¹⁰Otiia kua whakakitea mai aua mea ki a tatou e te Atua ma tona Wairua: e rapu ana hoki te Wairua i nga mea katoa, ae, i nga mea hohonu a te Atua.

¹¹Ko wai oti o nga tangata e matau ana ki nga mea a te tangata? ko te wairua anake o te tangata i roto i a ia: waihoki ko nga mea a te Atua e kore e matauria e tetahi, engari e te Wairua o te Atua.

¹²Otiia ko te wairua i riro mai nei i a tatou, ehara i te wairua o te ao, engari ko te Wairua e ahu mai nei i te Atua; kia matau ai tatou ki nga mea kua oti nei te homai e te Atua ki a tatou.

¹³Na ka korero matou i aua mea, ehara nga kupu i te whakaaro mohio o te tangata i whakaako mai, engari he mea whakaako na te Wairua Tapu; e whakariterite ana i nga mea wairua ki nga mea wairua.

¹⁴Na e kore te tangata i te ngakau maori e tango i nga mea o te Wairua o te Atua: ki a ia he mea kuware era; a e kore ia e ahei te matau, he mea ma te Wairua ka kitea ai.
