He Īnoi Whakawhirinaki
He Mikitama nā Rāwiri.
1Tiakina ahau, e te Atua;e whakawhirinaki nei hoki ahau ki a koe.2Kua mea ahau ki a Ihowā, “Ko koe tōku Ariki,kāhore ōku pai i tua atu i a koe.”3Ko te hunga tapu i runga i te whenua,te hunga pai rawa, kua ahu katoa tōku āhuareka ki a rātou.4Ka whakanuia ngā mamae o te hunga e whakawhiti ana i a Ihowā mō tētahi atua kē;e kore e ringihia e ahau ā rātou ringihanga toto,e kore anō ō rātou ingoa e whakahuatia e ōku ngutu.5Ko Ihowā te wāhi i wehea mai mōku, tāku kapu hoki;ko koe te kaiwhakapūmau i te wāhanga māku.6Kua takoto ōku aho ki ngā wāhi āhuareka,inā, he wāhi pai tōku.7Ka whakapaingia e ahau a Ihowā, i whakamahara nei i ahau;ka whakaako anō hoki ōku whatumanawa i ahau i te pō.8Kua waiho tonu e ahau a Ihowā ki tōku aroaro;kei tōku ringa matau nei ia, e kore ahau e whakakorikoria.9Koia i koa ai tōku ngākau, i whakamanamana ai tōku korōria,i takoto tūmanako ai anō ōku kikokiko.10Nō te mea e kore e waiho e koe tōku wairua i te rēinga,e kore e tukua tāu Mea Tapu kia kite i te pirau.11Ka whakakitea mai e koe ki ahau te huarahi o te ora;kei tōu aroaro te hari nui,kei tōu matau ngā āhuareka e kore e mutu.
