TE WHAI-KORERO A TE PIHOPA.
E hoa ma, e nga Minita, e nga Mangai o te : Iwi; Tena koutou. I E powhiri tena i a koutou kua huihui k : mai nei kia tirotiro tahi tatou ki te ahua o te tupu o te mahi a to tatou Ariki i roto 18 tatou, me kore e kitea e tatou he tikanga e taea ai te pehi i nga mea e rere ke ana, te tautoko hoki i nga mea e rite ai te mahi a te tangata ki ta te Atua i pai ai. Tena kua rongo koutou ki te Hinota Nui o to tatou nei Hahi i whakaminea ki Otakou i TUATAU KARE ak ne. Terahi mea aū a tāua
Hinota he whakaputa i te whakaaro ki te taha Maori o te Hahi, he mea kia tautokona nuitia e te taha Pakeha, kia uru tahi hoki te taha Pakeha me te taha Maori ki te whakahoki mai ki a Te Karaiti i nga iwi kūäa whakarere nei ite whakapono. Tetahi kupu i puta i taua Hinota, i kiia hoki kia whakapuakina ki nga hoa Maori, koia tena : "Ka nui te whakawhetai a tenei Hinota ite mea ka kite nei I te tupu o te whakaaro i roto 1 nga tangata Maori ō tē Hahi kia riro ma ratou ano ē hapāi nga mahi ate Hahii roto i a ratou, me te whai ano ratou, ko te Kingitanga o to tatou Ariki kia nui haere." Ma kona, ma te tiketike hoki ote tahua moni a o tatou hoa Pakeha mō tenei mahi, i tae nei ki te 432721 te taa kua pahure nei, ka kitea ai te nui o to ratou whakaaro, o to ratoū 'arohā ki te TTal "Maori. Otira e kore e tika kia wäiō Ki "eūnga ki a ratou anake te pito taimahai; engari me puta ano te uaua o te Iwi Māori, ite mea kua whai taonga nei, ehara hoki i tē rawakore. Tetahi ki a Te Hinota Nui, ko te oranga mo te Minita Maori kia whakarawakatia, kia kore ai la e kumea ketia e te kimi kai hei oranga mona, mo nga tangata hoki o tona whare. E taea ano koki tenei me he mea e whai ngakau ana te tangata. Te mea i whai oranga ai nga Minita Pakeha, he hono tonu no te kohikohi i nga Ratapu katoa. Me whakapumau tena hei mahi ma te iwi Māori, kia rite ai ki ta Te Karai ī whakarite a: KO te kai-kauwhau a te Rongo pai, hei te Rongo-pai ano he oranga mona, He whakamahara hoki tena i a koutou ki te wero u Te Wiremu, Atirikona, e takoto tonu nei, kahore ano kiaeanoa. -He matenui tenei no te Hahi Maori, ina hoki he tohu no te mangere, no te ngakau-kore. I puta ai te kupu whakamoemiti a te Hinota Nui, he whakaoho i nga hoa Maori kia kakama tonu ki enei mahi. Gtira kia tupato tatou kei hoha o tatou hoa Pakeha; kei ki, "He maumau kohikohi noa i te moni hei tautoko ite Hahi Maori, kahore nei hoki e kakama ngatahi." E. mohio ana ano ia, tatou, ehara te nui 'o te moni kohikohi i te mea e kitea ai te ora ote whakapono, e taea nei hoki e te tangata wha-kapono-kore te kohikohi i te moni; otira he
tohu no te whakapono-kore te mangere ki te kohikohi moni mo nga mahi whaka-te-Atua. 'Tenei ano etahi tohu o te mate o te whakapono e kitea ana i roto i a tatou : (i) Ko te kore tangata mo te whakau. He tokomaha nga tamariki e whakatupuria ake ana i roto i nga kura : te pakeketanga ake kahore rawa he hiahia kia whakaukia. Heoi ano te hunga kua whakaukia puta noa i tenei Pihopatanga Ite tau kua mahue ake nei, e 74; he tane 2ä, he wahine e 46; tokoiwa ME. au uo Ie kia aTe ts. MHOHARI KAU ma, toru noa wahine no te kura i Hukarere. Te take i penei ai, he kuware, kihai i ata whakaakona kia mohio ai ki te Wairua Tapu kua homai nei e te Atua hei whakakaha i te meoilkore ōte tangata. Ehara Ite mea nō nga Minita anake tenei he, engari he whakaa-ro-kore tetahi no nga matua, kahore nei e whai hiahia ki nga tamariki kia ata whakaakona. I (2) Ko te whakaparahako ki te marena. Ko te marena, he mea whakarite na te Atua ite orokohanganga ote tangata. UKKihai te tangata i waiho kia rite ki te kararehe, engari he mea tohutohu marire, ko te tane raua ko te wahine kia pumau tonu ki a raua; kaua e wehea, a kia mate rawa ra ano tetahi o raua. He tokomaha nei te hunga kua oti te maKU, KIHAI I taro kua (a kani I. to raua II KEHNAU Diri ke atu he wahine ke, he tane ke. He mea kino rawa tenei ki ta te Atua titiro. Tetahi whakaparahako, ko te moepuku noa iho. Ma te marena anake hoki ka mohiotia ai te whakaaro o te tane raua ko te wahine kia Dumau raua ki a raua, kia kaua e rite ki te kararehe kahore nei e matau ki ta te Atua tohutohu i ki nei, "ko raua tokorua hei kikokiko kotahi." (3) Ko te whai ate tangata i te hunga e kiia nei he poropiti, he tohunga. IKKia hua kau te tangataitaua ingoa ki a ia, whakapono tonu te tokomaha. Ahakoa kitea te teka o te kupu a te poropiti, e kore e mutu te whakapono ote tangata ki a ia. Tenei ano II e Kupa a TS Karati tō ITO PoTOUIU teka, "Ma o ratou hua ka mohiotia ai ratou e koutou." Tena iana, titiro ki nga hua o enei
e kiia nei he poropiti, he tohunga. UE tupu ana ranei te whakapono ki a Te Karaiti me nga tikanga pai i runga ia ratou mahi? He whakaware noa te ki nei, "kahore e kumea ketia te tangata Irunga i te whakapono ki a e Karaiti. Rama Kitea nei. Noli ko t IHI nga e whai ana I aua poropiti, ka tino mahue 1 a ratou te whakapono ki a Te Karaiti. Ko Te Kooti, ko te Whiti, ko Wereta, ko, Hikapuhi, ko Te Rua, ko Tipihau, ko wai poropiti, ko wai poropiti, kokahi tonu teu, Ko Te Karaiti e turakina ana kia tu ai he kai-whaka-OLLKO mo te tanpato. Eua Ii oha ko KAI raiti, "Te tangata ehara nei i te hoa noku, he hoa-riri ia ki ahau. "Koia i kore ai e tika kia pa te tangata a Te Karaiti ki taua tu poropiti. TA pl aui hoki TOHARI e a IE Aa Oo ana mahi tutu, kua takahi aTe Karaiti ki raro ki ona waewae. Mo tenei tu te kupu whakatupato a te Karaipiture, "Mo konei ra puta mai koutou i roto i a ratou ; kaua hoki e pa atu ki te inea poke." (4) : Ko te mau kino a te tangata Maori ki nga mahi whakaahuareka. E kore enei e taea te tatau; he haka, he purei kaari, he kamkimi, He ahu, HO ata€wW. ERO eHE te takaro te he, engariko te whakaputa ke i te takaro hei huarahi e peau ke ai te tangata KU wi ihi BE. . Ina Hoki he mana nei tE E Maa ana i (ec kamikanm. ITei te no oke PT IA rei ka huihui ki taua mahi, ka kanikami aao noa te ra ka rokohanga e te hiamoe ; mahue iho nga mahi o te Ratapu, te whakawhetai ki te Atua mo nga mea pai kua homai e ia; te whakapai ki a ia ;te whakarongo ki tana kupu tapu ; me te inoi ki nga mea e matea ana e te tinana,ete wairua. E kore e ngaro tē mea he. Kia kitea he kino te hua o te rakau ka mohiotia taua rakau he kino ; waihoki ko te mahi whakaahuareka, kia kitea he kino nga hua, ko te mea tena e tupato ai te tangata whakaaro.

Ki te hinga tetahi ite hara, me whaki taua hara ki te MU, Ra 6 murua al celia.oi— Kau RA I wareware ki ta Te Karaiti i whakawhiwhi mai ai kia tatou.
