1Ka whakawhetai tonu mātou ki a koe, e te Atua,
ka whakawhetai tonu mātou; kei te tata mai hoki tōu ingoa.
E kōrerotia ana e te tangata āu mahi whakamīharo.
2“Ka kitea e ahau te wā e rite ana,
ka tika tāku whakawā.
3Kūteretere noa iho te whenua me ōna tāngata katoa;
nāku i whakatū ōna pou. Hera
4I mea ahau ki te hunga whakakake, ‘Kāti rā te whakakake,’
ki te hunga hara anō, ‘Kaua e whakaarahia te haona;
5kaua tō koutou haona e whakaarahia ki runga,
kāti te whakamārō i te kakī ina kōrero.’ ”
6Nō te mea kāhore he aranga i te rāwhiti,
kāhore i te hauāuru, kāhore hoki i te tonga.
7Ko te Atua ia te kaiwhakawā;
ko tēnei e whakaititia iho ana e ia,
ko tērā e whakaarahia ake ana.
8Kei te ringa hoki o Ihowā he kapu,
pāhuka tonu te wāina;
kī tonu, whakananu rawa,
hei ringihanga māna;
ko ngā nganga ia,
mā te hunga kino katoa o te whenua e tatau, e inu.
9Ko ahau ia, ka kauwhau tonu;
ka hīmene ki te Atua o Hākopa.
10Ā, ka kotia e ahau ngā haona katoa o te hunga kino;
ka whakaarahia ake ia ngā haona o te tangata tika.
