He Īnoi mō te Whakawāteatanga
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi: Nekinoto. He Makiri, nā Rāwiri i te haerenga o ngā Tiwhi ki a Haora, kī ai, “He teka ianei kei a mātou a Rāwiri e piri ana?”
1 E te Atua, kia whakaorangia ahau e tōu ingoa;
kia whakawākia hoki ahau e tōu kaha.
2 E te Atua, whakarongo ki tāku īnoi,
tahuri mai tōu taringa ki ngā kupu a tōku māngai.
3 Nō te mea kua whakatika mai ngā tāngata iwi kē ki ahau,
ā, e whāia ana tōku wairua e te hunga tūkino;
kāhore i waiho e rātou te Atua ki tō rātou aroaro.
Hera
4 Tēnei te Atua hei kaiāwhina mōku;
kei roto te Ariki i te hunga e tautoko ake ana i tōku wairua.
5 Māna e utu te kino o ōku hoariri;
hunā rātou, he pono nei hoki koe.
6 Ka kakama ahau ki te mea patunga tapu ki a koe,
ka whakamoemiti ki tōu ingoa, e Ihowā,
he mea pai hoki.
7 Kua whakaorangia hoki ahau e ia i roto i ngā hē katoa;
ā, kua titiro tōku kanohi ki te mea e hiahia ana ahau ki ōku hoariri.
