5 Let your gentleness be known of all men. The Lord {is} near.

6 Be careful about nothing; but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;

7 and the peace of God, which surpasses every understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts by Christ Jesus.

5 Kia mohiotia to koutou ngakau ngawari e nga tangata katoa. Kua tata te Ariki.

6 Kaua e manukanuka ki tetahi mea; engari i nga mea katoa whakaaturia ki te Atua nga mea e matea ai e koutou, i runga i te karakia, i te inoi, me te whakawhetai hoki.

7 A ma te marie o te Atua, e kore nei e taea te whakaaro, e tiaki o koutou ngakau, o koutou hinengaro, i roto i a Karaiti Ihu.
