Psalms 25
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1A Psalm of David. Unto Thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.
1ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ou hiki hake hoku laumālie kiate koe.
2O my God, in Thee have I trusted, let me not be ashamed; let not mine enemies triumph over me.
2ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ʻoku ou falala kiate koe: ʻoua naʻa ke tuku au ke u mā, pea ʻoua naʻa fiefia hoku ngaahi fili ʻiate au.
3Yea, none that wait for Thee shall be ashamed; they shall be ashamed that deal treacherously without cause.
3ʻIo, ke ʻoua naʻa mā ha tokotaha ʻoku tatali kiate koe: tuku ke mā ʻakinautolu ʻoku fai angahala ko e pauʻu pē.
4Show me Thy ways, O LORD; teach me Thy paths.
4Fakahā kiate au, ʻE Sihova, ho ngaahi hala; ako kiate au ho ngaahi hāʻeleʻanga.
5Guide me in Thy truth, and teach me; for Thou art the God of my salvation; for Thee do I wait all the day.
5Tataki au ʻi hoʻo moʻoni, mo akonakiʻi au: he ko koe ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku moʻui, ʻoku ou tatali kiate koe ʻi he ʻaho kotoa.
6Remember, O LORD, Thy compassions and Thy mercies; for they have been from of old.
6ʻE Sihova, ke ke manatu ki hoʻo ngaahi ʻaloʻofa mo hoʻo ʻofa mataʻatā pe; he ʻoku talu mei muʻa ia.
7Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; according to Thy mercy remember Thou me, for Thy goodness' sake, O LORD.
7ʻOua naʻa ke manatuʻi ʻae ngaahi angahala ʻi heʻeku kei siʻi, mo ʻeku ngaahi talangataʻa: ka ke manatu kiate au, ʻE Sihova, ʻo fakatatau ki hoʻo ʻaloʻofa koeʻuhi ko hoʻo angalelei.
8Good and upright is the LORD; therefore doth He instruct sinners in the way.
8ʻOku angalelei mo angatonu ʻa Sihova, ko ia te ne akonakiʻi ai ʻae kau angahala ʻi he hala.
9He guideth The humble in justice; and He teacheth the humble His way.
9Te ne tataki ʻae angamalū ʻi he fakamaau: te ne ako hono hala ki he angavaivai.
10All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep His covenant and His testimonies.
10Ko e ngaahi hala kotoa pē ʻo Sihova ko e ʻaloʻofa mo e moʻoni kiate kinautolu ʻoku tauhi ʻene fuakava mo ʻene ngaahi fakamoʻoni.
11For Thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity, for it is great.
11ʻE Sihova, ko e meʻa ʻi ho huafa, ke ke fakamolemole ʻeku hia; he ʻoku lahi ia.
12What man is he that feareth the LORD? him will He instruct in the way that He should choose.
12Ko hai ʻae tangata ʻoku manavahē kia Sihova? Te ne akonakiʻi ia ʻi he hala te ne fili.
13His soul shall abide in prosperity; and his seed shall inherit the land.
13ʻE nofomaʻu hono laumālie ʻi he lelei; pea ʻe maʻu ʻe hono hako ʻae fonua.
14The counsel of the LORD is with them that fear Him; and His covenant, to make them know it.
14Ko e finangalo fufū ʻo Sihova ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku manavahē kiate ia; pea te ne fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻene fuakava.
15Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for He will bring forth my feet out of the net.
15ʻOku hanga atu maʻuaipē hoku mata kia Sihova, he ko ia te ne toʻo hoku vaʻe mei he kupenga.
16Turn Thee unto me, and be gracious unto me; for I am solitary and afflicted.
16Ke ke fofonga mai kiate au, mo ke ʻaloʻofa kiate au; he ʻoku ou paea mo mamahi.
17The troubles of my heart are enlarged; O bring Thou me out of my distresses.
17Kuo tupu ʻo lahi ʻae ngaahi mamahi ʻo hoku loto; ke ke ʻomi au mei heʻeku ngaahi mamahi.
18See mine affliction and my travail; and forgive all my sins.
18Ke ke ʻafio ki hoku mahaki mo ʻeku mamahi; pea fakamolemole ʻeku angahala kotoa pē.
19Consider how many are mine enemies, and the cruel hatred wherewith they hate me.
19ʻAfio ki hoku ngaahi fili; he ʻoku nau tokolahi; pea ʻoku nau fehiʻa kiate au ʻi he fehiʻa lahi.
20O keep my soul, and deliver me; let me not be ashamed, for I have taken refuge in Thee.
20Ke ke tauhi hoku laumālie, mo fakamoʻui au: ʻoua naʻa ke tuku au ke u mā; he ʻoku ou falala kiate koe.
21Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, because I wait for Thee.
21Ke fakamoʻui au ʻe he haohaoa mo e angatonu; he ʻoku ou tatali kiate koe.
22Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
22ʻE ʻOtua, ke ke huhuʻi ʻa ʻIsileli mei heʻene ngaahi mamahi kotoa pē.
