1E Ihowā, e te Atua o tōku whakaoranga,
he tangi tāku ki tōu aroaro i te ao, i te pō,
2kia tae atu tāku īnoi ki tōu aroaro;
whakatītahatia mai tōu taringa ki tāku tangi.
3Kua kī hoki tōku wairua i te pōuri,
ā, e whakatata ana tōku ora ki te rēinga.
4Kua taua tahitia ahau me te hunga e heke ana ki te rua;
e rite ana ahau ki te tangata kāhore ōna āwhina!
5I makā ki waenga i ngā tūpāpaku,
me he tangata i patua e takoto ana i te urupā,
kāhore nei e maharatia e koe i muri;
he mea momotu kē rātou nā tōu ringa.
6Kua whakatakotoria ahau e koe ki te rua i raro riro,
ki te pōuri, ki ngā rire.
7E pēhia ana ahau e tōu riri,
e pākia ana hoki e koe ki āu ngaru katoa. Hera
8Kua whakamataratia atu e koe ōku hoa kia tawhiti i ahau;
kua meinga ahau e koe hei mea whakarihariha ki a rātou;
kua uakina mai ahau, ā, kāhore e puta ki waho;
9kua hē tōku kanohi i te tangihanga.
E karanga ana ahau ki a koe, e Ihowā,
i ngā rā katoa, kua totoro hoki ōku ringa ki a koe.
10Tērā rānei koe e mahi merekara ki ngā tūpāpaku?
E ara koia te hunga kua mate ki te whakamoemiti ki a koe? Hera
11Ka kauwhautia rānei tōu aroha i roto i te urupā?
Tōu pono i roto i te ngaromanga?
12E mātauria koia āu mea whakamīharo i roto i te pōuri,
tōu tika i te whenua o te warewaretanga?
13Ko ahau ia kua karanga ki a koe, e Ihowā;
ā, i te ata ka tae atu tāku īnoi ki tōu aroaro.
14He aha, e Ihowā, i pangā ai tōku wairua e koe?
He aha i huna ai tōu mata ki ahau?
15Nō tōku tamarikitanga ake anō i pākia ai ahau,
i whakahemohemo ai; i ahau e pēhia ana e āu whakawehi,
ka pororaru noa iho.
16I tika tōu riri nui mā runga i ahau;
kua haukotia ahau e āu mea whakawehi.
17Ānō he wai rātou ki te karapoti i ahau i te rā roa nei;
hui tahi rātou ki te taiāwhio i ahau.
18Kua wehea e koe kia tawhiti atu i ahau te hoa hei aroha mai,
me ōku hoa ki roto ki te pōuri.
