Whakatauki 29

¹Ko te tangata he maha nei nga riringa i tona he, a ka whakapakeke i tona kaki, ka whatiia ohoreretia ia; te taea te rongoa.

²Ka whakanuia te hunga tika, ka koa te iwi; ka kingi te tangata kino, ka aue te iwi.

³Ko te tangata e matenui ana ki te whakaaro nui e whakahari ana i tona papa; ko te tangata ia e piri ana ki nga wahine kairau, he maumau taonga tana.

⁴Ma te whakawa a te kingi e mau ai te whenua; ka whakataka ia e te tangata e tango ana i nga mea homai noa.

⁵Ko te tangata e whakapati ana ki tona hoa, e whakatakoto kupenga ana mo ona waewae.

⁶He rore kei roto i te he o te tangata kino; ko te tangata tika ia he waiata tana, he koa.

⁷E mahara ana te tangata tika ki te take a te rawakore: kahore o te tangata kino whakaaro kia mohiotia e ia.

⁸Ma nga tangata whakahi e tahu te pa kia mura: ko ta te hunga whakaaro nui ia he whakatahuri atu i te riri.

⁹Ki te totohe te tangata whakaaro nui ki te tangata wairangi, ahakoa riri ia, kata ranei, kahore he tanga.

¹⁰E mauahara ana te tangata whakaheke toto ki te tangata i te ngakau tapatahi: tena ko te hunga tika, ka whai ratou kia whakaorangia ia.

¹¹E tuakina ana e te wairangi tona riri katoa ki waho: e puritia mai ana ia e te tangata whakaaro nui, e pehia ana.

¹²Ki te whakarongo te rangatira ki te teka, he kino katoa ana tangata.

¹³E tutaki ana te rawakore raua ko te kaitukino ki a raua; ko Ihowa te kaiwhakamarama o nga kanohi o raua tokorua.

¹⁴Ko te kingi e pono ana tana whakawa mo nga rawakore, ka whakapumautia tona torona ake ake.

¹⁵Ko te whiu, ko te riri i te he, he mea homai era i te whakaaro nui: tena ko te tamaiti mahue noa, ka whakama i a ia tona whaea.

¹⁶Ka tokomaha te hunga kino, ka nui te he: ka kite ia te hunga tika i to ratou hinganga.

¹⁷Pakia tau tama, a ka whai okiokinga koe i a ia; ae ra, he ahuareka tana e homai ai ki tou wairua.

¹⁸Ki te kahore he whakakitenga, ka kore te iwi e tupato: ko te kaipupuri ia i te ture, ka hari ia.

¹⁹Ehara te kupu i te papaki mo te pononga: ahakoa hoki ia matau, e kore ia e rongo.

²⁰Ka kite ranei koe i te tangata kaika ki te korero? engari te wairangi ka totika ake i a ia.

²¹Ko te tangata e penapena ana i tana pononga mai o te tamarikitanga, ka waiho ia e ia i te mutunga hei tama tupu.

²²He whakaoho whawhai ta te tangata pukuriri: he nui rawa hoki te he o te tangata aritarite.

²³Ka whakaititia iho te tangata e tona whakapehapeha: ka whai honore ia te tangata ngakau papaku.

²⁴Ko te tangata e whakauru ana ki ta te tahae, e kino ana ki tona ake wairua: e rongo ana ia i te kanga, kahore e kiki.

²⁵He rore e homai ana e te wehi ki te tangata: ko te tangata ia e whakawhirinaki ana ki a Ihowa ka mawhiti.

²⁶He tokomaha e whai ana kia paingia e te rangatira: otiia i ahu mai i a Ihowa te whakawa mo te tangata.

²⁷He mea whakarihariha ki te hunga tika te tangata whakahaere he; a he mea whakarihariha hoki ki te tangata kino te tangata he tika tona ara.
