Kwabase Roma 4

¹¶ He aha ra, ki ta tatou, te mea i riro i a Aperahama, i to tatou tupuna i runga i te kikokiko?

²Mehemea hoki na nga mahi i tika ai a Aperahama, he mea tana e whakamanamana ai ia; otira kahore ki te Atua.

³E pehea ana oti ta te karaipiture? I whakapono a Aperahama ki te Atua, a whakairia ana hei tika mona.

⁴Na he tangata e mahi ana, e kore e kiia te utu mona he mea aroha noa, engari he mea mo tana.

⁵Otira ko te tangata kahore e mahi, engari e whakapono ana ki te kaiwhakatika i te tangata karakiakore, ka whakairia tona whakapono hei tika mona.

⁶Pera hoki me ta Rawiri korero i te manaaki ki te tangata, ka whakairia nei e te Atua he tika ki a ia, motu ke i nga mahi,

⁷I ki ai ia, Ka hari te hunga kua oti a ratou mahi tutu te muru, o ratou hara te hipoki:

⁸Ka hari te tangata e kore nei e whakairia e te Ariki he hara ki a ia.

⁹¶ E korerotia ana ranei tenei haringa mo te kotinga, mo te kotingakore ano ranei? e mea ana hoki tatou, I whakairia tona whakapono hei tika mo Aperahama.

¹⁰He pehea ra te whakairinga? i a ia i te kotinga, i te kotingakore ranei? He teka i a ia i te kotinga, engari i te kotingakore:

¹¹A riro ana i a ia te kotinga hei tohu, hei hiri mo te tika o tona whakapono, i a ia i te kotingakore: kia waiho ai ia hei matua ki te hunga katoa e whakapono ana, ahakoa kahore ratou i kotia, kia whakairia ai te tika ki a ratou;

¹²Hei matua ano mo te kotinga ki te hunga ehara i te mea no te kotinga anake, engari e takahi ana hoki i runga i nga tapuae o taua whakapono o to tatou matua, o Aperahama, i a ia kahore ano i kotia.

¹³Ehara i te mea i na runga mai i te ture te kupu ki a Aperahama ratou ko ona uri mo te ao ka riro i a ia; engari i na runga mai i te tika o te whakapono.

¹⁴Mehemea hoki ka riro i te hunga ture, kua tikangakore te whakapono, kua taka te kupu whakaari:

¹⁵Ko ta te ture hoki e mahi ai, he riri; engari ki te kahore he ture, kahore hoki he hara.

¹⁶Koia i na rototia ai i te whakapono, kia waiho ai ma te aroha noa; kia u ai te kupu whakaari ki te whanau katoa; ehara i te mea ki to te ture anake, engari ki to te whakapono ano o Aperahama, ko ia nei hoki te matua o tatou katoa,

¹⁷¶ Ko te mea hoki ia i tuhituhia, Kua waiho koe e ahau hei matua ki nga iwi maha, he matua i te aroaro o tana i whakapono ai, ara o te Atua, e whakaora nei i nga tupapaku, e karanga nei i nga mea kua kahore me te mea kei konei nei ano.

¹⁸Ahakoa kahore he rawa, u tonu tona manakonako ki a ia, kia meinga ai ia hei matua mo nga iwi maha, pera me te mea i korerotia, Ka penei tau whanau.

¹⁹Kihai ano i ngoikore tona whakapono, i mahara iho ia ki tona tinana, he penei me te mea kua tupapakutia, wahi iti hoki kua kotahi rau ona tau, ki te tupapakutanga hoki o te kopu o Hera:

²⁰Ae, i titiro ia ki te kupu whakaari a te Atua, kihai ia i ruarua i runga i te whakaponokore, engari ka kaha tonu tona whakapono, me te whakakororia ki te Atua,

²¹U tonu hoki tona whakaaro e taea e ia te mea tana i korero ai.

²²Koia hoki i whakairia ai ki a ia hei tika.

²³¶ Otira ehara i te mea he whakaaro ki a ia anake i tuhituhia ai taua whakairinga ki a ia;

²⁴Engari he whakaaro ki a tatou ano hoki; ka whakairia ki a tatou e whakapono nei ki te kaiwhakaara i a Ihu, i to tatou Ariki, i te hunga mate:

²⁵I tukua nei mo o tatou he, i whakaarahia mo tatou kia whakatikaia.
