1 Kia pēhea te roa o tōu wareware ki ahau, e Ihowā? Mō ake tonu atu rānei?
2 Kia pēhea te roa o tōku whakaaroaronga i roto i tōku wairua,
3 Titiro mai, whakahokia mai he kupu ki ahau, e Ihowā, e tōku Atua;
4 Kei mea mai tōku hoariri, “Kua taea ia e ahau,”
5 Ko ahau ia e whakawhirinaki ana ki tāu mahi tohu;
6 Ka waiata ahau ki a Ihowā,
