Kāhore ianei ahau i whakahau ki a koe? Kia kaha, kia māia; kaua e wehi, kaua hoki e pāwera; nō te mea kei a koe a Ihowā, tōu Atua, i ngā wāhi katoa e haere ai koe.”

Kei whakarērea e tōu waha tēnei Pukapuka o te Ture; engari kia ū ōu whakaaro ki reira i te ao, i te pō, kia mau ai koe ki te mahi i ngā mea katoa kua oti te tuhi ki reira; mā reira ka whai wāhi ai koe i tōu huarahi, mā reira hoki koe ka kake ai.

Heoi, kia kaha, kia tino māia rawa ki te pupuri, ki te mahi i ngā ture katoa i whakahaua ki a koe e Mohi, e tāku pononga; kei peka kē koe i reira ki matau, ki mauī rānei, kia tika ai tāu i ngā wāhi katoa e haere ai koe.

E kore tētahi e kaha ki te tū ki tōu aroaro i ngā rā katoa e ora ai koe. I a Mohi ahau, ka pērā anō ahau ki a koe; e kore ahau e whakarere i a koe, e kore hoki e mawehe i a koe.

“Kia kaha, kia māia rawa; māu hoki tēnei iwi e whakawhiwhi ki te whenua i oati ai ahau ki ō rātou mātua kia hoatu ki a rātou.

Ko ngā wāhi katoa e takahia e ngā kapu o ō koutou waewae kua hoatu e ahau a reira ki a koutou, ka rite ki tāku i kōrero ai ki a Mohi.

“Kua mate a Mohi, tāku pononga. Nā, whakatika, whiti atu i tēnei Horano, a koe me tēnei iwi katoa, ki te whenua ka hoatu nei e ahau ki a rātou, arā ki ngā tama a Īharaira.

Nā, i muri iho i te matenga o Mohi, o te pononga a Ihowā, ka kōrero a Ihowā ki a Hohua, ki te tama a Nunu, ki te tangata a Mohi, ka mea

Ko te rohe ki a koutou kei te koraha, kei Repanōna nei, ā te awa nui atu ana, arā te awa Uparati, ko te whenua katoa o ngā Hiti, ā tae noa ki te Moana Nui, ki te toenetanga o te rā.

Ahakoa ko wai te tangata e tutū ki tāu whakahau, e kore hoki e rongo ki āu kupu, ki ngā mea katoa e whakahau ai koe ki a ia, me whakamate. Ko koe ia kia kaha, kia māia!”

“Haere rā waenganui o te puni, ka whakahau i te iwi, ka mea: ‘Takā he ō mō koutou; nō te mea kia toru ake rā ka whiti koutou i te Horano nei, ka haere ki te tango i te whenua ka hōmai nei e Ihowā, e tō koutou Atua, kia nohoia e koutou.’ ”
