Te Kino o te Tangata
(Waiata 53)
Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Nā Rāwiri.
1 Kua kī te wairangi i tōna ngākau,
“Kāhore he Atua.”
Kua pirau rātou, he whakahouhou ā rātou mahi,
kāhore tētahi e mahi ana i te pai.
2 I titiro iho a Ihowā i te rangi ki ngā tama a te tangata,
kia kite me kāhore tētahi e mahara ana,
e rapu ana i te Atua.
3 Kua peka kē rātou katoa kua pirau tahi;
kāhore tētahi e mahi ana i te pai, kāhore kia kotahi.
4 E kore rānei e mōhio ngā kaimahi katoa o te kino?
E kai nei i tōku iwi, me te mea e kai taro ana,
ā, kāhore e karanga ki a Ihowā.
5 Nā, i reira rātou e tūiri noa ana;
kei roto hoki te Atua i te whakatupuranga o te hunga tika.
6 Meinga ana e koutou te whakaaro o te hunga iti hei whakamā,
nō te mea ko Ihowā tōna piringa.
7 Auē, me i puta mai te whakaoranga o Īharaira i Hiona!
Kia whakahokia e Ihowā tāna iwi i te whakarau,
ka whakamanamana a Hākopa, ka hari a Īharaira.
