Otiia, ka riro he kaha i a koutou, ina haere mai te Wairua Tapu ki runga ki a koutou, ā, hei kaiwhakaatu koutou mōku ki Hiruhārama, ki Hūria katoa, ki Hamaria hoki, ā tae noa ki te pito whakamutunga o te ao.”

Nā, ko tāna meatanga ki a rātou, “Ehara mā koutou te mōhio ki ngā tāima, ki ngā wā rānei, kua whakaritea e te Matua māna ake te tikanga.

Ā, i a rātou ka huihui tahi me ia, ka whai kupu ia kia kaua rātou e haere atu i Hiruhārama, ā, ka mea, “Engari, kia tāria te mea i kōrerotia i mua e te Matua, i rongo rā koutou ki ahau. I iriiri hoki a Hoani ki te wai; ko koutou ia, e kore e maha ake ngā rā, ka iriiria ki te Wairua Tapu.”

He maha hoki ngā tohu i whakakite ora ai ia i a ia ki a rātou, i muri i tōna whakamamaetanga, e whā tekau hoki ngā rā i kitea ai e rātou, kōrerotia ai e ia ngā mea o te rangatiratanga o te Atua.

Ā, nō ka mutu tāna kōrero i ēnei mea, i a rātou anō e titiro atu ana, ka tangohia atu ia, ā, nā te kapua i kōpaki atu i ō rātou kanohi.

Ā, i a rātou e titiro matatau atu ana ki te rangi, i a ia e haere ana, nā, ko ngā tāngata tokorua e tū ana i tō rātou taha, he mā ngā kākahu. E mea ana, “E ngā tāngata o Karirī, he aha tā koutou e tū, e mātakitaki atu nā ki te rangi? Ko tēnā Īhu kua tangohia atu nā i a koutou ki te rangi, ka pērā anō tōna haerenga mai me ia i tirohia atu nā e koutou e haere ana ki te rangi.”
