Ki muri iho, ka whakaaro ahau ki taku whakaoranga, e, te rite hoki o tenei ki ta te Atua whakaora “ atawhai.” Tenei he tangata ko te mate, otira, tu mai ana he kai-whakaora. E mea ana te Atua, “ Whakaorangia iakeiheke kite rua; kua kitea hoki e ahau he utu.” Kahore atu he kai-whakaora e rapu atu ai. Ko tona ringa e kaha ana kite whakaora. E hopukia ana e te whakapono, te ora whakamaro mai e te 'Atua. Ki taku mahara ake, ko te tangata i hopu ki au taku kaiwhakaora; kahore hold aku kaha Id te whakaora iau ano. Heoi he mea maku, he inoi mona, Ida whakawhiwhia ia kite whakaoranga nui. T,g tino : whakamarama mai a tenei whakaoranga oku ki ta te Atua atawhai whakaora 1 ;He aha. he mahi mana ? heoi mana he pupuri u tonu ki aia e “ Kaha rawa ana ”—he whakarongo ki Tona reo i a ia e mea nei, “ Tahurimai ki au, Ida ora ai koutou . . . ko ahau hold te Atua, kahore atu. Ma te ngakau hoki kia whakapono ka tika ai; ma te mangai kia whakaae ka ora ai.”
