1 E Ihowā, e tō mātou Ariki,

anō te nui o tōu ingoa i te whenua katoa!

Pakū ana i a koe tōu korōria ki runga ake i ngā rangi!

2 Ū pū i a koe te kaha o te māngai o ngā kōhungahunga,

o ngā mea ngote ū hei mea mō ōu hoariri,

hei pēhi mō te hoariri, mō te kairapu utu.

3 Ka titiro ahau ki āu rangi,

ki te mahi a ōu maihao,

ki te marama, ki ngā whetū,

i hangā nei e koe;

4 he aha te tangata i maharatia ai e koe,

te tama rānei a te tangata i tirohia ai ia e koe?

5 Nohinohi nei te wāhi i whakaititia iho ai ia e koe i te Atua,

karaunatia ana ia e koe ki te korōria, ki te hōnore.

6 Waiho iho e koe hei kīngi mō ngā mahi a ōu ringa;

kua waiho e koe ngā mea katoa i raro i ōna waewae;

7 ngā hipi katoa, ngā pūru,

me ngā kīrehe katoa o te pārae;

8 te manu o te rangi, me te ika o te moana,

e tere nei i ngā ara o ngā moana.

9 E Ihowā, e tō mātou Ariki,

anō te nui o tōu ingoa i te whenua katoa!
