9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
1Kia ngohengohe nga wairua katoa ki nga mana nunui. Kahore hoki he mana, no te Atua anake: ko nga mana o tenei wa he mea whakarite na te Atua.
2Na, ki te whakakeke tetahi ki te mana, e whakakeke ana ia ki ta te Atua i whakarite ai: a ko te mea hoki mo te hunga e whakakeke ana, he whakatau he.
3Ehara hoki nga rangatira i te whakawehi mo nga mahi pai, engari mo nga mahi kino. E mea ana koe kia kaua e wehi i te mana? meatia te pai, a he whakamoemiti tana e homai ai ki a koe:
4He minita hoki ia na te Atua ki a koe mo te pai. Tena ki te mahi koe i te kino, e wehi ra; ehara hoki tana i te mau noa i te hoari: he minita hoki ia na te Atua, he kairapu utu mo te riri ki te kaimahi i te kino.
5Koia i takoto ai te tikanga kia ngohengohe koutou, ehara i te mea he whakaaro kau ki te riri, engari ki ta te hinengaro ano hoki.
6Na konei hoki koutou i hoatu ai i te takoha: he minita hoki ratou na te Atua, he hunga hoki e mau tonu ana ki tenei mea pu ano.
7Hoatu nga mea i tika ki te katoa: he takoha tangata ki te tangata i tika ai te takoha tangata; he takoha taonga ki te tangata i tika ai te takoha taonga; he wehi ki te tangata i tika ai te wehi; he honore ki te tangata i tika ai te honore.
8Kaua e nama ki tetahi, ko te aroha anake o tetahi ki tetahi; ko te tangata hoki e aroha ana ki tona hoa tata, kua whakaritea e ia te ture.
9Ko tenei hoki, Kaua e puremu, Kaua e patu tangata, Kaua e tahae, Kaua e hiahia ki ta te tangata; a ki te mea tera atu ano tetahi kupu ako, ka whakarapopototia ki roto ki tenei kupu, ara, Kia aroha ki tou hoa tata, ano ko koe.
10E kore te aroha e kino ki tona hoa; no reira ko te aroha te whakaritenga o te ture.
11Tenei ano hoki tetahi, e mohio ana tatou ki te taima, kua taka noa ake tenei te wa e ara ake ai koutou i te moe: kua tata ke hoki inaianei to tatou whakaoranga i to te wa i whakapono tuatahi ai tatou.
12Kua aua atu te po, ka tata te ao: mo konei ra kia whakarerea e tatou nga mahi o te pouri, kia kakahuria iho nga kakahu whawhai o te marama.
13Kia pai ta tatou haere, kia rite ki to te awatea: kauaka i nga kakainga, i nga haurangitanga, kaua i te puremu, i nga hiahia taikaha, kaua i te ngangau, i te hae.
14Engari kakahuria iho te Ariki, a Ihu Karaiti, kaua hoki e whakaaroa wawetia te kikokiko kia mahia ko ona hiahia.
