Berean Standard Bible
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1I cry aloud to the LORD; I lift my voice to the LORD for mercy.
1Naʻaku tangi kia Sihova ʻaki hoku leʻo; ne u kole tāumaʻu kia Sihova ʻaki hoku leʻo.
2I pour out my complaint before Him; I reveal my trouble to Him.
2Naʻaku lilingi ʻeku fakakaukau ʻi hono ʻao; ne u fakahā ʻi hono ʻao ʻeku mamahi.
3Although my spirit grows faint within me, You know my way. Along the path I travel they have hidden a snare for me.
3ʻI he taʻomia ʻa hoku laumālie, ne ke ʻilo ai hoku ʻaluʻanga. ʻI he hala ne u ʻeveʻeva ai kuo nau ʻai fufū ʻae tauhele kiate au.
4Look to my right and see; no one attends to me. There is no refuge for me; no one cares for my soul.
4Ne u sio, mo vakai ʻi hoku nima toʻomataʻu, ka naʻe ʻikai ha tangata te ne ʻiloʻi au: naʻe ʻikai haʻaku hūfanga; naʻe ʻikai tokanga ha tangata ki hoku laumālie.
5I cry to You, O LORD: “You are my refuge, my portion in the land of the living.”
5Naʻaku tangi kiate koe, ʻE Sihova; ne u pehē, Ko koe ko hoku hūfanga, mo hoku ʻinasi ʻi he fonua ʻoe moʻui.
6Listen to my cry, for I am brought quite low. Rescue me from my pursuers, for they are too strong for me.
6Ke ke tokanga ki heʻeku tangi; he ʻoku ou vaivai ʻaupito: fakamoʻui au mei hoku kau fakatanga; he ʻoku nau mālohi hake kiate au.
7Free my soul from prison, that I may praise Your name. The righteous will gather around me because of Your goodness to me.
7ʻOmi hoku laumālie mei he fale fakapōpula, koeʻuhi ke u fakamālō ai ki ho huafa: ʻe kāpui au ʻe he angatonu; he te ke fai lelei lahi kiate au.
