Ihāia.
55.
“Ē! E ngā tāngata katoa e matewai ana, haere mai ki ngā wai; me te tangata kāhore āna moni; haere mai, hokona, kainga! Haere mai, hokona he wāina, he waiū; kaua he moni, kaua he utu. 
He aha rā i hokona ai e koutou te moni mō ngā mea ehara i te taro, tō koutou uaua mō ngā mea e kore ai koutou e mākona? Āta whakarongo mai ki ahau, ā, kainga te mea pai; kia ora hoki ō koutou wairua i ngā mea mōmona. 
Tahuri mai ō koutou taringa, haere mai ki ahau; whakarongo mai, ā, ka ora ō koutou wairua. Ā, māku e whakarite ki a koutou he kawenata mau tonu, arā ngā atawhainga pono i a Rāwiri. 
Nanā, kua waiho ia e ahau hei kaiwhakaatu ki ngā iwi, hei rangatira, hei kaiwhakahau mō ngā tauiwi. 
Nanā, ka karanga koe i te iwi kīhai i mōhiotia e koe; ka rere mai anō ki a koe ngā iwi kāhore i mōhio ki a koe; mō Ihowā hoki, mō tōu Atua, mō te Mea Tapu o Īharaira; nāna hoki koe i whakanui. 
Rapua a Ihowā, kei kitea ana ia, karangatia atu, kei tata ana mai ia; 
kia whakarere te tangata kino i tōna ara, te tangata mahi hē i ōna whakaaro; kia hoki ki a Ihowā, ā, ka aroha ia ki a ia; ki tō tātou Atua hoki he nui rawa hoki tāna mahi tohu. 
“Ehara hoki ōku whakaaro i ō koutou whakaaro, ō koutou huarahi i ōku huarahi,” 
“Tā te mea e ikeike ake ana te rangi i te whenua, waihoki ko ōku huarahi e ikeike ake ana i ō koutou huarahi, ko ōku whakaaro i ō koutou whakaaro. 
Ka rite hoki ki te ua rāua ko te hukarere e rere iho ana i te rangi, ā, e kore e hoki ki reira; engari e whakamākūkū ana i te whenua, e mea ana kia whai hua, kia pihi ake, kia hōmai anō he purapura mā te kaiwhakatō, he taro mā te tangata e kai ana; 
ka pēnā anō tāku kupu e puta ana i tōku māngai; e kore e hoki kau mai ki ahau; engari ka meatia tāku i pai ai, ka taea hoki tāku i unga atu ai. 
Tā te mea ka haere atu koutou me te hari anō, ka ārahina i runga i te rangimārie; ka pakaru mai te waiata a ngā maunga, a ngā pukepuke, i tō koutou aroaro, ā, ka papaki ringa ngā rākau katoa o te whenua. 
He tātarāmoa i mua, ka puta ake he kauri; he tūmatakuru i mua, ka puta ake he ramarama; ā, ka waiho hei ingoa ki a Ihowā, hei tohu mō ā mua tonu atu, e kore e motuhia.”
