Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1Unto the end, for them that shall be changed; for David.
1Ke tuʻu hake ʻae ʻOtua, tuku ke veteki hono ngaahi fili: tuku ke puna foki mei hono ʻao ʻakinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate ia.
2SAVE me, O God: for the waters are come in even unto my soul.
2Hangē ko e vilingia ʻo mole ʻae kohu, ke pehē pe hono vilingia ʻakinautolu: hangē ko e pulu ʻoku vela ʻo vai ʻi he afi, ke ʻauha pehē pe ʻae kau angahala ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.
3I stick fast in the mire of the deep: and there is no sure standing. I am come into the depth of the sea: and a tempest hath overwhelmed me.
3Ka ʻe tuku ke fiefia ʻae māʻoniʻoni; ke nekeneka ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua: ʻIo, ke fiefia lahi ʻaupito ʻakinautolu.
4I have laboured with crying; my jaws are become hoarse: my eyes have failed, whilst I hope in my God.
4Hiva ki he ʻOtua, hiva fakamālō ki hono huafa: fakaongoongolelei ia ʻoku hāʻele ʻi he ngaahi toafa ʻi hono huafa ko SIHOVA, pea fiefia ʻi hono ʻao.
5They are multiplied above the hairs of my head, who hate me without cause. My enemies are grown strong who have wrongfully persecuted me: then did I pay that which I took not away.
5Ko e tamai ʻae ʻOtua ki he tamai mate, mo e fakamaau ia ʻi hono ʻafioʻanga māʻoniʻoni, ki he kau fefine kuo mate honau husepāniti.
6O God, thou knowest my foolishness; and my offences are not hidden from thee:
6ʻOku ʻai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae kau paea ʻi he ngaahi fale: ʻoku ne ʻomi kituʻa ʻakinautolu kuo haʻi ʻaki ʻae ukamea fihifihi: ka ʻoku nofo ʻae kau angatuʻu ʻi he fonua mōmoa.
7Let not them be ashamed for me, who look for thee, O Lord, the Lord of hosts. Let them not be confounded on my account, who seek thee, O God of Israel.
7ʻE ʻOtua, ʻi hoʻo muʻomuʻa atu ki ho kakai, ʻi hoʻo hāʻele ʻi he toafa; Sila.
8Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.
8Naʻe ngalulu ʻa māmani, pea ngangana mo e ngaahi langi foki ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua: ʻio, naʻe ngaueue ʻa Sainai ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
9I am become a stranger to my brethren, and an alien to the sons of my mother.
9ʻE ʻOtua, naʻa ke tuku hifo ʻae ʻuha lahi, ʻaia naʻa ke fakamālohi ʻaki ho tofiʻa, ʻi heʻene vaivai.
10For the zeal of thy house hath eaten me up: and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.
10Naʻe nofo ki ai ʻa ho kakai: ʻE ʻOtua, kuo ke tokonaki ʻi hoʻo angalelei ki he masiva.
11And I covered my soul in fasting: and it was made a reproach to me.
11Naʻe foaki mai ʻe he ʻEiki ʻae folofola pea naʻe tokolahi ʻakinautolu naʻe fakahā ia.
12And I made haircloth my garment: and I became a byword to them.
12“Naʻe hola vave ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻoe kautau:” pea naʻe tufa ʻae vete ʻe he fefine naʻe nofo ʻo leʻo.
13They that sat in the gate spoke against me: and they that drank wine made me their song.
13Neongo hoʻomou nofo ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi kulo, ka temou hangē ko e kapakau ʻoe lupe ʻoku ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻae siliva, mo hono fulufulu ko e koula melomelo.
14But as for me, my prayer is to thee, O Lord; for the time of thy good pleasure, O God. In the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation.
14ʻI he veteki ʻi ai ʻe he Māfimafi ʻae ngaahi tuʻi, naʻe hinehina ia ʻo hangē ko e ʻuha hinehina ʻi Salimoni.
15Draw me out of the mire, that I may not stick fast: deliver me from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
15Ko e moʻunga ʻoe ʻOtua ʻoku hangē ko e moʻunga ko Pesani; ko e moʻunga māʻolunga ʻo hangē ko e moʻunga ko Pesani,
16Let not the tempest of water drown me, nor the deep swallow me up: and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
16Ko e hā ʻoku mou hopohopo ai, ʻakimoutolu ko e ngaahi moʻunga māʻolunga? Ko e moʻunga eni ʻoku fili ʻe he ʻOtua ke nofo ki ai; ʻio, ʻe nofo ki ai ʻa Sihova ʻo taʻengata.
17Hear me, O Lord, for thy mercy is kind; look upon me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
17Ko e ngaahi saliote ʻae ʻOtua ʻoku ua mano, ʻio, ko e ngaahi toko afe ʻoe ʻāngelo: ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻae ʻEiki, ʻio, ʻo hangē ko ʻene ʻi Sainai, ʻi he potu māʻoniʻoni.
18And turn not away thy face from thy servant: for I am in trouble, hear me speedily.
18Kuo ke hāʻele hake ki ʻolunga, kuo u angatuʻu foki, koeʻuhi ke nofo kiate kinautolu ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua.
19Attend to my soul, and deliver it: save me because of my enemies.
19Fakafetaʻi ki he ʻEiki, ʻaia ʻoku ne hili kiate kitautolu ʻae kavenga ʻoe meʻa lelei ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, ʻio, ko e ʻOtua ʻo hotau fakamoʻui. Sila.
20Thou knowest my reproach, and my confusion, and my shame.
20Ko ia, ko hotau ʻOtua ko e ʻOtua ia ʻoe fakamoʻui; pea ʻoku ʻia Sihova ko e ʻEiki ʻae moʻui mei he mate.
21In thy sight are all they that afflict me; my heart hath expected reproach and misery. And I looked for one that would grieve together with me, but there was none: and for one that would comfort me, and I found none.
21Ka ʻe taaʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ʻulu ʻo hono ngaahi fili, mo e tumuʻaki fulufulu ʻo ia ʻoku ʻalu pē ʻi heʻene ngaahi talangataʻa.
22And they gave me gall for my food, and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
22Naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, “Te u toe ʻomi mei Pesani, te u toe ʻomi hoku kakai mei he loloto ʻo e ngaahi tahi.
23Let their table become as a snare before them, and a recompense, and a stumblingblock.
23Koeʻuhi ke kulokula ho vaʻe ʻi he toto ʻo ho ngaahi fili, pea mo e ʻelelo ʻo hoʻo fanga kulī ʻi ai.”
24Let their eyes be darkened that they see not; and their back bend thou down always.
24Kuo nau mamata ki ho ngaahi hāʻeleʻanga, ʻE ʻOtua; ʻio, ko e ngaahi hāʻeleʻanga ʻo hoku ʻOtua, mo hoku Tuʻi, ʻi he faletapu.
25Pour out thy indignation upon them: and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.
25ʻOku muʻomuʻa ʻae kau hiva, pea hoko mo e kau pulotu tā mālie ʻoe ngaahi meʻa faiva; pea ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻae kau taʻahine ʻoku tā ʻae lali iiki.
26Let their habitation be made desolate: and let there be none to dwell in their tabernacles.
26“Mou fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua ʻi he ngaahi fakataha, ʻio, ki he ʻEiki, ʻakimoutolu mei he matavai ʻo ʻIsileli.”
27Because they have persecuted him whom thou hast smitten; and they have added to the grief of my wounds.
27ʻOku ʻi ai ʻa Penisimani siʻi mo honau pule, ʻae houʻeiki ʻo Siuta mo ʻenau fakataha, mo e houʻeiki ʻo Sepuloni, pea mo e houʻeiki ʻo Nafitali.
28Add thou iniquity upon their iniquity: and let them not come into thy justice.
28Ko ho ʻOtua kuo ne tuʻutuʻuni ho mālohi: ke ke fakamālohi, ʻE ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ke fai kiate kimautolu.
29Let them be blotted out of the book of the living; and with the just let them not be written.
29Ko e meʻa ʻi ho faletapu ʻi Selūsalema, ʻe ʻomi ai ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi ʻae ngaahi meʻaʻofa kiate koe.
30But I am poor and sorrowful: thy salvation, O God, hath set me up.
30Ke ke tautea ʻae fanga manu ʻoe vao kaho, ʻae fuʻu tokolahi ʻoe fanga pulu tangata, mo e ngaahi ʻuhikiʻi pulu ʻoe kakai, ke ʻoua kenau fakavaivai ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae ngaahi konga siliva: ke ke veteki ʻae kakai ʻoku manako ki he tau.
31I will praise the name of God with a canticle: and I will magnify him with praise.
31ʻE haʻu ʻae ngaahi houʻeiki mei ʻIsipite; ʻe mafao vave atu ʻae nima ʻo ʻItiopea ki he ʻOtua.
32And it shall please God better than a young calf, that bringeth forth horns and hoofs.
32ʻAe ngaahi puleʻanga ʻo māmani, mou hiva ki he ʻOtua; hiva ʻaki ʻae fakamālō ki he ʻEiki: Sila.
33Let the poor see and rejoice: seek ye God, and your soul shall live.
33Kiate ia ʻoku heka ki he langi ʻoe ngaahi langi, ʻaia naʻe ʻi muʻa pe; vakai, ʻoku ne fakaongo atu hono leʻo, pea ko e leʻo māfimafi ia.
34For the Lord hath heard the poor: and hath not despised his prisoners.
34Mou tuku ki he ʻOtua ʻae mālohi: ʻoku ʻi ʻolunga ʻi ʻIsileli ʻa hono nāunau, mo ʻene māfimafi ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi langi.
35Let the heavens and the earth praise him; the sea, and every thing that creepeth therein.
35ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoku fakamanavahē ko e ʻituʻa ʻi ho ngaahi faletapu: ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ko ia ʻoku ne foaki ʻae mālohi mo e faʻa fai ki hono kakai. Fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua.
36For God will save Sion, and the cities of Juda shall be built up. And they shall dwell there, and acquire it by inheritance.
