1 E Ihowā, anō te tini o ōku hoariri,

he tokomaha te hunga e whakatika mai ana ki ahau.

2 He tokomaha te mea ana ki tōku wairua,

"Hore rawa he whakaoranga mōna i te Atua." Hera

3 Ko koe ia, e Ihowā, hei whakangungu rākau mōku,

hei korōria mōku, hei kaiwhakaara i tōku mātenga.

4 I karanga, tōku reo ki a Ihowā;

ā, whakahoki kupu mai ana ia ki ahau i tōna maunga tapu. Hera

5 I takoto ahau, i moe;

i ara ake anō; nā Ihowā hoki ahau i whakamau ake.

6 E kore ahau e mataku i ngā mano tini o te iwi,

kua whakatika mai nei ki ahau karapoti noa.

7 Whakatika, e Ihowā;

whakaorangia ahau, e tōku Atua!

Nāu hoki i patu te kauae o ōku hoariri katoa;

mangungu noa i a koe ngā niho o te hunga kino.

8 Nā Ihowā te whakaoranga.

Kei runga i tāu iwi tāu manaaki. Hera
