Te Kinotanga o te Tangata
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi: Maharata. He Makiri, nā Rāwiri.
1Kua kī te wairangi i roto i tōna ngākau,“Kāhore he Atua.”Kua pirau rātou, he kino whakahouhou tā rātou mahi;kāhore tētahi e mahi ana i te pai.2I titiro iho te Atua i te rangi ki ngā tama a te tangata,kia kite me kāhore tētahi e mahara ana,e rapu ana i te Atua.3Kua hoki ki muri rātou katoa, kua pirau tahi;kāhore tētahi e mahi ana i te pai,kāhore kia kotahi.4E kore rānei e mōhio ngā kaimahi i te kino,e kai nei i tōku iwi, me te mea e kai taro ana;ā, kāhore e karanga ki te Atua?5Wehi noa iho rātou i reira,i te wāhi kāhore he wehi.Nō te mea kua tītaria e te Atua ngā wheua o te tangata i whakapaea ai koe;kua whakamā rātou i a koe,nō te mea kua whakahāweatia rātou e te Atua.6Auē, me i puta mai te whakaoranga o Īharaira i Hiona!Kia whakahokia mai e te Atua tāna iwi i te whakarau,ka whakamanamana a Hākopa, ka hari a Īharaira.
