37 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Kia whakapaua tou ngakau, tou wairua, tou hinengaro, ki te aroha ki te Ariki, ki tou Atua.

38 Ko te tuatahi tenei, ko te kupu nui.

39 He rite ano te tuarua ki tenei, Kia aroha koe ki tou hoa tata, ano ko koe.

40 Kei runga i enei kupu e rua e iri ana te ture me nga poropiti.

37 And Jesus said to him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thine understanding --

38 this is a first and great command;

39 and the second [is] like to it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself;

40 on these -- the two commands -- all the law and the prophets do hang.
