1 Tena, kia waiata tatou ki a Ihowa: kia hari te hamama ki te kamaka o to tatou whakaoranga.2 Kia haere tatou me te whakawhetai atu ki tona aroaro: kia ngahau hoki a tatou himene ki a ia.3 No te mea he Atua nui hoki a Ihowa, he Kingi nui i nga atua katoa.4 Kei tona ringa nga wahi hohonu o te whenua: a nana nga maunga teitei.5 Nana te moana, nana ano i hanga, a na ona ringa i whai ahua ai te whenua maroke.6 Haere mai tatou, kia koropiko, kia tuohu: kia tukua nga turi ki te aroaro o Ihowa, o to tatou Kaihanga.7 Ko ia hoki to tatou Atua; ko tatou tana iwi e hepara ai, nga hipi a tona ringa. Ki te rongo koutou ki tona reo aianei.8 Kaua e whakapakeketia o koutou ngakau: kei pera me o te whakatoinga, me o te ra o te whakamatautauranga i te koraha;9 I ahau i whakamatautauria e o koutou matua, i ata mohiotia, i to ratou kitenga ano hoki i aku mahi.10 E wha tekau nga tau i hoha ai ahau ki tenei whakatupuranga, na ka mea ahau; He iwi ngakau kotiti ke ratou, kahore hoki ratou e mohio ki aku ara.11 Na reira i riri ai ahau, i oati ai hoki; e kore ratou e tae ki toku okiokinga.

And they have not known My ways:`11 Where I sware in Mine anger, `If they come in unto My rest -- !`
