Kaua e kaiponuhia te pai ki te hunga i tika nei ma ratou, i te wa e taea ai e tou ringa. Kaua e korero ki tou hoa, Haere, ka hoki mai ano, a apopo ka hoatu e ahau; ina kei a koe ano (Whakatauki 3:27-28)
Ka tae mai tetahi ki a koe ka tono mai ki a koe he pai, he pai ranei, i te wa ohorere, me hoatu e koe ki te tangata tana e tono ai. Mena kei a koe te pai, na kaua e kii ki te tangata kia hoki mai i te ra i muri mai, i te wa pai ake ranei. Engari hoatu nga mea e hiahiatia ana e te tangata.
Kaore koe e mohio, mehemea he apopo. Haunga tera, kaore koe e mohio ki te hiahia o te tangata.
No Ihu tou ora, a kua whakaritea koe e ia hei kanohi mona. Mana e arahi nga tangata ki a koe, e matea ana. Ko koe anake, i taua wa, ko wai hei awhina i taua tangata.
Kaua e kii ki te tangata kia hoki mai apopo, kaua ano hoki e arahi i te tangata ki te hahi, ki te karakia ranei. Engari hoatu ki te tangata he aha (s)e tono ana ia. Mena he taro, he putea huka, tetahi atu pai ranei, ki te hiahia ranei te tangata ki te inoi, whakaora, tohutohu, etc., hoatu, kaua hoki e kaiponuhia.
Kua hoatu e Ihu nga mea katoa e hiahia ana koe, hei awhina i tenei tangata. Ua haamaitaihia outou i te mau haamaitairaa pae varua atoa i te mau vahi teitei, kia kaua e pupuri katoa ki a koe ano, engari ki te tohatoha ki etahi atu. Koira te tikanga o te Komihana Nui.
