Kīhai nei hoki te Tama a te tangata i haere mai kia mahia he mea māna, engari, kia mahi ia, kia tuku hoki i a ia kia mate hei utu mō ngā tāngata tokomaha.”

Nā, ka titiro a Īhu ki a rātou, ka mea, “E kore tēnei e taea e te tangata, ki te Atua ia ka taea; e taea hoki ngā mea katoa e te Atua.”

Ka mea a Īhu ki a ia, “Haere; nā tōu whakapono koe i ora ai.” Nā, titiro tonu iho ia, aru ana i a Īhu i te ara.

Nā, ko ā te Atua i hono ai, kaua e wehea e te tangata.”

Nā, ka titiro a Īhu ki a ia, ka aroha ki a ia, ka mea ki a ia, “Kotahi te mea kāhore nei i a koe: haere, hokona āu mea, ka hoatu ki ngā rawakore, ā, e whai taonga koe ki te rangi. Kātahi ka haere mai, ka aru i ahau.”

Nā, ka oho a Īhu, ka mea ki a ia, “He aha tāu e hiahia nā kia meatia e ahau māu?” Ka kī te matapō ki a ia, “E te Ariki, kia titiro ahau.”

He tokomaha ia ō mua e waiho ki muri; ko ō muri hoki ki mua.”

I te orokohanganga ia, ‘I hangā rāua e te Atua he tāne, he wahine.’ ‘Mō konei ka mahue i te tangata tōna pāpā me tōna whaea, ka piri ki tāna wahine; hei kikokiko kotahi hoki rāua tokorua.’ Nā, heoi anō tō rāua tokoruatanga, engari, kotahi anō kikokiko.
