Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Unless the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it. Unless the Lord keep the city, he watcheth in vain that keepeth it.
1ʻI he toe liliu ʻe Sihova ʻae pōpula ʻo Saione, naʻa tau tatau mo kinautolu ʻoku misi.
2It is vain for you to rise before light, rise ye after you have sitten, you that eat the bread of sorrow. When he shall give sleep to his beloved,
2Pea naʻe toki fakapito ʻaki hotau ngutu ʻae kata, mo hotau ʻelelo ʻi he hiva: pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe he hiteni, “Kuo fai ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi maʻanautolu.”
3Behold the inheritance of the Lord are children: the reward, the fruit of the womb.
3Kuo fai ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi maʻatautolu; pea ʻoku tau fiefia ai.
4As arrows in the hand of the mighty, so the children of them that have been shaken.
4ʻE Sihova, ke ke toe liliu ʻemau pōpula, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi vaitafe ʻi he feituʻu tonga.
5Blessed is the man that hath filled the desire with them; he shall not be confounded when he shall speak to his enemies in the gate.
5Ko kinautolu ʻoku tūtuuʻi ʻi he loʻimata te nau tuʻusi ʻi he fiefia.
no verse 6 in this text
6Ko ia ʻoku ne ʻalu atu ʻo tangi, pea ʻave ʻae tenga mahuʻinga, te ne toe haʻu ʻi he fiefia, mo ʻomi ʻene ngaahi ū uite fakataha mo ia.
