Te Kaha me te Tika o te Atua
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi: Muturapena. He hīmene nā Rāwiri.
1Ka whakapaua tōku ngākau ki te whakamoemiti ki a Ihowā,ka kōrerotia e ahau āu mahi whakamīharo katoa.2Ka koa ahau, ka whakamanamana ki a koe,ka hīmene atu ki tōu ingoa, e te Runga Rawa.3I te hokinga whakamuri o ōku hoariri,tūtuki ana rātou, ngaro iho i tōu aroaro.4Nāu hoki i whakatika āku kōrero me tōku whakawā;i runga koe i te torōna e noho ana, e whakarite tika ana.5Kua whakatūpehupehu koe ki ngā tauiwi,hunā ana e koe te tangata kino,horoia atu ana tō rātou ingoa ake ake.6Ko te hoariri, mutu pū rātou, he ngaromanga oti tonu iho;ā, ko ngā pā i hunā e koe,ngaro whakarere tō rātou whakamaharatanga.7Ko Ihowā ia noho tonu hei kīngi, ake, ake;kua whakapaia e ia tōna torōna mō te whakawā.8Ā, e whakarite ia mō te ao i runga i te tika,ka whakatakoto tikanga mō ngā iwi i runga i te pono.9Hei pā teko anō a Ihowā mō te tangata e tūkinotia ana,hei pā teko i ngā wā o te hē.10Ā, ka whakawhirinaki ki a koe te hunga e mātau ana ki tōu ingoa;nō te mea e kore e whakarērea e koe,e Ihowā, te hunga e rapu ana i a koe.11Hīmene ki a Ihowā e noho nei i Hiona.Whakapuakina i waenganui ngā iwi āna mahi.12Ka whakataki toto ia, ka mahara ia ki a rātou;kāhore e wareware i a ia te karanga a te hunga iti.13Tohungia ahau, e Ihowā;titiro ki tōku mate i te hunga e kino ana ki ahau,e te kaiwhakaara i ahau i ngā tatau o te mate;14kia whakakitea katoatia ai e ahauōu whakamoemiti i ngā tatau o te tamāhine o Hiona;ka hari ahau ki tāu whakaoranga.15Kua tapoko ngā tauiwi ki te rua i keria e rātou;kua mau tō rātou waewae i roto i te kupenga i hunā e rātou.16Kua mātauria a Ihowā ki te whakawā e whakaritea ana e ia;he māhanga mō te tangata kino te mahi a ōna ringa. Hikaiono. Hera.17Ka hoki ngā tāngata kino ki te rēinga,arā ngā iwi katoa e wareware ana ki te Atua.18E kore hoki e warewarea tonutia te tangata rawakore;e kore e taka tonu tā te hunga iti i tūmanako atu ai.19E ara, e Ihowā, kei riro i tā te tangata;kia whakawākia ngā tauiwi i tōu aroaro.20E Ihowā, meinga rātou kia wehi;kia mātau ngā tauiwi he tangata nei anō rātou. Hera
