TSK · Ihaia 59:11

E haereere pouri ana ahau, kahore he ra; ko taku whakatikanga ake i roto i te whakaminenga, ka karanga awhina.

Kua kore oku kaha, maru rawa ahau: hamama ana taku aue i te mamae o toku ngakau.

¶ E whakatata mai ana te hunga e whai ana i te whanoke: kei tawhiti atu ratou i tau ture.

I koroki ahau, pera i ta te warou, i ta te kareni; i tangi ahau me te kukupa; matawaia ana oku kanohi i te tirohanga whakarunga. E Ihowa, e tukinotia ana ahau, pikitia toku turanga.

¶ Na reira matara noa atu te whakawa i a tatou, te mau tatou i te tika: e taria atu ana e tatou te marama, na ko te pouri; te tiaho, na kei te haere nei tatou i te pouri.

¶ Aue, me he wai toku mahunga! me he puna roimata oku kanohi, kia tangihia ai e ahau nga tupapaku o te tamahine a taku iwi i te ao, i te po!

Kahore hoki ratou i karanga ki ahau, he mea na o ratou ngakau, engari e aue ana ratou i runga i o ratou moenga; e huihui ana ratou, he whakaaro ki te witi, ki te waina, a e whakakeke ana ratou ki ahau.
