Mena he mate pāwera, he tairongo rānei ōu, kia tino rapua ngā mate pāwera pea kua whakahuatia i roto i te rārangi kai.
Haunga ngā kai, he mea tika kia tirohia anō te āhua o te tāpiringa. Ko ētahi tāpiringa kei roto i ngā papa, ko ētahi kei roto i ngā kāpū, ā, ko ētahi kei roto i te āhua wai, paura rānei. Ka pā te āhua o te tāpiringa ki te pai o te mimiti e te tinana me te watea o te tango. I te wā e whiriwhiri ana i tētahi momo tāpiringa, whakaarohia ō hiahia whaiaro me ngā raruraru ka pā mai ki a koe ina horomia ngā papa.
Muri iho, whakaarohia te ingoa o te waitohu e hiahia ana koe ki te hoko mai. Rapua ngā waitohu he ingoa pai, ā, e mōhiotia ana mō ō rātou kounga me te whai huatanga.

Heoi, he mea nui kia mahara he rerekē te tinana o te katoa, ā, ko te mea e pai ana mō tētahi tangata, kāore pea e pai mō tētahi atu.
He mea nui te utu i te nuinga o te wā ina hoko ana, ā, kāore he rerekētanga o ngā tāpiringa. Ahakoa he mea nui kia kaua e whakaiti i te kounga, he mea nui anō hoki kia whakarite kia ōrite te tāpiringa e whiriwhiria ana e koe ki tō tahua. Whakatauritehia ngā utu puta noa i ngā waitohu me te whakaaro ki ngā hekenga utu, ki ngā kōwhiringa hoko nui rānei e wātea ana. Heoi, kia maumahara kaua te utu anake te mea whakatau; he mea nui te kimi i te taurite i waenga i te kounga me te utu tika.
