10 Hanga, e te Atua, he ngakau ma ki roto ki ahau: whakahoutia hoki ki roto ki ahau he wairua tika.11 Kaua ahau e maka i tou aroaro; kaua hoki tou wairua tapu e tangohia i ahau.12 Whakahokia mai ki ahau te hari o tau whakaoranga: tautokona hoki ahau ki te wairua kakama.
10 A clean heart prepare for me, O God, And a right spirit renew within me.11 Cast me not forth from Thy presence, And Thy Holy Spirit take not from me.12 Restore to me the joy of Thy salvation, And a willing spirit doth sustain me.
