4:1 ¶ Jadi', apa' lawi' Kristus wo'o mporata kaparia hi rala woto-na nto'u kamatea-nae, toe pai' koi' wo'o-koiwo kana mpakaroho nono-ni hante pekiri to hibalia hante pekiri-na Kristus: apa' hema to mporata kaparia hi rala woto-na, mogaa' -mi posidaia' -na hante jeko'.

4:2 Jadi', bula-ni tuwu' -pidi hi rala dunia' toi, neo' -pi nituku' konoa manusia', mpotuku' konoa Alata'ala-mokoi.

4:3 Apa' hono' -mi-hawo kahae-ni mpobabehi hewa to rababehi tauna to uma mpo'incai Pue'. Nto'u toe, uma katonoa tuwu' -ni, mpotuku' -koi kahinaa-ni to uma lompe', nginu palangu-langu, ntora mosusa', ntora bibo-bibo, pai' mepue' -koi hi pue' -pue' to uma natao rapue'.

4:11 Hema to mpokeni Lolita Pue' kana mololita hewa tauna to napowiwi Alata'ala. Hema to mpotulungi doo, tulungi-ra hante karohoa to ngkai Alata'ala. Bona hi rala hawe'ea to jadi', Alata'ala rapomobohe hi rala hanga' Yesus Kristus. Hi'a-mi to mobaraka' pai' to masipato' rapomobohe hanga' -na duu' kahae-hae-na! Amin.

4:14 Marasi' -dakoi ompi' ane raruge' -koi sabana mpotuku' -koi Kristus, apa' toe mpobatuai kahompo-na Noto to mobaraka' hi koi', toe-mi Inoha' to ngkai Alata'ala.

4:15 Aga neo' mpu'u-koi ria haduaa to mporata kaparia apa' topepatehi-i, ba topanako-i ba to dada'a ntani' -na ba to bibo.

4:16 Aga ane rabalinai' -koi apa' to Kristen-koi, neo' nipoka'ea'. Uli' -mi-hana tarima kasi hi Alata'ala, apa' topetuku' Kristus mpu'u-koi.

4:17 Neo' rata-mi tempo-na Alata'ala mpohurai kara-kara butu dua tauna. To napohurai mperi'ulu, kita' to napo'ana'. Hiaa' ane kita' to ri'ulu napohurai kara-kara-ta, peliu-liu-nami mpai' kagaga pehuku' -na ane mpohurai-i kara-kara-ra tauna to uma dota mpangala' Kareba Lompe' to ngkai Alata'ala.

4:18 Hi rala Buku Tomoroli' te'uki' hewa toi: Bangku' tauna to monoa' kehi-rae' kana mpotodohaka kaparia ncala', pai' lako' mporata kalompea'. Peliu-liu-nami tauna to dada'a pai' to uma mengkoru hi Alata'ala!"
