Roma 12
1 Koia ahau ka inoi nei ki a koutou, e oku teina, kia whakaaroa nga mahi a te Atua, kia tapaea atu o koutou tinana hei whakahere ora, tapu, e manakohia ana e te Atua, he mahi na to koutou hinengaro.
Ko eni, ʻe kāinga, ʻoku ou kole ai kiate kimoutolu, ko e meʻa ʻi he ngaahi ʻaloʻofa ongongofua ʻae ʻOtua, ke mou ʻatu homou sino ko e feilaulau moʻui, mo māʻoniʻoni, mo lelei ki he ʻOtua, ʻaia ko e ngāue ʻoku taau mo kimoutolu ke fai.
2 Kaua hoki to koutou ahua e rite ki to tenei ao: engari kia puta ke, ara kia whakahoutia o koutou hinengaro, kia whakamatautauria ai e koutou ta te Atua e pai ai, te mea e pai ana, e manakohia ana, e tino rite ana. (aiōn g165)
Pea ʻoua naʻa fakatatau ʻakimoutolu ki he māmani: ka ke mātuʻaki liliu ʻakimoutolu ʻi he fakafoʻou ʻo homou ʻatamai, koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo pau ʻae finangalo ko ia ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻa hono lelei, mo hono ʻaonga, mo hono haohaoa. (aiōn g165)
3 Ko taku kupu hoki tenei ki nga tangata katoa i roto i a koutou, he mea na te aroha noa i homai nei ki ahau, Kaua e hira ake te whakaaro o tetahi ki a ia ano i te mea i tika kia whakaaroa e ia; engari kia ata whakaaro, kia rite ki te wahi o te wha kapono i tuwhaina e te Atua ki tena, ki tena.
He ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻofa kuo foaki kiate au, ʻoku ou tala atu ai ki he tangata taki taha kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu, ke ʻoua naʻa lelei lahi ʻene mahalo kiate ia he mahalo ʻoku totonu; ka ke mahalo fakapotopoto, ʻo fakatatau ki hono lahi ʻoe tui kuo vaheʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ki he tangata taki taha.
4 E rite ana hoki ki o tatou wahi ka maha nei i te tinana kotahi, kihai ia i kotahi te mahi ma aua wahi katoa:
He ʻoku hangē ʻoku ʻi hotau sino pe taha ʻae ngaahi kupu lahi, ka ʻoku ʻikai fai ʻae ngāue tatau pē ʻe he kupu kotoa pē:
5 Waihoki ko tatou tokomaha nei, he tinana kotahi i roto i a te Karaiti, ko tatou takitahi ia, he wahi tetahi no tetahi.
ʻOku pehē foki ʻakitautolu, ko e tokolahi, ka ko e sino pe taha ʻia Kalaisi, pea ʻoku tau feʻaongaʻaki fakataha ʻae kupu kotoa pē.
6 Na ka rere ke nei nga mea i homai ki a tatou, he mea e rite ana ki te aroha noa i homai ki a tatou, ki te mea he mahi poropiti, me poropiti, kia rite ano ki te rahi o to tatou whakapono;
Ko ia ʻi heʻetau maʻu ʻae ngaahi foaki ʻoku fai kehekehe, ʻo taau mo e ʻofa kuo foaki kiate kitautolu, kapau ko e kikite, [tau fai ia ]ʻo fakatatau mo hono lahi ʻoe tui;
7 He mahi minita, kia u tatou ki ta tatou mahi minita; ko te kaiwhakaako, kia u ki tana mahi whakaako;
Pe ko e tauhi, tau [fai ]ʻae tauhi: pe ko ia ʻoku akonaki, [ke fai ʻene ]akonaki;
8 Ko te kaiwhakahauhau, kia u ki tana whakahauhau; ko te kaihoatu, kia mahorahora te ngakau; ko te kaiwhakahaere kia uaua ki tana mahi, a ko te kaiatawhai kia ngahau te ahua.
Pe ko ia ʻoku ekinaki, [ke ne ]ekinaki: ko ia ʻoku foaki, ke [fai ia ]ʻo angatonu; ko ia ʻoku pule, [ke ]faʻa fai [ia]; ko ia ʻoku fai ʻofa, [ke fai ]ʻi he fiefie fai.
9 Ko te aroha, hei te mea tinihangakore. Kia whakarihariha ki te kino; kia u ki te pai.
Ke taʻemalualoi ʻae ʻofa. Fehiʻa ki he meʻa ʻoku kovi; piki maʻu ki he meʻa ʻoku lelei.
10 Ka aroha ki nga teina, kia tino pono te aroha tetahi ki tetahi; ka whakahonore, kia nui ta tetahi i tetahi.
Ke mou feʻofaʻaki ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻofa fakakāinga; ʻo mou felotoleleiʻaki ʻi he fefakaʻapaʻapaʻaki kiate kimoutolu;
11 Kia uaua, kaua e mangere; kia toko tonu ake te wairua; me te mahi ano ki te Ariki;
ʻOua naʻa fakapikopiko ʻi he ngāue: ka mou loto vela; ʻo tauhi ki he ʻEiki;
12 Kia hari i runga i te tumanako; kia manawanui ki te whakapawera; kia u ki te inoi;
ʻO fiefia ʻi he ʻamanaki lelei; pea faʻa kātaki ʻi he mamahi; pea fai maʻu ʻo fakakukafi ʻi he lotu;
13 Whakawhiwhia te hunga tapu ina rawakore; kia mau ki te atawhai manuhiri.
Tufaki ki he masiva ʻoe kāinga māʻoniʻoni; tuli ki he angaʻofa.
14 Manaakitia te hunga e tukino ana i a koutou: manaakitia, kaua e kanga.
Tāpuaki ʻakinautolu ʻoku fakatanga kimoutolu: tāpuakiʻi, pea ʻoua naʻa kapea.
15 Kia hari tahi me te hunga hari, kia tangi tahi me te hunga tangi.
Fiefia mo kinautolu ʻoku fiefia, pea tangi mo kinautolu ʻoku tangi.
16 Kia kotahi te whakaaro o koutou tetahi ki tetahi. Kaua e whakakake te whakaaro, engari me whakaiti ki nga mea papaku. Kei mea ake koutou he mohio koutou.
Ke felototahaʻaki ʻakimoutolu. ʻOua naʻa tokanga ki he ngaahi meʻa māʻolunga, kae tataki ʻakimoutolu ki he ngaahi meʻa māʻulalo. Pea ʻoua naʻa mou fiepoto ʻiate kimoutolu.
17 Kaua e utua ta tetahi kino ki te kino. Whakaaroa ko nga mea e pai ana ki mua i te aroaro o nga tangata katoa.
ʻOua naʻa totongi ʻae kovi ʻaki ʻae kovi ki ha taha. Fifili ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku lelei ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai kotoa pē.
18 Ki te taea, whakapaua ta koutou kia mau te rongo ki nga tangata katoa.
Pea kapau ʻe faʻa lavaʻi, mou moʻui melino pē mo e kakai kotoa pē.
19 Aua e rapu utu mo koutou, e oku hoa aroha, engari whakaatea atu i te riri: kua oti hoki te tuhituhi, Maku te rapu utu; maku te hoatu utu, e ai ta te Ariki.
ʻAe kāinga ʻofeina, ʻoua naʻa mou fai ʻae totongi koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, ka mou fakaʻataʻatā ki he houhau: he kuo tohi, “ʻOku ʻaʻaku ʻae totongi; ʻoku pehē ʻe he ʻEiki,” te u totongi pē ʻeau.
20 Na, ki te matekai tou hoariri, whangainga; ki te matewai, whakainumia: ki te penei hoki tau mahi, ka purangatia e koe he waro kapura ki tona matenga.
Ko ia, “Kapau ʻoku fiekaia ho fili, fafanga ia; kapau ʻoku fieinu, ʻatu ha inu kiate ia: koeʻuhi ʻi hoʻo fai pehē, te ke fokotuʻu ʻae malalaʻi afi ki hono ʻulu.”
21 Kei hinga koe i te kino, engari kia hinga te kino i tou pai.
ʻOua naʻa ikuna koe ʻe he kovi, kae ikuna ʻae kovi ʻaki ʻae lelei.
