55 E te mate kei hea tou wero? E te reinga kei hea tou wikitoria?

56 Ko te hara to te mate wero; na te ture hoki i kaha ai te hara:

57 Ki te Atua ia te whakawhetai, nana nei i homai te wikitoria ki a tatou, he meatanga na to tatou Ariki, na Ihu Karaiti.

55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? 56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
