Te Manako ki te Atua
He hīmene nā Rāwiri, i a ia i te koraha o Hūrā.
1E te Atua, nōku koe Atua;ka moata tāku rapu i a koe.E hiainu ana tōku wairua ki a koe,e hiahia ana ōku kikokiko ki a koe,i te whenua maroke, ruha noa,kāhore nei he wai.2Koia i titiro atu ai ahau ki a koe i te wāhi tapu,kia kite ai i tōu kaha, i tōu korōria.3Pai atu tōu aroha i te ora;mō reira ka whakamoemiti ōku ngutu ki a koe.4Inā, ka whakapai ahau ki a koe i ahau anō e ora nei;ka totoro atu ōku ringa i runga i tōu ingoa.5Ka mākona tōku wairua, ānō i te hinu wheua, i te ngako,ā, ka hari ōku ngutu ina whakamoemiti tōku māngai ki a koe.6Ina mahara ahau ki a koe i runga i tōku moenga,ina whakaaro ki a koe i ngā mataaratanga o te pō.7Ko koe hoki tōku kaiāwhina;nā, ka hari ahau ki te taumarumarutanga iho o ōu pākau.8Piri tonu tōku wairua ki a koee tautoko ake ana tōu matau i ahau.9Ko te hunga e whai ana i tōku wairua kia whakangaromia,ka riro rātou ki ngā wāhi o raro rawa o te whenua.10Ka tukua atu rātou ki te kaha o te hoari;hei wāhi rātou mā ngā pokiha.11Tēnā ko te kīngi, ka hari ia ki te Atua;ka whakamanamana ngā tāngata katoa ko ia nei tā rātou oati;ā, ka purua te māngai o te hunga katoa e kōrero teka ana.
