1. Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi Nekinoto, he mea Heminiti. He himene na Rawiri. E Ihowa, kaua e whakatupehupehu mai ki ahau, ina riri koe, kaua ano ahau e pakia ina arita mai koe.
2. E Ihowa, tohungia ahau, he ngoikore hoki ahau: rongoatia ahau, e Ihowa, e ohooho ana hoki oku wheua.
3. E ohooho noa iho ana hoki toku wairua: ko koe ia, e Ihowa, kia pehea atu te roa?
4. Hoki mai, e Ihowa, kia mawhiti atu toku wairua: kia mahara ki tou aroha, a whakaorangia ahau.
5. Kahore hoki he mahara ki a koe ina mate: ko wai hei whakawhetai ki a koe i roto i te reinga?
6. Mauiui iho ahau i toku auetanga; e manu ana toku moenga i ahau a pau noa te po; e whakamakukuria ana e ahau toku takotoranga ki oku roimata.
7. Pakoko kau toku kanohi i te tangi; kua koroheke haere i oku hoariri katoa.
8. Mawehe atu i ahau, e nga kaimahi katoa i te kino; kua rongo nei hoki a Ihowa i te reo o taku tangi.
9. Kua rongo a Ihowa ki taku inoi; ka manako a Ihowa ki taku karakia.
10. Ka whakama, ka pokaikaha noa iho oku hoariri katoa: ka hoki ratou, ka pa whakarere atu te whakama.
