Mateus 13

14 Ā, ka rite i a rātou te poropititanga a Ihāia, e mea nei:

‘Rongo noa koutou, kāhore e mātau;

titiro noa koutou, kāhore e kite.

15 Kua mātotoru hoki te ngākau o tēnei iwi,

kua pūhoi ngā taringa ki te whakarongo,

ko ngā kanohi kua oti te whakamoe e rātou;

kei kite ō rātou kanohi,

kei rongo ngā taringa,

ā, ka mātau te ngākau,

nā, ka tahuri rātou,

ā, ka whakaorangia e ahau.’

16 "Ka koa ia ō koutou kanohi, nō te mea ka kite; ō koutou taringa hoki, nō te mea ka rongo.
