1 Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He Himene na Rawiri. E Ihowa, kua tirotirohia ahau e koe, kua mohiotia ano e koe.

2 E matau ana koe ki toku nohoanga iho, ki toku whakatikanga ake; e mohio ana koe ki oku whakaaro i tawhiti.

3 E kitea putia ana e koe toku ara me toku takotoranga iho; e matatau ana hoki koe ki oku ara katoa.

4 Kahore rawa hoki he kupu i toku arero, i toe i a koe te mohio, e Ihowa.

1 [To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.] Jehovah, thou hast searched me, and known {me}.

2 *Thou* knowest my down-sitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off;

3 Thou searchest out my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways;

4 For there is not yet a word on my tongue, {but} lo, O Jehovah, thou knowest it altogether.
