Psalms 54
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1(54-1) For the Leader; with string-music. Maschil of David: (54-2) when the Ziphites came and said to Saul: 'Doth not David hide himself with us?' (54-3) O God, save me by Thy name, and right me by Thy might.
1Fakamoʻui au, ʻE ʻOtua, ʻi ho huafa, mo ke fakamaau au ʻi ho mālohi.
2(54-4) O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth.
2Fanongo mai ki heʻeku lotu, ʻE ʻOtua fakafanongo ki he ngaahi lea ʻa hoku ngutu.
3(54-5) For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul; they have not set God before them. Selah
3He kuo tuʻu hake kiate au ʻae kau muli, pea ʻoku kumi hoku laumālie ʻe he kau fakamālohi: ʻoku ʻikai te nau fokotuʻu ʻae ʻOtua ʻi honau ʻao. Sila.
4(54-6) Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is for me as the upholder of my soul.
4Vakai, ko hoku tokoni ʻae ʻOtua: ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku poupou hoku laumālie ʻae ʻEiki.
5(54-7) He will requite the evil unto them that lie in wait for me; destroy Thou them in Thy truth.
5ʻE totongi ʻe ia ʻaki ʻae kovi ki hoku ngaahi fili: ke ke motuhi ʻakinautolu ʻi ho moʻoni.
6(54-8) With a freewill-offering will I sacrifice unto Thee; I will give thanks unto Thy name, O LORD, for it is good.
6Te u ʻatu fiemālie pē ʻae feilaulau kiate koe: te u fakamālō ki ho huafa, ʻE Sihova he ʻoku lelei ia.
7(54-9) For He hath delivered me out of all trouble; and mine eye hath gazed upon mine enemies.
7He kuo ne fakamoʻui au mei he mamahi kotoa pē: pea kuo mamata ʻe hoku mata ki hoku ngaahi fili.
