1E te Atua, kua tae mai ngā tauiwi ki tōu kāinga tupu;
kua noa i a rātou tōu temepara tapu,
kua waiho a Hiruhārama kia pūranga kau ana.
2Ko ngā tinana mate o āu pononga kua hoatu e rātou
hei kai mā ngā manu o te rangi,
ko te kikokiko o tāu hunga tapu mā ngā kīrehe o te whenua.
3Ko ō rātou toto, ringihia ake e rātou ānō he wai,
ki ngā taha o Hiruhārama;
kāhore hoki he tangata hei tanu i a rātou.
4Kua waiho mātou hei tāwainga mā ō mātou hoa,
hei katanga mā te hunga i tētahi taha, i tētahi taha o mātou.
5Kia pēhea te roa, e Ihowā?
E riri tonu rānei koe ake ake?
E ngiha tonu rānei tōu hae me he kāpura?
6Ringihia tōu riri ki ngā tauiwi
kāhore nei e mātau ki a koe,
ki ngā rangatiratanga
kāhore nei e karanga ki tōu ingoa.
7Kua pau hoki a Hākopa i a rātou,
kua ururua i a rātou tōna nohoanga.
8Kaua rā e maharatia ngā kino o ō mātou tūpuna;
kia hohoro tōu aroha ki mua i a mātou;
kua whakaititia rawatia hoki mātou.
9Āwhinatia mātou, e te Atua o tō mātou whakaoranga,
kia whakakorōriatia ai tōu ingoa;
whakaorangia mātou, hīpokina hoki ō mātou hara,
he mahara ki tōu ingoa.
10Kia mea koia ngā tauiwi,
“Kei hea tō rātou Atua?”
Kia kite atu mātou e mātau ana ngā tauiwi
ki te whakatakinga i te toto o āu pononga i whakahekea nei.
11Kia tae atu ki tōu aroaro te auē a te herehere;
kia rite ki te nui o tōu kaha
tāu whakaora i te hunga e meatia ana kia mate.
12Takiwhitutia atu te utu e hoatu e koe ki ngā uma o ō mātou hoa
mō tā rātou tāwai, e tāwai nei rātou ki a koe, e te Ariki.
13Pēnei ka whakawhetai mātou, tāu iwi,
ngā hipi hoki e hēpara nei koe, ki a koe ake ake;
ka whakakitea e mātou te whakamoemiti ki a koe,
ki ngā whakatupuranga katoa.
