1 Ko e fakamanatu ʻe he siasi ki heʻene lelei ʻi muʻa. 7 ʻOku lāunga ia ʻi heʻene tuʻutāmaki ni. 17 ʻOku fakahā ʻe ia ʻene angatonu, 24 Pea ne kole fakamātoato ke maluʻi ia.
Ki he Takimuʻa, ko e akonaki ki he ngaahi foha ʻo Kola.
1 ʻE ʻOtua, naʻa mau fanongo ʻaki homau telinga,
pea kuo tala kiate kimautolu ʻe heʻemau ngaahi tamai,
ʻae ngāue naʻa ke fai ʻi honau ngaahi ʻaho,
ʻi he ngaahi kuonga ʻi muʻa.
2 Naʻa ke kapusi kituʻa ʻae hiteni ʻaki ho nima,
mo ke tō ʻakinautolu:
naʻa ke tautea ʻae kakai,
pea mafola atu ʻakinautolu.
3 He naʻe ʻikai te nau maʻu ʻae fonua ʻi he heletā ʻanautolu,
pea naʻe ʻikai fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu ʻe honau nima:
ka ko ho ʻaofi nima, mo ho nima toʻomataʻu, mo e maama ʻo ho fofonga,
koeʻuhi naʻa ke ʻofa kiate kinautolu.
4 He ko koe ko hoku Tuʻi,
ʻE ʻOtua ke ke fekau ʻae fakamoʻui kia Sēkope.
5 Ko e meʻa ʻiate koe temau tulaki homau ngaahi fili:
ko e meʻa ʻi ho huafa temau malamalaki ki lalo ʻakinautolu ʻoku tuʻu hake kiate kimautolu.
6 Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te u falala ki heʻeku kaufana,
pea ʻe ʻikai fakamoʻui au ʻe heʻeku heletā.
7 Ka ko koe kuo ke fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu mei homau ngaahi fili,
pea kuo ke tuku ke mā ʻakinautolu naʻe fehiʻa kiate kimautolu.
8 ʻOku mau vikiviki ʻi he ʻOtua ʻi he ʻaho kotoa,
ʻo fakamālō ki ho huafa ʻo taʻengata.
Sila.
9 Ka kuo ke liʻaki, pea tuku ke mā ʻakimautolu;
pea ʻikai te ke ʻalu atu mo ʻemau ngaahi kongakau.
10 ʻOku ke pule ke mau foki mai mei he fili:
pea ko kinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate kimautolu ʻoku nau maumau maʻanautolu.
11 Kuo ke foaki ʻakimautolu ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipi kuo fili ki he kai;
pea kuo ke fakahēʻi ʻakimautolu ki he hiteni.
12 ʻOku ke fakatau hoʻo kakai taʻehatotongi,
pea ʻoku ʻikai te ke fakalahi hoʻo koloa ʻaki honau totongi.
13 ʻOku ke ngaohi ʻakimautolu ko e manukiʻanga ʻo homau ngaahi kaungāʻapi,
ko e meʻa manuki mo e taukaeʻanga ʻokinautolu ʻoku nofo takatakai ʻiate kimautolu.
14 ʻOku ke ngaohi ʻakimautolu ko e lumaʻanga ʻoe hiteni,
ko e kalokaloʻanga ʻoe ʻulu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai.
15 ʻOku ʻi hoku ʻao maʻuaipē ʻeku kovi,
pea kuo ʻufiʻufi ʻaki au ʻae mā ʻo hoku mata,
16 Koeʻuhi ko e leʻo ʻo ia ʻoku ne taukae mo kape;
ko e meʻa ʻi he fili mo e fakafāsifasi.
17 Kuo hoko ʻae meʻa ni kotoa pē kiate kimautolu;
ka naʻe ʻikai te mau fakangalongaloʻi koe,
pea naʻe ʻikai te mau fai kākā ʻi hoʻo fuakava.
18 ʻOku ʻikai foki kimui homau loto,
pe afe mei ho hala homau ʻaluʻanga;
19 Kuo ke fesifesi ʻakimautolu ʻi he potu ʻoe fanga talākoni,
mo ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻakimautolu ʻae ʻata ʻoe mate.
20 Kapau kuo mau fakangaloʻi ʻae huafa ʻo homau ʻOtua,
pe mafao atu homau nima ki ha ʻotua kehe;
21 ʻIkai ʻe ʻeke ia ʻe he ʻOtua?
He ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi ʻae ngaahi meʻa fufū ʻoe loto.
22 ʻIo, koeʻuhi ko koe ʻoku tāmateʻi ʻakimautolu ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē;
ʻoku lau ʻakimautolu ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipi ke tāmateʻi.
23 Ke ke ʻā, ko e hā ʻoku ke mohe ai, ʻE Sihova?
Tuʻu hake,
ʻoua naʻa ke liʻaki ʻakimautolu ʻo taʻengata.
24 Ko e hā ʻoku ke fufū ai ho fofonga,
ʻo fakangaloʻi homau tautea mo homau taʻomia?
25 He kuo lolohifo homau laumālie ki he efu:
kuo hiki homau kete ki he kelekele.
26 Tuʻu hake ko homau tokoni,
pea huhuʻi ʻakimautolu koeʻuhi ko hoʻo ʻaloʻofa.
