Berean Standard Bible
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1To You, O LORD, I call; be not deaf to me, O my Rock. For if You remain silent, I will be like those descending to the Pit.
1Te u tangi kiate koe, ʻE Sihova ko hoku makatuʻu; ʻoua naʻa ke taʻeʻafioʻi au: telia, ʻi hoʻo taʻeʻafioʻi au, te u hoko ʻo tatau mo kinautolu ʻoku ʻalu hifo ki he luo.
2Hear my cry for mercy when I call to You for help, when I lift up my hands toward Your holy sanctuary.
2Ke ke ongoʻi ʻae leʻo ʻo ʻeku lotu tāumaʻu, ʻo kau ka tangi kiate koe, ʻo kau ka hiki hake hoku nima ki ho folofolaʻanga māʻoniʻoni.
3Do not drag me away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbors while malice is in their hearts.
3ʻOua naʻa ke toho au mo e kau angahala, pea mo kinautolu ʻoku fai kovi, ʻakinautolu ʻoku lea mālie ki honau kaungāʻapi, ka ʻoku ʻi honau loto ʻae kovi.
4Repay them according to their deeds and for their works of evil. Repay them for what their hands have done; bring back on them what they deserve.
4Te ke tuku kiate kinautolu ʻo hangē ko ʻenau ngāue, ʻo fakatatau ki he kovi ʻo ʻenau ngaahi faianga: ʻatu kiate kinautolu ʻo hangē ko e ngāue ʻa honau nima; ʻange kiate kinautolu honau ʻinanga.
5Since they show no regard for the works of the LORD or what His hands have done, He will tear them down and never rebuild them.
5Ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau taʻetokanga ki he ngaahi ngāue ʻa Sihova, mo e ngāue ʻa hono nima, te ne fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu, pea ʻe ʻikai langa hake ʻakinautolu.
6Blessed be the LORD, for He has heard my cry for mercy.
6Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene ongoʻi ʻae leʻo ʻo ʻeku lotu tāumaʻu.
7The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart rejoices, and I give thanks to Him with my song.
7Ko hoku mālohi mo hoku fakaū ʻa Sihova; naʻe falala kiate ia hoku loto, pea kuo tokoniʻi au: ko ia ʻoku fiefia lahi ai hoku loto; pea ʻi heʻeku hiva te u fakafetaʻi kiate ia.
8The LORD is the strength of His people, a stronghold of salvation for His anointed.
8Ko e mālohi ʻa Sihova kiate kinautolu, pea ko e mālohi fakamoʻui ia ʻo ʻene pani.
9Save Your people and bless Your inheritance; shepherd them and carry them forever.
9Ke ke fakamoʻui hoʻo kakai, mo tāpuaki ho tofiʻa: tauhi ʻakinautolu foki, pea hiki hake ʻakinautolu ke taʻengata.
