1Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi: ki a Ierutunu. He hīmene nā Rāwiri. Ko te Atua anake tāku e tatari nei; kei a ia te whakaoranga mōku.
2Ko ia anake tōku kōhatu, tōku whakaoranga, tōku pā hoki, e kore e nui tōku ngāueuetanga.
3Kia pēhea te roa o tā koutou tatau ki te tangata, kia whakamatea ai e koutou, e koutou katoa, ka rite ki te taiepa e tūngou ana, ki te wāwā ka tata te hinga?
4Heoi anō tā rātou e rūnanga ai ko te turaki i a ia i tōna wāhi teitei; E āhuareka ana ki te teka; e manaaki ana ō rātou māngai, ā, e kanga ana a roto i a rātou. Hera
5Tatari, e tōku wairua, ki te Atua anake; ko ia tāku e tūmanako nei.
6Ko ia anake tōku kōhatu, tōku whakaoranga, tōku pā hoki; e kore ahau e whakangāueuetia.
7Kei te Atua te whakaoranga mōku, te korōria anō mōku; kei te Atua te kōhatu o tōku kaha, tōku piringa.
8Whakawhirinaki ki a ia i ngā wā katoa, e te iwi, ringihia tō koutou ngākau ki tōna aroaro; hei piringa mō tātou te Atua. Hera
9He pono he mea memeha noa ngā ware, he teka noa ngā rangatira; ki te pāunatia rātou, māmā noa ake rātou tahi i te horihori.
10Kaua e whakawhirinaki ki te tūkino, kei wairangi hoki ki te pāhua; ki te tini haere ngā taonga, kei whakamanawa tō koutou ngākau ki reira.
11Kotahi kōrerotanga a te Atua, ka rua ōku rongonga i tēnei: nō te Atua te kaha,
12nāu anō, e te Ariki, te mahi tohu; rite tonu hoki ki tāna mahi tāu utu ki te tangata.
