He Hīmene Whakawhetai
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He hīmene, he waiata.
1 Hāmama, e te whenua katoa, ki te Atua!
2 Hīmenetia te korōria o tōna ingoa,
kia whai korōria te whakamoemiti ki a ia.
3 Mea atu ki te Atua, “Anō te wehi o āu mahi!
Mā te nui o tōu kaha e ngohengohe ai ōu hoariri ki a koe.
4 E koropiko katoa te whenua ki a koe;
ka hīmene ki a koe;
ka hīmene rātou ki tōu ingoa.”
Hera
5 Haere mai kia kite i ngā mahi a te Atua:
mataku rawa tāna mahi ki ngā tama a te tangata.
6 Nāna i mea te moana hei tuawhenua;
haere ā-waewae ana rātou rā roto i te awa;
hari ana mātou ki a ia i reira.
7 Ko tōna kāwanatanga tūturu tonu i runga i tōna kaha;
e titiro ana ōna kanohi ki ngā tauiwi;
kei whakakake te hunga tutū.
Hera
8 Whakapaingia tō tātou Atua, e ngā iwi;
kia rangona te reo whakamoemiti ki a ia.
9 Nāna nei hoki i mau ai tō tātou wairua ki te ora,
kāhore hoki e tukua e ia ō tātou waewae kia nekehia.
10 Kua whakamātauria hoki mātou e koe, e te Atua;
whakarewaia ana mātou e koe,
ānō he hiriwa e whakarewaia ana.
11 Kua kawea nei mātou e koe ki roto ki te kupenga;
whakapīkaua ana e koe te mea whakamamae ki ō mātou hope.
12 I meinga anō e koe ō mātou upoko kia ekengia hōihotia e te tangata;
i rā roto mātou i te kāpura, i te wai;
heoi whakaputaina mai ana mātou e koe ki te wāhi mōmona.
13 Ka tomo ahau me ngā tahunga tinana ki tōu whare;
ka whakamana ahau i āku kupu taurangi ki a koe,
14 ērā i puaki i ōku ngutu,
i kōrerotia e tōku māngai i ahau e pōuri ana.
15 Ka whakaekea e ahau māu ngā mea mōmona hei tahunga tinana,
ngātahi anō me te mea kakara o ngā hipi toa;
ka tukua e ahau he pūru, he koati.
Hera
16 Haere mai, whakarongo, e koutou katoa e wehi ana ki te Atua,
ā, māku e whakapuaki tāna i mea ai ki tōku wairua.
17 I tangi tōku māngai ki a ia;
i whakanuia anō ia e tōku arero.
18 Ki te whakaaroa e tōku ngākau te hē,
e kore te Ariki e whakarongo mai.
19 Nei rā he pono kua whakarongo te Atua,
kua tahuri ia ki tōku reo īnoi.
20 Kia whakapaingia te Atua,
kīhai nei i whakapeau kē i tāku īnoi,
i tāna atawhai hoki ki ahau.
