Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Why have the Gentiles raged, and the people devised vain things?
1Ko e hā ʻoku matalili ai ʻae hiteni? Pea fakalaulauloto ʻae kakai ki he meʻa noa pē?
2The kings of the earth stood up, and the princes met together, against the Lord and against his Christ.
2ʻOku tuʻu hake fakataha ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani, pea fakakaukau fakataha ʻae kau pule kia Sihova mo ia kuo ne pani, ʻo pehē,
3Let us break their bonds asunder: and let us cast away their yoke from us.
3“Ke tau motuhi ʻena ngaahi haʻi pea liʻaki ʻena ngaahi afo ʻiate kitautolu.”
4He that dwelleth in heaven shall laugh at them: and the Lord shall deride them.
4Ko ia ʻoku nofo ʻi he ngaahi langi ʻe kata ia: ʻe manuki ʻa Sihova kiate kinautolu.
5Then shall he speak to them in his anger, and trouble them in his rage.
5Pea te ne toki folofola kiate kinautolu ʻi hono houhau, pea fakamamahiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi hono tuputāmaki lahi.
6But I am appointed king by him over Sion his holy mountain, preaching his commandment.
6Ka kuo u fakanofo ʻeku tuʻi ki Saione, ko e moʻunga ʻo ʻeku māʻoniʻoni.
7The Lord hath said to me: Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee.
7“Te u fakahā ʻae tuʻutuʻuni:” naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “Ko hoku ʻAlo koe kuo u fakatupu koe ʻi he ʻaho ni.
8Ask of me, and I will give thee the Gentiles for thy inheritance, and the utmost parts of the earth for thy possession.
8Ke ke lea kiate au, pea te u foaki ʻae ngaahi hiteni ko ho tofiʻa, mo e ngaahi ngataʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani moʻou.
9Thou shalt rule them with a rod of iron, and shalt break them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.
9Te ke maumauʻi ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae vaʻa ukamea; pea te ke laiki ke lailai ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e ipu ʻumea.
10And now, O ye kings, understand: receive instruction, you that judge the earth.
10Pea ko eni, ke poto ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi tuʻi: pea maʻu ʻae akonaki ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau fakamaau ʻo māmani.
11Serve ye the Lord with fear: and rejoice unto him with trembling.
11Tauhi ʻa Sihova ʻi he manavahē, pea fiefia ʻi he tetetete.
12Embrace discipline, lest at any time the Lord be angry, and you perish from the just way.
12ʻUma ki he ʻAlo, telia naʻa houhau ia, pea te mou ʻauha mei he hala, ʻoka tupu siʻi pe hono houhau. ʻOku monūʻia ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku falala kiate ia.
13When his wrath shall be kindled in a short time, blessed are all they that trust in him.
