Nā, ko te tikanga tēnei, kia kaha ake tō tātou whakaaro ki ngā mea kua rangona, kei pahuhu atu i a tātou. 
Mehemea hoki te kupu i whakapuakina e ngā anahera he pūmau, ā, he tika tonu te utu i whakahokia mō ngā pokanga kētanga katoa, mō ngā mahi tutū; 
me pēhea ka mawhiti ai tātou ki te paopao tātou ki tēnei ora nui; i tīmataia nei te kōrero e te Ariki, ā, kua whakaūkia mai ki a tātou e te hunga i rangona ai; 
me te whakaatu anō te Atua ki tā rātou, i runga i ngā tohu, i ngā mea whakamīharo, i tōna tini o ngā merekara, i ngā tūwhanga mai anō hoki o te Wairua Tapu, he pērā anō me tāna i pai ai. 
Kāhore hoki i waiho e ia ki raro i ngā anahera te ao meāke nei puta, tā mātou e kōrero nei. 
Heoi, i whakaaturia mai e tētahi i tētahi wāhi, i mea mai: “He aha te tangata, i mahara ai koe ki a ia? Te tama rānei a te tangata, i tirohia ai ia e koe? 
Nohinohi nei te whai i whakaititia iho ai ia e koe i ngā anahera; kua karaunatia ia e koe ki te korōria, ki te hōnore, kua waiho anō ia e koe hei rangatira mō ngā mahi a ōu ringa. 
Kua waiho nei e koe ngā mea katoa ki raro i ōna waewae.” Nā, i ngā mea katoa ka waiho nei i raro i a ia, kāhore i mahue tētahi mea kīhai nei i waiho i raro i a ia. Otirā, kāhore anō tātou kia kite noa i ngā mea katoa kua oti te waiho i raro i a ia. 
Ka kite rāia tātou i a Īhu, he nohinohi nei te wāhi i whakaititia iho ai ia i ngā anahera ka oti nei te karauna ki te korōria, ki te hōnore, i muri nei i tōna ngaunga e te mate; he meatanga nā tō te Atua aroha noa kia pāngia ia e te mate mō ngā tāngata katoa. 
Ko tāna tikanga tika hoki ia, māna nei ngā mea katoa, nāna anō hoki ngā mea katoa i a ia e ārahi ana i ngā tama tokomaha ki te korōria, kia waiho ngā mamae hei mea e tino rite ai te take o tō rātou whakaoranga. 
Ko te kaiwhakatapu hoki, rātou ko te hunga e whakatapua ana, nō te pū kotahi rātou katoa. Koia ia tē whakamā ai ki te hua i a rātou he tēina; 
e mea nei ia, “Māku e kōrero tōu ingoa ki ōku tēina; ka hīmene atu ahau ki a koe i waenganui o te whakaminenga.” 
Me tēnei anō hoki, “Ka ū pū ahau ki a ia.” Me tēnei anō, “Nanā, ahau nei me ngā tamariki i hōmai e te Atua ki ahau.” 
Nā, kei ngā tamariki he kikokiko, he toto, koia hoki ia i whakawhiwhia ai anō hoki ki aua mea; kia ai ai tōna matenga hei whakakāhore mō te rangatira o te mate, arā mō te rēwera; 
kia whakaputaina mai ai hoki e ia ki waho te hunga i meinga e te wehi o te mate hei taurekareka i ngā wā katoa i ora ai rātou. 
Kīhai hoki ia i mau ki ngā anahera; engari i mau ia ki te uri o Āperahama. 
Nā konei i tika ai kia whakaritea ia ki ōna tēina i ngā mea katoa, kia waiho ai ia hei tohunga nui e atawhai ana, e pono ana i ngā meatanga ki te Atua, hei whakamārie mō ngā hara o te iwi. 
I te mea hoki ka whakamātautauria ia, ā, mamae iho, e taea e ia te āwhina te hunga e whakamātautauria ana.
