Te Whakawhetai me te Whakamoemiti
1 Ā, i taua rā ka mea koe:
"Ka whakamoemiti atu ahau ki a koe, e Ihowā;
ahakoa hoki i riri koe ki ahau,
kua tahuri atu tōu riri,
ā, kei te whakamārie koe i ahau.
2 Nanā, ko te Atua tōku whakaoranga;
ka whakawhirinaki ahau, e kore anō e wehi.
Ko te Ariki hoki, ko IHOWĀ tōku kaha, tāku waiata;
ko ia anō hei whakaoranga mōku.
3 Nā, ka utu wai koutou i runga i te koa
i roto i ngā puna o te whakaoranga."
4 Ka mea anō hoki i taua rā:
"Whakamoemitia a Ihowā,
karanga atu ki tōna ingoa;
whakaaturia āna mahi ki roto i ngā iwi;
kauwhautia atu kua oti tōna ingoa te whakaneke ake.
5 Waiata ki a Ihowā, he nui noa atu hoki āna mahi;
meinga kia mōhiotia tēnei puta noa i te ao.
6 Hāmama kia nui te reo, e te wahine e noho ana i Hiona,
he nui hoki te Mea Tapu o Īharaira i waenganui i a koe."
