Te Kino o te Tangata me te Pai o te Atua
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Nā te pononga a Ihowā, nā Rāwiri.
1E mea ana te mahi kino a te tangata harai roto i tōku ngākau,kāhore he wehi ki te Atuai mua i ōna kanohi.2E whakapai ana hoki ōna kanohi ake ki a ia anō,e kore e kitea tōna hara, e kore e kinongia.3He kino ngā kupu a tōna māngai, he rauhanga hoki,kua mahue i a ia te mahara, te mahi i te pai.4He mahi nanakia tāna e whakaaro ai i runga i tōna moenga;ehara i te pai te ara e tūria ana e ia,kāhore ōna whakarihariha ki te kino.5Kei ngā rangi, e Ihowā, tāu mahi tohu;tutuki noa atu tōu pono ki ngā kapua.6Rite tonu tōu tika ki ngā maunga o te Atua;he rire nui āu whakaritenga;ko koe, e Ihowā, te kaiwhakaora i te tangata, i te kararehe.7Anō te pai o tōu aroha, e te Atua;ka okioki ngā tama a te tangatai raro i te taumarumarutanga iho o ōu pākau.8Ka mākona rātou i ngā mea mōmona o tōu whare;ka whakainumia anō e koe ki te awa o āu mea whakahari.9Kei a koe hoki te puna o te ora;mā tōu mārama ka kite ai mātou i te mārama.10Kia roa tōu aroha ki te hunga e mātau ana ki a koe,tōu tika hoki ki te hunga ngākau tika.11Kei puta mai ki ahau te waewae whakapakari;kei āia atu ahau e te ringa o te hunga hara.12Hinga iho i reira ngā kaimahi i te kino;kua turakina iho, tē āhei te ara ake.
