1He Makiri nā Rāwiri; he īnoi i a ia i roto i te ana. He karanga tā tōku reo ki a Ihowā; he īnoi tā tōku reo ki a Ihowā.
2Horahia ana tāku īnoi ki tōna aroaro; whakaaturia ana e ahau tōku mate ki tōna aroaro.
3I te ngaromanga o tōku wairua i roto i ahau i mātau koe ki tōku ara. Kua whakatakotoria pukutia e rātou te māhanga mōku i te ara i haere ai ahau.
4Titiro ki tōku taha matau, kia kite – kāhore hoki tētahi tangata e mōhio ana ki ahau; kāhore he piringa mōku; kāhore tētahi e mahara ana ki tōku wairua.
5I karanga ahau ki a koe, e Ihowā; i mea, “Ko koe tōku piringa, tōku wāhi i te whenua o te hunga ora.”
6Tahuri mai ki tāku karanga, kua whakaititia rawatia hoki ahau. Whakaorangia ahau i ōku kaitūkino, he kaha rawa hoki rātou i ahau.
7Whakaputaina tōku wairua i te herehere, kia whakamoemiti ai ahau ki tōu ingoa. Ka karapotia ahau e te hunga tika; nōu ka atawhai nei i ahau.
