1 He aha ka nana ai ngā tauiwi,
2 Whakatika mai ana ngā kīngi o te whenua,
3 “Kia motumotuhia e tātou ā rāua here,
4 Ko ia kei te rangi e noho ana, ka kata ia;
5 Nā, ka kōrero ia ki a rātou me te riri anō;
6 “Ahakoa rā ka whakawahia e ahau tāku kīngi
7 Māku e whakapuaki te kupu:
8 Īnoi ki ahau, ā, ka hoatu e ahau ki a koe ngā tauiwi hei kāinga mōu,
9 Ka wāwāhi koe i a rātou ki te whiu rino,
10 Nā, kia mahara rā, e ngā kīngi;
11 Mahi atu ki a Ihowā i runga i te wehi,
12 Kihia te tama kei riri ia,
