| Chapter 29 |
1 |
? Ko te tangata he maha nei nga riringa i tona he, a ka whakapakeke i tona kaki, ka whatiia ohoreretia ia; te taea te rongoa. |
2 |
? Ka whakanuia te hunga tika, ka koa te iwi; ka kingi te tangata kino, ka aue te iwi. |
3 |
? Ko 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. |
4 |
? Ma te whakawa a te kingi e mau ai te whenua; ka whakataka ia e te tangata e tango ana i nga mea homai noa. |
5 |
? Ko te tangata e whakapati ana ki tona hoa, e whakatakoto kupenga ana mo ona waewae. |
6 |
? He rore kei roto i te he o te tangata kino; ko te tangata tika ia he waiata tana, he koa. |
7 |
? E mahara ana te tangata tika ki te take a te rawakore: kahore o te tangata kino whakaaro kia mohiotia e ia. |
8 |
? Ma nga tangata whakahi e tahu te pa kia mura: ko ta te hunga whakaaro nui ia he whakatahuri atu i te riri. |
9 |
? Ki te totohe te tangata whakaaro nui ki te tangata wairangi, ahakoa riri ia, kata ranei, kahore he tanga. |
10 |
? E mauahara ana te tangata whakaheke toto ki te tangata i te ngakau tapatahi: tena ko te hunga tika, ka whai ratou kia whakaorangia ia. |
11 |
? E tuakina ana e te wairangi tona riri katoa ki waho: e puritia mai ana ia e te tangata whakaaro nui, e pehia ana. |
12 |
? Ki te whakarongo te rangatira ki te teka, he kino katoa ana tangata. |
13 |
? E tutaki ana te rawakore raua ko te kaitukino ki a raua; ko Ihowa te kaiwhakamarama o nga kanohi o raua tokorua. |
14 |
? Ko te kingi e pono ana tana whakawa mo nga rawakore, ka whakapumautia tona torona ake ake. |
15 |
? Ko 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. |
16 |
? Ka tokomaha te hunga kino, ka nui te he: ka kite ia te hunga tika i to ratou hinganga. |
17 |
? Pakia tau tama, a ka whai okiokinga koe i a ia; ae ra, he ahuareka tana e homai ai ki tou wairua. |
18 |
? Ki te kahore he whakakitenga, ka kore te iwi e tupato: ko te kaipupuri ia i te ture, ka hari ia. |
19 |
? Ehara te kupu i te papaki mo te pononga: ahakoa hoki ia matau, e kore ia e rongo. |
20 |
? Ka kite ranei koe i te tangata kaika ki te korero? engari te wairangi ka totika ake i a ia. |
21 |
? Ko te tangata e penapena ana i tana pononga mai o te tamarikitanga, ka waiho ia e ia i te mutunga hei tama tupu. |
22 |
? He whakaoho whawhai ta te tangata pukuriri: he nui rawa hoki te he o te tangata aritarite. |
23 |
? Ka whakaititia iho te tangata e tona whakapehapeha: ka whai honore ia te tangata ngakau papaku. |
24 |
? Ko 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. |
25 |
? He rore e homai ana e te wehi ki te tangata: ko te tangata ia e whakawhirinaki ana ki a Ihowa ka mawhiti. |
26 |
? He tokomaha e whai ana kia paingia e te rangatira: otiia i ahu mai i a Ihowa te whakawa mo te tangata. |
27 |
? He 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. |
