RUKA 23

40 Nā, ka whaka­hoki tētahi, ka riri ki a ia, ka mea, "E kore rānei koe e wehi ki te Atua, kei tēnei mate tahi nei hoki koe? 41 Ka tika rāia tō tāua; ka whi­whi hoki tāua ki ngā mea e tika ana mō ā tāua hanga; ko tēnei ia kāhore āna mahi hē." 42 Nā, ko tāna mea­tanga ki a Īhu, "E te Ariki, kia mahara koe ki ahau ina haere mai koe i runga i tōu ranga­tira­tanga."

43 Anō rā ko Īhu ki a ia, "He pono tāku e mea nei ki a koe, ko āia­nei koe noho ai ki ahau ki Pararaiha."
