He ꞌui e Nikoremo:

—¿Pē hē ia te taŋata paꞌari ana poreko haka ꞌou? ¿E tano mau rō mo uru haka ꞌou ki roto i te manava o tōꞌona matuꞌa vahine ꞌe ꞌai ka poreko haka ꞌou mai?

He pāhono e Ietū:

—ꞌĪ a au he kī atu: te taŋata mo taꞌe poreko mai roto i te vai ꞌe mai te ⌊Vārua Maitai⌋, e ko oꞌo ki roto i te haka tere iŋa ꞌāpī o te ꞌAtua. Te meꞌe poreko mai roto i te taŋata he taŋata mau ꞌā, ꞌe te meꞌe poreko hai pūai o te Vārua Maitai he poki o te ꞌAtua. ꞌIna koe ko māere ana kī atu au: e poreko haka ꞌou te taŋata taꞌatoꞌa. Te tokerau e puhi ena a te kona taꞌatoꞌa nō; ka ŋaroꞌa atu e koe, e ko ꞌite koe mai hē ꞌe kī hē ka oho era. Pē ira te aŋa iŋa o te Vārua Maitai ꞌi ruŋa i te taŋata poreko haka ꞌou hai pūai ōꞌona.

He ꞌui haka ꞌou e Nikoremo:

—¿Pē hē ia te meꞌe ena?

He pāhono e Ietū:

—¿He maꞌori koe o te itaraera ꞌe kai ꞌite koe i te ŋā meꞌe ena? ꞌĪ a au he kī atu: e vānaŋa atu ena o ruŋa i te meꞌe ko ꞌite ꞌā ꞌe ko takeꞌa ꞌā e au; ꞌe, a kōrua ꞌina he haka roŋo mai. Mo taꞌe haka roŋo mai o kōrua ki tāꞌaku meꞌe e kī atu ena o te ao nei, ¿pē hē ia kōrua ana haka roŋo mai mo vānaŋa atu ōꞌoku o ruŋa i te meꞌe o te raŋi?
»ꞌIna ꞌā he kope raꞌe i iri ki te raŋi, he kope topa nō mai era mai ruŋa, he ⌊Poki o te taŋata⌋. Pa he haka tuꞌu iŋa e ⌊Mōtē⌋ i te pou ꞌi ruŋa te kōreha ꞌi te kona ꞌone taꞌe noho taŋata, pē ira takoꞌa ꞌana ka haka tuꞌu ena i te tātaurō ꞌi ruŋa te Poki o te taŋata, ki ravaꞌa ai e te nuꞌu taꞌatoꞌa ⌊haka moe i te manaꞌu⌋ ꞌi ruŋa i a ia te ora ꞌāpī ꞌina he hopeꞌa raꞌa vaꞌai e te ꞌAtua.
»ꞌI te haŋa rahi o te ꞌAtua ki te taŋata taꞌatoꞌa o te ao, he vaꞌai i tāꞌana Poki mau nō era e tahi mo mate, ꞌe nuꞌu nō era mo haka moe i te manaꞌu ꞌi ruŋa, e ko haka tapa e te ꞌAtua mai muri i a ia ꞌe e ko haka ūtuꞌa; he vaꞌai i te ora ꞌāpī ꞌina he hopeꞌa raꞌa. Te ꞌAtua ꞌina kai uŋa i tāꞌana Poki ki te ao mo haka ūtuꞌa i te taŋata; i uŋa ai mo haka eꞌa i a rāua mai roto i te ūtuꞌa o te hara ꞌe mo vaꞌai i te ora ꞌāpī ꞌina he hopeꞌa raꞌa.
»Te taŋata haka moe i tōꞌona manaꞌu ꞌi ruŋa i te Poki o te ꞌAtua e ko haka ūtuꞌa; ꞌe te taŋata taꞌe haka moe i te manaꞌu ꞌi ruŋa i a ia ko ai era ꞌana te ūtuꞌa mōꞌona ꞌo te taꞌe haka moe i te manaꞌu ꞌi ruŋa i te Poki mau nō era e tahi o te ꞌAtua. Te ꞌAtua ka haka ūtuꞌa ena i te taŋata ꞌo te meꞌe nei: i oho mai era te mōrī ki te ao, ꞌina kai haŋa e te taŋata.

Ko oti atu ꞌana te meꞌe nei, he oho a Ietū ananake ko tāꞌana nuꞌu hāpī ki Hūrea. He noho ꞌi ira meꞌe rahi mahana he ⌊papatito⌋ i te taŋata.

He kī e Iovani:

—Mo ai rō o te pūai o te taŋata e tahi, o te ꞌAtua i vaꞌai. Ko ŋaroꞌa ꞌana e kōrua i tōꞌoku kī iŋa taꞌe a au he ⌊Kiritō⌋, he taŋata nō au e tahi uŋa mai ꞌi muꞌa i a ia.
