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.
1Ko te tangata he ngoikore te whakapono, manakohia, kauaka ia ki nga tautohe whakaaro.
2Ko tetahi hoki e whakapono ana he pai nga mea katoa hei kai mana: ko te tangata ia he ngoikore tona whakapono e kai otaota ana.
3Kaua te tangata e kai ana e whakahawea ki te tangata kahore e kai, kaua hoki te tangata kahore e kai e whakahe i te tangata e kai ana: kua manakohia hoki ia e te Atua.
4Ko wai koe e whakahe na i te pononga a tera? ma tona rangatira ia e whakatu, e whakahinga ranei. Ina, ka whakaturia ano ia: e taea hoki ia e te Atua te whakatu.
5Ki te whakaaro a tetahi, nui atu tetahi ra i tetahi: ki a tetahi whakaaro ia he rite katoa nga ra. Kia u marire nga whakaaro o tetahi, o tetahi.
6Ko te tangata e whakaaro ana ki te ra, he whakaaro ki te Ariki tona whakaaro; ko te tangata e kai ana, he whakaaro ki te Ariki tana kai, e whakawhetai atu ana hoki ia ki te Atua; ko te tangata kahore e kai, he whakaaro ki te Ariki tana kore e kai, e whakawhetai ana ano ia ki te Atua.
7Ehara hoki i te mea ki a ia ake ano te ora o tetahi o tatou, ehara hoki i te mea ki a ia ake te mate o tetahi.
8Ta te mea, ahakoa ora, e ora ana tatou ki te Ariki; ahakoa mate, e mate ana tatou ki te Ariki: na, ahakoa ora tatou, mate ranei, na te Ariki tatou.
9Ko te mea hoki tenei i mate ai a te Karaiti, i ara ake ai ano, i ora ai ano, kia waiho ai ia hei Ariki ngatahi mo te hunga mate, mo te hunga ora.
10Ko koe na, he aha koe i whakahe ai i tou teina? me koe na hoki, he aha koe i whakahawea ai ki tou teina? e tu katoa hoki tatou ki te nohoanga whakawa o te Atua.
11Kua oti hoki te tuhituhi, E ora ana ahau, e ai ta te Ariki, e piko katoa nga turi ki ahau, e whakaae ano hoki nga arero katoa ki te Atua.
12Ae ra, ka korerotia e tenei, e tenei o tatou te tikanga o ana mahi ki te Atua.
13Na, kati ta tatou whakahe tetahi i tetahi: engari ko tenei kia rite i a koutou, kia kaua e whakatakotoria he tutukitanga waewae, he take whakahinga ranei mo tona teina.
14E mohio ana ahau, u tonu toku whakaaro i roto i te Ariki, i a Ihu, kahore he mea nona ake ano tona noa: haunga ia ki te mea tetahi he noa tetahi mea, e noa ano ki a ia.
15Ki te mea hoki na te kai i pouri ai tou teina, kahore e mau ana tau haere i runga i te aroha. kei mate i tau kai te tangata i mate nei a te Karaiti mona.
16Na, kei korerotia kinotia to koutou pai:
17Ehara hoki te rangatiratanga o te Atua i te kai, i te inu; engari he tika, he rangimarie, he hari i roto i te Wairua Tapu.
18Ko te tangata hoki ko enei hei mahinga mana ki a te Karaiti, ka ahuarekatia ia e te Atua, ka paingia hoki e nga tangata.
19Na, kia whai tatou i nga mea e mau ai te rongo, i nga mea ano hoki e hanga ai te pai o tetahi, o tetahi.
20Kaua e waiho te kai hei whakahoro mo ta te Atua mahi. He ma hoki nga mea katoa; otiia he kino ki te tangata e kai ana me te whakahe tona ngakau.
21He mea pai tonu kia kaua e kai kikokiko, kia kaua e inu waina, aha ranei e tutuki ai tou teina.
22Ko te whakapono i a koe na, waiho i a koe ano i te aroaro o te Atua. Ka hari te tangata kahore e whakatau i te he ki a ia ano mo te mea i whakapaia e ia mana.
23Ki te ruarua ia tetahi, ka tau te he ki a ia ki te kai ia: no te mea ehara i te kai whakapono: he hara hoki nga mea katoa kihai nei i puta ake i te whakapono.
