17 ‘Ā, tēnei ake kei ngā rā whaka­mutu­nga, e ai tā te Atua,

ka ringi­hia e ahau tōku Wairua ki ngā kiko­kiko katoa;

ka poro­piti hoki ā koutou tama, ā koutou tamā­hine,

e kite anō ā koutou tai­tama­riki i ngā kite­nga,

ka moe­moeā hoki ō koutou kaumātua.

18 Āe, ka ringi­hia anō e ahau tōku Wairua i aua rā,

ki āku pono­nga tāne, ki āku pono­nga wāhine;

ā, ka poro­piti rātou.

19 Ka whaka­kitea anō e ahau ngā mea whaka­mīharo i te rangi i runga,

me ngā tohu ki te whenua i raro;

he toto, he kāpura, he paowa po­ngere. 20 Ko te rā ka huri hei pōuri,

ko te marama hoki hei toto,

i mua o te pu­tanga mai o te rā o te Ariki,

taua rā nui whaka­hara­hara, rongo­nui.

21 Nā, ko reira ora ai te hunga katoa e karanga ana ki te ingoa o te Ariki.’
