ōna hua. 3 Nā, kua mā tēnei koutou i te kupu i kōrero­tia e ahau ki a koutou. 4 Kia ū koutou ki roto ki ahau, me ahau hoki ki roto ki a koutou. Ka rite hoki ki te manga e kore e whai hua ko ia anake, ki te kāhore e ū ki te wāina; e kore anō hoki koutou, ki te kore e ū ki roto ki ahau.

5 "Ko ahau te wāina, ko koutou ngā manga. Ki te ū tētahi ki roto ki ahau, me ahau hoki ki roto ki a ia, ka maha o tērā hua; ki te motu kē hoki i ahau, e kore tētahi mea e taea e koutou.
