Te Īnoi a te Tangata e Mate ana
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He hīmene nā Rāwiri.
1 Ka hari te tangata e whakaaro ana ki te rawakore;
e whakaorangia ia e Ihowā i te rā o te hē.
2 Mā Ihowā ia e tiaki, e whakaora;
ka whakaharitia ia i runga i te whenua.
E kore anō e tukua e koe ki ngā hiahia o ōna hoariri.
3 Mā Ihowā ia e whakakaha, i a ia e whakaruhi ana i runga i te moenga:
māu anō e whakapai katoa tōna moenga i a ia e mate ana.
4 I mea ahau, “E Ihowā, tohungia ahau;
rongoātia tōku wairua; kua hara hoki ahau ki a koe.”
5 He kino te kōrero a ōku hoariri mōku, e mea ana,
“Āhea rānei ia mate ai, pirau ai tōna ingoa?”
6 Ā, ki te haere mai ia kia kite i ahau, ka kōrero horihori ia;
e āmi ana tōna ngākau i te kino māna;
i tōna putanga ki waho, kōrerotia ana e ia.
7 E kōmuhumuhu ana mōku te hunga katoa e kino ana ki ahau;
e whakatakoto ana i te kino mōku.
8 E ai tā rātou, “E piri ana te mate kino ki a ia;
ā, ka takoto nei ia, heoi anō tōna aranga ake.”
9 Āe, ko tōku hoa ake anō, i whakawhirinaki ai ahau,
i kai nei i tāku taro, kua hiki ake tōna rekereke ki ahau.
10 Ko koe ia, e Ihowā, kia aroha ki ahau;
ā, whakaarahia ahau, kia utua ai rātou e ahau.
11 Nā konei ahau i mātau ai e pai ana koe ki ahau,
nō te mea kāhore tōku hoariri e whakamanamana ki ahau.
12 Ko ahau ia, ko koe e whakamau ake ana i ahau i runga i tōku ngākau tapatahi;
e whakatū ake ana hoki i ahau ki tōu aroaro ake tonu atu.
13 Kia whakapaingia a Ihowā, te Atua o Īharaira
inamata riro anō, ake tonu atu anō hoki.
Āmine, āe Āmine.
