Kotahi te Atua Pono
1 Aua ki a mātou, e Ihowā, aua ki a mātou,
engari me hoatu te korōria ki tōu ingoa;
whakaaroa tōu aroha, tōu pono.
2 Kia mea koia ngā tauiwi;
“Kei hea ianei tō rātou Atua?”
3 Kei te rangi ia tō mātou Atua;
kua meatia e ia ngā mea katoa i pai ai ia.
4 He hiriwa ā rātou whakapakoko,
he kōura, he mahi nā te ringa tāngata.
5 He māngai ō rātou, ā, kāhore e kōrero;
he kanohi ō rātou, ā, kāhore e kite.
6 He taringa ō rātou, ā, kāhore e rongo:
he ihu ō rātou, ā, kāhore e hongi.
7 He ringa ō rātou, ā, kāhore e whāwhā;
he waewae ō rātou, ā, kāhore e haere;
kāhore hoki ō rātou korokoro e kōrero.
8 Ka rite ki a rātou ō rātou kaihanga;
āe rā, te hunga katoa anō e whakawhirinaki ana ki a rātou.
9 E Īharaira, whakawhirinaki ki a Ihowā!
Ko ia tō rātou āwhina, tō rātou whakangungu rākau.
10 E te whare o Ārona, whakawhirinaki ki a Ihowā!
Ko ia tō rātou āwhina, tō rātou whakangungu rākau.
11 E te hunga e wehi ana i a Ihowā, whakawhirinaki ki a Ihowā!
Ko ia tō rātou āwhina, tō rātou whakangungu rākau.
12 Kua mahara a Ihowā ki a tātou; māna tātou e manaaki;
māna e manaaki te whare o Īharaira;
māna e manaaki te whare o Ārona;
13 ka manaakitia e ia te hunga e wehi ana ki a Ihowā,
te iti, te rahi.
14 Ka tāpiritia anō e Ihowā ki a koutou,
ki a koutou tahi ko ā koutou tamariki.
15 He manaakitanga koutou nā Ihowā,
nā te kaihanga o te rangi, o te whenua.
16 Ko ngā rangi, he rangi nō Ihowā;
ko te whenua ia, he mea hōmai nāna ki ngā tama a te tangata.
17 E kore ngā tūpāpaku e whakamoemiti ki a Ihowā;
me te hunga katoa anō e heke ana ki te wahangūtanga.
18 Ko mātou ia ka whakapai ki a Ihowā
āianei, ā ake ake.
Whakamoemititia a Ihowā!
