1“Kua hōhā tōku wairua ki tōku ora;
ka tukua e ahau tāku tangi kia rere ana;
ka kōrero ahau i te kikiwatanga o tōku ngākau.
2Ka mea ahau ki te Atua, Kaua ahau e whakahēngia;
whakakitea ki ahau te take i totohe ai koe ki ahau.
3He mea pai rānei ki a koe kia tūkino koe,
kia whakahāwea ki te mahi a ōu ringa,
ā, kia whiti tōu mārama ki te whakaaro o te hunga kino?
4He kanohi kikokiko rānei ōu?
He pēnei rānei tāu titiro me tā te tangata titiro?
5He rite rānei ōu rā ki ō te tangata rā?
He rite rānei ōu tāu ki ō te tangata rā?
6I uiuia ai e koe tōku kino, i rapua ai e koe tōku hara?
7Ahakoa e mōhio ana anō koe ehara ahau i te mea hē,
kāhore anō tētahi hei whakaora i roto i tōu ringa?
8“Nā ōu ringa ahau i mahi, i hanga, he mea hono mārie i tētahi taha, i tētahi taha;
otiia, e whakangaromia ana ahau e koe.
9Kia mahara rā, nāu ahau i hanga, ānō he paru;
tērā rānei koe e whakahoki anō i ahau ki te puehu?
10He teka ianei he mea riringi ahau nāu ānō he waiū,
meinga ana ahau e koe kia tetepe ānō he tīhi?
11Nāu ahau i whakakākahu ki te kiri, ki te kikokiko,
ā, nāu anō ahau i hohou ki te wheua, ki te uaua.
12Whakawhiwhia ana ahau e koe ki te ora, ki te atawhai,
ā, he tirotirohanga mai nāu i mau ai tōku wairua.
13“Heoi, hunā ana anō ēnei mea e koe i roto i tōu ngākau;
e mōhio ana hoki ahau kei a koe anō tēnei.
14Ki te hara ahau, ka mātauria e koe;
e kore anō koe e whakakāhore ki tōku hē.
15Ki te hē ahau, auē tōku mate!
Ki te tika ahau, e kore tonu e ara tōku māhunga;
he kī hoki nōku i te whakamā me te titiro iho ki tōku mate.
16Ā, ki te whakarewa ake tōku māhunga i a ia,
ka whāia ahau e koe ānō he raiona;
ā, ka whakakite anō koe i a koe, i tōu mīharo, ki ahau.
17E whakahoutia ana e koe āu kaiwhakaatu i ōku hē,
e whakanuia ana hoki e koe tōu riri ki ahau;
ko ngā putanga kētanga, ko te whawhai hei pēhi i ahau.
18“He aha rā ahau i whakaputaina mai ai e koe i roto i te kōpū?
Te hemo noa atu ai ahau, ā, kīhai tētahi kanohi i kite i ahau.
19Pēnei kua rite ahau, ānō kua kāhore noa iho;
kua mauria atu ahau i te kōpū ki te urupā.
20He teka rānei he torutoru ōku rā?
Kāti rā, waiho ake koa ahau, kia āhua mākoha ana i tēnei wā iti,
21keiwhā haere ahau ki te wāhi e kore nei ahau e hoki mai,
ki te whenua o te pōuri, o te ātārangi o te mate;
22ki te whenua o te pōuri kerekere, o te tino o te pōuri;
he whenua nō te ātārangi o te mate, kāhore nei ō reira tikanga,
ā, ko tōna mārama, koia anō te pōuri.”
