Nā, ko te whakahokinga a Īhu ki a ia, “Ko te tuatahi o ngā ture katoa, ‘Whakarongo, e Īharaira: Ko te Ariki, ko tō tātou Atua, he Ariki kotahi; kia whakapaua hoki tōu ngākau, tōu wairua, tōu hinengaro, tōu kaha, ki te aroha ki te Ariki, ki tōu Atua. Ko te ture tuatahi tēnei.’ Ko te tuarua tēnei, ‘Kia aroha koe ki tōu hoa tata, ānō ko koe.’ Kāhore he ture kē atu e rahi ake ana i ēnei.”

Nā, ka karangatia e ia āna ākonga, ka mea ki a rātou, “He pono tāku e mea nei ki a koutou, ko tā tēnei pouaru rawakore i maka ai, nui atu i a rātou katoa e maka rā ki te takotoranga moni. Ko rātou katoa hoki, he hira nei ō rātou taonga, i makā ko tētahi wāhi; tēnā ko ia i tōna rawakoretanga i maka i āna mea katoa, arā, i tōna oranga katoa.”

Ā, ka noho a Īhu i te ritenga atu o te takotoranga moni, ka mātakitaki ki te mano e panga moni ana ki te takotoranga moni; ā, he tokomaha ngā tāngata whai taonga i panga moni maha ki roto. Nā, ko te haerenga mai o tētahi pouaru rawakore, ka maka i ngā mea nonohi e rua, kotahi pātene ki te huia.

ā, ‘Ko te whakapau i te ngākau, i te hinengaro, i te wairua, i te kaha, ki te aroha ki a ia, me te aroha ki tōna hoa tata, ānō ko ia,’ nui atu ēnā i ngā tahunga tinana, i ngā patunga tapu katoa.”

Nā, ka whakahoki a Īhu, ka mea ki a rātou, “Hoatu ki a Hīhā, ngā mea a Hīhā, ki te Atua ngā mea a te Atua.” Ā, mīharo ana rātou ki a ia.
