3 I whakahēngia, i whakakāhoretia ia e te tangata;
he tangata pōuri, kua mōhio hoki ki te tangi;
ā, i āhua huna ngā kanohi ki a ia;
i whakakāhoretia, kīhai hoki tātou i whakaaro ki a ia.
4 He pono, nāna ō tātou mate i pīkau,
nāna hoki i waha ō tātou pōuri;
ko tātou ia i mea, i tukitukia,
i patua ia e te Atua, i whakawhiua.
5 Kāhore, i werohia ia mō ō tātou hē,
i kurua mō ō tātou kino;
nōna te whiunga i mau ai tō tātou rongo,
kei ōna kārawarawa hoki he rongoā mō tātou.
