Chapter 3
1 E Ihowā, anō te tini o ōku hoariri, he tokomaha te hunga e whakatika mai ana ki ahau.
2 He tokomaha te mea ana ki tōku wairua, "Hore rawa he whakaoranga mōna i te Atua." Hera
3 Ko koe ia, e Ihowā, hei whakangungu rākau mōku, hei korōria mōku, hei kaiwhakaara i tōku mātenga.
4 I karanga, tōku reo ki a Ihowā; ā, whakahoki kupu mai ana ia ki ahau i tōna maunga tapu. Hera
5 I takoto ahau, i moe; i ara ake anō; nā Ihowā hoki ahau i whakamau ake.
6 E kore ahau e mataku i ngā mano tini o te iwi, kua whakatika mai nei ki ahau karapoti noa.
7 Whakatika, e Ihowā; whakaorangia ahau, e tōku Atua! Nāu hoki i patu te kauae o ōku hoariri katoa; mangungu noa i a koe ngā niho o te hunga kino.
8 Nā Ihowā te whakaoranga. Kei runga i tāu iwi tāu manaaki. Hera
