Nā, he tangata tērā nō ngā Parihi, ko Nikorima tōna ingoa, he rangatira nō ngā Hūrai. Ka haere mai tēnei ki a Īhu i te pō, ka mea ki a ia, “E Rapi, e mātau ana mātou i haere mai koe i te Atua hei kaiwhakaako, inā hoki e kore tētahi tangata e āhei te mea i ēnei merekara e meatia nei e koe, ki te kāhore te Atua i a ia.”
Ka whakahoki a Īhu, ka mea ki a ia, “He pono, he pono, tāku e mea nei ki a koe, ki te kāhore te tangata e whānau hou, e kore ia e āhei te kite i te rangatiratanga o te Atua.”
Ka mea a Nikorima ki a ia, “Me pēhea ka whānau ai te tangata i tōna koroheketanga? E taea rānei te tuarua o ngā haerenga ki roto ki te kōpū o tōna whaea, whānau mai ai?”
Ka whakahokia e Īhu, “He pono, he pono tāku e mea nei ki a koe, Ki te kāhore te tangata e whānau i te wai, i te Wairua hoki, e kore ia e āhei te tomo ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua. Ko tā te kikokiko e whānau ai he kikokiko; ko tā te Wairua e whānau ai he wairua. Aua rā e mīharo ki tāku i mea nei ki a koe, ‘He mea tūturu tēnei kia whānau hou koutou.’ E pupuhi ana te hau ki tāna wāhi e pai ai, ka rongo hoki koe ki tōna haruru otiia e kore e mōhiotia e koe te wāhi i puta mai ai, e tae atu ai rānei. Ko te ritenga tēnei ki te hunga katoa ka whānau i te Wairua.”
Ka whakahoki a Nikorima, ka mea ki a ia, “Me pēhea ka taea ai ēnei mea?”
Ka whakahoki a Īhu, ka mea ki a ia, “Ko koe te Kaiwhakaako o Īharaira, ā, kāhore i mātau ki ēnei mea? He pono, he pono tāku e mea nei ki a koe, e kōrerotia ana e mātou tā mātou i mātau ai, e whakaaturia ana tā mātou i kite ai; heoi, e kore koutou e tango ki tā mātou whakaaturanga. Ki te mea kua kōrerotia e ahau ki a koutou ngā mea o te whenua, ā, kāhore koutou e whakapono, me pēhea ka whakapono ai ki te kōrerotia e ahau ki a koutou ngā mea o te rangi? Kāhore hoki he tangata i kake noa ki te rangi, ko ia anake i heke iho i te rangi, arā ko te Tama a te tangata, e noho mai nei i te rangi.
“Ka rite hoki ki tā Mohi whakairinga i te nākahi i te koraha, kua takoto te tikanga kia pērā te whakairinga o te Tama a te tangata. Kia kāhore ai e ngaro te tangata e whakapono ana ki a ia, engari kia whiwhi ai ki te ora tonu.
“Koia anō te aroha o te Atua ki te ao, hōmai ana e ia tāna Tama kotahi, kia kāhore ai e ngaro te tangata e whakapono ana ki a ia, engari kia whiwhi ai ki te ora tonu. Kīhai hoki te Atua i tono mai i tāna Tama ki te ao ki te whakahē i te ao; engari kia ora ai te ao i a ia.
“Ko ia e whakapono ana ki a ia, e kore e tau te hē ki a ia; tēnā ko ia e kore e whakapono, kua whakahēngia noatia ake, mōna kīhai i whakapono ki te ingoa o te Tama kotahi a te Atua. Ko te whakahēnga hoki tēnei, nō te mea kua tae mai nei te mārama ki te ao, ā, nui atu tō ngā tāngata aroha ki te pōuri i tō rātou ki te mārama, he kino hoki nō ā rātou mahi. E kino ana hoki ki te mārama ngā kaimahi katoa i te kino, e kore anō hoki e haere mai ki te mārama, kei whakakitea ā rātou mahi. Tēnā ko te kaimahi i te pono, e haere mai ana ki te mārama, kia kitea ai āna mahi, he mea mahi i roto i te Atua.”

Ā, nō muri i ēnei mea ka haere a Īhu, rātou ko āna ākonga, ki te whenua o Hūria; ā, noho tahi ana rātou ki reira, me tāna iriiri anō. Nā, i te iriiri anō hoki a Hoani ki Ēnona, ki tētahi wāhi e tata ana ki Harema, nō te mea he nui te wai o reira; ā, ka haere mai rātou, ka iriiria. Kāhore anō hoki a Hoani i pangā ki te whare herehere.
Nā, ka ara he totohe a ngā ākonga a Hoani ki tētahi Hūrai mō te purenga. Ā, ka haere rātou ki a Hoani, ka mea ki a ia, “E Rapi, ko te tangata i tāwāhi nā kōrua o Horano, ko tāu i whakaatu mai nā, nanā, kei te iriiri ia, e haere ana hoki te katoa ki a ia.”
Ka whakahoki a Hoani, ka mea, “E kore tētahi mea e riro i te tangata, ki te kore e hōmai ki a ia i te rangi. Ko koutou hei kaiwhakaae ki ahau, ki tāku meatanga, ‘Ehara ahau i a te Karaiti, engari i tonoa mai ahau i mua i a ia.’ Ko te tangata i te wahine mārena hou, ko ia te tāne mārena hou. Nā, ko te hoa o te tāne mārena hou, e tū ana, e rongo ana ki a ia, ka hari pū ki te reo o te tāne mārena hou. Nā reira i tutuki ai tēnei hari ōku. Ko te tikanga tēnei, ko ia kia nui haere, ko ahau kia iti haere.”

“Ko ia e haere mai ana i runga, kei runga ake ia i te katoa; ko tō te whenua nō te whenua ia, nō te whenua anō āna kōrero. Ko ia e haere mai ana i te rangi, kei runga ake ia i te katoa. Ā, ko tāna i kite ai, i rongo ai, ko ia tāna e whakaatu ai; kāhore hoki tētahi tangata e tango atu ki tāna whakaaturanga. Ki te manako tētahi ki tāna whakaaturanga, kua piri tāna tohu ki te pono o tā te Atua. Ko tā te Atua i tono mai ai, e kōrero ana ia i ngā kupu a te Atua; kāhore hoki te Wairua e hōmai e te Atua i runga i te mēhua. E aroha ana te Matua ki te Tama, kua hoatu anō ngā mea katoa ki tōna ringa. Ko ia e whakapono ana ki te Tama, he ora tonu tōna; ko ia e kore e whakapono ki te Tama, e kore e kite i te ora, engari ka mau tonu te riri a te Atua ki a ia.”
