He Īnoi mō te Whakawāteatanga
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi: Nekinoto. He Makiri, nā Rāwiri i te haerenga o ngā Tiwhi ki a Haora, kī ai, “He teka ianei kei a mātou a Rāwiri e piri ana?”
1E te Atua, kia whakaorangia ahau e tōu ingoa;kia whakawākia hoki ahau e tōu kaha.2E te Atua, whakarongo ki tāku īnoi,tahuri mai tōu taringa ki ngā kupu a tōku māngai.3Nō te mea kua whakatika mai ngā tāngata iwi kē ki ahau,ā, e whāia ana tōku wairua e te hunga tūkino;kāhore i waiho e rātou te Atua ki tō rātou aroaro. Hera4Tēnei te Atua hei kaiāwhina mōku;kei roto te Ariki i te hunga e tautoko ake ana i tōku wairua.5Māna e utu te kino o ōku hoariri;hunā rātou, he pono nei hoki koe.6Ka kakama ahau ki te mea patunga tapu ki a koe,ka whakamoemiti ki tōu ingoa, e Ihowā,he mea pai hoki.7Kua whakaorangia hoki ahau e ia i roto i ngā hē katoa;ā, kua titiro tōku kanohi ki te mea e hiahia ana ahau ki ōku hoariri.
