1 E te Atua, nōku koe Atua;
2 Koia i titiro atu ai ahau ki a koe i te wāhi tapu,
3 Pai atu tōu aroha i te ora;
4 Inā, ka whakapai ahau ki a koe i ahau anō e ora nei;
5 Ka mākona tōku wairua, ānō i te hinu wheua, i te ngako,
6 Ina mahara ahau ki a koe i runga i tōku moenga,
7 Ko koe hoki tōku kaiāwhina;
8 Piri tonu tōku wairua ki a koe
9 Ko te hunga e whai ana i tōku wairua kia whakangaromia,
10 Ka tukua atu rātou ki te kaha o te hoari;
11 Tēnā ko te kīngi, ka hari ia ki te Atua;
