1 Kia mau tonu te aroha ki nga teina.

2 Kei wareware ki te atawhai manuhiri: na tenei hoki i whakamanuhiri anahera ai etahi, kihai ano i matau atu.

3 Maharatia nga herehere, me te mea no koutou tahi te hereherenga; me te hunga hoki e whakatupuria kinotia ana, kei te tinana na hoki koutou.

4 Meinga te marena hei mea honore ma te katoa, a kaua te moenga e tukua kia poke: ko te hunga moepuku ia, me te hunga puremu, e whakataua e te Atua te he ki a ratou.

5 Whakakahoretia atu te mahi apo taonga; kati ano nga mea ma koutou ko nga mea i a koutou na: kua mea mai hoki ia, E kore ahau e whakarere i a koe, e kore ano hoki e mawehe i a koe.

6 Heoi ka maia tatou ki te ki ake, Kei toku taha te Ariki, e kore ahau e mataku ki ta te tangata e mea ai ki ahau.

7 Kia mahara ki te hunga e tohutohu ana i a koutou, kua korero nei i te kupu a te Atua ki a koutou: tirohia te tukunga iho o ta ratou whakahaere, kia rite to koutou ki to ratou whakapono.

8 Tuturu tonu a Ihu Karaiti inanahi, inaianei, a ake ake.

9 Kei kahakihakina koutou e nga whakaakoranga maha, e nga mea poka hou ake: he mea pai hoki kia whakaukia te ngakau ki runga i te aroha noa; ehara i te mea ki nga kai, kahore hoki he pai o ena mea mo te hunga na ratou nei tera mahi.

10 He aata ano ta tatou, e kore nei e tika kia kainga tona e te hunga e mahi ana i ta te tapenakara.

11 Na, ko nga kararehe no ratou nei nga toto e mauria ana e te tohunga nei mo te hara ki roto ki te wahi tino tapu, e tahuna ana nga tinana o era ki waho o te puni.

12 Na reira hoki a Ihu, i tana whakatapunga i te iwi ki ona toto ake ano, i mamae ai ki waho o te kuwaha.

13 Na, kia haere atu tatou ki a ia ki waho o te puni, me te mau ano tatou i tona tawainga:

14 Kahore hoki he pa tumau mo tatou i konei, engari e rapu ana tatou i tetahi i roto i nga wa a muri nei.

15 Na, kia tapaea atu e tatou ki runga ki a ia i nga wa katoa te whakamoemiti ki te Atua hei whakahere, ara te hua o nga ngutu e whakawhetai ana ki tona ingoa.

16 Kei wareware hoki ki te mahi pai, ki te atawhai: e manakohia ana hoki e te Atua nga patunga tapu pera.

17 Kia ngohengohe ki o koutou kaitohutohu, kia ngawari ki ta ratou kupu; e mataara ana hoki ratou ki o koutou wairua, a me korero ano e ratou a mua te tikanga o a ratou mahi: kia hari ai ratou ina mea i tenei, kia kaua hoki e pouri: kahore hoki he pai o tenei mo koutou.

18 Inoi mo matou: u tonu hoki to matou whakaaro ki to matou hinengaro he pai, e hiahia ana hoki matou kia tika ta matou whakahaere i nga mea katoa.

19 I kaha rawa ai taku whakahau ki a koutou kia meatia tenei, he mea kia wawe ai ahau te whakahokia atu ki a koutou.

20 Na, ma te Atua o te rangimarie, nana nei i whakahoki mai i roto i te hunga mate to tatou Ariki, a Ihu, taua Hepara nui o nga hipi, he meatanga na nga toto o te kawenata mutungakore,

21 Mana koutou e mea kia tino tika i runga i nga mahi pai katoa, kia mahia ano e koutou tana i pai ai; mana e mahi i roto i a koutou te mea e ahuareka ana ki tana titiro, i roto ano i a Ihu Karaiti; waiho atu i a ia te kororia ake ake. Amine.

22 He kupu ano tenei naku ki a koutou, e oku teina, ata whakarangona mai te kupu whakahau: he torutoru nei hoki nga kupu kua tuhituhia atu nei e ahau ki a koutou.

23 Kia matau koutou kua tukua ki waho to tatou teina, a Timoti. Ki te haere wawe mai ia, ko maua tahi e kite i a koutou.

24 Oha atu ki te hunga katoa e tohutohu ana i a koutou, ki te hunga tapu katoa ano hoki. Tenei te oha atu nei ki a koutou te hunga o Itari.

25 Kia tau te aroha noa ki a koutou katoa. Amine.

1 Let brotherly love remain;

2 of the hospitality be not forgetful, for through this unawares certain did entertain messengers;

3 be mindful of those in bonds, as having been bound with them, of those maltreated, as also yourselves being in the body;

4 honourable [is] the marriage in all, and the bed undefiled, and whoremongers and adulterers God shall judge.

5 Without covetousness the behaviour, being content with the things present, for He hath said, `No, I will not leave, no, nor forsake thee,`

6 so that we do boldly say, `The Lord [is] to me a helper, and I will not fear what man shall do to me.`

7 Be mindful of those leading you, who did speak to you the word of God, whose faith -- considering the issue of the behaviour -- be imitating,

8 Jesus Christ yesterday and to-day the same, and to the ages;

9 with teachings manifold and strange be not carried about, for [it is] good that by grace the heart be confirmed, not with meats, in which they who were occupied were not profited;

10 we have an altar, of which to eat they have no authority who the tabernacle are serving,

11 for of those beasts whose blood is brought for sin into the holy places through the chief priest -- of these the bodies are burned without the camp.

12 Wherefore, also Jesus -- that he might sanctify through [his] own blood the people -- without the gate did suffer;

13 now, then, may we go forth unto him without the camp, his reproach bearing;

14 for we have not here an abiding city, but the coming one we seek;

15 through him, then, we may offer up a sacrifice of praise always to God, that is, the fruit of lips, giving thanks to His name;

16 and of doing good, and of fellowship, be not forgetful, for with such sacrifices God is well-pleased.

17 Be obedient to those leading you, and be subject, for these do watch for your souls, as about to give account, that with joy they may do this, and not sighing, for this [is] unprofitable to you.

18 Pray for us, for we trust that we have a good conscience, in all things willing to behave well,

19 and more abundantly do I call upon [you] to do this, that more quickly I may be restored to you.

20 And the God of the peace, who did bring up out of the dead the great shepherd of the sheep -- in the blood of an age-during covenant -- our Lord Jesus,

21 make you perfect in every good work to do His will, doing in you that which is well-pleasing before Him, through Jesus Christ, to whom [is] the glory -- to the ages of the ages! Amen.

22 And I entreat you, brethren, suffer the word of the exhortation, for also through few words I have written to you.

23 Know ye that the brother Timotheus is released, with whom, if he may come more shortly, I will see you.

24 Salute all those leading you, and all the saints; salute you doth those from Italy:

25 the grace [is] with you all! Amen.
