Wāhanga 106
He whakakitenga mā roto i a Hōhepa Mete te Poropiti, ki Katarana, Ohaio, Noema 25, 1834. E hāngai atu ana tēnei whakakitenga ki a Warena A. Kauteri, he tuakana nō Oriwa Kauteri.
1–3, Kua karangatia a Warena A. Kauteri hei kaiwhakahaere; 4–5, E kore te Haerenga Tuaruatanga Mai e hipa atu i ngā tamariki o te māramatanga anō nei he kaiwhānako; 6–8, Ka whai ngā manaakitanga nui i ngā mahi pono i roto i te Hāhi.
1 Ko tāku e pai ai kia whakataua, ā, kia whakamanaia taku pononga a Warena A. Kauteri hei pirihi teitei i runga i taku hāhi, i te whenua o te Herekoretanga me ngā rohe huri noa;
2 Ā, me kauhau i taku rongopai mau tonu, ā, hīkina ake tōna reo me te whakatūpato i te iwi, kaua noa iho i tōna ake wāhi, engari i ngā whenua e hono ana;
3 Me whakapau ōna wā katoa ki tēnei karangatanga teitei, ki tēnei karangatanga tapu, e hoatu nei au ki a ia, e rapu mārire ana te kīngitanga o te rangi me tōna tika, ā, ka tāpirihia atu ngā mea katoa e tika ana ki reira; nā te mea e tika ana kia utua te kaimahi.
4 Hei āpiti anō, he pono tāku e mea atu nei ki a koutou, e whakatata mai ana te haerenga mai a te Ariki, ā, e hipa atu ana i te ao anō nei he kaiwhānako i te pō—
5 Nō reira, whītikina ake ō hope, kia meinga koutou hei tamariki nā te māramatanga, ā, e kore taua rā e hipa atu i a koutou anō nei he kaiwhānako.
6 Hei āpiti anō, he pono tāku e mea atu nei ki a koutou, he hari i te rangi i te wā i tuohu iho taku pononga a Warena ki taku hapeta, ā, e whakawehea atu e ia anō i ngā mahinga a te tangata;
7 Nō reira, kua manaakitia taku pononga a Warena, nā te mea ka aroha au ki a ia; ā, hei aha koa te horihori o tōna ngākau, māku ia e hiki ake ki te mea ka whakaiti i a ia anō i tōku aroaro.
8 Ā, ka tuku aroha, ka tuku mātauranga ki a ia kia pūmau ai tana tū; ā, mehemea ka ū tonu ia hei kaiwhakaatu pono, ā, hei māramatanga ki te hāhi kua whakaritea e au mōna tētahi karauna i roto i ngā whare nunui o tōku Matua. Koia anō. Āmine.
