¹¶ Ano ra ko Pirirara Huhi; i mea ia,

²Dominion and fear are with him, he maketh peace in his high places.

²Kei a ia te kingitanga me te wehi: ko ia hei hohou i te rongo i ona wahi tiketike.

³Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light arise?

³E taea ranei ana ope te tatau? ko wai hoki i kore te whitingia e tona marama?

⁴How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?

⁴A ma te aha ra te tangata ka whakatikaia mai ai e te Atua? Ma te aha ka ma ai te whanau a te wahine?

⁵Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.

⁵Nana, ko te marama, kahore ona tiahotanga, kahore hoki nga whetu kia ma ki tana titiro:

⁶How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?

⁶Kia iti rawa iho to te tangata, he kutukutu nei! to te tama a te tangata, he iro nei!
