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."
