4 Ka mea rātou ki a ia, "E te Kaiwhakaako, i hopukia pūtia te wahine nei e pūremu ana. 5 I whakahau a Mohi ki a mātou i roto i te ture, kia ākina ngā pēnei ki te kōhatu. Tēnā koa tāu kī?" 6 I pēnei ai rātou he whakamātautau mōna, kia whai take ai rātou e whakapāngia ai he hē ki a ia. Ka piko a Īhu, ā, tuhituhi ana tōna ringa ki te whenua.

7 Ā, ka tohe tonu rātou ki te ui ki a ia ka whakatika ake ia, ka mea ki a rātou, "Ko te tangata o koutou kāhore ōna hara, māna te kōhatu mātāmua e āki ki a ia." 8 Nā, ka piko anō ia, ka tuhituhi ki te whenua.

9 Ā, i tō rātou rongonga, ka haere takitahi atu ki waho, nā ngā kaumātua i tīmata, ā poto noa ō muri rawa. Ā, ko Īhu anake i mahue, me te wahine e tū ana i waenganui. 10 Ā, ko te marangatanga ake o Īhu, ka mea ki a ia, "E tai, kei hea rātou? Kāhore he tangata i whakatau hē ki a koe?"

11 Anō rā ko tērā, "Kāhore, e te Ariki."

Ka mea a Īhu ki a ia, "Kāhore anō hoki ahau e whakatau i te hē ki a koe; haere, kāti te hara."
